What I Wore: 2012

January 3rd, 2012 | Posted in Fashion by Meli

What’s up, 2012!

I hope all of you rang in the new year in the best way possible – whether it was in your pj’s with a bottle glass of champagne or living it up with friends while out on the town. I started the year with this fun photoshoot courtesy of the hubs in the design district of Miami, followed by some cleansing of sorts: starting to clear out our garage and move around some stuff in the house (one of my wishes, remember?).  I keep telling myself it is the beginning of a fantastic year, even though I have already managed to be glutened and break glass.

Roxy’s Derby-licious Photo Shoot

The ideas sounded great to us – my hubs had never shot anything in these styles so he was more than psyched to give it a go. I have to say that we had the best time with Ms. GrrFeisty – she even inspired me to give derby a go (I’m looking at you, Vice City Rollers)!

What I Wore | Art Walk

Every second Saturday of the month, all the art galleries in Miami’s Design District open their doors to the public for free. I used to frequent the gallery walks years ago, but was really surprised to see this past weekend how huge the event has gotten. Food trucks line the street, amazing bands playing in every corner, free drinks and quality art. It only makes me wish there were more events like this in Miami on a regular basis! I had a great time with my friends and we are hoping to make this a monthly outing.
