The Escape 003 - Vacation Diaries

















Sunset drinks at Castle Hill, trespassing (again) onto cool locations, foraging vintage shops, more cocktails on boats, enjoying my new favorite dessert (for the 3rd time while on vacation) and discovering new boutiques like Kristina Richards with an amazing shop-able shoe closet and cozy man chairs.

****Jeweled Obsession 001****

Beaded Phoenix Necklace $698
Its pretty late and I'm sitting here, bundled up in front of the AC thinking about winter.  More specifically the fuzzy knits I plan on wearing this winter and the fun jewels I can't wait to accessorize with.  Although way out of my price range, this lovely piece from Anthropologie is pretty much my wants ripped out of my head, packaged up and presented for purchase.  I can just see this beauty layered over a heather grey sweater...can't you.

****Holding On - What I Wore****

Tank/Pants/Shoes - H&M, Necklace - Naughty Baubles, Bracelet/Ring - Vintage

Its the last day of vacation for me and I can feel the stormy gray cloud growing with the unwanted anticipation of returning to work.  Kinda blows but I do have tons of amazing memories from my 6 day escape.  I can't wait to upload and organize all the pics (I played tourist like never before switching between a few cameras and snapping away) and show you a couple of new pieces I brought home.  I also feel my creative block has been lifted (YAY!!) I can't wait to dive into a few DIYs and make a few new pieces.

As for the outfit pic, I, like so many others, fell head over heels for pastels this summer and after seeing these pants I couldn't resist.  I love the soft lilac shade mixed with the pale baby pink and shocking lemon but my only regret was not going down a size in the pants.  Like everything we wear, the twill pants stretched out a bit and now they are not so tight.  At the end of the day I ended up with way too much room for my comfort level in the crotch area and I kept getting the feeling that when I bent down a free panty show was going on. The last thing I want to be is the low-riding thong showing gal everyone snickers at so I may just have to grab another pair.  

Hope your weekend was great and here's to happy Monday!!!!
