I haven’t shared much of my trip to Jamaica, but it was a blast. It was for Social Media on the Sand, and was filled with a lot of rejuvenating moments alone and with good friends. I love to dress up a little for dinner when I travel. My good friend (and photographer) Kate took these photos for me before dinner one night.

It had just finished raining (pouring, dumping) and most of the walkways were covered in water so I gave up on wearing shoes.  The dress I’m wearing is by Cuyana, and it’s one of my favorite versatile pieces in my wardrobe. Most of the jewelry I’m wearing is borrowed from Ariel Gordon Jewelry, another one of my favorites. I’m thinking of picking up the necklace for a holiday party next week.

Getting real for a second, this week has been hard. Really hard. While respecting my family’s privacy, I’ve been out of town most of this week for a family emergency. Everything is okay now, but the healing process is taking longer than I’d like and I’m trying to be as patient as possible while still remaining supportive and loving. It’s been so very hard to balance time between work, family, more family, and tending to my own personal well-being. Next week I’m expecting more of the same. Give your loved ones an extra squeeze today.

I don’t like to dress up, but I do like to travel. I could really use a tropical getaway about now.

Wow! I really love your look in the evening in Jamaica! You look stunning and classy! This is my kind of style, I really love wearing a maxi dress like yours.

That dress is beautiful and I love the simple elegant jewellery you’ve paired it with. Hope you find a little time for yourself soon!

It’s refreshing to see a post like this because all I’ve been seeing are clothes for the winter! You made me miss the summer. I think this dress is perfect! It suits you well too!

I really love that black long dress. You look so beautiful and fabulous. I want to have that dress.

That dress is absolutely gorgeous! It looks beautiful on you. I would love to have a black dress that looks just like that.
