NEON FRIDAY

I love neon colors, because I absolutely love how they look against my skin tone, plus I always feel so happy wearing them, they're like a mood lifter. My husband always makes fun of me when I'm wearing neon colors, his joke is that I can never go unnoticed and that I'll be easy to find in a crowd. Isn't that the point? :-)  This neon dress, I can see myself wearing quite often, it can easily be dressed up or down and I love how flowy it is. After a stressful week at work, I felt that Friday was appropriate to wear neon at the office (with a floral cardigan - not pictured) to celebrate the end of the work week.

ISLAND BOHO CHIC

Everyone that know me, knows I love to express myself through my clothes. I am never afraid to wear anything I like, because I live by the motto that we should all dress for ourselves. If you're happy with what you're wearing and you feel beautiful in it that's all that matters.

I have a serious addiction to floral headband and head wraps, my husband would say any headband and in a sense he may be right :-) I wear them everywhere! On this occasion my husband and I were heading out to have drinks with our amazing realtor and her family at a restaurant on the beach. I've been wanting to wear this embroidered crop top forever, so this was the perfect opportunity to style it and it was appropriate for the beach bar/restaurant setting. We had such an amazing time in Grenada and can't wait to go back.

SUMMER BRIGHTS

Hello lovelies! So the temps here have definitely gone cray, cray! I have never been this hot in my life! Well life might be pushing it but holy heat! It also seems like everyone is experiencing the heat; my family in New York and Louisiana, my friends in Idaho, everywhere, this heat is not playing. Anyway, on hot days when the temps hits 90's borderline 100's I always reach for a light and cool outfit. Cotton dresses, shorts, skirts and tank tops in the coolest, lightest materials always does the trick.  Yesterday was a holiday here and I went out for a bit and as usual opted for a cool outfit.

Remember by previous post on color blocking HERE,  this outfit is another example.

I hope you all that are experiencing the heat, are staying cool and don't forget to wear your sunscreen :-)

COOLING OFF (Pic Heavy)

The great thing about living on an island is that when it gets super hot, like it’s been these past few days, instead of staying inside and being a slave to my AC I can plaster on some sunscreen, throw on a bikini and take a short drive to one of the many beautiful beaches and go for a swim.

The heat and humidity here is SERIOUS especially this time of the year. Today, my husband and I decided to head to The Baths to cool off for a bit, I wore my neon pink bikini and cut off shorts, which was previously skinny jeans. The Baths is beautiful and very unique, the huge boulders and natural caves surrounding this beach is like nothing you have ever seen before; no wonder it was recently named number one on Trip Advisor's wonderfully unique beaches.  A hike through the caves leads to Devil’s Bay, which again is another beautiful beach, the hike itself is one for the books. Today I was too lazy to hike all the way through, so I went about half way and turned back.

BRIGHT SUMMER

When H&M released these pants last year it was love at first sight for me and I knew they belonged in my closet. I searched everywhere for them with the help of my husband and mom, only to be told they were sold out. Apparently, they were quite popular; I mean I would expect nothing less of such a fantastic pair of pants. One evening my mom called and said she found a pair someone recently returned, I was in heaven.

I am sure, they are screaming, I have worn them non stop since I received them last year. I love that I can dress these pants down, like I did in the photos below or dress them up with a nice blouse and blazer, there are times when I feel risky and I pair it with a printed top. I mean you only die once so why not, right? Plus, if I am out with anyone, I can't be missed. I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend.
