J.ING Off The Shoulder White Top
An off-the-shoulder blouse will dress up jeans and take them from day to night. This is the kind of outfit that looks just as good with flat sandals, as it does with suede pumps or skinny stilettos. J.ING introduced this blouse to their summer collection, and I love it. Off-the-shoulder tops are so flattering – the neckline and the frilly sleeves drew me to this one immediately.
You can wear this top with skirts, shorts, pants, or jeans. It is available in white or light blue, and I am wearing it in size small (I sized up). You can use my code JINGAnaF15 to obtain an additional 15% off.

GAP’s SUMMER MUST-HAVES
Happy Thursday, everyone! The months are flying by! I truly can’t believe that Memorial Day weekend is in two days! I have been updating my wardrobe with new pieces that are easy to wear from morning to night. These TIMELESS and CLASSIC styles are just too good! Here are five items from GAP that I know you will love as much as I do! Enjoy 40% off your order plus an additional 10% off when you shop GAP’s Memorial Day Event!
High Rise Cheeky Straight Jeans: I usually wear skinny jeans, but during Spring and Summer I prefer straight jeans. I had been searching for new jeans and tried on every single pair available at GAP. These were my favorite! I love the raw hem, the light indigo wash (exactly what I wanted), and the distressed detailing. They are snug at first, but then adjust to your shape – I LOVE the fit! I sized up to a 26.
Perfect Shirt in Poplin: GAP’s classic shirts are so awesome that I got two! The fabric is super breathable, comfortable, and lightweight. I will be wearing them with shorts, jeans, and over swimsuits. I love white for summer and if you tie this shirt around your waist it looks super cute! Fits true to size, I am wearing XS.
4″ High Rise Button Fly Denim Short: Finding a good pair of denim shorts is not the easiest, at least for me! Denim shorts are my go-to item during the summer, and I wear them Monday – Sunday! These ones have the perfect length, come in a variety of colors, and are a must-have for going to the pool or the beach! You might need more than one in your summer wardrobe! I sized up to a 26.
Swim & Accessories: There are so many options to choose from at GAP! Bikinis, one-piece swimsuits, a long cover-up, beach bags, straw hats, and beach towels – all of summer’s essentials! Take a look at my favorites below!
White Summer Dress: White dresses are a huge trend right now! Since so many of you have been asking me for options, here are many cute designs that will be included in GAP’s Memorial Day Event. Which would you wear??

My First Summer in New York
My First Summer in New York
Yesterday my fiancé and I celebrated eleven months in New York City (already?!). Time flies even during a pandemic, and now it’s official – I’ve experienced all four seasons since moving from the Sunshine State to the Big Apple last September.
While I was convinced that I would miss Florida’s tropical weather, that has not been the case… You might ask: how come? Because the forecast has read 90+ degrees more times than I had anticipated.
One of the silver linings of this unprecedented “summer in quarantine” has been spending time with him. I’ve mentioned before that during our relationship, we did about a year of long-distance while he finished his master’s degree. Now, after spending the last four months sheltering together inside our apartment, I can honestly say that I prefer this over not seeing him for weeks at a time!
With gatherings limited and travel restricted, we got creative: we cooked my favorite recipes more, ordered take-out once a week (mostly Thai or Greek food!), enjoyed cocktails on the terrace (almost every night), rode bikes around Central Park, watched tons of Netflix series (we both enjoyed “The Spy” and “Unauthorized Living”), took the pups on longer walks, and handled lots of wedding tasks.
I appreciate the conscious process of slowing down daily, and of admiring the beauty around me (something that I credit my older dog for teaching me more than seven years ago). The free time that we’ve been gifted with during this pandemic, has allowed me to practice more of that. And just because Summer 2020 has been different in more ways than one, it doesn’t mean we can’t get creative and do more of what we love.
I hope you and your family are staying safe during this time. Lots of love… Xx

Blue Ruffle Midi Dress
All the heart eyes for this dress!
Ruffle Midi Dress | White Heel | Rose Gold Necklace | Rose Gold Cuff
Earlier this month, I was browsing online for blue summer outfits for an upcoming trip that we have, and came across this open-back blue dress, and this ruffle midi dress. Although both have the perfect length and shade of blue, I ended up choosing the latter.
I like how the ruffles continue to the back – it makes the dress super attractive. Because this dress is not formfitting, I have a feeling that I will be wearing it more. I am wearing an XS here, and it fits very well, but I am thinking that I might shorten the adjustable straps in the back a little bit (an easy fix). Which of these two dresses would you have chosen for yourself?
Red, White, and Blue Bathing Suits
Happy Thursday!! Even though this 4th of July will be a little different, we can still wear a red, white and blue bathing suits! Last year we spent the holiday with my fiancé’s family, his aunt did a big cookout at her home, and many of his aunts, uncles and cousins visited during the day. She has a pretty cool set-up outside by the pool, with a tiki bar, outside bar and TV!
This year we will quarantine ourselves, grill outside on the terrace around sunset, and try to get ahead on some of our wedding planning tasks (he needs a tux!).
I am obsessed with the details on this bathing suit! I ordered this one-piece swimsuit to wear on 4th of July, as well as a basic straw hat to protect my face from the sun!
I feel that the style of the red bathing suit is pretty classic and timeless, so I know that I will be wearing it in the future.
Hope you stay safe this 4th of July holiday…
