Happy Sunday! I have been super busy trying to make sure that I have all the outfits for my upcoming trip (more on that later) that I’ve been a bit M.I.A lately. Well, for my standards of content.... I have felt somewhat absent. But can we talk about my lemon print dress and how much…

Happy Saturday! I know things are hard right now because it’s hot, you have your mask on, and more than anything you would like to dip in a pool and socialize without thinking twice about your health. But can I show you an outfit that makes you feel like you’re at a resort, pool or…
