Move. Eat. Learn.

As the summer reaches its end, I look back at all I have done these last couple of months. I traveled to Europe for the first time, and was exposed to so much culture, food, and life. My wonderful friend and roommate Beatriz sent me these videos she found on the internet, and I must say they are nothing short of amazing. They remind me of my summer, and hopefully reflect a life full of endless new experiences.

Mamma mia, Italian shoes!

Those of you who know me are well aware of my love for shoes. If possible, my closet would be crammed with all types of beautifully crafted shoes of all colors, heights, and styles. During my recent trip to Italy, my shoe appreciation expanded. If anyone can appreciate a good pair of shoes, it's the Italians :) Here are a couple of pictures of some amazing shoes I came across.

Baldinini

Versace

Chanel

Salvatore Ferragamo

Farmer's Market

People are walking around, the scent of fresh flowers lingers in the air, the bright colors of gathered fruits and vegetables catch your eye. What's not to love about farmer's markets?

Summer Trends

Spring and summer days are bright and sunny, the flowers are in full bloom, and the world seems to burst with color. It is only accurate therefore, that spring and summer fashion portray these aspects. Below are some pictures my sister Lucía took at the Gainesville Fashion Show that predict this summer's trends!

Mother's Day- Botanical Gardens

Mother's Day is a wonderful holiday where mothers can feel special and recognized for all their hard work. Although we might not always say how grateful we are to have them, Mother's Day helps us to express our gratitude for our mother's unconditional love. This Sunday, my mom wanted to check out the Naples Botanical Gardens, and we were overwhelmed with how beautiful it was. Pictures below!

Photo Booth Madness

Ahhh! I can't believe I forgot to put these pictures up! Oh well, better late than never! I love taking pictures of everything and everyone, but it is sooo much fun to take pictures with everyone together! We went sort of crazy at the photo booth that Gainesville Fashion Week set up during the art show in April!
