Serving you Miami Realness

Posted on February 18, 2016

Rule #1: Blend in.

SHOCKER. Because usually I would never advocate for that, and definitely don’t on a day-to-day basis but when traveling it is my first requirement. 🙏🏼 Don’t look like a tourist PUH-lease. When traveling to a new city I always aim to assimilate into their environment and style of dressing…while still being myself of courseeeee. So, Rule #1: Blend in…but not too much. 😉

So how do the “Miamians” werk it on the reg? Skin, skin and more skin! FINALLYYYY my chance to be slutty!!! I thought… hahahaha jk, but not really. 😁 “Trash it up or trash it down” as my dad always says (yes, you read that correctly, D.A.D) orrrr “class it up and class it down” another of his favs that also speaks volumes of wisdom here. 😜✨💃🏻

Definitely embodied that 👆🏼 vibe for my night style but like a true tropical climate, the weather was unpredictable and unfortunately totally messed with my big plans of getting disgustingly tan. I’m talking the old woman from Something About Mary, cause thats what people look like in Miami right?!?! Raisins in white linens from head to toe?! 😂😂 Anyway so onto plan B…

Considering the Miami recipe: one part classy, one part flashy, and one part trashy….shake and stir…now serving you a batch of Miami realness. 💃🏻✨💁🏼💥🌴

😜 Ingredients below:

Nothing like a good palm tree print to hint at the trashy tourist vibe, but without falling off the deep end (🔙 crucial). Because lets be real, these pants are vintage Versace so they add the class to trash 😄
Some touches of gold for flash ✨✨ and an old flamingo watch from eBay (totally trash since its broken but it looks dope right?!)
The rest is just totally practical! Comfort and ease. OH! And white bag for vacay – always.▫️🌴▫️☀️▫️

Helllooooo vacay!…ok seriously though, when’s the next one?! I’m ready!!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼🔜😎🙏🏼

PS: Raid your mom’s closet if you’re going to Miami–guaranteed something appropriate 😉 (Thanks for the pants mom👌🏼🌴)
