The Cliffs of Moher & Galway!

I don't think any of us travel enough! 

Once you leave your homeland you truly start to see how big the world is..

One of the highlights of my trip to Ireland was seeing "The Cliffs of Moher"

It was a spectacular sight!! Photos can not do it justice.

The cliffs are located on the coast of Clare, Ireland.

I passed by green fields and lots of gorgeous farmland.

I knew it would be cold so I dressed simple that day.

I wore this vintage red leather moto jacket all over Clare and Galway.

Galway,Ireland was also a blast! 

There are so many pubs,shops and live music there! 

If you want to experience a taste of Irish culture visit Galway.

Its a beautiful medieval village with a wide river and Celtic churches.

The sun was very bright so I'm happy I had my RayBan Sunglasses on me.

I bought these special for the trip to Ireland.

When on vacation I feel that an essential accessory to have is a great pair of shades.

Its always good to take a trip to clear our minds and to start on a new page when we return.

Spring Break

How good does the beginning of March feel??!

 I thought the winter was never going to come to an end. 

Technically its still winter but the temperature has definitely gone up on the East Coast.

I've been in the mood for more beach! 

I find that fringe is such a fun little design detail in swimwear!

It gives a rock and roll edge to a plain bikini or one piece suit.

I decided to style this cute fringed bikini bottom with a cropped fringe tee I happen to have!

I love the olive green color of this tee.

Olive green and Army green have been my 2 favorite colors to wear lately.

I find that any neutral color like brown,beige or black matches Olive real well.

I love how this look came out! 

I try as hard as I can to turn my beach wear into a style statement.

It can be a challenge at times  considering theres not much to beach wear.

The official start of Spring is only a few weeks away! 

Have a happy and healthy spring break loves!

Shimmer Effect

I love to be covered in sparkles and shimmer for photo shoots! 

I think the best way to achieve that affect is with jewelry!! I'll be honest.. 

I don't wear tons of bracelets,necklaces and rings every single day.

Accessorizing can be a challenge! 

It takes time to pick the right pieces to style a look. 

I start with the hue and color of the dress or top I'm wearing,

and then color coordinate my accessories around that. 

This is an almost white light pink silk tunic top.

 The moment I saw it, I knew it'd be perfect to throw on over a bikini for the beach. 

I knew it needed a few sparkly pieces for it to stand out.

I chose silver rhinestone pieces and layered necklaces to match the jeweled bikini I'm wearing.

I gathered the jewelry pieces together the night before the actual shoot.

As much as I wish I could roll out of bed in the morning and just know what to style I can't! 

One of these days I need to show you my collection of accessories.

Its still growing and needs organizing!! 

I feel like one of the most important factors in putting looks together is organization!

Once my accessories are organized I'll give you a small tour of my humble little accessory collection.

I'm happy I can give you a few tips on how I style my looks.

As with anything worth while it takes time and patience.

Golden Glitter

Lets take a break from winter for and and talk about sun and lots of color! 

To escape the winter blues a trip to the Islands is always a remedy that works!

Lately I've been loving this incredible crispy cotton maxi skirt.

I love that it has tie dye in it but its not over kill.

This is another great example of mixing vintage with newer pieces. 

I've also been loving Beach bunny swimwear! 

Each bikini is well made and an original design. 

This is the only bikini from beach bunny I have since they are quite pricy.

I love how this fun beach look came out.

The photos are so golden and filled with sun that I had to name this post golden glitter!

I hope these photos jump through your screen and brighten up your winter day.
