My boyfriend and I traveled to Cleveland for my cousin's wedding. I wore a dress by Jason Wu, with a one shoulder double sleeve, a full skirt and it features a pretty floral print on cotton. Jason Wu designs have been worn by clients such as Ivana Trump and Michelle Obama, and his designs are often seen on the red carpet worn by models and actresses such as January Jones, Diane Kruger, Joey King, Rebel Wilson, Amber Valletta, Kate Bosworth and others. Most places were still closed due to coronavirus and the blm riots that took place downtown. Luckily for us the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame w ..read more

I spent the holidays with my mom, boyfriend and his family in lovely Sarasota, Florida. We had a cookout on the beach and it was still a beautiful day in the Florida winter and it was a great beach for finding shells. I have a glass covered coffee table filled with shells I and my family have collected over the years, it is truly unique and beautiful, and serves as a keepsake of all the family trips to the beach, and this year I added some new shells with my boyfriend. My boyfriend and I did an impromptu photo shoot and I did some ballet moves. The dress I am wearing is by designer Adrianna ..read more

Went to the @orlandomuseumofart and they are doing art in the galleries! You can sketch what inspires you, and they will even provide the sketching materials. It’s included with a membership to the Orlando Museum of Art. Definitely feeling inspired. I haven’t drawn in a while, and I pulled my drawing skills out of long term memory. When it’s been a long time since I have done something sometimes I worry that I have lost what I have learned. Do you ever have that fear? I took art classes starting in elementary school through high school and it was always something I would do to be creative and ..read more

I tried dinner at The Everglades. My mom and I had wanted to try this place for a long time, and it lived up to its reputation. The decor is decidedly Floridian, and the food is definitely upscale. It is located right on I Drive, practically across the street from the Orlando Convention Center. They are known as a steakhouse and also feature local Florida sourced seafood such as grouper and shrimp ..read more

They do a lot to save thousands of animals who are often injured or orphaned and would otherwise perish. I have been going to the park ..read more

This summer I took a road trip with Nissan Versa. My first stop from Orlando was St. Augustine, it is an easy drive from Orlando in about two hours. I know a lot of people in Orlando think that it is far away but it is only a bit farther than a trip to the beach. Once I got out of Orlando the traffic was a lot better and St. Augustine is so picturesque. It is one of the oldest towns in North America settled by Europeans. It is always cool to see the old Spanish fort, behind me in the photo above, and the old colonial buildings in town. Flagler College is definitely a landmark in the town and ..read more
