Pool Side Harem

Shoes Purchased from H&M- They have a jelly strap across the toes, the backing of the shoe is leather with a Velcro strap. The washed green harem pants and sheer razor back top are also from H&M! Very comfy and classic colors. 

Dutch Gingerbread and Tea

There isn't anything like fresh Caribbean ginger bread and an island tea.

Gingerbread originated in Europe and was made with preserved ginger for a sweet and different taste.
"In Medieval England gingerbread meant simply "preserved ginger" and was an adaptation of the Old French gingebras, derived from the Latin name of the spice, Zingebar. It was only in the fifteenth century that the term came to be applied to a kind of cake made with treacle, an uncrystalized syrup drained from raw sugar during the refining process, and flavored with ginger. Ginger was also discovered to have a preservative effect when added to pastries and bread, and this probably led to the development of recipes for ginger cakes, cookies, and flavored breads"

Pattern Print Mixing

For months I've been eying these lovely pointed flats with the an open back and ankle strap. 

I recently purchased these flats from Aldo. The Lucyna flats are the perfect summer shoe. Aldo describes them as "aztec inspired flats are the perfect blend of ballerina and sandal."With my obsession over pointy flats and bright colors that stand out, an outfit with this shoe will definitely pop! 

First Date Attire

Rule One:  Dress for Comfort

We don’t mean donning some sweats, or (god forbid) Crocs, we simply mean that you must be comfortable in whatever you’re wearing, physically and emotionally.

So that means:

• No sky high heels, unless you’re a pro at walking in them and know they aren't going to kill you.
• No new outfits that haven’t been road tested - you don’t want to find out half way through the night that your skin-tight skirt has an unfortunate way of riding up as you sashay across the room.
• Nothing that you can’t sit comfortably in. A bodycon dress might seem like an amazing idea, you won't give a great impression if you're shifting uncomfortably in your chair all night.

Rule Two: Keep the Mystery

Your mum probably told you to show off either legs, or cleavage, but not both at the same time, and to be honest she was probably on to something.

On date number one, your aim is to be the smouldering,sophisticated, fun, intelligent, witty and alluring catch of a date that this guy is lucky to be seen out with...

But showing off a bit too much too early can unfortunately shatter this image. We're not saying that you should dress like a nun, nor are we saying that showing all is necessarily a bad idea if that's how you roll.

But by revealing just enough to get him interested, but not enough to ruin the sense of mystery you can be sure to almost hear him dialing your number for a second date as you walk away. 

Plus, you can always save that dress for the third date...

Rule Three:  Dress for the occasion

Number one rule of planning your first datedressing - never let it be at a surprise location.

For one thing it's not such a great idea to meet someone you haven't really met before at an unknown location...

So, find out the name of the venue and Google it to get an idea of the vibe. You’d hope that if there was a dress code your date would tell you, but that won’t necessarily be the case so - always best to be proactive.

We don’t need to tell you of the horrors of dressing for a mood-lit bar when you're really going for a walk and picnic in the park. Not ideal.

Rule Four: Be yourself

Never try and dress like someone else on yourfirst date. If you’re a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl then don’t go and force yourself into a fuchsia bodycon.

Similarly, if you have tattoos and piercings, don’t cover them up. Your date needs to know who you are from the off.

If they don’t like your style then they’re clearly not the one for you.

Rule Five: Feel Amazing

The most important piece of advice to give is to feel amazing in what you're wearing no matter what.

If you can do that, then your date will get that vibe too and will respond well to your confidence.

Whether that means you have to slip on a pair of Spanx to flatten any lumps and bumps, or stand in front of the mirror doing self-affirming chants, we don’t care.

All that matters is that you know you look hot, hot, hot and those dates will keep on coming.
