A Quick Bite

This is what I wore to meet my darling cousin Alicia for a bite to eat last week. She's one of my favourite people so chatting and taking photos is always such a blast. The only problem was that the photo taking caused us to run out of time so we had time grab a quick sandwich at Subway. If you ever want to feel inappropriately overdressed, try wearing a yellow mini skirt to Subway. Awesome.

Framework Magazine

Want to see what a few of Vancouver's style bloggers have to say about summer trends and their patio drink of choice? Take a look at page 17 of Framework Magazine's June Issue where I join some really lovely ladies on the blogger panel.

Happy Friday!

I instagrammed this green dress and orange necklace combo before I left on vacation and asked you all if you liked the color combination. I got some lovely responses so I packed it up and wore it on one of my favourite nights on the cruise. Why didn't I think of this sooner? Instagram should make all of my decisions. What to have for dinner, nail polish colors, if I should turn left or right at the stop sign... I won't have to make any decisions from now on. 

If you don't already follow me on instagram and want to get involved in deciding my life, you can find me at missmelissa_k. And just to clarify, if ever there is a question of whether I should go to the gym or go home and eat chocolate... please decide chocolate. The decision should always involve chocolate.

Tourist

I have to admit I kind of feel bad for my family. After years of blogging I have a pretty specific idea in my mind on what I want my photos to look like. They all kind of roll their eyes when I ask them to take a picture because they know I'll rarely be satisfied. Oops. I just have this weird dislike for touristy looking photos haha. I kind of just accepted the fact on this vacation that my photos were going to be touristy... because I was in fact a tourist. Apparently that's a difficult concept for me to wrap my head around.

We went on the Allure of the Seas which stopped in Nassau Bahamas, St. Thomas and St. Maarten. I didn't take as many photos as I normally would but hopefully these give you an idea of what I was up to during my week off!

Bahamas

This is rare. Everyone agreed to be in a photo

St. Thomas

Johnny Rockets for breakfast

Dreamworks themed everything.

St. Maarten

Daddy/Daughter bonding

We were the creepy family that showed up to the Madagascar children's breakfast without any children. Whatever, breakfast was chocolate covered everything and it was amazing.

I think it takes me a little longer than the average person to get settled back into real life after a vacation. At the rate I'm going I think it might take me until a week before my next vacay to get back into the swing of things. But don't worry... I'm all caught up on my pvr'd tv shows. In case you were concerned.

Repeat Offenders

I often have the people in my life (I'm looking at you Dad and sister... and friends... and everyone else) making comments to me about the fact that I have so many clothes. I know that I may appear to have a larger wardrobe than the average girl but I do re wear a lot of the items in there.

I may have an inappropriately large wardrobe but I have 4 things in there I have worn more than once. Take that everyone I know.
