Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to me!!! Today I officially turn 29!! I am so blessed and so fortunate for everything that I have in my life!
For my birthday look, I wanted to be in something really special and when I found this dress, I knew it was perfect for the occasion. And since it was going to be a special day, I wanted to take pictures at one of the most beautiful places in Miami - The Biltmore Hotel. It's a historical hotel that has a gorgeous lobby with antique Spanish tiles and beautiful gardens through the facility. I've always had a fascination with the past and when you walk into this hotel you will feel like you've been taken back to the 1920's but with a bit of a modern twist. I love this hotel and I felt it would be the perfect back drop for my birthday shoot!
For my look today, I went with a flowy gown that a lace detail on top with a ripping hemline on the bottom. Since I wanted this dress to stand out on its own, I paired it with minimal accessories to complete my look.

Dress: Nordstrom

Heels: Zigi via HauteLook

Amazing Lace

It's all about lace this season! Everywhere you look you can find lace on almost anything. From shirts to jackets to heels, the lace trend is in full effect. I recently got this lace bomber jacket from HauteLook and I am in love with the style. It's nothing like I've seen before. The back is unlined so it allows you show off whatever you have underneath it. It's so feminine and flirty and it will completely change the look of your outfit. This jacket is very unique and I love adding unique pieces to my wardrobe because it really helps me to explore my style.

I Love Me

Doing what makes you happy is what life is all about and I feel like this shirt expresses that sentiment very clearly. You have to love yourself first in order to be happy and to participate in life's events:).
When we were deciding where to shoot this outfit, the first thought that came to my mind was a skate park near my house. Everyday during the Summer, these kids are out there on their skateboarding and doing what they love. They are trying to master tricks and improve on their overall skateboarding skills. I love how dedicated they are to doing what they love. Although it did make me a tad bit nervous when some of them didn't land their tricks, these boys got right back up and went at it again. Sheer dedication the craft:).
For today's look, I paired my strappy red heels that I recently got from the anniversary sale at Nordstrom with this I ♥ Me top to bring out the red in the heart. To add a pop of color, I paired the look with a beautiful bold yellow statement necklace. And to finish it off, I added black and gold accessories.

Summertime Floral

When I think of Spring and Summer, I tend to think of Floral print. I am absolutely in love with floral print to the point that it is becoming a bit of an obsession. I love how feminine and flirty floral print looks and because I am such a girly girl, it's right up my alley:). Today's look features this floral print  blouse with gold accents on the collar that I got from HauteLook. I paired it with white pants and nude heels so that the focal point of the outfit would be my blouse. The colors on this top are very vibrant and make a statement on their own. Since I buttoned my top all the way up, I added a pearl necklace to give it a more classy feel.

Metallic Pants

A trend that was highly sought after in the 90s is making a comeback and that is metallic shiny jeans. Who would’ve thought?! Now, I know this trend is not for everyone but if styled correctly, you can take an everyday outfit and make it a bit chic by adding these jeans into the mix. These jeans can be worn during the day or at night and the key to styling them pairing them with neutral colors.

For my look today, I went with a laid back cool look. Since my jeans are a shiny silver, I paired it with a black scoop neck tee and my new favorite sneaker wedges that I got from Zara on sale. I wanted to edge up the look a bit so that is why I paired it with the studded sneaker wedges and complete the look with edgy earrings.
