Summer Finds

So back a couple of weeks ago, I posted about some summer essentials that I was hoping to find while in Chicago shopping at H&M. Unfortunately, I was surprised to see that they didn’t have too many summery options (where were their shorts? fun beach hats?), I was able to score a couple. And since I promised to share with all of you upon my return, here are my recent additions to my summer wardrobe:

I found a fun and flirty bikini at…Target! I loved the color combo and the ruffles! I had been searching for an affordable ruffled bikini ever since first setting eyes on this beauty from Asos. Happy to report that it is officially my birthday bikini – 30 doesn’t look so bad in this little number!

Happy 4th!


Via; weheartit

Happy 4th of July, readers! I hope you spend it celebrating with your nearest and dearest by some body of water, enjoying some patriotic spirits (PBR sounds about right). Try not to light yourself on fire, and most importantly, have a blast! We love you, America!

Cadillac Ranch Grand Opening Party

Although CG Burgers really let me down, I am very excited about West Kendall getting another new joint: Cadillac Ranch. They tout themselves as a premier all american bar and grill offering BBQ, comfort food, cocktails…and a mechanical bull. That spells trouble – the kind I’d like to get into. And this Thursday, July 7th, I will be – and so should you! Cadillac Ranch will be hosting their grand opening party starting at 6pm with half-off cocktails (until 10pm). Even better? All money from each mechanical bull ride will go towards Autism Speaks! As if you needed extra incentive to have a go at the beast. 😉

For your free tickets, contact Joany Meurice at joany.meurice@autismspeaks.org and tell her Melificent sent you! Hope to see you there, fellow Kendallites!

Lovable Friday!

First off, happy July everyone! Its my most favorite month, as it’s my birthday! This year will be a rough one to swallow (the big 3-0), but I still like all the love and festivities that surrounds it, so…bring it on!

1. Gorgeous photo setup

It’s summer time, and that means what better backdrop than the beautiful outdoors for your next photoshoot (make sure to pack a portable fan if you are a fellow South Florida resident)? Although mother nature can be beautiful on her own, these gorgeous props featured above can only help. Seriously, who wouldn’t want to be part of this shoot? Or at least run by and steal a cupcake?

Chicago in Pictures

I could just babble about our recent trip to Chicago, but I’m sure you all tire of my mumbo jumbo every now and then. So instead, here are the highlights of our trip in photo form. I honestly wish I could take a trip like this one at least one weekend a month. It was so fun, refreshing and exciting. Let’s do it again in the near future, Chicago!
