Exotic Vacation to South Africa!
















Hope you had a great weekend! Thinking about travel and my favorite destinations.....one of them being South Africa. My hubbie and I went on a safari in south africa for our honeymoon. It was truly an amazing experience. LOVE to do it again but lack of time due to my son and business. Traveling with our son on a safari is out of the question for now.....maybe when he's 15 since thats when kids are allowed on safari trips. Here are some of our adventures!! Hope you all enjoy the pictures...will be posting more....so stay tuned. If you have any questions and thinking about a safari trip.....I can definitely help with suggestions.

Ready for gardening?





Hello! I was looking back at my pictures and noticed how wonderful and relaxing it was planting flowers and looking at them every morning out my window and deck. I LOVE gardening and such a mindless hobby. These photos are of  I when I was pregnant with Payton. Its only Feb but April/May, is when we plant these beautiful flowers. I cant wait!! Most of these flowers were bought from Jayson here in chicago. They have amazing selections. I noticed that the ones from Home Depot do not last as long....and the quality is not as great. You get what you paid for! Whats your spring hobby?

Hi Everyone!!! Hope you all had a good week and TGIF. I had a date with my girlfriend to have lunch at the Peninsula this afternoon. I got my mom to babysit and rearranged a few things to catch up with my friend.....but she had to cancel due to work issues. So...already downtown and in the area....what to do....so I decided to head over to Zara. Found cute basics for my son and I. I cant believe how affordable their clothing is and the quality is amazing. Sorry for the awful photo quality! I have been obsessed with fur and boots this winter season. My apologies for the repetitive look. Any fun plans this weekend?

Spring is in the air?

I love this weather! It got a bit chilly and windy later on in the day but it was pretty much a nice day.....again. We are expected to get more freezing weather :( I had lunch with my friend Phillip at Gibsons He owns tails in the city here in chicago. They have amazing goodies for your furry friend!! It was so nice to catch up with him. I ran some errands while my awesome mother babysat....she's so amazing!!! Thanks mom!!!!

I love getting dressed every morning.....fashion is a part of my life and always have been. Growing up with a mother who constantly updated her wardrobe to keep up with the fashion trend....I was inspired  to be just like her. I use to sneak into her closet and try on her furs, shoes and handbags. I guess its genetic!!!  Who inspires you? Oh....my favorite fashion bloggers....atlantic-pacific, fashion toast, sea of shoes and blonde salad. LOVE them each in a unique way. I am inspired!!!!

The perfect grey boorts!

BOOTS: Bowne

 So with all the end of the season sales.....I was unable to find the perfect grey boot to complete my wardrobe. I looked and looked and over this past weekend....I found these jeweled boots for almost nothing. It was 75% off and not my size but I loved them so much....I made it work. LOL....when it comes to fashion, we chicas always find a way!!! I am posting 3 blogs today cuz tomorrow is a busy day for me. Hope you all have a great mid week wed!!!!

My favorite mia bossi diaper bag!

So my company along with my partners were featured in this magazine http://issuu.com/kokolivin
g/docs/koko_living_magazine_premiere_issue.  

I didnt know how important a diaper bag was until my little boy arrived. I have attached my favorite diaper bag...the Maria Toffee. Its a great color combo and goes with everything I wear. Its big and light....and so chic. I get compliments on how great my bag is but most people have no idea its a diaper bag. Take a peek at these pictures! 



My Valentine!

Hope you had a great valentine whether it was with friends, family or your furry friend! I had a amazing valentine with my husband and son. Came home and roses along with a beautiful card was on the kitchen counter. Apparently the huz came home at noon to deliver the flowers in person but I wasn't home.....at work which he apparently forgot. He cant keep up with my schedule he says. LOL! Valentines day is fun but Im not a huge believer in exchanging gifts and etc. Having dinner with my family was enough for me! I feel blessed to have a loving family and amazing group of friends. What else could you ask for? How was your valentines day?

Double Booked

TGIF? Well for me....it was a friday where I double booked a date with my husband and my girlfriends. I love the weekends because I get to spend time with my girlfriends and date night with my husband. I didn't know that friday would be the night to do both... So my husband and I had dinner at Bob San and then went out to Mercadito for drinks with my girlfriends. It worked out after all.... I got to eat 2 times friday night :)  Do you ever make the same mistake and double book?
