This might be my new favorite “just in case something fabulous happens” outfit ❤️

It started as a Valentine’s look… but the more I wore it, the more I realized how insanely versatile it is. Date night? Yes. Wedding guest? Absolutely. Dinner with friends or any special occasion where you want to feel a little extra? This one’s it.

The leopard slip skirt is such a fun statement piece, but it also dresses way down. Throw on a denim button down and sneakers and it’s perfect for travel days or running errands. And this red cashmere sweater? So cozy, so flattering, and on repeat all winter with jeans or chic slacks.

Basically… one outfit, about ten different lives 💗

This is the kind of dress that makes you want to book a sunshine getaway.
☀️
This @cabanalife Life Myers Relaxed Dress is named after Fort Myers, the city you fly into before heading to beautiful Sanibel Island. Every time I wear it, I think about white sand beaches, shell-filled walks, miles of bike paths, and that rare Florida charm where nature takes center stage and life feels a little slower.

The palm print with soft pink and green accents feels tropical but grounded, and the silhouette is easy, flowy, and flattering without trying too hard. I love the ruffle collar, v-neckline, bracelet-length sleeves, and the fact that it’s made with UPF 50+ fabric for built-in sun protection. And yes, it has pockets, which always feels like a small gift.
🙌🏻
This is one of those dresses that works for vacation days and real life alike. Comfortable, pretty, and full of sunshine energy.

Sunshine, Sanibel, and a dress that just gets it ☀️💗

I just arrived at beautiful @casaybelresort on sunny Sanibel Island, and it felt so good to see the sun and feel that warm island air on my face. There’s something about being here that instantly helps you slow down and soak it all in.

If you’re planning a warm-weather getaway, resortwear with sun protection truly matters. @cabanalife is always my go-to because every bright, happy style has UPF 50+ sun protection. I love this blue and white tiered dress with the prettiest embroidery at the hem and neckline. Easy, breezy, and perfect for vacation days.

You can use code SUZY15 for 15% off at Cabana Life. And if you’re dreaming of the perfect getaway spot, keep @casaybelresort on sunny Sanibel Island in mind.

If NYC weather reporters say it’s “bitterly cold”… you listen. 😂 🥶
On top I looked chic and very NYC at the holidays: knit ponte pants, cashmere sweaters, faux-fur lined booties, and cozy designer scarves. But the real MVPs? The base layers you don’t see doing the heavy lifting underneath. Warm, smooth, minimal bulk, and zero outfit-ruining lines. Add a full-length down coat and fleece earmuffs and I was good to go, even when the wind tried to steal my joy. 😉

Moral of the story: style is fun, but warmth is strategic.
