What I Wore: DC

I’m baaaack! I had a fantastic time on our little vacation to visit our friend, Chris, in Richmond, which was the most adorable little city ever. I loved its vibe, and even more so loved the fact that so many restaurants were celiac friendly. I was in shock! It was a pleasant surprise. Over the weekend, we did a very quick overnight trip to DC, hoping to see some beautiful cherry blossoms and were a bit disappointed. They had not bloomed yet! However, we had the most wonderful time exploring the city instead! Everything works out in the end, huh?

With that said, I braved the elements (it was freeeeezing) to take these outfit post pictures sans coat/scarf. That’s how dedicated I am. 😉

What I Wore: Chunky Sweater

The hubs and I just can’t get enough of Bravo and all its ridiculously cheesy programming. Housewives, Matchmakers and just recently, Vanderpump Rules. It’s such a terrible trainwreck, but you cannot look away. Not even for a second. So, of course, today’s title line is an ode to the wonderfully douchey, Jax & the one thing we have in common: our love of a good chunky sweater.

What I Wore: Spring Pastels

Believe it or not, Miami has been having some pretty chilly weather. And the kicker is that it has managed to last more than one day. In fact, it’s been about a week since we got a cold front and it is still sweater weather material down here. Of course, this past weekend, things started heating up a little more so I felt compelled to pull out my most Spring-y look. This means mint pants! Gold cap toes! Sheer tops!

Too bad the day ended with my foot swelling to unbelievable proportions. C’mon, foot. Work with me. I don’t want to wear sneakers for the rest of the month.

What I Wore: Family Day

Every now and then you need a nice reset button: a day spent with family, catching up and realizing what is important in life. It also helped that it was a gorgeous day in South Florida: crisp and cool – something we don’t get to experience a whole lot of. I probably should have worn some pants, but I couldn’t resist this new striped maxi skirt – sorry guys, but I plan on wearing this every day. Deal with it. 😉

What I Wore: Animal Print & Neon

My boot is off!!!! Although I am not walking normally and it will be some time before I rock heels, I can’t tell you how free and wonderful I feel to have that 10 pound clunker off my body. And that means outfit posts are back!

Some may say that mixing animal prints and neon is just too much. I say it’s absolutely necessary. Nothing screams of pure joy and relaxation more than a Meli in a loud outfit. In fact, it’s pretty much how you can gauge my emotional state. Beware of a Meli in neutrals and instate an intervention at once.
