Picnics are fun and they are so IN this summer. Getting a list of things to buy was daunting because I wanted my spread to be simple but also stacked.

I decided to share my grocery list because people have expressed interest in planning a picnic as well! All groceries from @traderjoes
Remember to have fun ❤️

FAQ: What type of camera do you use?
I use a Sony a7r II with a Sigma 24mm lens
____
Photography is however not 100% about the equipment. Last year, I broke my camera so I had to use my phone to take alot of my travel pictures. You would not be able to tell.
____
Photography is mainly about how well you can execute a vision. The equipment is secondary.

Outfit post from my picnic and city escape last weekend. I don’t do enough of these and I always get questions about my clothes.
____
These dresses are from @asos and I got them for about $30 each on sale. I usually wait till clothes go on sale or better still wait till stores have additional xzy% off sale prices so I am assured of the best deal before shopping.
____
Buying clothes full price is so 2013.
Jk if you have the dough then by all means. I still refuse to buy clothes full price 😭

Tips for taking pictures indoors
1. Have a vision. It makes the process faster. I look at IG & Pinterest for inspiration.
2. Always use extra lighting eg a ring light.
3. Add eye catching elements from your surroundings.
4. Use a backdrop that pops but is not too busy.
5. Use a wide angle lens
6. Last but not least, HAVE FUN!!!!
I have a sweet tooth and I am currently craving ice cream and pasteries!
Double tap if you can relate!

Word of the day: ENTANGLEMENT.
Definition: A situationship which for the most part never really amounts to anything concreate. For example, Jada Smith and August Alsina.
____
I was the Queen of entanglements while traveling full time in 2018 so I know this situation too well 😂😂
Entanglements as a full time solo traveler was something that was somewhat necessary lol!!

New opinion video on Jada & August’s entanglement is up on YouTube!

I remember when I used to be so ashamed to be in my own skin. I felt fat, would not wear a bikini and all but I grew out of that.
___
Now I can wear lingerie all day because as I got older I started appreciating my body more. No 2 bodies are made the same and I am thankful for what I have.
___
Now, I strive to exercise and make better choices vs hiding what I have and feeling insecure about it.
Enjoying the beach is one of my favorite hobbies 🌴🌴🌞🌞
____
The beaches in San Diego were PACKED. It’s almost like California forgot about covid 😅 but I distanced myself from the crowds and enjoyed the water safely.
____
Fun fact I used to be a city bum. Now I chase both city and beaches but the beach is my go to.
America’s true independence day is Juneteenth but I digress 💅🏾
I am not mad at getting Friday off though. I was supposed to be in Jamaica this weekend but covid had other plans.
____
I plan to spend the long weekend by exploring cities outside of Chicago and enjoying a picnic on a lavender field in Wisconsin.
How are you spending your long weekend?
🏝What every morning should look like 🏝
____
Beachside hotels are always a hit especially in a place like DR which is blessed with beautiful beaches!
____
They are very affordable too ($90 a night, there are several options on @bookingcom) vs paying way more in other tropical/resort locations 😖
When I visited Maldives in 2018, I paid about $500 a night for my accommodation 😖. That was an experience nonetheless because I always wanted to visit!
____
I love an extravagant accommodation but I love getting value for my money even more!
