this & that

As I mentioned in yesterday's Miami Vice-esque post, Heather and I headed south a few days ago for a quick weekend road trip. Our destination? Santa Barbara! Entirely last minute trip and it came together so beautifully. It's amazing what a little R&R outside of your normal routine and city can do for you. Wonders really! I'm already going through sunshine withdrawals and missing these vivid pink flowers sprinkled around the cute beachy neighborhoods.

The first of many margarita rounds. 

What better way to arrive in Santa Barbara than an orange Camaro? Thanks again to the folks over at GM for the perfect set of wheels for our road trip. We may or may not have indulged in more than our fair share of 90s music in this guy.

A pit stop on the way down. Hey, we never turn down a good wine tasting opportunity. 

The true pièce de résistance of the weekend -- this Proenza Schouler skirt (found at one of my favorite boutiques, dressed) came home with me the instant I saw the drastically reduced price. Just ask Heather, she had to peel me from the sale rack after I spotted it.

    So jealous. I've only been to Santa Barabara once but it was one of the cutest towns. I'd love to go back sooner than later.
