Prosciutto Sandwich With Fig Jam And Spicy Greens

Yummy! Sometimes I just crave a fresh, springtime sandwich! Prosciutto, arugula, and fig jam, bundled together by a fresh whole grain bread is usually quite a satisfying sandwich! I challenge you all to try it!! I promise you won't be disappointed!

The New "Toms"

My new favorite shoe! I first came upon Soludos Espadrilles on the search for some Toms. Soludos shoes caught my attention by their inexpensive price! Then, picking up a shoe, I realized that I loved Soludos much more than Toms. Sometimes we fall into the trap of "having whatever anyone else has". I am now a proud owner of three! Whoops! They are extremely comfortable, inexpensive, and totally cute! What more could you ask for!











Add Some Print

Sometimes, wearing a scarf around your neck all day can become annoying! The problem is, you really do want to show off your new print! Thats why I love tying mine around my purse! It's a very elegant way to spruce up a neutral handbag. You can tie your scarf in a knot or bow around the handle of your purse! There is always room for an extra accessory!

Lisa Perry

I first met Lisa Perry walking on the streets of New York City.  Lisa first caught my attention with her amazing fashion, and later, I unraveled her beautiful, fun personality. Her pieces are gorgeous, colorful, bright and spunky! I use her large duffle on all my blogging adventures! They have just enough room for my extra pair of heels! XOX-A

It's Almost Spring

Some of you may be getting ready for a spring break getaway! I know I am so ready to leave the cold, now that Fashion Week is coming to a close. That means it's bathing suit time! Now, I know that for some of you, and sometimes for me as well, the thought of fitting my "winter packed" bum into a tiny bikini isn't the warmest feeling! On the other hand, bathing suit fashion is so much fun! I personally love the fringe suits! They are adorable! The fringe adds a spunky element to your suit, and helps to cover up some of those extra, "deserts". Then again, that chocolate cake was so worth it! Don't be afraid to show a little skin ladies! It's almost spring!!
