My Summer Essentials
I adore summer. Not only does it bring my birthday, but it means lighter & breezier clothes and a more laid back attitude. Let’s face it, us Miami girls know how to do this time of year right, and I’m loving all the options this season to both have fun and act your age. I figured it had been a while since I had put together a style collage, so here you go! Two very different looks for two very different vibes: fun, flirty and spontaneous & edgy, sexy and mysterious.
Best part? I’ve constructed both looks to be extremely budget friendly! This gives you more cash in your bank account to put towards that vacation to your favorite sunny destination!
Edgy look;
F21 tank; Old Navy maxi skirt; Go Jane sandals; name plate necklace; floppy sun hat; Essie’s No More Film
Fun look;
Chevron romper; Go Jane wedges; triad necklace; chevron stackable rings; Essie’s Bachelorette Bash
Happy Hump Day: Channing Tatum
So I haven’t heard much about this guy, except that he is going to be in this movie about a bunch of really hot male strippers. I think it’s called Magic Mike? Yeah, call me crazy but I don’t think that flick is going to do very well. At all. Am I right? 😉
ps; Before everyone attempts to pierce my head with a stake, all that was sarcasm. Although I don’t plan on spending cold hard cash on it at the theater, I look forward to a future girls night when it’s on Netflix. Forecast: lots of squeeing.
What I Wore: Impromptu Getaway
Although my week had a lot of high’s, there were quite a few low’s as well. It was stressful and I was pretty sure the end was nowhere in sight, so when the light that was Friday evening strolled around, I was ready to just relax. I had mentioned on Facebook that I wanted to lay out on a beach and do nothing, but I knew that wasn’t going to be possible. I had a lot of things on my agenda for the weekend, basically leaving me no time to just sit back and relax so I decided to take things into my own hands. Sometimes what you really need to do is cancel all your plans and take an impromptu mental health day. And I did just that.
I grabbed the hubs, we piled into the Cube and we made our way down to The Florida Keys. It was a gorgeous day, and we spent it admiring the scenery, looking at boats we will never be able to afford, drinking girly drinks (yum) and eating seafood (lobster to be exact – double yum) while ocean side. It was a beautiful and perfect escape – I highly recommend doing the same every now and then. Life is too short to not sit back and enjoy it sometimes.
