A few summers ago, once school ended Chris referred to me many times as "Summer Katie."
Implying that in the summer I am a different person.
At first I was offended, thinking he must think (and then make others think) that I am unhappy, crabby and not as fun during the school year.
Then I was honest with myself. Let's be real here.
Who wouldn't be more relaxed, enjoyable and more fun to be around when they aren't working?
I'm pretty sure I am.
Well with today being the last day of school hello Summer Katie!

Oohhh Summer Katie, I'm jealous :) My mom is an assistant Pre-K teacher, so I get real jealous during the Summer, ha! Love your outfit! You wear the maxi so well!
Hahaaaaa, all my friends say that there is "school Carly" and "summer Carly".....it's an occupational hazard I think!
Hope you are doing something fun tonight to celebrate!
Congrats on your last day of school. Love your maxi!
I am very jealous Summer Katie. I should have gone to school to teach, hehe.
Loving your sandals!
Yay for Summer Katie!!!! Wahoo for school being out!
Hello Summer Katie! Can't wait to see what even more awesome things you might have in store this summer. Love the outfit! I've been dying for a maxi dress, but can never find the perfect fit!
That maxi is cute!! I just went to T.J. Maxx today and my mom and I found not sandals, but some really cute dresses! So excited!
Yay Summer Katie! Love the maxi dress!
Hey there Summer Katie! You look beautiful in that dress and I love the shoes :)

When I was in school, Jim used to talk about Summer Lauren too : ) I am feeling a little jealous of your summer break right now, but so happy that you get to relax and take a break! And now we can talk during the day!,
Great post! Love this outfit.
Now following you, Hope you'll follow back!(:
If today is your last day, do you start back in late August? I remember getting out of school mid May. (But this has been 15 years ago...I'm probably not remembering correctly.) I love the necklace by the way. I always forget about World Market for jewelry options.

That is so funny - I think I would totally be the same way, but alas I work year-round. I do get to leave my work at work though. At 5 o'clock I'm done and I like it that way!
I have a similar dress - it's first maxi dress I've bought and I don't know why because they are SO comfy! I also always forget that World Market has such cool jewelry. Love that necklace!
I love that necklace!! You look soo adorable sooooo often!!!
I definitely have a "summer sam" alter ego and I cannot wait to let it out. Three more days of school until I can be happy, carefree summer sam!
Glad to hear it's not just me!
