Fiesta




I can't say enough great things about Fiesta ware... I signed up for it for wedding gifts and received many wonderful pieces in my four chosen colors: colbalt, sunflower, tangerine, and turquoise. When I registered at Macy's, the girl that helped me told me that Fiesta is like a cult, and that there are crazy people that scout pieces out for their collection. I fear that I may become one of those pieces! The pieces are a little old fashioned, but look great in either a traditional or modern kitchen. My kitchen is a mix of traditional and modern. Our house is from the 1960s and we've modernized it a bit. These pieces could not be more perfect in our house. Looking online today, I found pieces that I plan on collecting...

Sunglasses


On the honeymoon, my new hubby and I had a slight accident when our kayak flipped over and I admit that I freaked out. Luckily, the new hubby was under control and took care of me, got me back in the kayak and calmed down.

But alas, I didn't notice until we got back to shore that lost my beloved Dolce and Gabbana sunglasses. I really shouldn't buy designer sunglasses (I lost a burberry pair for two years, found them, and then lost thing again.... rolled over my Chanel sunglasses with my car... the list continues). But I just love them...

So now I'm on the hunt again for "the perfect pair." Until then... I'm stuck squinting from the sun.

I'm Back!


Since my last post... I'm married and we got back from on honeymoon last Saturday.

The honeymoon was PERFECTION! It would not have gone better. We highly recommend the Majestic Colonial Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. Our room was amazing... the picture above is the view from our balcony.

New Purchase


I just picked this up at Target... on sale for $15! Awesome. The super flirty ruffles make me want to salsa and would look cute with some hot silver heels. Maybe that will be my next purchase...

Tankinis


I'm not really a bikini girl... my love of chocolate and carbs prevents me from having that ideal bikini body.

However, tankinis are a great alternative to the boring one-piece.

Looking for tankinis for the honeymoon...

Honeymoon!



We just booked our honeymoon! We're going to the Majestic Colonial Resort in the Dominican Republic. The future hubby did nightly research finding the right resort for us... the room has a Jacuzzi on the bancony and our room is oceanfront. Free flowing alcohol, all expenses paid for, tons of surf and sun... it's going to be amazing! I can't wait for the wedding of course... but the honeymoon is when the real fun begins!

A Piece of Cake


Looking for something to read this summer?

I highly recommend "A Piece of Cake" by Cupcake Brown. It's a fascinating story of a girl who faced unbelievable hardships and her recovery. It's not exactly a "light" read, but you'll be so drawn in by Cupcake, that you won't be able to put it down.

I would tell you more...but why spoil it? Go get it...
