By Elma B. As I mentioned to you in my previous blog post , I want to share with you what to expect when in Jamaica. I know that summer is coming-up and that many of you are planning your ultimate summer getaway. So, if the Caribbean, and Jamaica are on your mind, here is what to expect... Before the storm on the white sand beaches in Negril Firstly, decide on the type of vacation you want, exploration, relaxation or both? Definitely, Negril, Jamaica is for relaxation on the beach and your occasional fun and refreshing water aerobics and other traditional water sports.

Also, watch out for sun flies, which are worse than...

By Elma B. One of the most beautiful times on the islands of the Caribbean is watching the sun drop below the ocean's horizon. I wanted to share with you this spectacular moment. I suggest waiting on the beach with your cameras to capture this awe inspiring moment, like I did with countless of other island's visitors. As you can see below, I was on a lagoon, so I could capture Jamaica's greenery and dazzling emerald waters.   Below, I am wearing a black short jumpsuit, which is held together by lace details, and I paired this simple chic garment with a vintage floppy hat.  Hope you enjoy my photos and the beautiful scenery of Negril, Jamaica as much as I did while waiting for the sunset on these white sand beaches. Until next time, stay beautiful and fresh, xoxo fashionistas!

Hotel Le Bristol is located close to La Madeleine Hotel Le Bristol offers a variety of desserts, including some of the most delicious macaroons; however, it was hard to pick just one and we finally decided on trying all of the goodies with a mixed scones, cookie, and sandwich plate. I paired up this assortment of deliciousness with a refreshing mint tea and enjoyed great conversation with my friends Théophile and George. Our scones, cookie and sandwich plate George and I politely presenting our best face before we dove into this stack of de...
