I think I am done dusting sand out of places I didn’t even know it could reside, so in other words, I am baaack! And although I had the time of my life in Aruba, yes even better than the Ryan Gosling move from Crazy Stupid Love, I was dying to update the blog, because I pretty much left you hanging. However, I was with a crew where disconnecting was key, and I am glad they made me because it felt really good, so the updates had to wait. I thought I’d start out slow with an outfit post featuring a dress from a website I shopped from for the first time, Sabo Skirt. They are located in Australia so I was rolling the dice on sizing but it all worked out as you can see and now I am obsessed! When packing for this 7 day trip my goal was to bring simpler solid dresses and up the ante with accessories. You’ll see in my next few posts how I mixed and matched statement shoes and a key jewelry pieces to give a touch of glam while still channeling that island style.

This is just a little bit of what’s to come as far as my Aruba Adventures and fun in the sun so make sure to check back tomorrow!
