SRQ

We're moving to Sarasota!

Happy Wednesday friends!

Travis and I have an exciting announcement…we are officially moving to Sarasota, FL!

If you’ve been around a while you know that I was born and raised in Sarasota and left 10 years ago when I left for college and haven’t lived there since. This is so so meaningful to me as I haven’t lived anywhere else that I considered home and Sarasota has and will always be home to me! I left the city thinking there was a better place for me and at that time I had to learn the hard way that SRQ was my place.

2020 has been rough but it’s also brought so many great things for Travis and I. Travis has a new job where he works remotely and I started working for myself a few moths ago so I can work anywhere as well, what better time than now to make a move we have been longing to make for years now! We aren’t people to say anything until we know it’s for certain. So we took a day trip to check out apartments in Sarasota to check out our options and sure enough we found the perfect place and got approved that weekend!

I can’t tell y’all how happy I am to be moving back to my city, my home! I have never felt more at home than in SRQ and I can’t wait to experience my favorite city with my husband by my side! I’m excited to be close to my parents again and some of my best friends there is nothing more exciting right now!

That being said I hope y’all are ready for lots of home décor and new posts about our new city!

Orlando, it’s been real, thanks for the memories!

Bachelorette Weekend Recap & Mini SRQ Travel Guide

Happy Wedding Wednesday!

This week we are talking everything bachelorette party weekend! I chose to have my bachelorette party in Sarasota, are you surprised? Let’s be honest I’m a Sarasota girl through and through and I had to have my bachelorette weekend at the beach, no place I rather be than here! This post is about the weekend but also a mini travel guide for some fun things to do if you are ever in Sarasota!

First off my girls killed it with the hotel and the decor for the weekend! We stayed at The Sarasota Modern, and it was an instagrammer’s dream, everything was beautfiul and picture perfect and I can’t wait to go back! My party was tropical themed so everything banana leaf and pineapple which I’ll share below with all my favorite treats to munch on over the weekend!

A must while in SRQ is to hit Selva Grill especially for Happy Hour! They have my ALL TIME FAVORITE Cesar Salad and the drinks are amazing too! *Word to the wise get there earlier, it’s a poppin spot* We also hit some bars on Main, which I can’t attest to much as I’m not a bar girl so we didn’t stay long, but we did have a celeb sighting at one of the bars, see if you can’t guess who it it below :)

We also of course hit Daquiri Deck on Siesta Key and had to take a photo at the beach because what is a trip to Sarasota if you didn’t go to the beach, right?! Highly recommend checking out the Daquiri Deck if you’ve never been, it’s a staple in town, especially if you’re going for a beach trip! They have great drinks of course and the food if yummy too!

Lastly we only hit one local breakfast spot, but if you’re ever in town make sure to stop at Station 400 they have amazing breakfast and lunch and the food is out of this world. The whole vibe of the downtown location is just like a train station, it’s the cutest! Highly recommend!

Sharing some snaps from the weekend below and will have a fun photoshoot from the weekend coming soon! We are 4 months away, next stop bridal shower!

T-Shirt Shop Series Take 2: Look 2

In case you haven't noticed pineapples are still a huge trend and this look embodies the pineapple and foiled trends that are currently happening. In the last T-Shirt Shop Series I brought you another pineapple look that was more bold, unlike this one that is more toned down. This has been one of my go to looks this summer especially on Sundays when I'm running around doing errands. You can't get more simple than jeans and T-shirt like I've said many times before but it's true and throw on a hat and it's the ultimate laid back look perfect for busy days! Like always pieces will be linked below and let me know if you love pineapples or a different current trend!
