I had the BEST birthday with my husbano, the pups and my Pupo family. We had brunch at Serena Rooftop, Moxy South Beach. The decor was beautiful, the food was delicious and the vibe was exciting. Of course the company was AMAZING! Turning 44 ain't so bad! Meet the Pupo fam.. What a great bunch of people. I'm so honored to be a part of your family. It's always good food, tons of drinks and lotsa laughs when we're together. Loves ya.. The pups had a good time - they got bacon! Teddy is wearing his Miami shirt. Grey doesn't like clothes, so she's au naturel. If you're in South Beach and looking for a rooftop to brunch, lunch or just drinks - Serena Rooftop is the perfect spot. AND SO Instagram worthy. The music is loud, the crowd is gorgeous, excellent drinks, yummy food and the staff are really friendly. FIVE STARS!
My Christmas wish list is all Dior this year. Loafers are this seasons biggest shoe trend, so I had-to-have a pair. These Dior Code loafers are lined with shearling and are OH SO cozy! This staple shoe is getting an upgrade with gold-tone hardware and a little fuzzy. I LOVE this ring. I'm usually a white gold kinda girl, but this one is special and matches the must-have sunnies (next item on my must have list). This ring is no longer posted on the Dior site, so I don't have specific details - I assume it is similar to the sunglasses and dons Jet Hematite Swarovski crystals. It's SO chic. I'm stepping outside my oversized sunglasses box and trying something new - These Dior MissDior B1U sunglasses are embellished with Jet Hematite Swarovski crystals. The dark, cat-eye shaped frames are on trend and the gunmetal mirrored lenses make for a great "need to hide last night's puffy wine eyes"! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Dior woven bracelets. I'm always wearing at least three at any given time. This black and white set is on tartan-trend! AND, I have-to-have the embellished pink one too - A little sparkle for the holiday season. Last on my list - I've had my eye on this little gem since the runway - The black and white Dior plaid Vibe handbag. The juxtaposition of the classic tartan pattern and sporty Vibe style is perfection. Admittedly, I opened the box for a peak and am definitely getting this for Christmas!
I LOVE my Beats Fit Pro true wireless earbuds - Kim K special edition. I'm super picky about my headphones and quality of sound. Country, hip hop, alternative - either way, I wanna hear and FEEL the music. These Kim K Beats are probably the best sound I've experienced from earbuds. No surprise there - Apple purchased Beats, so you're getting the Apple tech and Beats sound. The Kim K "nudes" aesthetic gives the world of earbuds a refresh. There are three neutral colors - Moon, Dune and Earth. With the right skin tone these nude shades are camouflage! I went with the lighter shade, cause I love pink. I've had Beats in the past and moved over to the newer AirPods, BUT, I'm back to Beats.. x Apple x Kim K. The noise cancellation is excellent and the sound is fierce. The vibrating beats of hip hop are intense and vibrant. These earbuds are superior and a must-have.
DiorClub M1U pink mirrored mask sunglasses, D-Vibe Dior Tribales earrings for headphones, Fendi X Skims cropped down jacket, Fendi X Skims loose fitting pants, Dior rose des vents micro vanity case, Fendi Rockoko boots
Fendi, Dior and LV - These are a few of my favorite things! I'm all about the puffy apparel and accessories these days. It's cold AF out there, so bring on the down filled anything. This Fendi X Skims cropped down jacket (may be available at Fendi X Skims) is super cozy-chic. It is a limited edition item - LOVE THAT! I'm always impressed with myself when I snag a hard-to-get fashion item. This coat is SO warm, fashionable and super cushy. I love the 3D effect FENDI SKIMS lettering all over and the contrast interior, also donning the capsule collection print. I am a HUGE fan of athleisure and LOVE joggers. These Fendi FF track pants (available at MyTheresa) don the iconic FF motif and have a fashionable relaxed vibe. I also purchased the Fendi X Skims loose fitting pants (similar to these). Now, I just need somewhere to wear them! It's about chuffin time Dior - I've been waiting for these Dior sporty socks (available at Dior). These come in a medium height and a longer version. It's kinda hard to tell by the photo, but these sporty socks don the CHRISTIAN DIOR signature in gold-tone metallic. HAVE-TO-HAVE. I LOVE Dior woven bracelets. This Dior cuff (available at Dior) is a new take on the signature cotton arm candy. Three times wider, this navy blue cuff is a nice upgrade to the beloved handmade Dior tasseled bracelets. I have been refreshing the Louis Vuitton site everyday for weeks hoping these LV pillow booties would come back in stock. I already have these boots in khaki green and they are SO cozy. I have-to-have these pillow comfort ankle boots in beige too. The interior is lined with the Since 1854 print - The date the fashion house was founded. LOVE! I am SO lucky to have snagged this khaki Louis Vuitton padded Speedy Bandouliere 25 (no longer available at Louis Vuitton). It is the perfect winter accessory. The regenerated nylon has an embroidered monogram pattern and is padded to give a pillowy vibe. I waited two months for this chic handbag to arrived - So worth the wait.

