The Oxford Exchange: Intellectual. Chic. Modern. Sophisticated.

Hi Lovelies,


A couple of weekends ago, the hubby and I visited an extremely chic business called The Oxford Exchange, in Tampa.

I absolutely LOVED this place!! It's a restaurant, retail shop, bookstore, coffee shop, tea bar, and commerce club all in one! Whatever your inclination, this place will probably provide a service that  caters to it.

 It was such a relaxing environment and it tickled many of my senses. The smell of freshly ground coffee beans wafted from the coffee bar. The colorful bookcases beckoned me toward the titles. The sea of voices from the people inside prompted a mini celebration in my mind. :)

This place was perfect! This is the kind of place I can take my kids to in the future; a nice alternative to the library. Our visit was rather brief as we had other plans that day, but I plan on going back until I have patronized each service of this establishment. Enjoy the picture diary. :)

Orchids!

Hydrangeas!

My Look
Blouse (Thrifted)
Leggings (Thrifted)
Shoes (Target)
Purse (H&M)
Earrings... can't recall :(

H&M has some really nice pieces for men! My hubby's tangerine
v-neck is from H&M. I think these v-necks are great staple
pieces for men in any season, but especially in the
Spring/Summer time. 

This is how I see him in my head. :) Love this man :)

Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog today!!

Hello Lovely People,

I've recently launched a new fashion series on my YouTube channel entitled 'Thrifted Fab' ! In this series I will be styling thrifted items into everyday looks. There will be a new video and corresponding blog post up each week. It's going to be exciting!!

OAN: I haven't been posting and uploading as often as I would like because its finals time! You may not know this, but I am a college professor as well, and it gets extremely hectic for me around this time. As much as I like to read, grading papers for several classes is no fun!

Only the good Lord has been getting me through this season. I am so looking forward to the summer! My workload will decrease and I will be posting both frequently and consistently.

Isaiah 41:10  fear not, for I am with you;  be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you,  I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

R&R in Miami!!! :)

So it wouldn't have been a proper business trip without some rest and relaxation! I'm so glad that my family was only 45 minutes away because it was so nice to see them!

Got a chance to see my sister!! :)

Loving the texture in her outfit. ;)

The house where we stayed was on the water, so the backyard was absolutely lovely. We grilled steaks and had eggs with them on one of our mornings there. There was also a nice hot tub in the back yard, which the hubby and I quickly took advantage of! 

The hubby :)

Slouchy Top: Forever 21
Wide-Leg Pants: Thrifted
Neon Yellow Bag: Dillard's Outlet
Sandals: Target

Before we left Miami we payed a visit to the Bal Harbour Shops. Because it's an outdoor mall we got to bring Prince with us. He had a blast.

 One of my favorite shots! :) My hubby has skills with the camera. :)

                                        They had a live tank in the ground with fish and turtles. So pretty!

The way the trees are landscaped made this mall into a lush, tropical, shopping oasis. It was so beautiful we decided to grab lunch before hitting the road.

Caramel Macchiato

Lobster Bisque

Steak Filet Sandwich

Crab Stuffed Ravioli & Shrimp

I had a fantastic time in Miami...I always enjoy going there because there is ALWAYS something to do! Can't wait 'til next time! :)
