#EscapeMiami at the Sagamore

Swimsuit: American Apparel | Sunglasses: H&M (old) | Earrings: Forever 21

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim has arrived! These shots are a peek at the first-ever Swim Week street style photo installation debuting this Saturday at the Sagamore Hotel. The series entitled "Summer Crush" features thirty of Miami's hottest fashion bloggers as captured by Mayleen Gonzalez of Photo Boutique. Miami is synonymous with itty bitty bikinis, so a swimsuit was the only thing that came to mind when I was styling my favorite summer look for the shoot. I was so excited to finally get in front of Mayleen's lens - the self proclaimed photog ninja got these amazing shots in about 10 minutes. No joke! The fastest photo shoot of my life! Needless to say, I'm in love with the final product; I always wanted to be a pin-up girl! 

If you were able to RSVP for Escape Miami before the deadline, get ready for a whole lotta fun: spa & beauty treatments, snowcones (yes!), pop-up shops, a DIY jewelry bar, tan touch-ups, swimwear presentation, blogger corner, & more! 

Fashion Friday 5 | Miami Magic

This week's Fashion Friday 5 is hitting the beach for Memorial Day weekend! What better way to suit up for the official start to summer than by channeling the goddesses of Miami's golden age? If you've been watching Starz's new series Magic City (filmed right here in the 305!) then you understand the Marilyn-esque glamour I'm referring to. The classic pin up look is right on trend this summer, with designers like Marc Jacobs, Mara Hoffman, Chloe, and Nanette Leopore offering vintage inspired, high-waist bikinis.
