It's all fun and play

In my previous post, I mentioned that I was in Montego Bay for our anniversary.  Been here for couple of days, I have already abused most Jamaican dishes--my favorite is definitely curry goat with white rice and plantains. I am a self proclaimed foody! I visited the restaurant "The Natives" so much that the waitress recognized us and remembered the dishes we always ordered.



On this day, I was feeling relaxed and ready for more fun in Jamaica. The morning before hitting the town, I decided to whip up some quick breakfast. I am not a chef; but I can definitely hold my stand. :)

Outfit: Aldo shoes and bangles, Zara long shirt, Michael Kors watch, Baker 'Love' ring, Macy's hat

I will like to thank each and every one of you that sent a happy anniversary wish to us. We truly appreciate you kind and sweet comments.

Wish you all a fabulous week!

Vacation leftovers

This week has gone by so fast.  I can't believe that half of the year is over. I am excited that I have a long weekend--thanks to the July 4th holiday. I will use this weekend to see as many movies as possible especially, "Transformers". I cannot believe that I have not seen "Bridesmaids". Has anyone seen it? What are your thoughts?

I bet you are wondering were these pictures were taken. I took it few weeks ago during my vacation in Dominican Republic. 

Outfit: Maxi dress & hat: H&M;  Leopard shirt & swimsuit: H&M, Jewelries: Aldo

What are your plans for July 4th weekend?
Happy month of July!!!

Day 2: Punta Cana Vacation--A Night Out

I am back from vacation and will continue to share outfits I wore in The Dominican Republic.

This outfit is from another day at Punta Cana. I wore the striped skirt in the evening to a dinner date with my hubby at one of the resort's restaurant called Kyoto. I love Japanese food and I visited this restaurant two nights in a row. I love their fried ice-cream. Has anyone tried fried ice-cream?


I love stripes and when it comes to wearing stripes, horizontal stripes give a wider/bigger appearance , while vertical stripes give a leaner look. Therefore, we should be aware of what type of stripes to wear.
 

Outfit: Zara: Skirt & Shirt, Aldo: Shoes & Clutch, F21: Necklace, Rings: Aldo & F21

Day 1: Punta Cana Vacation

How is everyone doing?

I enjoyed the beautiful Punta Cana. Like I promised, in the next few posts, I will be showing the outfits I wore during my trip to The Dominican Republic.


I wore this dress on the first day at the resort. What better dress to blend with the lovely back drop of palm trees and the clear blue water.

DETAILS:

Outfit: Dress/Hat/Belt: H&M  Jeans vest: Victoria's Secret, Bag/Bangles: Aldo,  Shoes: Jessica Simpson,  Watch: Michael Kors; Accessories: F21, Nail Polish: Sephora

I was not ready to get soaked so I laid by the beach while enjoying the cool ocean breeze and catching up on the latest Vogue magazine.

Enjoy the video... :)

Bon Voyage

Since the destination of my trip was a surprise, I could not post this post earlier because my husband could read it and the whole surprise will be over.

When it comes to packing for trips, I really suck in that department because I always over pack. Then again, my philosophy is that it is better to take more than less--learnt from experience. These are some of the things I packed for my trip.






Update...My destination is Punta Cana, Dominican Republic :) It was so hard keeping the destination a surprise for months. Anyway, happy birthday in advance to my hubby whose birthday is on Sunday!

Boarding in 5mins...

Have a wonderful day guys!

Day 1: London

Out and About

The pictures were taken the next day after I got to London. We all went to the hall where my husband's niece's birthday was going to be held. I was still dealing with time difference + jet lag, but I was ready to enjoy my visit.

.

Hope everyone's week is going well.

More London pictures in the coming posts.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Thanks in advance for you comments

Life is a beach...

After busy weeks of 12hrs work per day, school, and countless of assignments/cases, I needed a break; so, we decide to head to Miami.

I had a blast with my hubby and my friend Ivelisse and her friends. I was also beyond tanned--even my co-workers noticed! We spent most of our day at the beach, and constant visits to Newscafe for pasta and dancing away the hard work all night ;)












After a nice brunch at Nikki beach<--love it!



I couldn't stop browsing & twitting--follow me on Twitter here more pics of Miami coming ;)

I am supposed to wear a costume to work on Friday, but I have even bought one yet--any suggestion????

What are your costumes for Halloween???

Independent

Outfit: Asos Harem pants, F21 tank, and Aldo

As am blogging, am watching Michael Jackson's funeral coverage. I still get this "not-so-true" feeling--I can't believe Michael is dead; but his music will sure live forever.
On another note, I went to Atlantic City for July 4th with friends. I really enjoyed Borgata. Despite the fact that I am not so intrigued by gambling, my first rolette game, I played my $1 chip and got $20--not bad for a first try :D Hope everyone had a lovely 4th of July.

All the best with the rest of the week.

More from London

walking to Buckingham palace!!

I so needed to sit down after long walks!!!

Another Day: This is what I wore to visit family. I opted for colors to compliment the black. It was a cold and windy day.


Sunday!! Sunday!!!
After church we decide to while away time at near by stores before visiting another family relative.



For dine & fun:


Shopping: Oxfords street
my favorite stop by :)


***If you haven't asked me any question, am still accepting any questions...please ask away :)

HAVE A LOVELY WEEKEND!!!

SHE'S BACK

Found the red booth :)

I don't even know where to start; I feel so behind. I can't wait to catch up on all the lovely blog on my roll. I had a blast in London even though the flu/food bug caught up with me. Am still trying to recover. I have my good moment and not so good moment of feeling sick. Right now, I am having my good moment, so I decide to let you all know am BACK--I might not be totally back on full force because of being sick and exhausted, but do bear with me.

Hope your weekend went well and the week is going great. I enjoyed London. London is so much different from America. Each time we got in the car, it felt weird because they drive on the right hand--pretty interesting!!! May be because of the right side driving, it always felt like the drivers where driving too close to each other :)

Now the most fun part, apart from visiting different families, friends, & relatives, I felt like I was in heaven when I went to oxford street for some shopping therapy. I felt like a kid in candyland except I can't have all the candies. To name a few, I went to Selfridges, NEXT, H&M, but the one that they had to drag me out of was TOPSHOP--gosh! I can't wait for that store to hit the states--hopefully I won't go backrupt :)

For now, I have to end my long story because I am feeling a bit tired--I will try and get some rest and hopefully get my grove back before the end of the week.

THANKS for all the safe journey wishes, the sweet comments, and questions. I will try and get back to all questions. If you still want to ask me any question, please ask away :)

First night in London: exhauted from flight, but still had the energy to stop by for food :)

the beginning of my long day tour ;-)




Love the 'vintage' buildings :)

too shy to get close :)

Strike a pose :)

Brief break

I had a great time at my trip to VA beach with bf and friends. It was a well needed fun time since I have been so busy with work and I haven't been to the beach this summer. I got to relax at the beach most of the day, did bike racing, and played soccer. In the evening, we saw a comedy show and strolled down the streets. I barely slept the night before we had to leave because my friend will not just let us girls sleep; so we all gossiped all night long--great girl talk :) Hope everyone had a great weekend. I am still suffering from fun withdrawal, please bear with me.

the effects of salt water?? :-P
