Paula, your polka dot dress is just darling - a real hit with the red sweater or even a denim jacket too. The farm stand/market looked like so much fun not to mention the strawberries looked really, really delicious. Even the 'strawberries' sign itself was so cute! I'm not surprised you picked up the hydrangea cups and napkins - I feel this is in line with your signature style which I would categorize as 'classic'. Enjoy your tasty salad, bread and wine.. poolside! 😎

Thank you so very much!!! Summer is my favorite season and I’m glad you picked up on that!

[@angesews8110]

Thank you!!

Local berries, you can’t beat them they are so much more tasty. Beautiful salad.

[@relativelyrefined]

Local is always soooo good! Thanks, Judith!!

[@lindadelaiarro4081]

I also love Caprese salad. Actually ordered a Caprese sandwich on Ciabatta bread the other day at a restaurant. Delicious! Last Christmas, we took a charcuterie board and arranged the tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil (we left the leaves whole) in the shape of a candy cane. All the colors of Christmas!

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you! I absolutely love the idea of the caprese candy cane…how absolutely perfect for Christmas! And I’m absolutely going to make a caprese sandwich! Yum! Thanks for watching! XO

[@arleneg1271]

Oh that salad looked delicious. And your Basil is so lush!! Great finds at the thrift store as well. It is amazing what deals can be found if you are just in the mood to explore all the racks. One of my favorite summer recipes is Peach Ice Cream. My son who was born in the summer always asked for it for his birthday instead of a cake.

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you so much!! Peach ice cream sounds amazing and so very summer! I’d love that recipe. And happy summer birthday to your son 🎈🎂

[@arleneg1271]

@@relativelyrefined Patty I will email it to Paula....

[@paulabowen7843]

I LOVE this video - so much summer fun! That dress is darling and the perfect Fourth of July outfit! The salad looks so good - minus the tomatoes for me! LOL

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you so much!

Thanks for the golf shirt recommendations. My hubby also wears them year round.

[@relativelyrefined]

I’m so glad you found that helpful. My husband will never run out of golf shirts with the selection readily available at thrift stores

[@tammyr6669]

I loved this video! Tfs❤

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you! 🥰

[@sandraweaver1638]

I love the idea of the balsamic glaze...I will have to try that.

[@relativelyrefined]

It is so good! Definitely give it a try!

[@martivasiliades8407]

Dress looks great on you !

[@relativelyrefined]

Thank you!!

[@KatMayeux-fd5it]

Beautiful salad! We just got some amazing tomatoes from a local farm stand. You look adorable in your blue dress. How do you and your sisters stay so slender?

[@relativelyrefined]

That salad is one of my favorites! The midlife figure is always a struggle isn't it? We all try to eat healthy and stay active, but sometimes we just have to accept that we are not 25 anymore! LOL As sad as that is! :)

[@glorianelson9538]

I haven't seen any new products on your online shop. Are you not doing that anymore? Also, I love the floral throws on your porch, could you link them or tell me where did you get them? The salad looks delicious and perfect for summer!

[@relativelyrefined]

We have some new items coming soon! June was super busy for us so we took a little break from it. Paula’s next video will feature a shop update!!😊

[@MitchekMarianna]

Can’t you just stitch up the hole in the golf shirt? You can fix it and it won”t be noticeable

[@relativelyrefined]

I absolutely could . Thank you!
