Outfit: Wynwood Walls & Perrier

For this set of pictures, I headed over to the Wynwood Walls in Miami to take a peek at what has been going on there lately.  Every few weeks or so, the building exteriors and wall murals change with a rotating assortment of talent being showcased.  Street art in our city has been elevated to a different level since the inception of the Design District and Wynwood.  

In recent years, there has been an incredible surge of life and creative energy in Miami.  Whereas before we used to see buildings "tagged" up with ugly, monochromatic, gang-related symbols and words - we now have meaningful and vibrant street art.

In a few weeks, Art Basel will be upon us, and all of the current street art will change once again.  I'm glad I snapped a few shots in front of this wall of flowers before it's replaced.

Perrier teamed up with three famed street artists from around the world: Kobra from Sao Paolo, JonOne from Paris/New York and Sasu working from Tokyo.  The goal? To create street art labels for limited edition Perrier bottles and cans.  They each designed something that was true to their own aesthetic, and their creations were paired with the Perrier product.

Outfit: How to Wear a Plaid Dress in Miami

How amazing is this wall mural in Wynwood, Miami? A few weeks ago, Nicky Hilton (yep) was in Miami and she posed in front of this gorgeous piece and posted it to her insta. I was so drawn to it that I scouted it out this weekend.  I found it on 25th street, in Wynwood, off of N.W. 2nd avenue.

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: Work Wear Fashionable ESQ Style + Razon Eyewear Launch

I attended the launch party for a socially conscious sunglasses brand called Razon.  They're based out Miami and inspired by other brands who target social awareness and responsibility (ie: TOMS). You will throw down $305 for each pair of sunglasses which are manufactured from different types of wood (rose wood, and bamboo, for example).  Be mindful of the fact that from each purchase, Razon donates three pairs of eyeglasses to individuals in third world countries who would otherwise be unable to afford prescription lenses.  They can do this because they partner with Eyejusters, a technology which allows people to literally correct or tweak their prescription eyeglasses by twisting an adjustable knob.

OOTD: Hair Turban How To

A hair turban is a great accessory to keep around if you're a long haired girl, like me.  My bangs are growing out now and they're annoying, so I like to keep them out of my face by wearing a top knot or pony tail.  But because I prefer the way I look with my hair down, (and I try to look presentable), I will not always venture out in public in a messy bun.

In comes the hair turban, the chic hair accessory that can extend the life of your blowout.
