we took these on the way to get groceries. i love dressing up to go places. always have, always will. i thrifted these shorts a bit ago, and can't wait to wear em' a bunch all summer. i'm going to bring them on all kinds of fun summer trips with me, i already know it :) i can't wait to pair them with a red and white striped top. eeek! raise your hands if dots make your heart beat as fast as mine!

some of my best days are days hanging around town with my friend zak the baker. one of the hardest parts of moving to miami 2 1/2 years ago for me was meeting people i connect with. zak is definitely one of those. he started his bread company from a garage in his old home, and now sells his bread at restaurants all over miami. how's that for passion? i love people who love their craft, and he sure does. he even has little goats at his house (he lives on a farm) to make goats milk. the baby i am holding is francesca! his house is also a vintage lovers heaven... decorated with old photos, dusty books, and amazing wood pieces all over.
we went to wynwood for some coff, and i of course wore tons of mint! i love this breezy polka dotted top, and mint shoes can't ever get old. have a lovely wednesday :) thank you so much for reading my blog. xo
p.s. we added some cute new vintage into my store yesterday!

matt and i decided this week that it's our new friday evening tradition to watch the sunset on south beach. we live only a few blocks away, so what's our excuse not to?! he surfed a few bad waves and i read magazines, and it was the best ending to the week!
i got this chambray from j.crew last year and i get so much use out of it! it's great buttoned up, but also as a layering piece. the beautiful floral bag is a gift from lulu's.. it's the best summer beach bag! all-white looks are my new favorite, i didn't wear white too much last spring/summer, but this year it's all i grab for :) who else has been a white addict?

so i re-assessed and am returning for a do-over, but doing tons of things differently! here's some things i've learned along the way for all of you interested in running an online business. AND new items in the store!
things i've learned:
❤ keep all receipts, and keep them VERY organized. have a separate account for all store expenses, so
your costs are very clear each month.
❤ don't think you can do everything alone. i hit a point where i was having misses and messing up shipping, solely because it was too much for me to handle. i now have a partner (who i will introduce you to soon!)
❤ do realize what tasks make you happy to do, and which ones you dislike. by finding someone who can do all the things you don't like to do, you will stay motivated.
❤ produce a product you are proud of. when i moved and my product photos changed, i was unhappy with them and didn't want to shoot new product. i re-arranged my house to find a nice bright wall perfect for the photos.
let's hope the 2nd time around i stay motivated and things move smoothly! we will be listing new items once per week! :)
here's some of my favorites (click on em' to shop): tons more in THE STORE!
p.s. we DO ship internationally!
