Miami Beach

I am so excited to be traveling to Miami this week. I've only visited Miami once and that was about four years ago, so it's been a while. I don't know about you, but I always have a hard time when it comes to packing for my trips. I always end up over packing or taking the wrong things, but this time around I searched for inspiration on Pinterest before I started packing away. I found most of my inspiration by looking at pictures of a more nostalgic Miami circa 1950's and 1960's. As a kid I always associated Miami with Flamingos and the color pink, I must of stumbled across way too many vintage Florida postcards on one of my many flea markets sprees. I love the color palette of these pictures, they are soft, happy and still fresh. I can't wait to post my Miami diary pictures upon arrival, in the mean time follow me on instagram to see my daily posts.
