SociaLife: Memorial Day Weekend

If you're still saying there's nothing to do in St. Louis, clearly you must live in a cave.  I'm typically the stay at home type, but this weekend was filled with all sorts of fun stuff to do. 

The bestie and I started the weekend off right with Sex and the City 2 at the beautiful Moolah Theatre.  I will admit, I was a tad bit extra with the plunging neckline and Manolo Blahniks just to go see a movie, but for Carrie Bradshaw and the girls, I think I get a pass.

Quality time at the pool with my lil man :-)

Had a awesome time with my "Sweet Face" at the Jill Scott/Maxwell Concert . . .

 . . .followed by a stop at S.L.U.M Fest.

And to finish the weekend off (and officially start the summer),

"Less is More" is definitely the motto for some as we quickly approach the summer months.  Here's a few playfully seductive looks from one of my favorite spots to visit when I'm vacationing in the Windy City-AKIRA.   All looks can be purchased online at http://shop.akirachicago.com and each for less than $100!

SweetHoneyDip ChocolateBrownSugah Sea Salt Scrub - Carol's Daughter

SweetHoneyDip ChocolateBrownSugah Sea Salt Scrub - Carol's Daughter

As a strong believer in exfoliation, and healthy skin care in general, I have tried dozens of scrubs to maintain soft, youthful skin. I was totally caught off guard when I received this scrub as a gift last year. Upon first whiff I had to resist the urge to taste this chocolatey concoction of chocolate, honey and sweet vanilla bean. The brown sugar crystals polishes away dry, dull skin while the natural oils penetrate and moisturize. This scub is a definite must have for revealing beautiful summer skin.  This delightful treat can be purchased at Carol's Daughter or Amazon for $34.
