Luxe Fashion: Neon

Okay, so I'll admit, I was not eager to jump on the neon bandwagon at first.  The last thing I want to achieve is a 80s fashion flashback...but check out these inspiring photos below...I think we can all agree, without the permed hair and leg warmers, neon can be totally chic!

Of course the easiest way to incorporate a little neon is on your fingers and toes! There are so many fun colors out now!

Luxe Lifestyle: A 30th Birthday Weekend

I am one blessed girl! I didn't just have a birthday...I had a whole wonderful birthday weekend!

The celebration started on Thursday night at our house with the besties for champagne and presents! :)

We then headed to a great, new local restaurant, Table 26 for dinner and dessert! 

Packed in heading to dinner!
The food was delicious! And the atmosphere and decor is great!

The birthday festivities continued with an incredible weekend away to The Cheeca Lodge in Islamorada, Florida! I've got to give my husband props for planning this bday getaway! He did good! Lot's of fun, sun, food and yummy cocktails!

Thank you to all my family, friends and especially my husband who helped make this once special 30th birthday celebration!!  The past year has been amazing! I've traveled to some incredible places including France, Antigua and Mexico.  Got engaged to the most wonderful man! Spent most of the year planning our beautiful wedding! And saying "I Do!" was definitely the highlight of my year!  God has blessed me in so many ways! Its hard to imagine this year could be any better! But it has been a awesome weekend so far...And I have a feeling there are some pretty exciting things in store for the year ahead!  I look forward to seeing what they might be!
