... round and round I go

I have an obsession with round sunglasses at the current moment. I've been trying to find a 'steal' of a deal on round sunglasses so I don't have to spend a fortune on them.


Designer choice - Stella McCartney @ Neiman Marcus, $225


Steal of a Deal - Poolside Round Sunglasses @ Urban Outfitters, $16

I tried them on a pair with a darker lense yesterday at Urban, and fell in love. We were in a bit of a rush, so I wasn't able to purchase them, but if they're still there the next time I'm at the mall, I'm definitely going to purchase them. :)

... current events

My, it's been awhile since I last wrote here on my blog.  To my readers, I apologize.  For those of you just joining me, welcome!

Lots has gone on since Mother's Day.  We traveled to Dominican Republic to witness my sister and her fiance exchange vows.  It was held at the Riu Palace in Bavaro, La Altagracia outside of Punta Cana.  It was a beautiful sight to see two devoted people get married.  It was a well attended affair with 60 people there. 

It was also baby C's first trip outside of the country!  A lot of people asked me how she was on the plane especially since most babies don't adapt well to being on a plane and I guess it's a fear of most parents these days.  We weren't surprised when C behaved herself as she did on her first plane trip to Miami in April for DH's 30th birthday.  She slept the entire time to and from Punta Cana, and if she cried it was minimal and was only because she was tired or hungry (normal reasons for a baby to cry).  She survived the heat, and loved being under the palm trees and swimming in the ocean.

Lastly since then, I've started a freelance job as a Studio/Fashion Stylist with Century 21 Department Stores here in New Jersey.  It's only once a week, which I'm happy about because it allows me to still be a stay at home mother to baby C.  Safe to say, my first day went well and went by very quickly.  At the end of the day, I came home (actually home to my parents' house since my dad watched her) to a sleeping baby.  When she woke, she was so happy to see me.  That truly made my day.

Now that I'm semi back to the workforce, I'll be posting pictures of my outfits, or at least try to do so.

Hope all is well with you, and that you have an enjoyable upcoming Father's Day with your loved ones!  xo
