Whenever I travel, I focus on two things: comfort and style. Living in Florida, cruising is one of my passions--and the most convenient place to sail from is Port Canaveral (only 45 minutes away!) I am passionately "Loyal to Royal" (visit my travel page to learn more about my favorite ships!) 

This will be the first of a series of posts this week highlighting my 2014 cruises--and come spring, I will unveil a whole new cruise series with posts from various ports-of-call.

This past June, I chose to board the beautiful Enchantment of the Seas in my favorite Tory Burch Zoe Tee. The Ankara Blue pattern was perfect for a day by the ocean, and I adore carrying my Mini Ella Tote in Yellow Daisy. It is such a great purse to carry all of my essentials--iPad, perfume, wallet and even my Lilly Pulitzer agenda book.

My accessories, of course, are nautical inspired--with my favorites being the seashell and sailboat Alex + Ani bangles. The seashell connects us to the ocean and the water's energy, while the sailboat represents peace in times of change--as well as celebrating the adventurous spirit.
