What I Wore: Reset

Sometimes things happen, and they just don’t make any sense. You spend many days and nights reeling, trying to understand why or trying to label it with some sort of significance because there has to be a bigger picture to all this, right? That, in a nutshell, is what has been swimming around in my head for the past week. You would think an outfit post would be the last thing on my mind, but (with the help and gentle nudging of the hubs) I want to try not to push away things that make me happy or are part of my normal routine. My smile may be a little forced, and my glitter a little dull, but I strongly believe I will make it through this very tough time.

What I Wore: Baby Shower

2014 has been the year of the baby in my circle of friends. Almost all my buddies are expecting, so it’s been a lot of fun to be part of their journeys. This, of course, means parties (& fun party dresses)! Just this past weekend, I had a baby shower for my awesome friend, Jackie. She is a Crossfit hottie that manages to still look amazing with bump in tow. Superior genetics if you ask me! I am very excited to meet her daughter, Stella Rose, come April – I know she is going to be one cool cat.

I am really digging Love Juliet – they are my newest partnership and are based right here in Miami! Definitely check them out and their beautiful jewelry (& instagram!). It’s fun, colorful and affordable – what’s not to adore? My earrings were the perfect pop of color for my neutral outfit, and were very comfortable. I only made one mistake: wearing my hair down! These pretties are made to be the center of attention!

What I Wore: Holiday Glitz

It’s the perfect time of year to throw on some shiny goodness without apologies. This, of course, means I take it a few steps further by not only wearing glitz, but pairing it with loud prints. In other words, sorry, I’m not sorry.

What I Wore: Art Basel

So this past week was Art Basel in Miami, which is a huge art event that has really put us on the map as a cultural center. Despite the headache of increased traffic and an overabundance of obnoxious tourists, it’s always a fun time of year. That may be hard to read on my face on these photos, but I was recovering from a little claustrophobia spell after walking around Context Miami for an hour or so. It doesn’t happen often, but when that crazy anxiety hits, it’s not pretty. I was more than happy to breathe in a little fresh air. Does this mean I’m getting old?

What I Wore: Thanksgiving Dinner

It was in the high 60’s this Thanksgiving evening, so this means everyone in Miami dug out their jackets, tights and in my case, turtlenecks. It will be one of the few times we will be able to showcase any of our warmer duds so we have to take advantage! I hope you guys had a fantastic Thanksgiving with your family – I know we did! Even better was that my amazing family remembered to make 90% of the meal gluten free. So sweet & thoughtful. My heart and tummy was very happy.

I always want to include my pups in these posts, but they never cooperate (embarrassing dog mommy confession). They are so horrible on leashes, but we were actually able to snap a few with my baby G. Isn’t she just so glamorous?
