Outfit deets:
* Dynamite jacket (old) which you've seen with leggings and a scarf, with denim in one of my favourite outfit posts of all time, belted with skinny pants (what was I thinking?), three years ago with my favourite snood, with a sweater dress & booties, and with flared denim.
* Zara thin-knit sweater (bought recently during the semi-annual sale).
* Zara pants which you've seen with an amazing pair of heels.
* Forever 21 booties (new!).
* Accessories: Forever 21 purse, The Bay necklace, Gorjana bangle & MK thick bangle and sunglasses.
I saw these booties on the Forever 21 website about a month ago and picked them up in store a couple days later. I love them! They are definitely one of those purchases that look more expensive than they are, and are nothing like I own--so $40 was well justified.
You guys know I'm a huge neutral lover, so this outfit is totally me, yet professional enough for a business casual environment. I could also see these booties with a snug dress in black, navy or maroon for a night out.
Hope you're having a good week, it's almost the weekend!

Hello hello! I'm back from Barbados (as of late last Thursday) and spent my remaining three days off catching up on stuff around the house, laundry, unpacking, and of course some fun and shopping in there too.
I'm still going through the over-500 photos I took, but I promise to narrow it down and will share a travel-diary tomorrow. I also took tons of video and am currently working on a recap of the trip that I will try to keep under three minutes (to some fun island music).
Thank you so much for being patient with my lack of posts for a week--I know that can be annoying or frustrating, but at the same time, it's the first time in over four years where I went on vacation and truly kicked back and didn't schedule posts--which was kind of nice. I definitely felt a little guilty and you guys were always on my mind, but hopefully we kept in touch through Instagram at least (see our IG vacation album here).
Anyway, without further adieu, here is a peek at my weekend...
Long nails--sort of! I think going on vacation with a manicure helped me stop picking at my nails knowing I didn't have nail polish remover to take it off once it chipped. I did bring a bottle of the polish I wore--Essie's, e-nuf is e-nuf--for quick touch-ups, but when I got home it was exciting to see some length. In this photo I'm wearing OPI's, Lincoln Park at Midnight which is one of my faves.

Hello! I know it's been a few days since I've checked in but I'm seriously enjoying this vacation and trying to disconnect as much as possible (I mean, besides sharing photos to Instagram every time I get a wifi connection and checking my Facebook when we come back to our home-away-from-home for naps). I had planned to share a weekend recap with you but I think it's best if I just group the photos together for a Barbados recap instead, once I'm back.
Today was our last full day as we leave tomorrow afternoon. We got up around 9am and Marco and I went to breakfast on our own to a cute little spot up the St. Lawrence Gap called Happy Days. From there, we padded down to the beach where our friends slowly joined us and we alternated between lying on the beach and swimming in the ocean--what a life, right? The biggest worry: what to eat next. I don't want vacation to end!
On that note, I'll let you go as it's official nap-time here at the house which I've been partaking in on the daily despite not being a huge nap person. Tonight we're headed out for (more) Bajan food and to see some live music. Hope you're having a great week!
