Heyyyyy Miami! Hellooooo South Beach! Ethan and I just got back from a long weekend there and it was the first time either of us had been. We had such a good time and didn’t get to go to nearly as many places as we would have liked so we will definitely be back. Here is a little recap of the places we did squeeze in. If you all are going to be in the area soon and have any questions please feel free to ask me! I’ll be happy to give you more feedback!

Happy Super Bowl Sunday! I’ve never understood why the Super Bowl isn’t on a Saturday. Wouldn’t it be much more fun to pig out and have a party for the game if it was on a Saturday night?! But no one asked me, haha!
However–I do have a new found like for the Super Bowl becuase Ethan and I met on this weekend! So it’s actually our “meet-aversary”. I know that’s not a real thing, but hey–any reason to celebrate something is a good one in my book!
We have a low key evening going on over here. I wore this outfit to meet Ethan’s fam for an early dinner tonight and now we’re settled in at home watching the game. (aka, I am blogging and online shopping while pausing for commercials)
I’ve worn this jacket a million times (twice just this weekend) but I love that becuase it’s such a good feeling to spend money on something that definitely ends up being worth it. I highly suggest snagging one for yourself. It comes in 5 other colors now too! [wearing an xs]
On the way out the door to dinner I reached in my drawer and randomly found a lipstick that I haven’t used in a while and I forgot how much I LOVE it. For me, this is the perfect nude. [color: Cherish]
Hope you all have had a good weekend! Muah!
Crop Top || Levi’s Jeans || Steve Madden Heels [under $100] || Chloe Sunglasses, Color: Gold Transparent Grey || Gucci Chain Wallet
Ok–how crazy that the best pair of jeans I have bought in a long time are Levi’s?! At first I was like are we really doing this again? But then the lighter wash, straighter leg jeans really grew on me. I’m actually super excited about the 90’s jean trend!
I ordered these jeans before our trip to Miami and I wore them lots when we were there. Both nights to dinner and to brunch on Sunday too! [wearing a 25]
&& I’m LOVING this crop top. It’s fun to have a sassy little black top to throw on for date night every now and then, right? [wearing a small]
I know my sunglasses are a tad dramatic (haha!) but I’m all about fun & sassy pairs for Spring!
CHEERS to the weekend, lovers!
Target Bathing Suit [under $50] || Quay High Key Sunglasses
The trend of one-piece bathing suits was around last Summer and it definitely is not going anywhere! It’s still around for your Winter escape trips and will still be here when Spring Break & Summer rolls around too.
We didn’t have a beach trip planned last year so I was behind on the swim search and by the time I started looking for a new one-piece I didn’t end up finding one I loved. So I was determined to change that this year!
I ordered several bathing suits…
This one shoulder option was really cute but I wanted something a little more fun for our Miami trip.
&& this black option ended up being my second favorite! I might be keeping this one to sport in the coming months. Be sure you look at the back–it’s the best part!
Sadly, this one did not fit well. The sides gap really bad–no matter how tight I tied up the neck. Bummer too because I loved the print.
But clearly this one was the winner!
I picked it because the price point was low, the print was bright and fun, the straps were adjustable & there was built in light padding. (sooooo many options out there are only lined) I actually didn’t even notice the bum of the suit until it came in the mail but I LOVE how it mirrors the front and is also scalloped! [wearing a small]
&& a few more options for you all to browse that I am loving….
Have you all jumped on board? If so, write me on IG and let me know which one you choose! I love hearing from you all!
Suitcase Set || Topshop Distressed Hoodie || Zella Leggings || Adidas Tubular Shadows [size down one] || Urban Outfitters Satin Hat || Givenchy Handbag || Cashmere Wrap [best thing ever for the plane]
We’re headed to Miami on Friday && I cannot wait! Just as I’m typing this I am realizing that I haven’t ever really been to a warm weather spot in January… at least not that I can remember, haha! So that alone has me all kinds of excited. I feel like it’s been raining here for weeks and I am dying for a little escape. This long weekend will be just that. Maybe even something we decide to make into a beginning of the year tradition. We shall see!
This will be the first time Ethan and I have ever been to Miami. So….you know what is coming next! Send me your recommendations?! Please! I would LOVE to hear your favorite coffee shops, restaurants, bars and areas to walk around in.
&& you know I just HAD to do a little shopping for the trip! Since I don’t think I am the only one who is desperate for some warm weather I figured I would make a packing guide for you all. The list includes some items I have bought and some additional ones that I am crushing over.
Because for me, traveling comfortably makes it all that much enjoyable. && do not skip the cashmere wrap. Pricy but I don’t think I will ever step foot on a plane again without one! Also, I am dying over those nude Nikes. Perfect right?
I always pick dresses that can be worn with flat sandals if you’re going to be walking or with wedges/heels!
Must have! And some of the options out this year are oh SO cute. ps, platform=comfort!
Must have jeans of the season. Hello 90’s!
Pair with jeans and a top for a dinner date!
I can’t wait to jump on board & give a one piece a try this year. Cute, cute.
Cute tees! Off the shoulder options! Cross Front! Gimmie gimmie!
I think denim skirts going to be everywhere this Spring and Summer! So excited that these are back!
My favorite thing to buy! (other than handbags, of course!)
I always end up wanting a jacket to take out with me at night. Especially if you’re at the beach!
I hope this helps give you all a little inspo if you are heading to a warm weather destination soon! && hey even if not–it’s fun to look right? I have been browsing the internet for weeks scanning all the new arrivals of Spring/Summer items. It always helps to cheer me up when I see the new season start to roll onto my favorite websites!
