Beach vacations. Pool time. Swimsuits and ice cream. Long days, short nights, sunshine, warm weather, and  holidays. Dresses, bare feet, hats and smile! Is it any wonder that we associate the summer months with feeling happy and carefree?

When the sun is shining I can do anything; no mountain is too high, no trouble too difficult to overcome.

"Summertime. It was a song. It was a season. I wondered if that season would ever live inside me."

Benjamin Alire Sáenz

"You are so much sunshine in every square inch."

Walt Whitman

"Keep your face to the sunshine and you will never see the shadows."

Helen Keller

The lavender plant belongs to the mint family, a flowering plant with a sweet floral fragrance.

Did you know that the lavender name was derived from the Latin word 'lavare', which means 'wash'? Lavender was also used as a holy herb in ancient times!

Lavender was a bath additive in regions like Persia, Rome, and Ancient Greece. These cultures used to believe that lavender helped to  purify the body and mind. It was also used in the preparation of tea for a soothing effect. Since ancient times, lavender has been extensively used to treat different ailments, including insomnia, headaches and skin problems.

 Lavender flowers symbolize spirituality, purity, silence, love, grace, serenity and calmness, also it symbolize love and romance.

I loved the time I spent in Lavender Fields working on this style editorial.
