Grace Bay Beach Turks and Caicos Caribbean Vacation Paradise
Grace Bay Beach - Turks and Caicos

Got a case of "gotta getaway?" Thinking beach, calm water, tranquility, quiet, and relaxing...well, I recommend a vacation escape to Turk and Caicos. Warm sun, light on tourists (especially during low season), and with one of the world's best beach - Grace Bay.  You can't go wrong with this Caribbean gem.

Fond Contemporary American Restaurant Philadelphia Gourmet Fine Dining



Foodie fit and always top notch, Fond restaurant in Philadelphia never fails to deliver.  Recently enjoyed a Tuesday night anniversary dinner at the cozy contemporary American restaurant.  Flavorful, fresh, and at times ogasmic, chefs Lee Styer and Jessie Prawlucki passion for food is evident in every bite.

Service at Fond is very much on par with the delicious food. Dining room manager Tory Keomanivong and the wait staff are knowledgable, dedicated, and simply wonderful.

Gourmet food nirvana, always at its best, I highly recommend trying the tasting menu if it's a first visit. Making a selection at this Philadelphia restaurant gem is always a feat on its own, but whether it's the wild boar pate, the pork belly, or skate, you won't be disappointed.

Casual Friday Style skinny jeans from TJ Maxx, foral tropical top from J Crew, cardigan from J Crew Factory, belt from a Calvin Klein dress, and sandals from DSW

Top: J. Crew
Cardigan: J.Crew Factory
Skinny Jeans: T.J. Maxx
Belt: Marshalls (from a Calvin Klein dress)
Sandals: DSW Shoes 

This Friday's causal style comes by way of J Crew, TJ Maxx, and DSW.  Usually during this time of the year, a pair of jeans wouldn't make the casual friday cut.  The weather forecast had the high at 80 degrees. Ended up being around 84 degrees and being a bit humid.  Anyways, here I am looking fab and relaxed.  All pieces are older items from my closet. Probably the last time till mid fall before I rock a pair of jeans, too warm!  All pieces are older.  Check out my similar look links:
