just WOW. miami has been full of meaningful things to do, and i am just soaking it all in. these were taken on saturday– we went to the street fair in our neighborhood. i spent all my money on: a. marshmallow sprinkle pops b. iced coffee c. holding a boa constrictor and having my picture taken with it. shows a bit about my character, huh?…
when i was growing up, my walls were bubblegum pink with giant white polka dots. i drove a VW beetle with pink and white polka dotted fabric all over the dashboard, AND i had a vintage skirt to match. to this day, when i see something with polka dots i go a little crazy for it. if i lived alone, i promise you i would…
hello friends! it was a brilliant weekend here in steffy land! i spent most of it in a weird silly/ giddy state, goofing off with my two favorite guys– my dad and my matt! we saw wanderlust, ate yummy mexi salads at el jefe luchador, and on sunday matty even thrifted with me (and i think he enjoyed it!). i wore this to the eye…
i almost smiled my face off when Modcloth picked me as blogger of the moment. my heart felt really warm, as i found many of my most favorite blogs by perusing the interviews of past bloggers of the moment. of course my dress is extra polka-dotted and extra pink with a sweet collar! it feels like it sums me up perfectly 🙂 i styled the…
so i am going to let you all in on a little secret. i wear glasses in EVERY post not because i think they are cute (i mean i do, but…) but because i have this eye infection that i just can’t kick! i think it is silly because i’ve been wearing the glasses so much that they have turned into my signature. in class…
it’s here, it’s here, valentines day is here! i have been dressing in different combinations of red and pink for days 🙂 today i shudder to say i will be in school taking midterms for a majority of the day, but don’t fret, matty and i will be enjoying an italian dinner tonight. ♥♥♥ mmm! i like to think of valentines day as an excuse…
matt took me to this amazing place, the daily, yesterday morning in downtown miami so of course i had to share 🙂 they have EVERYTHING… there were too many sandwiches to choose from so i instantly went with a rice krispie treat. typical! recently, aside from my pastel obsession i have been drawn to black and white. i want to say it is “easy” ..…
oh hiiiiii. going to make it quick today 🙂 i am off to shop/ drink coff and then shoot street style for a midterm project due next week for my trends class! these were taken upcoast.. i lived in this cute heart sweater all weekend. an all pink outfit balanced out by black accessories has been my “valentines go-to.” it’s COMING! get your pink heart…
as far as dreams go, one of my biggest dreams is to live in a house in the woods with a backyard. i know some people think the tropics are beautiful, but my idea of beauty is a deserted road in the middle of the wilderness. i think snow and the fall and trees without leaves are SO pretty. i’m jealous of all you cuties…
woah, heart! it’s quite bright 😉 i’ve been wearing this knit top non-stop, mainly with shades of brown. i love red and brown together! i hope you all had a fabulous weekend. mine was warm and special. went to my friends’ potluck dinner that they host each week & laura of blorange dice was in miami for work and came! we had such a perfect…
*edit: use the code “tgif” for 30% off my store until saturday at noon! aside from feelin’ extra fancy in this velvet getup with lace detailing.. i felt sort of like an oreo cookie 🙂 i am such a color lover.. but every once in a while black is just a breath of fresh air! idk… you probably won’t see another all black outfit anytime…
oh how happy i am that it is wednesday! i LOVE wednesdays because i shop for my store today. it is the one day of the week that i live in a dream world… wake up, sip coffee, ignore all homework, shop & sew and finish the day by cooking a home cooked meal for my guy when he gets off work! i hope your…
why hello there. i’m just listening to dirty projectors, stillness is the move over and over again. it’s such a good song.. or the whole cd is good, actually. it reminds me of living in nyc because i would always dance to it on the subway. i’ve been really missin’ nyc, i can’t wait to move back one day. these were taken yesterday when we…
a perfect glimpse of a perfect day in coral gables. ♥ the weather has been in the 50’s! matty and i walked to the post office to ship off some of your goodies and then grabbed an authentic french meal at our favorite cafe, chocolate fashion. their raspberry tart is the most delicious treat i have ever tasted, and i have tasted lots of sweets!…
why hello and happy friday! i am really happy to announce that this is my first “real weekend” in a very long time [ aside from the class i have saturday morning]. after playing super steffy last quarter and working + running my store/blog + attending school full-time i realized something had to go because i am not super, i am just a normal human…
hiya guys! i am safely back in miami after QUITE the journey. spirit air (worst airline!) decided that it would create only one flight time to leave nicaragua– departing at 2AM! ick. so we didn’t get back to our cozy bed until 6AM yesterday morning. i am admitting to taking a guilty-free “do nothing” day yesterday 🙂 i slept until about 1PM and then walked…
hey guys! this was another day in paradise! i sat and watched the sunset with matty and some of our closest friends while wearing my favorite boots n’ hat. then i ate a “domingo” or an ice cream sunday for dinner. these are the nights i live for! now were heading back to miami.. back to normal-life! p.s. use the code “backtotheusa” for 25% off…
i could just go on and on about: a) how being here makes me appreciate things like.. AC, non-freezing showers, job opportunity, etc.. the things we take for granted b) how all of those things don’t matter at all really… because there are so many incredible people who are happy without them but instead i’m just going to say that being in nicaragua reminds me…
there’s nothing i love more in life than to remain in search for more. whether it be more knowledge, more culture, more love or just more fulfillment out of my own existence. this search drives my love for traveling… if i could remain on the road forever, i think i would. .. as you read this i am somewhere in nicaragua heading to the north…
could not have had a more smiley and perfect new years. ♥ we spent it at our good friends house surrounded by everyone we love. we all camped on their property and got to wake up and eat breakfast together! i wore (of course) a polka dotted dress… my new years dream dress! i styled a beehive hair-do to accompany the retro dress. this morning…
