polka dot overalls, please!

lately my nights have been sleepless, and my days too short. i think it may be due to my recent game of thrones addiction. usually everything fits into my schedule just fine, but now with an additional three hours of game of thrones, it is tough! i guess it’s more reason for me to catch up to the present episodes already. since miami is already…

sunny vintage saturday. ☼

i absolutely adore these boots, but they are the TOUGHEST to style. do you ever feel like certain shoes just make you look stumpy? something about the shape of them makes me feel shorter than i am, and while i adore the look of doc martens with dresses, i am always hesitant about trying it out on myself. i wanted to balance out how trendy…

when miami spring style transforms into miami summer ♥

happy happy friday from this little miami blog! i am drinking my friday morning coffee getting ready to leave for work, as i’m sure a lot of you who are reading this are doing as well. isn’t it funny how so many of us lead totally different lives, yet i am sure our routines are not so different. i think about that sometimes. everyone works.…

scallops and mints ☼☼

as cliche as it may sound (coming from 1/2 of the web) i swapped out my fall/winter wardrobe in my closet and pulled out all of my spring/summer clothes that have been stored away for a few months this week! just recently, like within the last two years, i truly learned how to organize my closet. it definitely makes no sense having giant sweaters taking…

pastel sprinkled donuts.

i must confess, t-shirts are not my favorite article of clothing to wear, and they make me feel really lazy when i wear them. until… the invention of the donut t-shirt. for a sweets obsessed maniac like myself, this one was a no brainer. with the arrival of the springtime and the florida heat, i have been pulling out all the fun colors that i…

a miami tale.

the past hour has sent this day in a downhill spiral, but i know that days like this just happen. i was exiting a parking garage in coconut grove after a lovely and relaxing hour and a half yoga class, and i was unaware that my two hour parking limit was up. the grumpy man in the parking garage told me i owed $1.50, and…

nautical ⚓⚓

if we’re going to go for a sunset ride on a sailboat, i guess i have to wear a nautical style outfit ?! 🙂 our friend works on a sailboat in key west and invited us. it was just lovely– sipping red wine as the sun went down. i am still figuring out my new haircut, but realized i can still wear a beehive! it…

a summer haircut !

cutting all of my hair off has been on my mind for a while, but i wanted to get married with long hair. on friday i made a spontaneous hair appointment and left with about ten inches of my hair gone! it feels amazing, and it is wonderful for beating the heat. i will probably add a few highlights soon, and keep it this length…

not a builder of buildings, a builder of collections.

from the second we got claude, we couldn’t resist weenie dog things. kitchen towels, envelope holders, coffee mugs (basically everything dachshund anthro released last year), kate spade weenie plates, a thrifted statue and now this pattern. i just love her so much, and i love things that make me think of her. this shirt and i, we were meant to be. do you collect anything?…

a rainy day in knee highs ♥

i drove home from work in the ugliest of thunder storms, and was sad because we planned on walking miss claudie and snapping outfit photos. instead, matt made some coffee via the coffee press and i sat on my favorite chair collection watching the rainfall. i changed into this adorable vintage inspired dress for the afternoon, which i can only wear with knee highs (or…

little duckies & new beginnings.

hello and happy 14 minutes into monday! it’s a big day for me, as it’s the first day at my new job! i read this lovely quote that said “new beginnings are often disguised as painful endings.” — change is hard, and scary but such a beautiful way to grow.  i wore this for a day of party planning and coordinating, because i threw matt…

cozy cold beach

we spent matts birthday at the beach in lahinch, a tiny surf town, because surfing is his favorite thing and surfing in ireland was one of his dreams. it was a gorgeous overcast day that was not too chilly, and i felt like being a cozy beach bum! i snagged this sweater from the GAP, and loved it so much i bought it in two…

 looking out of our window on the 4th floor in dublin as it rains outside. our trip comes to an end tomorrow, and i am going to miss this beautiful country. i hope to return someday (but also have thousands of other destinations that i still have yet to see!) this world we live in, it is an extraordinary place. i will share more photos…
