Hawaiian Days and Havana Nights #FashionFriday

I am always on the hunt for a new dress, especially if it is on sale.  When I saw this Rodarte dress on Amazon (that’s right Amazon from their luxury stores) I was super intrigued by it.  Honestly I didn’t know if I would love it or hate it, but I had to try it.

It turns out I absolutely positively love it!

Even if I didn’t live in Florida, I would love it, but it definitely fits with the summer-y tropical vibes of the place I get to call home with the floral print, flowing cape, and a hint of sparkle.  Because sparkles make everything better 🙂

It’s almost impossible not to pair this dress with fun accessories in shades of pink and red and with even more sparkles.  It’s a party dress begging to be worn to fun, tropical places like Disney’s Polynesian Resort, where I wore it the first time.  If this dress doesn’t say luau I don’t know what does.

And then I wore it to a pop up from Café La Trova, a bar located in Miami that was recently named the sixth best in North America.  It’s a Cuban inspired bar, and I think my fun floral vibes went so well with the theme of the evening and such a cool experience.  If you want to read more about it, be sure to head over to Tasty Chomps for a full recap of the event!

I can’t wait to wear this dress again because it kind of turns everything into a fun, tropical party.  I kind of think I bought the last one in the world, so check out some other tropical inspired dresses below.

    That’s a terrific dress for Florida! Or anywhere hot, with palm trees. 🙂

      Locations with palm trees do have their own fashion vibe, don’t they?

Currently craving a giant slice of this Espresso V Currently craving a giant slice of this Espresso Vanilla Bean Tiramisu Cake. Then again, when am I not craving it??? This cake has all the flavors of tiramisu and is covered in a drippy glaze that packs a second kick of coffee. So that means it's totally acceptable to eat this for breakfast, right??? ☕😋
