I KNOW, I KNOW - I HAVE BEEN MIA

This past week I have been feeling under the weather; feeling a lot better now that I was put on Antibiotics. Yesterday I was able to go thrift shopping with my dearest of friends to get some looks & props - To get ready for the photo shoot we have to do this coming weekend. I am so excited to see the outcome of it; This will be the first shoot we are both styling & taking charge of - It should be a fun experience.  

CRUISE DAY 3 - NASSAU, BAHAMAS

Here is a snippet of our third day on our weekend cruise!

Sunday morning we arrived to Nassau, Bahamas & got a snorkeling tour through the cruise line. I LOVE to snorkel, no matter what time of year it is - if I am on a cruise I will be snorkeling. We got on a double decker boat and took a 20 minute boat ride to our snorkel site... We saw tons of fishes, as well as stingrays and a 5ft barracuda! It was amazing

Second day of our yummy mini vacay was to the NCL private island of GREAT STIRRUP CAY.Saturday I woke up early with my honey and had a sit down breakfast in the ship dining room before heading down to the private island. We all enjoyed it to the fullest; the water was crystal clear & the ship did a buffet style BBQ on the island. I cannot say enough that my experience this weekend was out of this world, NCL has amazing service & amazing dining.

4th OF JULY PARTY & VACATION NEEDS

What does one do after celebrating Independence Day?!

Yes you guessed it, pack for DISNEY WORLD. I put together a collection of two ways to wear denim shorts for both 4th of July  & a mini vacay to Disney.

For 4th of July I paired up the shorts with a Vintage tank, along with polka dot Jeffrey Campbells, a Marc by Marc over sized tote & a high waisted bathing suite. This would be great for those beach/hotels parties or even a fun BBQ with some friends.

For Disney i paired the shorts with a printed mickey tee, Zimmermann zebra bikini, along with some striped toms, a leather cross body bad (Comfortable for spending hours at the parks) & some Prada sunglasses. This would be great for walking around the parks on a hot summer day, while still keeping the vibe going from 4th of July weekend.

LETS TRAVEL THE WORLD

BONJOUR

Catching up from my "Carry On Bag Post" ... i spent this past weekend in PANAMA 

Kenneth & I went to visit his parents which moved over there a few months ago, this was my second visit so i was much more comfortable this time around. We left Miami at 8am the morning after the heat won the NBA FINALS so we were both running on NO SLEEP. 

His parents live in San Francisco, Panama which is considered the chic/downtown area over there. This trip his parents were able to us take us on a 3 hour ride to an inactive volcano which was a once in a lifetime experience! It was about a 2 hour drive and then about 45 minutes whirling around the inactive volcano; which the area is called - "El Valle de Anton" . We stopped by the "Mercado Municipal" which is a market place there, they had lots of fresh produce and shop areas. We also did a walk through of a rain forest located on the inactive volcano; as well as a spring pool meant for heeling. 

From the market place I was able buy a volcanic ash mask for $2 ($40 here in the states) which I was able to bring back with me! I did the mask once while in Panama and tonight as well, I will be doing a post about it fairly soon but I just want to let everyone know it is worth every penny, even if I have to pay $40 here. My acne scars faded with just one use!
