Here are a few of the favorite places my family has enjoyed over the past year and a half. Fortunately, Baby Z is a super good traveler...not that she had a choice! Baby Z started her travels at the young age of 2 months when we made her tag along to the beaches of Florida...

 Yep, thats Baby Z having her first layout on a sunny beach.










And this is Baby Z at Epcott Center after spending a few days lounging seaside. Even though the weather was extremely hot and humid I still consider it one of my favorite vacation spots thus far.











My all time favorite family vacation spot thus far has been....wait for it....

My Current Perfume Wishlist...

Versace Yellow Diamond.
If you love Versace Bright Crystal you are bound to love this newly discovered and lusted after perfume of mine, Versace Yellow Diamond. It smells surprisingly similar to Bright Crystal yet amazingingly different at the same time. The packaging is goregous reminding me of some type of French wallpaper that would be found in the likes of Versaille.This one will run you anwhere from $65.00 to $90.00. Sephora currently has a limited edition gift set containing an Eau de Toilette spray, an Eau de Toilette roller ball, perfumed shower gel and a perfumed body lotion. You can view the kit here.
Notes: Citron, Pear Sorbet, bergamont, neroli, orange blossom, freesia and mimosa.

YSL Paris.
I am a sucker for gorgeous packaging. I am a sucker for items that remind me of France, in particular Paris. I love perfume. So yes you can see why I am lusting after this pink bottle of Parisian pefection. The rose adorned box is pretty enough to keep on my vanity right alongside my currently owned perfumes. A 4.2 ounce bottle of this runs for $95.00 at Nordstroms.  It's a rosey floral scent that transports me to some spring garden somewhere in France.
Notes: Eglantine Rose, peony, lily of valley and white musk.

Valentino Valentina Eau de Parfum.
Valentino describes this unique smelling fragrance as, "Inspired by a new generation of Italian It girls, Valentina embodies a rebellious Italian heiress. Cool, free minded and careless, she drives us on her quest to experience today’s Italian dolce vita—the good life—with utter freshness, irreverence and a whole lot of attitude." That description alone makes me want to run out, purchase this and douse myself in "Italian heiressness". The bottle is simplistically beautiful and costs $80.00 for just under 2 ounces and $108 for just under 3 ounces. Nordstroms.
Notes: Calabrian bergamot, white alba truffle, Amalfi orange blossom, tuberose, jasmine, wild strawberry and a touch of amber and cedar.

What fragrances are your vanity tables currently calling for?

Alas, these pictures are not my own since I am still in the "lusting after" stage instead of the "owning" stage.

A French Hiatus...

This blog has taken a very successful hiatus due to my travels in France over the end of February and beginning of March. I loved France dearly and missed my blog dearly as well.

 Traveling with a 9 month old was not only feasible but it was truly enjoyable. I will sprinkle in some posts over the next few weeks on what my experience was like. I learned lots about traveling overseas with a young child and seeing the world though a little ones eyes.
