Hey there, beauties! I apologize for the lack of updates lately, but big news: Matt and I moved back to the state known for its endless summer - sunny Florida! It's been a whirlwind leaving NYC behind, moving back our home state, getting adjusted to the relaxed pace and the new job. But in the end, I have a good feeling about this all. Nothing that an It's-It ice cream sandwich won't fix! Try the cappuccino or this season's pumpkin flavors ;) It was so much fun to collab with them for this post with their vintage style apparel. With this tee, I went for a classic combo with ripped jeans and some killer heels. For the fall, I also love this crewneck sweatshirt. I'm such a sucker for a comfy sweatshirt, especially this grey color that could be tied around your waist with any outfit.

Cheers to moving TSR to Florida! Any recommendations on photo shoot sites or food spots that you love, let me know below!

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I spent Labor Day Weekend in Philadelphia with great friends and great music at the Made in America Festival! It was so much fun, I'm still recovering. Haha, I think I'm getting old. 

Here's a quick outfit post when Matt and I were exploring downtown. Our fist day, we had lunch at El Vez (get the guac) and dessert at Insomnia Cookies. More photos of the festival with outfits soon!

We leave for Florida tonight to kick off our wedding weekend! I don't know what to do with myself. I'm so excited, happy, thankful, blessed, anxious.. really thankful. I just really cannot wait for all of our families and friends to be together in one place to party.

I am nearly ready to fly out tonight, just need to do some last minute packing and cleaning. But I am so ready to marry, the love of my life this Saturday -- 10 years in the making. Gah! No more talking about it, I'm already tearing up. Wish us luck!

spring lace

Dress: Last Call NM (old, but similar here and here) // Jacket: Tory Burch // Heels: Valentino // Clutch: DVF // Sunglasses: Karen Walker 'Super Duper' // Necklace: J.Crew // Bracelet: David Yurman // Lips: Clinique 'Broadest Berry' // Nails: OPI 'Don't Bossa Nova Me Around'

I associate the Spring season with two main things: 

cleaning and lots and lots of lace. 

The former I have yet to complete, but in the process, I reached in the back of my closet and rediscovered this beauty (purchased 5 years ago!). Perfect for Easter. I've always been a fan of lace, there's something so lady-like and but no fuss about it. If you're also loving this spring trend, check out LOFT (everything is 50% off with code CYBER50 today!) and Zara for some affordable and on trend lace pieces. 

I want them all! Help me.

Ah, a little #flashbackfriday. It's a little ironic that I'm posting this since it's snowing in NYC today. On the first day of spring, nonetheless. So crazy!

Por favor, take me back to la Republica Dominicana!

Enjoy your weekend, everyone.
