It's All About that Beach, Bout that Beach

Guys!!! My gosh it has been a minute since I was last able to post on Patti Cake!  Real life got busy, and then there are the technical issues that I am dealing with, but I won't bore you with that.  Let's just pick up where we left off, shall we?  Okay!  We went to Florida!  We were on Sanibel Island to be specific.  I witnessed miraculous, glorious sunsets every night during our cocktail hour, otherwise known as the magic hour if you're a photographer.  Seriously I could not snap enough pictures during that lighting, everything looks- well, magical!  Haha!  This is one evening before going out to dinner.  I loved this outfit because it had a lil bit of fancy flair, but was still laid back enough to wear on the beach!  Also loving my Jessica Fang necklace!  I discovered her on instagram and I am delighted by her accessories!  Be sure to check her out!

Floral Crop & Double Slit Palazzo Pants

Around 4th of July I stopped in at Urban Outfitter's summer sale.  I happened to be one of the first people there, and boy did I score some goodies!!!  The combo below is all Urban and so flowy and comfy, perfect for a warm summer day.  I know some people are anti palazzo, but I however am embracing this comfy trend.  For now.  ;)

Cropped Out

Hope everyone had a fun Memorial Weekend!  We took advantage of the wonderful weather to walk around town and then grilled out with friends.  And since we are all self proclaimed foodies, it was a fabulous grill out!!!  I will give you a glimpse of the fresh strawberry margaritas my friend Jen and I made.  The peace d'resistance was definitely the homemade cinnamon whipped cream that she brilliantly decided to place on top.  I know what your thinking, whipped cream on a margarita?- but yes.  Always yes when it comes to whipped cream.  Channeling my inner Kim K. for this outfit, as she is the queen of body form dresses.  It was the perfect weather to test out my new crop top!
