South Moon in South Beach

admin — Thu, 30 Jul 2015 12:52:55 +0000

Packing for fashion week is no joke. You never know who you are going to see or meet and you always want to look your best. Unlike New York Fashion Week, Swim Week is held annually in Miami in the midst of summer. Not sure who or why they decided to hold Swim Week in the hottest destination during the hottest month in summer but hey, at least they have really good mojitos right? So when packing, you have to take the extreme heat into account and make sure that you are able to wear something that is fashion forward, comfortable and wont make you sweat like a pig. Having learned the hard way last year with some sweat-tastic outfit choices, we knew that this year had to get it right, our deodorant depended on it. With all of our concerns in mind we headed to South Moon Under, which has always been a go to store of ours. We frequently shop there for everyday outfits, gifts and they have the best swimwear and cover-up selection in the DMV area. So when we started planning our trip to South Beach, we knew that South Moon Under was our destination to help get us […]

The Shore Club: A Hidden Gem in Miami

admin — Tue, 28 Jul 2015 11:00:30 +0000

Miami has always had a little piece of our hearts. We both celebrated our bachelorette parties there and it is also where we attended our first fashion shows with the blog. It’s the perfect spot for a girls trip or just a get away with your significant other. Plus, it’s super easy to get to from DC. Since we are seasoned Miami regulars and have stayed in many of the hotels along the strip, this time we decided to try a hotel we had been eyeing since our first Miami trip. The Shore Club is a cute little boutique hotel that is tucked away from the madness even though it is located right on Collins Ave. The vibe is chill, which is a nice change of pace since much of Miami is loud and a bit crazy. The Shore Club Hotel doesn’t feel like a generic chain hotel. From the open spaced modern rooms to the outside decor and lounge areas, you feel like you are staying in a little hidden gem in South Beach. Even though we stayed there during one of the busiest times of the year, Swim Week, we were still able to escape the craziness and get some peace […]

BECCA at Swim Week

admin — Thu, 23 Jul 2015 11:00:28 +0000

Think beach, sun, cocktails and fashion. Just a few of the main ingredients that make up Swim Week in Miami. What fashion and travel obsessed blogger would say no to a beach excursion like this? Naturally we jumped on our first trip to Swim Week last year where we were introduced to a whole new perspective in the fashion game; new swimwear lines, hotels, PR friends, start up companies, events, the list goes on. Once Swim Week 2015 was locked in, we booked our tickets and headed on our now annual adventure. We were introduced to BECCA by Rebecca Virtue on our last Miami trip and have stayed in great contact with them as they have become one of our favorite companies to work with. So of course wearing Becca at Swim Week in between our events to the pool and beach was high on our priority list. The pleasures of being a blogger is having the opportunity to mix work with pleasure. New York Fashion week is truly awesome but you definitely can’t lounge by the pool, drink in hand in between any of those shows. Shop our suits below before summer is completely over with!
