Hello again,

I had a pretty good weekend. I was fortunate enough to meet up with an amazing group of Miami bloggers at a Miami Spice luncheon hosted by Ashley Lorraine of "A Sassy Woman," and Shilesa Chandler of "Hey Girl Friend," at City Hall restaurant.  It was an amazing event and I look forward to seeing more of what these two women have in store for the blogging community in Miami. 

If you are not familiar with Miami Spice, it is a large culinary event in Miami. From the months of August and September some of Miami's finest restaurants offer three course meals at a flat rate. Lunches are $19 or $23 dinners are $33 or $39. Read more about the month long showcase of fine cuisine here. 

Here a few pics of the luncheon and of what I wore to the get together. 

With one of the hosts for the luncheon, Ashley Lorraine of "A Sassy Woman."

With the founder of "Hey Girlfriend" I can not wait to interview her for Worthy. 

As my entree I had the meat loaf. It was delicious. My appetizer was seafood gumbo it was pretty tasty. 

I can't get enough of this dress.
 Dress: Nicole Richie for Impulse at Macy's, Shoes: Gifted,  Necklace: Forever 21, Clutch: Gifted, Skull Bracelet: Gifted and Shades: Macy's gift bag.

Stuck in my head

Hello, 

It's been a while. I think all my posts start that way now. 

I am not going to make any more promises about blogging consistently. I am just going to get it done. I don't know about other bloggers but my blog was one of the most helpful tools that I could use to improve with my confidence. Essentially it made me happier.

My mother made this faux leather distressed skirt. I love it. I like things that have character. As you might already know, I have been busy with work. I am so happy to be working in my field-officially. It has only been two months. Pray that they continue to like me and that I make through my probation period. I have one more month. The good news is now I have more responsibilities in PR.  So I am becoming more versatile as we speak. Worthy is evolving. There is a lot more behind the scenes work going on. So I worry that our presence online is being questioned. But if you support Worthy and read my blog, trust me when I say that we really are working. We are just trying to make sure that we keep improving. We only believe in progression. 

Thanks for checking out the post. I hope you like the stuck in my head look. The top is actually from JCpenny, the head band and shades came from Macy's I got them in a gift bag at the Nicole Richie Launch Party. My necklace I get questioned about is from Burlington Coat Factory. The shoes were gifted and BSAMS made the skirt. 

You are worthy XOXO

Nicole Richie's Impulse: Private Preview

So this week Macy's hosted a number of events. I was fortunate to attend two of them to cover for the Miami Times. The first event was a private preview for Nicole Richie's new clothing line. It was awesome to meet so many amazing Miami Bloggers. South Florida really shouldn't be underestimated when it comes to the blogging world. I still meet so many people who say, "You have to move to New York for blogging and blogging events" but this group of women served as proof that style and creativity can be found anywhere.

We were able to put a few items on hold until the launch party the following day. I loved everything.

This dress was everything to me. I loved the color. Rosy from Accidental Sexiness looked AMAZING in this short green number. We all agreed this was like a perfect South Florida holiday dress.

Huge fan of this blogger, Ria Michelle. I interviewed her for an article when I first started working at the Miami Times. She looked amazing in this faux leather jacket from the line. 

Hope you like as much as I did. Make sure you check out the Impulse collection which is available exclusively at Macy's. My next post you will get see my final purchases. 

You are worthy XOXO
