By the Lake

10.13.10
Last weekend Scott and I took a walk along Tempe Town Lake. For all of you who don’t live in the Phoenix Metropolitan area, Tempe Town Lake is a manmade lake is held together by a dam. Back in July a part of the dam broke, and thus the lake went bye, bye.
On the very same day that we went for our walk, the city of Tempe started re-filling the lake (they recently fixed the part of the dam that broke). It was kind of neat seeing the water being pushed back into the lake, and to slowly start to see it come back to life.
While there Scott also shot a few outfit photos for me (he’s such a great guy).
Sunglasses: Ray Bans
Shirt: Levi’s
Jeggings: Levi’s
Sandals: Salt Water Sandals
Socks: c/o We Love Colors
Not that long ago I received this lovely pair of maroon socks from We Love Colors, and instantly began planning on how to wear them. Well, since it is still pretty warm in Phoenix, and I didn’t want to wear them with shorts, I decided to do a fashion faux pa and wear them with my Salt Water Sandals. I actually really liked the way that they looked, and definitely want to wear them with a cute skirt and oxfords next time around.

During our walk Scott and I also spotted a fun viewfinder that we had never seen before, right by the old train tracks, and the new light rail tracks.

Do you have a lake, or a man-made lake in your town? Do you ever take a boat out on it, or go swimming in it (I would NEVER swim in Tempe Town Lake; it’s so dirty!)?
