Flower Child

Hey everybody!

Today's outfit is super comfy and relaxed. I really channeled my inner flower child with this look. On top I have this awesome blue and white striped crop top that I scored for a decent price at Forever 21. Then I paired it with an old favorite, this navy swishy skirt. I added bright pink accessories, like the floral headband, pink wrap-around bracelet, and pink rose. It was really fun having a prop to play with, maybe I'll do it more often!

I hope you enjoyed!

Pearls and Polka Dots

Hey everybody!

Today's outfit is what I'd wear out to brunch, or out shopping with my friends. The gray top is actually a dress that is rather bland on its own. The bright blue polka dotted skirt adds a nice punch of color! I threw on these gorgeous pearls, as well. The flower isn't part of the necklace, it's a hair clip that I though would be a lovely addition to the piece. I also figured out how to curl my hair nicely with a heatless method, so I was having a ball shaking my head about!

I hope you enjoyed!

Afternoon in Miracle Gardens

Hi everybody!

This Sunday my family and I enjoyed a day out at Dubai Miracle Gardens.  It's a beautiful little garden with flowers of all colors and varieties. It's open seasonally, so we jumped at the opportunity to spend one of our last cool weekends in Dubai outside.

First, we stopped at a cute little cafe called Shakespeare and Co. It's decorated in a beautifully whimsical manner - think Victorian Era meets Alice in Wonderland. We ordered pastries and drank iced caramel macchiatos. They also offered macarons, one of my biggest obsessions! I'm definitely returning soon.

How fitting Marie Antoinette should grace my placemat! "Let them eat cake!"

Our actual destination for the day was Dubai Miracle Gardens. The weather was nice, and the sky was reliably cloud-free. I adore flowers, and was in flower heaven here! I really was in awe of the structures they managed to construe out of flowers. How in the world do you turn daffodils into dragons?! Also, the flower colors went nicely with my outfit, and they photographed well.

I hope you all enjoyed!
