Hola friends…I know, I know…no entries since the Oscars? What kind of blogger are you? I am the kind that is bringing Winter Break back baby…I just recovered from my fabulous trip to Mexico with our fantastic friends.  Where there were no phones, no Internet, no work…just the roosters, the dogs, the beach and friends.

 We decided to join our lovely friends Corinna & Rob as they celebrated their wedding in a charming fishing village north of PV.  It was absolutely incredible and so relaxing.  Traveling with friends can sometimes be difficult. But, of course, our friends rock to travel with.  Even more fun for me, was all the incredible style we had in this little town.  It helps that the bride is a designer friend of mine and the our traveling companions are in the style industries…but it is nice not to be with group that doesn’t resort to khaki shorts and baseball caps. 

There was a lot of prep involved with me going on this trip. We planned it last minute so I only had a month in the gym to get my self comfortable in a bikini.  I did actually try the Bliss Spa products for this purpose…I couldn’t exactly tell if it helped? But somehow, I felt better and that is all you need right? I had to dial in my wardrobe as well as my husbands and yes, I know, what do you need if you are going be by a pool or on a beach drinking cervazas all day? Well,you know.  My gal pals all had fabulous looks as did our guys and we all had a fab mutual admiration society going on.  Our guys definitely appreciated the effort and we girls had fun…My cutie pie bff ,V, had a line that was so fun I adapted it…”has there been a picture of me taken in this outfit yet?” Now this may all seem superficial and not relaxing, but I tell you, it made it so lovely as we all had confidence in ourselves that allowed us to let loose and have fun…and that my friends is the ultimate lesson.

We all adapted Mexico names that ranged from Coco to Rico and Juan Carlo.  My name is Rita…as in…All of this just helped melt all the pressures of our other life away. A winter break rocks and it has to be done in the most relaxing atmosphere…I recommend it to all.

Off to Portland now to participate in Crave’s Shop 08 conference for retailers…stand by for a full report. RL or Rita till the tan fades…

p.s. later this week I will post my fav finds for shopping and prepping for a bikini clad week…stand by
