Today is my birthday and it's Friday! So excited to share this post with you. I wore this outfit to our wedding tasting 2 years ago and one of my friends suggested I post it here. I am so glad she did! I bought this maxi dress years ago at Forever 21 and I absolutely love it. It is extremely versatile and pairs perfectly with sweaters and jean jackets. 

Tonight we are headed out to dinner with our friends and then out for more celebrations after. I plan to spend Saturday relaxing at the beach {fingers crossed the weather permits} and enjoying a few days off. I will be sharing my birthday outfit on the blog next week, so keep an eye out. I hope everyone has a great weekend! 

Thanks for reading. 

A Midi Moment...

I found this mid-length razor back dress at Nordstrom the other day and I am absolutely obsessed. I also bought it in the dark blue color, but it comes in like 7 other colors too. This dress is so comfortable and easy to wear I could do anything in it. I highly recommend it if this type of dress is something you gravitate towards. 

You have also seen me wearing this hat here and here! I have got a little carried away recently and have been pairing it with a ton of outfits. 

The sunset at the beach was so beautiful that night. I am so lucky to live in such an amazing place with the beach close by. Although summer can be hot, this Florida girl could not handle the crazy winters up North. I love that I can wear dresses like this almost year round. 

We are off to Rome tomorrow evening so this will be my last post for a few days. I plan on uploading pictures a few times throughout the trip, but if you follow along on my Instagram: alinamsmith you'll be able to see more photos from our trip. 

Thanks for reading!
