POSHE Travels: Printed Romper

Eat. Pray. Love.

Treasure Beach, Jamaica

It's day two of our serene getaway in the beautiful Treasure Beach, St.Elizabeth. After a late night and subsequently late morning, we went straight to lunch. Our friend took us to a cool restaurant on the beach called Frenchmen's Reef, with lots of energy and some great vibes. It was relax, chill and chat time!
 

I love a cute romper, especially for the tropics. It's such an easy pull together look you can wear day or night. It's no hassle to style because you already have a full outfit and it's generally flattering to a range of body types. The soft neutral tone of this romper from True Light makes the colors of the floral pattern really pop. The keyhole design is perfect for a sneak peek worn over a swimsuit, or bralette similar to the Kensie I am wearing. I liked the contrast of the animal print - a neutral in my book - against the floral print on the romper.  The American Eagle aviators added some cool edge to this cutesy look, and Bridget's "Rose" sandals were the perfect complement of casual-chic. 

My girlfriend, Kaysian, went with a feminine sheer top worn over her Despi swimsuit. She paired it with denim shorts from Abercrombie & Fitch, and accessorized with her French Connection crossbody bag, keeping within a fresh blue color palette. Bridget's sandals, a Michael Kors watch, Ray-Ban sunnies  and Jamaican brand made, Happy Beads bracelets, completed this easy, breezy look.  

Our friendship is over a decade long and we always have such a great time hanging out. Ironically, we met wearing the same thing to the same party and instantly connected. Though we have our individual styles, there is definitely an overlap and mutual respect for each other's unique aesthetics. Best friends don't only play together, they style together too. Stay tuned for out next Eat. Pray. Love adventure.....

POSHE Travels: Knit Cover-up + Floral Shorts

Eat. Pray. Love.

Treasure Beach, Jamaica 

During my trip to Jamaica in January, my best-friend, Kaysian and I decided to take a few days away from the hustle and drama of the city, Kingston,  to get some peace of mind, body and soul in a more natural and organic part of the island, Treasure Beach, St. Elizabeth. This was extra special for me because it's where my mom was born, and where I have some of my best childhood memories. 

Our first morning there, we had breakfast at Jake's - an ultra luxurious, relaxing and gorgeous resort. The food was delicious and the ambiance was so calming and peaceful. Usually, we're chatting away non-stop about random topics, but this time we both were content in being silent and really taking in the beauty that surrounded us. 

I wore a mint green knit tunic from Free People over high waisted floral shorts from Forever21, with the cutest ruffles. My American Eagle mirrored sunglasses - which was a staple the entire vacation - and Jamaican-made Bridgets "Rose" sandals. The sandals are a coveted and sought after item in Jamaica and are sold all over the world. The quantities are very limited however, so it's not easy getting your feet in a pair. I'm working on having a curated collection available on the store for summer, so let me know if you guys like them. 

Kaysian is wearing a floral shirt dress from Free People with Bridget's "Cutaway" sandals and a blue French Connection crossbody bag. She added some cool girl factor with a pair of Ray-ban sunnies. 

We spent the rest of the day exploring the area, talking with the locals, swimming at another hot spot Jack's Sprat and hanging by the pool with a little music, magazines and some Pinot Grigio. 

It was a relaxing day, nurturing to the soul, that ended with a magical sunset.  I can't wait for our next "Eat. Pray. Love" adventure.

POSHE Travels: White Shirt + Blue Jeans

Eat. Pray. Love

Montego Bay, Jamaica

One of the most infamous combination, the classic white shirt and blues jeans is an iconic style. It's the most stylish yet basic go-to look that has the versatility to be dressed down or dressed up. The exact elements can go from one extreme of casual to the next of high-fashion on the style spectrum. Tell me I have 15 minutes to get dressed and I don't think twice about what works. 

After a day of lounging and relaxing at Iberostar Resorts in Jamaica, my appetite was at an all time high. This look was a quick fix for a mellow night of dinner and dancing at the hotel's private club afterwards. 

The white boyfriend shirt from Joe Fresh was cool and casual. A pair of navy blue skinny jeans from Forever21 balanced out and worked great with the oversized shirt. Red Christian Louboutin 'So Kate" pumps elevated the look to dressy and added some sex appeal. An edgy fringe purse from Monika Chiang complemented the overall look. I accessorized with my gold Bulova watch, diamond studs and a cute pearl ring from the Union Square holiday market. (click images to expand)

POSHE Travels: Little Red One-Piece

Eat. Pray.Love

Montego Bay, Jamaica

I’m an island girl with a city chic heart but a deep passion for the jet-set lifestyle, engulfed with palm trees, beaches, sunshine, splashing waves, bright colors and pina coladas. I’m lucky to have the tropical island of Jamaica as my homeland and all these things a convenient pleasure to experience. As NYC temperatures fall below zero, what better way to escape than taking a trip to the tropics. 

A weekend getaway at the all-inclusive Iberostar resort was my first stop for some well needed R&R. 

This red one-piece by La Blanca was perfect for a day of lounging or some active sailing on the seas. It’s old-hollywood silhouette makes it glamorous and sophisticated. The ruching adds some design dimension that is a flattering fit for different body types. I paired it with some metallic gold perforated leather espadrilles sneakers by Isaac Mizrahi before switching to my Bridget Sandals (coming to the store), mirrored aviators by American Eagle and a gold Bulova watch.