This is a repost from previous years - Oxfam is a nonprofit organization that funds projects worldwide in an effort to end injustice of poverty. The best gift you can give this holiday season is an Oxfam animal gift. The gifts you purchase for friends, family and colleagues is an actual donation. Oxfam will apply those funds where it is needed and the person you've purchased the gift for will receive a vibrant card. Your gift will bring attention to this worthy cause, put a smile on someones face and benefit those who are less fortunate. This innovative, charitable concept is brilliant. I would love to receive a card with a cute, baby chick that says, "I Bought A Dozen Chicks For You". A donation made in my honor is the best present. Oxfam gifts has an extensive catalog of charitable gifts that you can choose from. There are animal, sustainable, water, women and children, education, making a living and emergency necessities gifts. The animal gifts range from $25 to $300 for a tribe of goats. When you choose your gift you have the option to print your own card (download a PDF), eCard (sent via email) or no card. The picture above shows how the printed card will appear. I like to email the cards. The thoughtful designs are well done, colorful and informative. I hope you give or receive an Oxfam animal gift this year. We've all struggled one way or another these past few years - We need to take care of each other and every kind gesture, big or small, counts.
I am addicted to Dior! I have to ban myself from visiting the boutique - Someone take away my internet! I've always gravitated to one designer a season (or a few), but my Dior obsession is anything but fading some seasons later. Here are a few of my must-have Dior accessories. I have this small DiorTravel vanity case in Rose des Vents and love it - It's my most used handbag. SO, of course I had to get another color. This small DiorTravel lambskin vanity case in Gray Cannage is gorgeous and perfect for colder seasons. I'm obsessed with this color. Can't wait till Christmas! The Dior Claire D Lune ring is part of the cruise collection 2022. I'm a fan of white-gold and diamonds, so this palladium-finish metal, with white crystals CD ring is a must-have. This ring is the perfect stocking stuffer - Hint hint.. Another item for the cruise 2022 collection are these Dior D-Zenith heeled ankle boots. These boots were made for me - I messaged my Dior Angel and asked her to get these for me and she replied, 'I already put them aside for you'. She gets my style. These boots have a sporty, yet elegant vibe. These fabulous boots have an integrated sock with the 'CHRISTIAN DIOR' signature - LOVE! The sport-like design dons a gold-finish heel - This juxtaposition is perfect and clearly references the cruise collection vibe. I LOVE LOVE sunglasses. Dior quickly became my go-to sunglasses brand. These modern sunglasses styles are perfectly pink'ish' and on-trend. These DiorSignature A3U nude pilot sunglasses don the new 'CHRISTIAN DIOR PARIS' signature and an updated pilot style. Have-to-have. These DiorClub M1U sunglasses are a little out of my comfort zone and I love them. The rectangular-shaped mask has a sporty vibe. I love the pink mirrored lens combined with the light beige frame with a pink lined detail. I can't wait to wear these.. I tried on these Dior Dway slides at the boutique - They are super cozy. Unfortunately, my size wasn't available. The blue shearling is super cozy. I love a good 'these are shoes, not slippers' style. The Dior D-Vibe Tribales earrings for headphones are everything I love about fashion - Ridiculous, but fabulous AND a must-have. Compatible with AirPods and AirPods Pro, these earrings have a small gold-tone chain with a ring that you attach to our headphones. LOVE! This Dior CD navy bracelet is comprised of woven cotton and white resin pearls. Simple and a must-have. Another stocking stuffer - Hint hint.. I'm not a fan of yellow, but this buttery shade of the Dior micro Lady Dior bag is GORGEOUS. It's absolutely impractical - This bag is super tiny and you won't get much in there. Who cares! I haven't seen this bag up close, but am expecting a 'we have it' message any day now.. If you follow me, you know I'm addicted to white Dior boots. These Dior D-Major ankle boots are perfection. The military inspired boot has wool throughout (they're super cozy) and dons the 'CHRISTIAN DIOR' signature in pale pink. LOVE and HAVE-TO-HAVE!
