South Beach Miami: Shopping For New Years

Hello Darlings,

Just hours before the clock strikes midnight and we welcome a new year, I am preparing for my night out and reflecting on 2011!

Steps taken forward, and a few back, but overall this year was terrific. This year it really sunk in the value of determination and strength - as the saying goes you get what you work for, not what you deserve! (oh crumbs—I just realized that I’m out of Moroccan Oil - let the frizz begin).

To prepare for my own big night, earlier today I wandered the shopping streets of South Beach—Lincoln Road, Washington Avenue, and Collins Avenue— in search for a new New Years Eve dress. After visits to Barney’s, Nicole Miller, The Webster Miami and even the Kardashian sisters own store Dash, I gave in to my hunger to stop in at a cute Mexican restaurant at Espanola Way. To quench my disappointment of not finding a must-have, I indulged with a gigantic mojito and fresh guacamole and chips. After all, what’s the point of being upset?

I AM WEARING:

H&M Stripe Sweater

BCBG Max Azria Suui Pointelle Skirt

3.1 Phillip Lim Simon Sunglasses

Coach Madison Leather Lindsay Satchel

Repetto Rose Amour Flats

As I continued wandering, I stumbled upon Juicy Couture store where I picked up an adorable cardi. I also made a pit stop at Sephora to stock up on skin care products: since with this hot weather my winter heavy-weights were not doing my skin justice.

Although, I am without a new cocktail dress, boy am I excited for tonight With new dress or without, I must decide on my outfit… and I am running late See you all in 2012!

CHEERS!

Lots of Love and Hugs…

Marta
