DAISY CRAZE

By now you probably get that I kinda, sorta, really love Dolce & Gabbana and while preparing my Lemonade themed Style & The Bar Cart post I noticed DG's Daisy collection.The daisies reminded me of  the 60's and gave me hope for a flower filled Spring/Summer. These little flowers are everywhere and I decided to do a roundup inspired by their pretty white petals and yellow centers.

LOVE IS STRONGER THAN PRIDE

I've had this post in draft since August of last year and have only used one of the images for my FashionBomb Daily feature. Today, I'm posting a flashback from last Summer and this one was inspired by Sade. I'm also giving some insight into why I chose this song to be the title of my post.

MILDRED'S MIAMI MEMORY

While traveling back from Cartagena, we stopped in Miami for a couple of nights because there was a terrible snow storm in NYC. I checked the weather for this weekend and it's suppose to snow (insert crying emoji face). I'm not sure if the snow will turn into rain this weekend but it was very cold all week to the point where we had to whip out our puffy coats and boots again. It's April and all I can say is "Winter to be gone!" I'm ready for sunshine, crisp air and fragrant flowers. 

If you're feeling the chill and want to warm up, reminisce with me and take a stroll with Mildred along South Beach wearing some of her wardrobe essentials. I've linked to a few options for you because they're not your typical "essentials" lineup ;)

CARTAGENA, COLOMBIA - ISLAS DEL ROSARIO

While on our vacation in Cartagena, we took a day trip to the beautiful Islas del Rosario. The boat ride to the islands was about 35 mins and we even saw Dolphins out in the water. When we arrived to the islands, the view was breath-taking and I had to take a moment to thank God for creating such beauty. Today I'm sharing photos from our trip to the islands along with a red retro-inspired swimsuit I'm obsessed with!
