1. Macarons

I think the one defining moment of my time spent in Paris was eating macarons. Sure, the city was breathtaking, sure it’s the birth place of fashion, but for me, it was all about the macarons. Visiting LaDuree was the highlight. My mouth has never exploded into a million pieces when I have eaten something before, and it happened with each and every colorful little macaron. Ever since, I have been dying to find a French bakery in Miami that can replicate that beautiful feeling. Any recs, local readers?

1. Fringe Leather Necklace

Oh the color! Oh the sassy! I love everything about this fun fringed necklace from Etsy seller, BooandBooFactory! With all these serious pops of color being seen over and over again in fashion, I think this would be a novel way to rock the trend.

1. PrettyPegs

I’m pretty sure if my furniture could speak, they would want new shoes. Confused? These pegs fit on most IKEA furniture and bring a little bit of flair, fun and youth to your pieces. Being a strong IKEA supporter, I would kind of love to have some for our soon to be new coffee table. After all, who am I to deny those I love a few new shoes.

1. Boston Terrier Pops

If there’s one thing I cannot deny, it’s my love of Boston Terriers. I can’t imagine saying no to a cake pop in their image. Could you? Highly doubtful. Although I’ve heard cake pops are horrifically difficult to make, I’d give these a go just based on the cuteness factor.
