Endnotes:
Yesterday was a real vacation day – no hidden articles in my beach bag! I spent half the day trying to add some color to my Midwestern skin and the other half the day walking around the port shops. I got lots of complements on my necklace from all of the port-side jewelers I visited. (Some new items to be premiered in the coming weeks!) I needed comfortable shoes that could get wet and could take me miles on my feet. I quickly exchanged these flip flops for a pair of less practical flats and added a cardigan before heading out to hear some live music.
I’ve added a detail of my incredible backdrop because it is much more beautiful than any outfit I could ever pull together!
