Miami Sunset


I must tell you of the TWO amazing events I attended on Thursday night. The first was to benefit March of Dimes. It was a food show with all the great restaurants in Miami. So we walked around the entire ballroom, sampled as much food as possible and drank our free wine. It was an incredible turn out and the even is for such a great cause. I love being friends with Allie (my PR girl) she gets invited to a lot of great events around Miami and sometimes I am lucky enough to be her date!

We then went over to the Design District and entered a Heaven on earth or more commonly called a Sample Sale. I am telling you 3 floors of purses, shoes and clothes. I was loving it, except for my poor feet were killing me. I must say that Thursday really put a strong desire in me to "experience" Miami. I just don't want to leave this city without taking any of the culture with me. Thats why being connected and attending these events are so fun and make me feel like I am getting the Miami experience.


Today was one of those great days that you never want to be over. I didn't have to work, always a plus. So I slept in, then Zach and I went to a great lunch it was such a beautiful day so we sat outside and enjoyed the weather. I just love when days can be at your pace and not sped up as they so often are. It really is days like today that make me so thankful for my life and my wonderful husband. To be able to have fun with him and just have a lazy day makes me feel unbelievably blessed. Today I also got to be a little bit crafty, to add to my fall decorations. My new big addition to the fall decor is my Pumpkin Chandelier, I think it turned out really great. Slowly but surely I am transforming the apartment a little at a time.

Take a look at the pictures below.

Also... This post wouldn't be complete without wishing my baby sister a happy birthday!! Today I can hardly believe she is 20 years old. It seems like yesterday we were like 6 and 9 years old riding in the car on family vacations for HOURS and HOURS. She has grown into a amazing young woman who will surely continue to do great things. I love you Olivia, Happy Birthday.

A few pictures strictly for nostalgia's sake.

HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY

Its a little pricey, but worth every penny. So save up so the next ti...

Clear Headed

I am back to blogging. I took a five year hiatus and honestly I have missed the outlet. I enjoy this release, and the ability to share with people (even if it's only 2 of you - hi mom!) I turned 30 this year and I am really focused on becoming and showing my authentic self. I love birthdays because I feel like its always a good time of renewal and to reset goals and visions. I am all about making myself better, and really discovering what is going to make me happy, and thats all about what habits and ideas are going to be sustainable. And this is a great platform to write about all those interesting things, that I am sure other people can relate to. So in this journey for authenticity I really want to strive for a simplistic materialistic approach in my life (this is a pretty new idea for me), but I think it will allow more space for the things that really matter. In an effort to move in that direction I received a little inspiration (which as we know always presents itself in ...

Crazy. Beautiful Life

Image
Well the past few weeks have been crazy! I am really getting into my new role and I must say I feel as if it suites me. Now I am still  "rookie" in every sense of the word, but to be honest I am learning from a great master. There is no better person to help me transition into this role and be the best that I can possibly be. And hey I am still me, I still Love, Love :) and that is what it is all about. When you have the honor of being a part of someone's most special day, a day that they will remember forever it really makes you realize how beautiful love is. We have a busy month ahead and I will try to update you on some of the weddings we do whenever possible because please do not doubt that they will be every bit of the word fabulous. In other news it seems that 2011 is the year of the weddings, Z and I have a lot of dear friends and family getting married this year. We are excited for this fun filled summer and fall and hope to make a lot of great memories along th...
