Two young children = no more shopping trips!  I’ve learned that browsing the store with kids is hard work …I end up spending most of my time disciplining, cleaning up snacks or chasing after them. My enjoyment of shopping at the stores no longer exists so I’ve become an Internet consumer.  I do not get the benefit of trying on the product before purchasing it but if it avoids chaotic craziness with the kids, I’ll take the chance that I might have to return it. 
Today, my husband was so sweet and suggested I go out and have a “me day.” So of course I took advantage of it and went SHOPPING! It was so nice to leisurely browse around and try on tons of clothes without any interruptions.  I so appreciate these moments of “me time”, it seems to bring a sense of balance back into my life.

Strolling The Boardwalk …

November 17, 2016

The Swan Hotel was so convenient; not only did they have transportation to all the Disney parks but also from the hotel we could walk across the bridge to the Boardwalk where they had some good eats, games for the kids and ICE CREAM! We had a great time on a family bike we rented. Then we strolled the boardwalk while the kids enjoyed some ice cream.

Before the kiddies woke up, I had a little “me time” so I took a leisurely walk by the pond and thoroughly enjoyed a delicious cup of coffee. It was a perfect way to start my morning before the chaos began!

Disney World Vacation …

We finally made our first trip to Disney World. My husband had to go for business so we tagged along for the ride…  and boy was it a long ride! Why was it long? We stayed at the Swan Hotel that had shuttle service to and from the Disney parks so we didn’t rent a car… packing up two kids, two strollers, bags … need I say more? It was a bit chaotic loading and unloading but it was all worth it! There was so many things we wanted to see and do and we did it all! … BUT paid the price with exhaustion!

We visited the Magic Kingdom and attended the Holiday party. My husband goes crazy around crowds so the Holiday party was perfect. The Holiday party runs from 7pm to 12am. And since we live in LA and Florida is 3 hours ahead, it worked out perfectly because I was able to keep the kids on LA time. We woke-up late and went to sleep late.

When I asked my son what his favorite ride was… he said, “the Goofy rollercoaster!” He loved it so much he rode it twice. The firework show was amazing but to me the best part was watching my kids laugh with excitement and smile with pure joy! Stay tuned for more of our family vacation.

Culottes …

November 8, 2016

culottes-1 culottes-4-2culottes-2 culottes-3 culottes-6  Top: ASOS Bodysuit, Pants: Old ones (similar one here), Shoes: Jessica Simpson ‘Claudette’ Pumps, Clutch: Tory Burch ‘Gigi Caviar’ Leather Clutch, Chocker: TopShop Chocker, Bracelet: David Yurman Cable Buckle Bracelet with Gold, Bracelet: David Yurman Cable Classics Bracelet with Gold, Bracelet: David Yurman X Bracelet with Gold, Bracelet: Hermes Clic H, Watch: Movado ‘Bold’ Bracelet Watch, 36mm, Ring: Bvlgari B.ZERO1, Hat: Phase 3 Tassel Band Floppy Hat, Sunglasses: Tom Ford ‘Miranda’ Sunglasses

I wore culottes a lot during the summer. I’d throw them on with a crop top or a long sleeve bodysuit like I did here. Culottes give off the illusion of a skirt but are cropped pants; they are loose, free flowing and cool for warmer weather. You can still get more wear out of your summer clothes by transitioning them into fall outfits. Stay tuned for more ideas.

Spanx?!

November 8, 2016

I’ve never own a pair of Spanx until now! I bought these faux leather leggings and I absolutely love them. They literally can be worn with anything and you can either dress them up or down, depending on the occasion. Spanx are definitely a staple for the fall, winter and possibly spring. I’ll be blogging about these leggings a lot in the future because of their versatility.
