Hey Cuties,
As promised this is part two of my three part Miami recap. The first part was the SOAR Retreat, that was the reason for my trip to Miami. This part is about the celebration that took place while we were there. On our third day {10.18.} I turned 36 years old so I extended my trip a bit to celebrate. You know I love all things Miami, I went earlier this year and shared all of the deliciousness that took place.
Selfies in the car are a must, we had a really dope ride while we were in Miami. It was the perfect red, it went well with my signature red Ruby Woo lip.
The third part of my Miami series is all about food. I will give you the low down on our eats. #FatSnacks
I don’t play golf but the golf course was absolutely beautiful.
The sign says Trump National; Trump has the branding game on lock here. I so respect it.
Usie on the golf course are a must.
I told y’all the ride was cute. Check out The Style Medic for more details.
We didn’t get the chance to hit the pool. but it was really sexy. Bar and all.

This beautiful fountain sits in front of the main building of the Trump National.
Hello, Happy Birthday. I was rocking my No. tshirt, because No. is a complete sentence. Learning that has been a struggle so my birthday was the perfect day to remind the world. This was the last day of the conference which is why I was so extra bout my attire. FUN FACT: I got this tutu from JoAnn Fabric.
I toned my look down and turned up the celebration. I kept my crown on though.
The beach had a nice breeze happening; it was perfect for our photo ops.
A little cousin love in these waves.
Pose for the camera, click, click.
I turned 35 last year and they pulled out all of the stops. Turning 36 would happen without much fanfare, it was calming and refreshing yet relaxing. My turn up is much different at this stage of life and I had turned off by 10:30 every single night.
I had a great time, I attended a great event, hung out with my girls, ate amazing food, did a little shopping and had a lot of cocktails. Cheers to 36, a year that will be even more amazing than the last.
How do you celebrate? Chat with me in the comment section below or FB, IG or Twitter.
Happy belated birthday! Glad you have a blast with your girls and enjoyed your trip. My birthday celebration involves spending the day with my loved ones.
Thanks K. I had a follow up celebration with the fam when I returned home. The 3 year old planned it. lol
