Hello Friends!
Happy (American) Thanksgiving!
Sorry for the long silence on the blog. As you might have guessed from this blog post though it was due to a wonderful fun filled vacation!
Earlier this month Tim and I got to take a vacation to Florida for my cousin's wedding and as we do when we are in Florida, we went around a lot and had a lot of fun!
Day 1 (Wednesday):
Outfit of the Day:
The first day of the trip was just flying so I was sure to wear a comfy dress. I opted to wear my Trashy Diva Circle Day dress in Venice Nights. I paired this with a navy cropped cardigan by MAK which I bought a couple years ago from Modcloth and a pair of comfy black ankle strap flats by Blowfish which I bought a couple years ago from Zappos.

Day 2 (Thursday):
Thursday was a slow and relaxing day. We spent most of the day at my grandfather's house, then went and picked up our rental car, and went to the mall for a bit with my grandmother.
Outfit of the day:
For this day, our first day in Florida, I wanted to wear my Pinup Girl Clothing Jenny skirt in Orange Branch border print. I paired this with a black top I bought several years from Target and a pair of black ankle strap flats from Zappos.

Day 3 (Friday):
The Friday we were in Florida happened to be Veteran's day. We completely forgot this and didn't realize until we got to the beach and saw that absolutely every parking spot in our usual parking structure was taken! And here I was thinking that it was going to be a slow day at the beach! In any case we had a wonderful day at Hollywood beach-- one of my all time favorite beaches ever. We got to do something I've been really wanting to do, parasailing, and we got to try out the new flowrider, the simulated surfing machine, that just opened at this beach about a year ago.

Outfit of the Day:
I had a completely different outfit picked out for the day but since we were at the beach all day I ended up just wearing a lightweight jersey dress I like to wear as a beach cover up. I bought this one a couple of years ago from Nordstrom Rack.

Even though this happened later this same day, I'm going to put these photos right here.
Before the day was through Tim and I went to Santa's Enchanted Forest, a south Florida Christmas tradition. Tim said it was one of the most bizarre things he's ever seen, like if he somehow went into the future and saw a crazy version of what someone thought Christmas should be like. I used to go to this every year when I was little growing up in Florida. I mostly remember going and getting my picture taken with Santa. Even though I thought I remember loving this place when I was little, my mom says this place scared me.
