We’ve been blessed in Orlando to have some fairly warm days creep back into the weeks. Which means I can pull out some summer-y dresses without shivering. I bought this Lilly Pulitzer Demi Dress in Berry Sangria from TJ Maxx awhile back and haven’t worn it yet. I can’t tell you why I haven’t. I’ve only attended half a dozen weddings in the past year that it would have been perfect for. Leave it to me to buy a gorgeous dress and then think it’s too pretty to actually wear. I mean, what if I ruin it?! (Which could be very possible with this dress as the lace is delicate).…

Lilly Pulitzer Franci Dress from Sale 2020
I know I said this about my dress from the last Lilly After Party Sale but, their shipping seriously keeps getting better and better. I’ve already gotten my Lilly Pulitzer Franci Dress that I ordered not even 2 weeks ago! It actually arrived last weekend but I’ve been a little busy this week preparing for and recovering from my marathon. Regardless, the ship time from this sale was once again, amazing. And this dress is more gorgeous than I could have dreamed. I couldn’t wait any longer to share it with you!

Pom Pom & Tassel Summer Cami
Keep shakin those Pom Poms because summer ain’t gone yet! I’m sure I’ll say it about a dozen more times between now and winter but, Florida is gonna stay hot for some time still. The end of summer vacation and August may signify cooler fall temperatures for some states, but it doesn’t for Florida. I’m keeping cool and casual in this pom pom & tassel summer Cami. Pom Pom & Tassel Summer Cami This Cami has been on the market for well over a year. In fact, it was last summer that I saw and fell in love with this pom pom & tassel cami. The ruffle detailing and the…

Preppy Summer Crop Top
If I’m being honest, the only time I really feel comfortable showing off my stomach, is when I’m running in just a sports bra (and even then it’s not every time). But this preppy summer crop top with a gingham print and bows is an exception. Here’s the thing, I don’t hate cropped tops, especially with a good high waist (so retro). I hate having the fear of judgement for wearing a cropped top. But, you know, I’m working on it. I’m working on me and not caring what other people think about my body or my outfit or whatever. If you’ve already gotten to that point, more power to…

The Best Casual Summer Outfit: Plain White Tee and Beach Shorts
What I love about summer is lazy weekends wearing a plain white tee and beach shorts. I’ve just discovered the awe-mazing-ness of beach shorts and let me tell you, they’re magical. Before beach shorts my go to lazy outfit was comprised of running shorts and some random T-shirt that was better suited for painting in than anything else. Beach shorts are basically lounge shorts but they make you look like you actually put on real clothes and didn’t just roll out of bed. A plain white tee and some beach shorts are much more acceptable in public than those pair of pajama bottoms I have that inevitably have holes in…

Lake Nona Country Club Wedding
This weekend I went to a wedding at the Lake Nona Country Club as a plus 1. Can you believe I attended another wedding? If you can’t, let me refer you back to the weddings in October, March, and April that I attended. The Lake Nona Country Club is very much what I would say is, my taste. It’s modern and elegant, has a grand staircase, and overlooks a lake. However, I now realize that an outdoor wedding in May in Florida is not ideal at all. The only fitting thing about the millions of lovebugs that I killed was their name and a glimmer of sweat is not a…

Orlando Summer Weather
The weather this past week in Orlando has been ah-maz-ing. 80 degrees to some people is too hot, especially in February, but frankly, I’d love if we had this summery weather all year round! Looking ahead at the week, it looks like it will get chilly again (chilly, in the 70’s. Grab your coats!) That’s not going to stop me from sharing how perfect the weather has been, and how great it was this weekend! Clouds can’t keep me down in this heat, and soaking up the sun is just what the doctor ordered for this weekend! Sunday, I grabbed coffee with a friend and then got ready for a…

Casual Beach Outfit in Boca Raton, FL
If anyone ever told you you can’t wear a dress and be casual, they’re wrong. My favorite thing in the world is a casual, comfy dress. I do enjoy planning my outfits but a lot of times it’s easier to just jump out of bed and grab a dress. This Lilly Pulitzer T-shirt dress is exactly what I’m talking about. It’s easy to throw on and super lightweight for those hot summer days. No other dress could be better for a casual beach outfit. I particularly love this dress on a beach or lake day. If I get in the water it’s easy to change into without it sticking to…
