I don't want to swim, I just want to be the muse that sits by the water

Morning!

Like the title suggests, I have no interest in swimming - I just want to look great laying out or playing by the water. I also can't swim, but that's another story for another time.

Last summer, I bought two (maybe three, I can't remember) for my vacation - but there are so many options this season that I won't be surprised if one MAGICALLY appears in my closet. This season, the choices are bountiful, and sure to satisfy any woman's preference.

As I've come to be one with my body, I've looked for crazysexycool one-pieces, and supportive yet stand-out two pieces. It took me a long time to get past the security of an oversize t-shirt, and now that I'm over that there's no stopping me. Take a look at some of my picks:




clockwise: Marilyn Monroe Cross Over Halter {Swimsuits for All}, Zebra Print One Piece {Ashley Stewart}, Lion Queen Bandeau {Avenue}, Fiji {Monif C.}, Serengeti Swimsuit {Nakimuli}, Retro Maillot {Lane Bryant}, Birds of Paradise Underwire Top & High Waisted Bottom {Sorella Swim}


                  What's your preference when it comes to swimwear, one-piece or two?

New Beginnings



via Google Images

The lotus flower grows from muddy swamps into these beautiful blooms you see above. They mean rebirth, renewal, self-awareness and new beginnings. For so many reasons, the lotus and it's meaning have made an imprint on me both personally and professionally. When things get muddy I'll remember what beautiful things can grow as a result. 

                     As you can see, the blog looks a bit different (thank you friend!)

Pretty in Pink

Morning!


Social Justice Day is one of the hallmark traditions of my job. I get to explore issues of law and present it in a way that makes students informed and prepared to act.

When it comes to my job, I'm a strategist and not really the first one to volunteer to be in the spotlight. However, when it's required there's no way I'm going to not "look the part". (there's no dress code at my job, but I have an internal dress code a.k.a don't get caught out there, EVER) 




Pink skirts are definitely on trend this spring, I love my pink pencil skirt because the color is fun and the structure is conventional. I have a couple of ideas for this skirt, but for this day I wanted to keep it professional.

My Recap of the Big Thrifty

Morning!

        Who doesn't love lots of clothes, that you just know will fit at cheap prices? (raise your hands!) This past Saturday, I headed over to Somerville to The Big Thrifty. I thought I was early, but lo and behold there was a crowd waiting for the doors to open.




                                  You walk in and there's nothing but clothes ...

                                                                    and shoes!!



       My haul? Just two pairs of shoes, I'm really trying to be "good" and not cause any major 
      damage unless it's for my upcoming trip. 

                            Does your area have events like The Big Thrifty?
