On Vacation - ATL


Ok so it's not really a vacation, it's a business trip but I'm going to make the most of it!!  The business aspect of my trip is scheduled to end each day by 4:00 pm which leaves plenty of time for sightseeing and fun.  I have several friends who live in the area and it will be great catching up with everyone.  Pictures to come, of course.  Until then, have a fabulous weekend!!

Nueva York - Day 4

As my vacation progressed, I became less and less focused on photos so forgive the lameness of these pictures.  It's so easy to get caught in awe in this place.  Monday was super hot so we decided to hang somewhere cool---the movies.  I saw Battleship and MIB 3.  I'm really not a movie person but I thought they were both good flicks.  I was pleased with Rhianna's performance in Battleship and I really liked the way the movie referenced some aspects of the board game.  That was pretty neat.  Will Smith was of course funny in MIB 3 but the movie did have a interesting twist at the end that I didn't expect!!  That's all I'm going to say to keep from spoiling either movie for anyone.

Movie stubs.  Notice the prices.  Both were matinees.
After the movies, we made a quick stop at White Castle.  I must confess, this was my first White Castle experience.  Thanks to the State of New York, which requires restaurants to post calorie information next to all foods on the menu, I knew exactly how unhealthy my delicious meal was.  I'm not gonna lie...it kinda ruined the thrill a bit for me.

My first White Castle experience--delish!!

A friend of mine insisted on Spanish food later that evening.  Good call!  Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of the place but the food was great.  I felt much better about this meal than my burgers earlier.

Spanish meal
This is the last recap of my trip since my photos are getting super boring now lol.  Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I will DEFINITELY make plans to return.

On Vacation - NYC


I'm spoiling myself this year as promised and doing more traveling.  This weekend I'll be taking my Southern Hospitality to the wonderful and amazing city of New York.  I'm looking forward to all the exciting events taking place for Memorial Day.  Stay tuned for photos from my trip (seriously this time).  Until then, Happy Friday!!

Stripes & Color

Thanks to a 3-day weekend (President's Day), I had the opportunity to visit a dear friend of mine in Miami.  The city was beautiful, the weather was fabulous, and there was so much to see and do.  It was so exciting to pull out my sandals and t-shirts in February.  Unfortunately, I had some technical difficulties with my camera after the first night so I didn't capture nearly as many photos as I had planned.  Here is my outfit from Friday night for dinner and club hopping.  The view is downtown Miami.



Earrings - Forever 21
Dress - Express
Belt - Express
Bangle - Pier 1 (seriously)
Clutch - Nine West
Shoes - Steve Madden

On Vacation - MIA

That's right! I'm taking a much needed vacation to Miami, FL.  The recent chilly temperatures and high winds are too much for this Southern girl.  Stay tuned for photos from my trip.  Until then, Happy Friday!!
