Last night I had the pleasure of going to an amazing Beatles tribute show at our resort {wearing this little number}. The band, Britian's Finest, sounded identical to the original Beatles. If you are a Beatles fan at all, you would have been in heaven. I definitely was! As for today, we visited Balboa Park, which has a variety of museums with great exhibits indoors and beautiful views and architecture outdoors. Couldn't have been a great last couple days.

As for my outfit, I went with a mint-on-mint look. Which almost looks like a maxi dress from far away. I absolutely love how elegant the colors look and how much taller that I look {with assistance of my wedges}. With that said, if you are petite and you do not own a maxi dress or skirt, get on it. I made this maxi, and I definitely plan on making a couple more. I mean who isn't into looking nice and being extremely comfortable!?

Hope everyone is enjoying their week! xo

I am officially vacationing in warm San Diego with my family this week. I am so excited to just relax, soak up some sun and enjoy spending time with my family. I wore this {almost head to toe Target look} to brunch this morning. Nothing is more comfortable than an all knit look with wedge heals. Considering this season focuses on color, I must admit that neon pink and navy is one of my favorite combos {among many others}.

Hope everyone had a great weekend! What is your favorite color combo!?

So who has shopped at Target lately!? I recently walked in the store and fell in love with half of the merchandise. And thought, this is why Target is my favorite store. My eyes bounced from one item to the next spotting gorgeous clutches, perfect basics, and summer dresses. And if you need a swimsuit, Target is the place. The reason I am going on about Target, besides the fact that the store is a broke girls dream, is I purchased these lovely shorts there {on sale, score!}. Two other things I must note (1) I am obsessed with combining yellow and navy (2) These dangle Chloe and Isabel earrings are my absolute favorite. I don't wear dangles, but they are light, cute, reasonably priced and perfect. Check them out {here}.

And yes, I had to throw in a picture of my family's yard. It is filled with beautiful colors and plants--my father really does a great job keeping it up.

Hope everyone is having a lovely Monday! xo
