I hope you all had a great weekend and are ready to take on a new week!
Make this Monday magical!
I come bearing both good and bad news. Bad news? No Lovable Friday today. Good news? I am en route to Orlando, Florida where I will be celebrating a wonderful girl’s bachelorette! I am completely honored to be my friend, Elissa’s, maid of honor and have had such a good time planning what may just be the best bachelorette party idea in the world. Well, at least to those of us that believe in magic. It will be at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter where we will be sure to spike our Butterbeers and run amok alongside fellow witches all while pledging allegiance to the boy who lived.
I’ll be back next week with party details, as well as a related giveaway!
Have a great weekend, muggles!
For being someone that adores color and brights, I have been deathly afraid to give color blocking a whirl. Maybe I fear that I will just take the idea and run with it. After all, once you give me access to color, I tend to turn into a crazy 6-year-old child. But, I had a lot of fun putting this one together. So much fun, in fact, that I may just try it again. 
I am in love with this airy blouse from Conversation Pieces. It is the perfect spring item to pair with a great pair of colored skinnies, which I did for a very busy Saturday with friends. I had to work in the morning, quickly followed by a girls lunch at Scotty’s Landing and then an amazing Panther game with more friends. I had to make sure I looked comfortable and cute, and this definitely fit the bill.
I added this fun nautical jacket for the hockey game, and I am so glad I did! It was absolutely freezing for this Miami girl, but the team’s amazing shots and nerve-wracking moments proved to provide a little warmth here and there.

Have a great week, everyone!
I’ve decided that if I get my own SLR, I wouldn’t have to bother the poor hubs with frequent outfit posts. Every now and then, I get the opportunity to use a borrowed company camera and I fall in love. Hard. But until that day…
I got all dolled up last week to see the awesome Boyce Avenue at Revolution, but unfortunately, plans got a little botched and we ended up not attending (sniff). However, I decided to still feature the outfit because…well, it was cute! I also unintentionally paid homage to the 10 Cent Designer, Lori Andrews, during my shoot. I put my camera on our dining table on self-timer and must have stood too close for comfort because my head was missing! To satisfy my inner artist, I just decided to go with it.
Did any of you participate in the super fun February photo a day on Instagram?
I had a great time compiling photos for all the 28 29 days and thought I would share them with all of you! For those of you that didn’t get a chance to play, there is one for March! Jump on it!
