Let's Go Shopping || Lake Life Finds - Southern State of Mind Blog by Heather

Happy Wednesday and first day of school for us! I might have to do some retail therapy today since I know I will be missing my buddies. After spending so much time at the lake, I was inspired to round up some cute “Lake Life” finds. Just looking at this fun board makes me wish we were still there!

Every Summer After Book || I read this book while we were at the lake and it was the perfect “lake read” because the entire story takes place at a lake setting and it’s a light and easy read.

Sun Hat (with strap) || I wore my similar straw hat so much while we were at the lake (and at the beach this summer)- but they key is to have the strap so it doesn’t fly away!

Belt Bag || We did lots of hiking while in Cashiers and I loved my belt bag to hold my wallet, phone and keys. I also would bring it when we were running around town and didn’t have to worry about my big travel purse.

Lake Pillow || Just too cute!

Dough Bowl || Such a perfect piece to have as a centerpiece to hold various things all year- limes, dried hydrangeas…

Hydrangea Tumbler || Coffee just tastes better when you are on vacation, right? I just love this pretty hydrangea coffee tumbler

Candle || This candle just sounds so yummy. There was something about being up in that cooler weather that had be craving candles!

Striped Towels || I bought this six pack for the boys to use while at overnight camp and they proved to come in handy all summer. They are not bulky so pack well and dry faster. I don’t love the texture of microfiber towels, but for practical purposes they are perfect.

Sandals || I wore my similar slides all summer and I have my eye on these. Love the color, the price and all of the positive reviews!

Puff Sleeve Sweater || I was thankful that I packed a lightweight neutral sweater because I ended up wearing it most nights. It was cooler up in Cashiers, NC and if you know the area then you know it’s rainy as well. This puff sleeve sweater looks adorable!

Jeans || I also packed some comfy jeans and wore them tons too. These are best sellers over at Madewell with lots of good reviews.

Cozy Blanket || Don’t think I’m crazy, but we actually packed a couple cozy blankets for our trip since I wasn’t sure the house we were in would have them. Turns out we used them nightly.

Door Mat || Ha! If we aren’t here, we are out on the boat! 🙂

Pajamas || These pajamas are loved by all that have them, and they are made by LAKE- so they were the perfect pair to include here.

Lake Life Tote Bag || The cutest boat tote for lake life. This would be such a cute hostess gift too.

Fish Prints || I would definitely have a set of something like this if we had a lake house.