I haven't posted a My Must Haves list in months! That doesn't mean I haven't been lusting over a few fabulous items. Now that we're getting closer to "normal" life and back to socializing, I'm working on my summer wardrobe and am feeling colorful. This Bottega Veneta padded Cassette shoulder bag (available at Farfetch) is GORGEOUS! This bag is taking over Instagram and so worth the two bags I had to sell, so I could get this one. This spearmint blue color is perfect for summer. This shoulder bag comes in many colors with a leather strap or thick gold and silver chain strap. There's also a non-padded version that's a little less expensive. I'm obsessed with Bottega Veneta this season. The bags and shoes are unique statement pieces. I saw these Givency Paris flat logo slides (available at MyTheresa and Farfetch) a while back and regret not purchasing them. These slides are available in a few colors, but I can't find the purple ones. BUMMER! These slides have a laid-back vibe that's perfect for running errands or having by the pool. I banned myself from shopping Dior in February - the addiction was out of control! BUT, I'm back at it and loving these DiorAct white lambskin sandals (available at Dior boutiques). The "dad sandal" is on trend and there's many styles to choose from. This is THE Summer sandal. This Jacquemus Le Porte Gourde bag (available at Farfetch) is a little silly, but if you like to have water on hand at all times (like me), this is a cute way to "wear your water"! These Rodarte gingham cotton-blend sweatpants (available at MyTheresa) are fabulous! The high-waisted style is flattering and I love the contrast of the pink/white gingham and black/white striped cuff. There's a matching sweater - HAVE TO HAVE! I'm not a big platform shoe fan, but kinda want these Stella Mccartney Giai lace-up espadrilles (available at Farfetch) are SUPER CUTE. The unique style has logo lacing along the vamp that wraps around your ankle. LOVE!
To say I'm obsessed with Moschino and Dior is an understatement. Most of my must-have tops are Moschino and If you follow my Instagram, you know I LOVE Dior handbags and shoes. I purchased this Moschino oversized embroidered logo shirt on sale at Farfetch (my go-to online shopping site). There is stitching on the front and across the back that says Moschino - LOVE! Paired with biker shorts and sock-style boots, this look is chic and perfect for a night out this summer - If we get to go out this summer! I saw these Louis Vuitton Pillow comfort ankle boots on social media before they came out and had-to-have. These cozy boots became available in black and khaki - of course, I went with khaki. They're now available in white - Bummer, cause I would have gone with white. These LV boots are so comfortable. There is structure inside the boot, so even though they look super squishy, your feet stay in place. These pillow comfort boots come in water-repellent nylon with down filling and they're SO warm! Another pair of super cozy boots are the Dior Chez Moi Dior Granville ankle boots. I call them my "Chalet Boots", cause they're cozy and fabulous - perfect for sipping wine by the chalet fire. These ankle boots don the blue Dior oblique embroidered velvet pattern. I have the mini Door book tote to match. LOVE! My favorite boots of the season are the DiorIron ankle boot in white. This style was featured on the runway and on-trend this season. Many fashion influencers are wearing similar styles from other designer brands. Even though there are front and back tabs, these DiorIron boots are a little difficult to get on and off, cause they're super structured, so you might need someone to pull them off - Don't wear them through security at the airport! They're rubber, so you can wear them in the rain and they're comfortable. Yes, another pair of Dior boots - told you I was obsessed. I was hoping for colder weather this season, so I could wear my new Dior D-Venture winter boots, but no such luck. Hopefully next winter. The shearling lining is cozy and will keep your feet super warm. The the velcro fastening and mountain shoe-style hooks, give these winter boots a modern vibe. Imma end on another Moschino t-shirt (I have many). Moschino t-shirts are high-quality and will last years of repeated wear. I prefer the oversized t-shirts worn with joggers, biker shorts or leggings. I'm not a big fan of the color red, BUT love this Moschino Teddy logo-printed t-shirt (purchased at Farfetch). The this is not a Moschino toy bear print is cute and the contrast in colors are chic. Can't wait to wear this one - When we finally get to go out in public!
