every other sunday at the antique fair ❤

every other sunday on lincoln road, there is an amazing antique fair with an endless amount of booths lining the streets. many of them are overpriced, but that doesn’t mean a gal can’t browse and dream of owning multiple closets filled with furs, vintage dresses and polka dotted silk scarves. luckily there’s old cameras too, so matt came along for the walk (and claude too!)…

minty on española way.

one of the best parts of where i live is that my neighborhood is a dream for walking around. i live so close to espanola way, and it is so beautifully decorated for the holidays. miami beach is sort of like nyc in the respect that you can walk everywhere and almost always find something to do, but you get to wear less layers and…

plaid, please.

the sun usually doesn’t let me take pictures of what i wear to work since it’s always dark when i get home, but here’s what i wore yesterday! when i am at work i usually wear j.crew or try to look “j.crew” but mixed with my own personal vintage-y style. i absolutely adore plaid right now (but who doesn’t with christmas right around the corner).…

girls and pearls.

nothing catches my eye more around this time of year than velvet. naturally i adore this velvetty skirt jeweled with polka dot pearls! it has been chilly enough in the mornings and afternoons for knee-highs, and i have been indulging. i am on the search for some new ones because these always slide down my leg as i walk. i would love some fair isle…

baby it’s cold outside.

it has been in the 60’s early morning, which is not to be taken lightly in my book! i am in full-on sweater mode, and i have way too many sweaters in rotation! i finally caved and got this sweater from j.crew to wear on thanksgiving day. i mean c’mon, how could i resist 🙂 i can’t believe thanksgiving is tomorrow. it is one of…

a cabin in the woods.

when the weather get’s chilly, the best place to visit is my friends cabin upcoast. it’s a bit dilapidated and  beautifully rustic. the air is crisp, the grass is high and it is in the middle of nowhere. i have dreamt about these fall/winter days all year and they are finally back! i am having one of those weeks where i miss too many people.…

once upon a time.

hey there, it’s me at 6:30 p.m. on tuesday night typing this after a 2 mile run. it has been getting dark so early and i don’t like it one bit! i can’t even pretend that i am not tired as ever. i took this week off from my store to adjust to my new hours and to figure out how exactly my life is…

halloween on south beach.

i spent the afternoon on halloween wandering around lincoln road with some friends. the energy was lively, little kids were trick-or-treating and even dogs were in costume! i love being in the middle of the hustle and bustle on lincoln, and am even more excited that in 12 days i will live right nearby! i hope you all had a lovely halloween, and have a…

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! i hope everyone stayed safe in the hurricane. it’s a post filled with mixed emotions, because many of my family members lost cars and had flooded houses from the storm. they are on my mind. i am very happy they are all okay, and thankful for that. also, yesterday i got a promotion at work! i cannot believe how much i like the…

i never met a pumpkin i didn’t like.

big pumpkins & little pumpkins, i just love them all. growing up in my family, halloween was a big deal. every year we went to a pumpkin patch and my two brothers and i each carved our own pumpkin. we always dressed up, and we always trick-or-treated until our pillowcases were full of candy (i trick-or-treated until i moved away for college at 18 LOL).…

living in chambray.

if j.crew has taught me anything, it’s that you can never own or wear too much denim/ chambray. i honestly didn’t own any chambray tops until this year, but i love how versatile this one is. i wore this outfit to work. i feel sort of silly sharing work outfits because they are not 100 % my style, more like a mixture of me +…

looking back ❤

matt and i found this new cute brunch spot near our house called morgan’s, and had to try it out, especially since breakfast food is about the only food i eat. it was breezy and beautiful so we sat outside and i had berries with whipped cream. mmmmmmm. i’m still dreaming about it. i found this dress on a trip upcoast. my friend joey specifically…
