OOTD: White and Tan

I love a white and tan color pairing for summer. 

One of my favorite Spain looks, below:

OOTD: Madrid Photo Diary + True Religion and Loft

When in Madrid, I stumbled upon the most perfect design and home accessories store: Guaimaro.  It was near our hotel, walking distance, and it was the first shop we stopped at.  I didn't want to leave.  Seriously, it had the cutest bar carts, bottles, decanters, vintage books, and brightly accented candle holders.  It was perfect.  I was in home decore heaven.  I left with a heavy heart, and only a few choice items for my little apartment.  

OOTD: Sugar Love Boutique Dallas Dress + Madrid Photo Diary

Sugar Love Boutique sent over this really versatile blue dress a few weeks before I left on vacation.   I didn't get a chance to wear it before, but when I packed it I was sure I'd find a few uses for it.  The print was perfect for day cruising through the city streets.  It's fully lined and flows well.  I paired it with a green cargo vest and some gladiators for comfort.

Ford Beauty Suite and Inglot, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Swim, Miami #MBFWSIM

Just before I left town, I had time to attend a few Swim Week events in Miami.  The Ford Beauty Suite never disappoints.  Ford Artists all gather under one roof, or in this instance, aboard one yacht, so that they can pamper us.  They use the best products (like my personal favorites: the Oribe hair products), to give you a little extra 'something' to help brave the Swim Week crowds.

Wearing Target accessories: Mossimo Cross Body, Target Sunglasses and Target shoes. 

At this event, I got my nails done by Jessica E. from Exhale Spa - in a bright, neon pink.  Perfect for my Spanish travels.

A big thank you to the Ford Artists and to Keurig for my invite.

OOTD: What I've Been Wearing Lately

Vacation time is here.  I'm off in a bit, to another country, to hang by the seaside and forget.

I hope to have so many fun pictures to share with you all when I get back home!

Here are some recent instas of what I've been wearing lately.

Miami Swim week is just around the corner, with kickoff parties starting early next week.  This year, I'll be on a much needed vacation (see you, Miami), but I'll be sad to be missing really fun events, like #EscapeMiami2.

Take a break from the swim week madness on Saturday, July 19th, at the National Hotel.
ESCAPEMiami2 is back this year serving as your go-to for cocktails, swimwear fashion, summer trends, light bites, braid bars, and spa and beauty treatments.  Annie Vazquez of The Fashion Poet, put it all together so that you could browse the latest fashions with the various pop-up shops that will be on location, get mini manis, and, if you drag your man out, he can get a complimentary beard trim while taking down a few Peronis to numb the pain of watching really hot girls prance around in bikinis.

You can see my little mug, along with 40 plus other bloggers, in a photo installation shot by the talented and closeted funny guy, Alex Tamargo of Alta Images.  The exhibit, entitled Our Summer Stories, was a cool way for the bloggers to express what summer fashion means to them.

While I had to crop the majority of my picture, in order to keep it work and law firm appropriate, wearing a swim suit by one of my all time favorite Miami swimwear designers, Luli Fama (I literally cannot get enough of this bikini) was a major highlight for me.

Style File: Della x Urban Outiftters

Socially conscious, LA based clothing brand, Della, has partnered with Urban Outfitters.  The Summer 2014 line, which is currently carried by UO highlights boho-chic pieces: think flowy maxi dresses, rompers, loose shorts, and paper bag pants.

The brains behind the brand infused a socially conscious thread into this line, by ensuring that their employees (who mostly reside in Ghana)  receive fair wages, education, and literacy training via the company.

See some of the new line below and shop it at Urban Outfitters online and in-store locations (Tampa, Orlando, Miami, and LA) starting this week!

If you purchase something from the new line, send your confirmation e-mail to Nandi@DellaLA.com and mention my blog, to receive a gift (either a MacBook Pro case/sleeve or a hobo bag).
