I Spot a Lavender Wall

July 24, 2016

I couldn’t leave Clearwater without finding some colorful wall to take some outfit shots against. As we were driving around town we spotted this beautiful lavender wall. My sis was kind enough to put on her photographer hat and snap some shots:)

Hope you’re having a sunny Sunday wherever you are:)My comprehensive exams are two weeks from tomorrow. Ahhhh! I’m nervous but it’s an excited kind of nervous. I’m feeling pretty good at this stage. There’s still more articles to read and more practice writing sessions to complete, but I feel like I’ll be prepared come August 8th. Pray for me though!

Clearwater Outfit Day 1

July 20, 2016

To say Clearwater was humid would be an understatement! I’ve never done bikram yoga before, but I think I’m much better prepared for it after having gone to Clearwater. The air was dense. Fortunately when I was packing I figured as much and opted for loose, flowy, and breathable clothing.

For the first day I wore this sheer leopard dress that I got from TJ Maxx a few years ago. Usually I wear the dress buttoned up with the belt it came with and a black bodysuit underneath. Well this time I forgot to pack the belt. I didn’t like it buttoned up without the belt, so I opted to leave it open. I ended up loving the look. Happy fashion accident.

I felt so beachy!

Check back throughout the week to see what else I wore:)

Chi Travels to Clearwater

July 11, 2016

A few weeks back I was in Clearwater, Florida for a social marketing conference. Can we pause for a moment and celebrate the genius of choosing a beach front location for a conference? Why isn’t everybody doing this?? I must admit though that it made it hard to focus on the presentations knowing that the beach was literally just a few steps away. As I caught a shuttle to the hotel on the first day I saw a sign that said Clearwater is the #1 beach in the US. Whether it still holds that title I don’t know, but the gorgeous views were undeniable.

My sister met me there so once my presentation was done, we made a mini vacay out of it and it was exactly what I needed. We had such a good time laughing, eating, and hanging out by the beach. Comps preparation have been extremely stressful and I was feeling so burned out. This trip really helped me recharge. Ever since I got back I’ve been more productive, more focused, and more optimistic. Note to self: beach trips are good for your health. I ended up taking tons of pics of the views, the delicious food we ate, and my outfits.

Check out some of the beautiful views below.
