What have I been doing recently? Oh you know giving interviews over coffee. Check it out! Hanging out on branded double decker buses with the team at Forever 21 and the gorgeous Shareen of Vintage Mavens. Eating copious amounts of Shake Shack. I was a bad influence with that one too creating myself a partner in crime from the F21 team. Don’t judge us! Celebrating the Grand Opening of the new Lincoln Road store on Miami Beach with fellow babes, Steffy & Amanda. Browsing the store with my giveaway winner and chatting about what looks best for different body types. Shooting a streetstyle….ya know bloggity blog stuff.

Cher & Dionne Take Miami

So I have to give Cher Lily and myself serious snaps for pulling our costumes togegther. If you don’t know who we are (AS IF!) haul ass to your URL bar and get into Clueless on Netflix. This is gonna be one of those instagram posts but whatever. We had so fun at the Soho Beach House party, it was totally ragin’.

I meannnnn, an actual Snow Leopard made the guest list.

Major props to whoever was in charge of decorating the party, setting up the theme and hiring the Lyra/aerial hoop folks out by the pool.Way cool.

There certainly wasn’t a babe shortage and these “gold medal” Baldwins asked for a photo op so we obliged of course and then asked for one from them too. 

We ended the night somewhere around 8 am…yeah…like I said before ragin. Anyway hope you’re having a wonderful Halloween as well, I’m totally outie. 

Nothin’ But A Good Time

I was invited this week to The Arsht Center in Miami to check out the broadway hit Rock of Ages! They’re currently on a US tour and are in Miami until the 14th. I definitely urge you to go check this musical out. It was so much fun, a definite party. The story was engaging, you already know all the songs, the audience interaction was choice. Some of the voices were from another world basically, so powerful. I think it’s a really fun show for adults to check out. I went with my friend Erika and we basically couldn’t stop laughing at all the jokes. You absolutely will not be disappointed, unless you’re a grump haha.

I picked out my outfit last minute (and shot these photos running out the door) and I think it really worked out since I was dressed up but still sort of “rock” to fit the theme of the show. I’ve had this skirt sitting on my rack for awhile, I’ve only worn it once though I really like it. I picked it up from Ideeli last year around this time actually. It was about $54, the one I linked above that looks JUST like it, is only $26. Grr. What do you guys think of my braids, now that you can see them really clearly? I’m on my way to my Halloween dream.

Stay tuned for the my next Halloween change. ^^

A Breath of Fresh Air

About 2 weeks ago I was tucked away at the Eden Roc Renaissance’s Elle Spa for a little bloggers relaxation day. I’m already thinking of my next visit. It has such a warm, inviting, and homey vibe. I immediately parked myself in front of the windows overlooking the wate and everyone else followed suit. Aside from being right in front of the fireplace, it’s clearly the choice spot.

I love the Plant the Future decor at the spa. Sidenote, they make Munny’s and robot figures like this, how cool right. I love the Elle magazines everywhere, a given of course. From the fitness center, to the gift shop they’re conveniently placed for your pleasure and complimentary of course. A big mantra from the massage and facial experts was for me to drink lots of water and I don’t think I’ve ever been more hydrated in my entire life. There was always someone to make sure I was getting plenty of the good stuff.

I received the Elle Spa Signature Facial which is their “most luxurious facial experience” it was designed exclusively for Elle by famed beauty expert Tammy Fender (who also sat with us later on in the day for a incredibly informative chat). I got to pick the essential oils used during the session, the foot reflexology was so good I fell asleep, and the facial itself was choice. I see why it’s the best of the best. I also did the Flash Glow which I expected to just be a exfoliating body scrub but my massage expert noticed some tension in my shoulders and neck (thanks blogging) and really got in there and worked that out too. Going the extra mile to work on a problem area always seals the deal for me.

Amanda and I wrapped up the day braving the plunge pool which is apparently really good for you but a little more than I can handle. I’m a baby. It does refresh the heck out of you though. Then we headed back up to the Spa Terrace where we’d all had lunch in the private cabanas (they have tv’s!!) to chat, lay out and have exotic mimosa’s. Our bartender was the BEST!

This visit was complimentary courtesy of Elle Spa, all opinions are still my own.

You Fit Me Better

Allow me to travel back several months, I’m talking earlier in the year here. I have so many photos in my “blog” folder that I just haven’t gotten around to posting because other things come up etc. I really do love this sweater though, so I thought I’d make a point to get this one out there. I wore this to a tweetup event I hosted with 3 other Miami fashion bloggers, at Guy and Girl Boutique in the Shelborne Hotel. We each had to style a mannequin with pieces from the boutique, photograph the look and put it out there on twitter. The look with the most retweets won. My look ended up winning so I was pretty happy! One of the lucky retweeters actually won my look, lucky ducks. So jelly. I mean who doesn’t want a pair of Tom Ford sunglasses for nada.

I’m happy as a clam with my winning look. Ahhh I can still see the blue tinges in my hair. Man I miss having color in my hair. I decided for the first time to go without and I get the itch here and there but for now I’ve been content without it.
