Hello Darlings,
In a very cute e-mail, I was asked to share my cottage getaway essentials. Of course, cottage country is all about fun times with friends and relaxing, but that does not mean that you should live and sleep in your pj's the entire trip! So fellow cottagers I suggest you put on some "real" clothes and put your cutest foot forward (and it better have a pedi) when grabbing that ice cream or going for stroll.
Looking cute is not always the first priority when in cottage country, but things are soooo much more fun when you look and feel fantastic!
Hello Darlings,
I am wearing:
First of all, thanks everyone for your support on yesterdays post!!! This is my place to stand up for my personal beliefs and voice my opinion on certain matters, I'm not very good at overlooking things :P Thank you for your sweet words! I adore my blog and more so I adore the new friends ( all of you darlings) that I have made because of it :)
This is the last part of my Las Vegas posts! Lounging by the pool was the best way to beat the heat...and of course, finally have a chance to wear my new Brette Sandler silk cover up.
I am wearing:
Moschino Bikini
Christian Audigier One piece swinsuit
Juicy Couture Flats
Coach Wristlet
Large Floppy hat from a random store.
I am wearing:
Kerrigan by Daryl K silk dress
Ruthie Davis Swarovski Crystal shoes
Coach Clutch
Despite bringing 6 pair of heels and 3 pairs of flats... those fabulous shoes you love so much become a torture device after a few days of all that walking and dancing!!! ( Outchy) After experiencing my first blisters in many years after the first night, I resorted to wearing my trusty flats up until the point of going to clubs.
I am wearing:
Alexander Wang Chiffon Dress
Juicy Couture Flats
Coach Wristlet
Luc Kieffer Ring
At first I could not bear wearing my favorite Wang dress or my new favorite tutu skirt with flats... however, not only did I learn to love it, but I also came to appreciate that it could look cute and add a touch of effortlessness to the entire ensemble. Honestly, I think that flats can look as wonderful as high heels... I know that this is the worst thing to say, since fashion dictates high heels is the most fabulous thing ever. I do find that flats are the best substitute and can be as chic as high heels on some occasions:)
What do you darlings think? Can flats be as fabulous as high heels?
Lessons learned: Heels are not worth wearing if you're going to cripple your feet! And wearing a floppy hat is a smart choice, not only to shield your face from the harmful rays but also to avoid heat stroke!
I am wearing: Maggie Ward Dress;
Juicy Couture Flat
Gustto Cokera Purse
A.V. Max Cuff
Floppy Hat from a random store.
As for the rest of the vacation spent exploring, eating and lounging... I wore flats and more casual attire! Including my favorite Meggie Ward dress. It looks amazing with everything, got to love those pieces that offer you endless variety. From casual to night out this dress is ideal!
I am wearing:
Club Monaco Semi-Sheer Top
Chanel Sunglasses.
To top of almost every outfit I wore my floppy hat, religiously. I never thought that I could pull it off or feel comfortable wearing it, but I fell in love. A fedora may be the hat of the moment, but it made me feel like a teenage boy and really did not suit my style. Soooooo many people make it look a-m-a-z-i-n-g, I just felt awkward. But the floppy hat made me feel like a lady :)
By the way, if you're ever in Las Vegas check out the Bellagio fountains. They are sooo stunning (click on the video belong and turn on the speakers). Also check out the Eiffel Tower, the views from there is beyond AMAZING!
I wish you all a stunning day!!!
With Love...

Hello Darlings,
Vacation is for relaxing and getting away from your everyday life - but it is not the time to look frumpy. It is the time to look and feel fabulous - although easier said then done.... So here's my attempt at being vacation fabulous in my Tiny Bikini.
A bikini is the most important article of " clothing" during any beach vacation, but it is also the most dreaded one...
Prancing around in a bikini is of course intimidating, and I for one am uncomfortable parading around a resort half-naked. So I mostly wore a dress or shorts outside the beach area ( bar, restaurants, lobby, etc) ...
As for sarongs, I am not very fond of them, especially the long ones. Then again, if it works then it works.
I am wearing:
Moschino Triangle Bikini
Ray Ban Wayfarers
Marc Jacobs Sunglasses
American Apparel Lame Headband
In the swimming pool, I usually resorted to a one piece... swimming pool is the time for fun and games and the last thing I want is to constantly check if my tiny bikini is still there,lol...But a one piece should be on a sexy sice rather than a sporty side ( unless you're a serious swimmer,lol)...
I am wearing:
Christian Audigier Peacock One Piece Swimsuit
The moment I say this swimsuit, I fell in love with it ... it is very comfortable and sits in all the right places. I don't think that any swimsuit ever made me feel as confident and feminine as this one ... if I could, I would wear it everyday.
Besides the swimsuits....
My vacation wardrobe was all about cute dresses and my favorite Miss Trish of Capri Sandals (I love them, so much).... easy to wear and easy to look cute in.
I am wearing:
Ella Moss Daisy Off Shoulder Dress
Miss Trish of Capri Sandals
Marc Jacobs Sunglasses
I am wearing:
Wilfred Dress
Miss Trish of Capri Sandals
Ray Ban Wayfarers
Marc Jacobs Sunglasses
Cute shorts are also perfect for the beach... just pair them with an adorable top, over your bikini and you're ready....
I am wearing:
Abercrombie &Fitch Shorts
Abercrombie & Fitch Top
Marc Jacobs Sunglasses
I am wearing:
H&M Top
Abercrombie & Fitch Shorts
Miss Trish of Capri Sandals
As for my hair... well having wavy hair is a nightmare. However,I found that the easiest way to keep it looking neat and cute at the beach is by either french braiding it or putting it into a tony tail with a headband. For the night time, I usually let my hair out...but it was thanks to TIGI S-Factor Smooting Lusterizer and Bed Head Headrush that my hair remained glossy and shiny, instead of turning into a frizz ball.
NIGHT TIME
When the sun set, Cancun city came to life... The party atmosphere there is amazing and Andrew and I definately look advantage of that. Every night, we explored a new and amazing nightclub.
Here are some of our memories...
I am wearing:
Maggie Ward Dress
BCBG Max Azria Blazer
Swarovski Love Charm Bracelet and Necklace
Miss Trish of Capri Sandals
The Coco Bongo shows are incredible.... amazing, performance, wonderful atmosphere... and always extremely crowded
As for wardrobe, I usually wore simple dresses with heels or flats... nothing too complicated.
As for make up....
In a hot and humid climate, the last thing you want is to wear a ton of make up... half way through the night your face will be melting off - TRUST ME not a pretty sight ( and I saw a lot of it)
I am wearing:
Wilfred Dress
Michael Kors Heels
Boy, do I wish that I was still there having the time of my life.... but instead, I am here.... freezing my behind off.This is the last part of my vacation post...
I wish you all a wonderful day !!!!
With Love...
