Moody Style: Ahoy

Here’s a quick post of the outfit that I wore on the Fourth of July.  This playful nautical halter dress was described on Anthropologie’s website as an irresistible charmer adorned with schooners and anchors.  And I couldn’t agree more.  I was so happy when I scored this dress last winter for only $30.00. I love finding deals after the season.  I just had to hold on to this little number for a little while to make a big reveal for the red, white and blue holiday.  I can say this dress has been my favorite Fourth of July outfit by far.  Do any of you have a favorite outfit for the Fourth of July holiday?  Let me know in the comments.

Moody Style: Sassy in Stripes

I can’t believe that June is already over.  I feel like I say this every month, but I’m genuinely surprised how fast time is flying by.  This past week and a half was a world wind between traveling for work and traveling for personal reasons.  I traveled to Pensacola, Orlando, West Palm Beach over a matter of several days and then took an unexpected trip to Jamaica to visit family.  I just got back home today and I’ll be home bound for the remainder of the week.  I’m really looking forward to relaxing and celebrating the 4th of July with friends and family.  I still don’t know what we’re doing but I know I’ll have a good time.  Do you have plans for the 4th of July? Let me know in the comments.

Moody Style: Antique Floral

I’m a little late in posting about my obsession with J.Crew’s Antique Floral collection, but that’s okay, right?  Better late than never is what I always say.  Anyways, back to me talking about my love for the antique floral pattern.  I think that this pattern is so versatile and feminine. And it seems that I wasn’t the only one considering there are only a few pieces available on the site.  I only wish I had gotten the pencil skirt before it sold out. Do you have a favorite pattern from J.Crew that you wish they would bring back? Let me know in the comments.

Moody Style: Denim and Stripes

Last night, I just realized that I haven’t written anything on my blog yet for the month of June and we’re already on the 9th days.  Yikes, I don’t know where the time went.  I need to get better about that.  Well, I’m flying down to Miami again for another work trip, so I figured I’ll start writing this post during my flight.  I should be doing actual work for my job, but who wants to do that on the plane.  I’ll be down in South Florida until Thursday, so be sure to check out my Instagram for more up to date posts of my comings and goings.  I’m pretty sure there will be another Jugo Fresh visit while I’m down there.  I’m obsessed with their açaí bowls.  I’ve tried to recreate them at home, but my version is no match for their delicious goodness.  Have you ever tried to recreate a drink or a meal at home after thinking about it for days, weeks or even months?  Were you successful with coming up with your own copycat recipe?  Let me know in the comments.

Moody Style: Anchored Down

I just got back in town from a quick trip to Dallas, TX for a work meeting.  I’m literally home for a night with enough time to unpack and repack for another trip.  Traveling for work was fun and a little glamorous the first few times I had to do it.  However, the unending parade of hotel rooms, living out of my suitcase, and standing in long lines for airport security is quickly losing its charm.  I can see how people can get worn down from doing this for too long.  The only way to maintain my sanity is coming home and sleeping in my own bed even if it’s just for one night.  I love feeling anchored down with some normalcy and the comforts of home.  It always perks me back up and gets me going for the next trip. Do any of you travel for work or pretty often? How you do recoup after a long trip? Let me know in the comments.
