going on vacation is the best. i mean, there’s the obvious – bottomless cocktails, warm weather, sand… but then there’s the reason i love traveling most: the outfits!!!! i always pack my statement pieces when i go away, and when i’m flying to warmer climates, i try to capitalize on the chance to show some skin – but keeping it classy takes some strategy… which is why i’m featuring a backless, 3/4 sleeved dress #sponsored by shein on the blog today!

woooooo february has been one heck of a month, and the madness is only just beginning!!! i apologize for my lack of actual blog posts these days, but rest assured i’ve been doing a whole lot of life-things that will only inevitably result in awesome future posts! for example: i just spent the last several days living in the lap of luxury, poolside in riviera maya, mexico. it was unreal, and i’m in the process of writing up a whole synopsis, but in the meantime i thought i’d leave you with a few of my favorite tops from throughout my trip – all sponsored by tobi!

just before ringing in 2018, i spent the weekend at a cozy cabin in upstate, new york. i attempted skiing… (more on that at a later date), made s’mores, and messed around in the snow. it was the coldest weekend of the year – topping off at a whopping 10 degrees on the warmest day of our three-day excursion… and i made sure i packed the wardrobe to battle the freeze.
