I was so inspired when I went to Italy and Switzerland especially Lake Como. Everything there is just absolutely beautiful and looking at these pictures again inspires me all over. You guys can watch a little 20 minute and something video on my Youtube of my trip to Italy and Switzerland. JR and I had so much fun eating pizza, gelatos, and going on that giant slide down the mountain. Go see for yourself!

We stopped at a chocolate factory in Interlaken, Switzerland. Of course I picked like 6 different flavors and ended up really only obsessing over the caramel filled one. Swiss chocolates are everything you'd imagine plus more. Do you see my cute nails? Can you believe they're press ons bitch! YES! For this trip I was like I don't feel like getting acrylics, I'm just going to get some press ons and call it a day. So every time I changed outfits, I changed my nails. Don't judge me, aesthetic. LMAO. How gorgeous is this scenery? This was the same day we rode the mountain coaster.

Right after taking this picture in the middle of Switzerland, my boyfriend attempted to teach me how to drive stick shift. First, we started driving on a military only road and had no idea until a military jeep came up to us and told us we couldn't be there. Then, we attempted again on a road where the were lots of cow and obviously for me, this was very difficult as I constantly get distracted by cute animals. I pushed through though and I actually did better than I thought I would. The first time he tried to teach me was in Iceland a few years back, at night time, in a slanted parking lot. That didn't go so well. lmao. Anyways, I'm excited to move back to NY only because of the in-between, semi-cool weather. You know there weather where it's not scorching hot and humid but also not freezing with snowfall. Photo Sep 27, 12 33 25 PM

Ahhhh this was on mine and Jr's 3rd year anniversary. We were in Italy drinking red wine (when I say we, I mean him) haha and just having dinner. We went and got gelatos and took a cute picture for the gram. I'm going to put out a vlog soon with our trip to Italy/Switzerland and in the video it shows how difficult it really is to eat those cone gelatos. I should've gotten mine in a cup and called it a day but noooo, I had to have one of these cute tourist pics.

Anyways, theese are my go-to pants when I want to look like I dressed up, but also don't want to wear jeans, but want to be comfortable like sweatpants except not as hot. I actually found them inside JCPenny in the Queens Mall one day when Jr and I were shopping with his mom. I found a link for them at Zappos, they're black taper zip pants. I'm wearing Nike prestos with an adidas top. I'm lawless.

On the last day of our trip to Italy, we drove to Cinque Terre. Junior actually suggested this place. It wasn't even on my itinerary. I'm dumb, I know. haha I'm glad he had us stop because the view alone was STUNNING. Every corner you turned was picturesque. I wore this blue wrap dress, which to be honest, I don't even remember where I got it from because it's been hanging in my closet for 2 years without me touching it. I did gather a few of my favorite wrap dresses at the moment below. ASOS has a really cute plus size denim dress and PLT has this white wrap dress with red hearts printed all over it. I may get it now just to wear on Valentines Day. Every place I went in Italy and Switzerland, I ordered a desert because I'm on vacation and why not? I have to say that EVERY restaurant we went to, they had a chocolate cake with melted chocolate. I really appreciate how universal a chocolate lava cake is no matter where you travel.

“The road to power is in taking responsibility. Your heart, your life, and your happiness are your responsibility and your responsibility alone.” -Will Smith

A while back I saw Kourtney Kardashian wearing pants sort of like these that cut off around the ankle, fit nice around the hips, but then flare somewhat out and I was like yesssss girl! Although we have entirely different types, I know she's short like me and if I set my mind to it, could make it work. Anyways, I wore this look on our drive from Switzerland to Lake Como. For this trip, I literally packed only 3 pairs of shoes. I usually always bring my all white vans along with me just because they pair with everything so easily and also show off my ankles, which I love doing lol. I was taking a look at Target and saw they had the cutest plus size utility pants like I'm wearing but in a dark black finish. Do you see this pizza we ate? Phenomenal. Someone please take me back to Italy.

Photo Jun 03, 10 56 17 PM I love me a good swing dress, especially with a cut out. I got this one from PLT but pretty sure they sold out so I put a few similar ones below. I wore this to the Northern part of Santorini where we visited Amoudi Bay. This was probably one of my favorite places. The water was incredibly clear, the food was amazing and came out quick, and the sun setting was indescribable. I definitely recommend going here. They also have really great seafood, duh...because it's a bay. I really enjoy the name Amoudi Bay because for one of my Instagram captions I titled it A Moody Bae. LMAO a little word play for you but that's really how you pronounce it.

Most of the time in Greece I wore ZERO make up. I only wore it when I did my actual Ted Talk performance. Let me tell you how I STILL broke out anyways haha. This was before my skin was mad at me so I was glowing. These mesh coverups are my favorite because you can still basically feel almost naked when you walk around but it's also not indecent exposure. I looooved how many Jeep like cars they have over there so I'd snap a picture every chance I could. This was above the place we were staying at. It was overlooking the water at the highest point.

I feel like nothing is better than a good pair of distressed denim shorts and a white top. I usually go for something even more casual like a basic white crewneck tee but decided for Greece I should make it a little more dainty with this corset like top. I shot the denim look right outside the place we were staying at. This is also the same red swimsuit I wore in a previous post. I saw this view and instantly knew I wanted a smooshed buttcheek picture here haha! All of the blue and white during this Greece trip really inspired me.

This was one of the first days I was in Greece. I first went to Stavros Niarchos Cultural Center in Athens to rehearse my Ted Talk. It's so beautiful inside and you can also take an elevator up and oversee the city. I really recommend it. After my Ted Talk rehearsal which was terrifying (I'll explain the whole story once the video is up) we went straight to see The Acropolis of Athens. Seeing something of this magnitude just makes you realize how small you are in the world and humbles you. Well, for me it did. Thinking about how long it's been there and how so many people before you built it is mind boggling. The marble is also super slippery. Can't front that I almost busted my ass a few times haha! The photo of me on the beach is in Santorini. After my Ted Talk, we flew to Santorini and this was Kamari Beach, the closest beach to our Aribnb. The ground is black rocks so again, BRING SHOES! haha. I can't stress it enough. The have a little bar on the beach here where you can order really good tasting smoothies. Bring a beach towel or if you want to rent the chairs and umbrellas you can too so bring cash. There were kids jumping from the cliff which looked really fun but now that I'm 30 I figured it wasn't in my best interest lmao. My swimsuit is from ASOS by the way!
