Do you have a piece of clothing in your wardrobe that just fit’s perfectly and feels great on. Well if you don’t then you must not own anything from American Apparel. I absolutely love their clothing. Their stuff just fits perfectly and is simple but versatile. II have an American Apparel dress that can be worn 12 different ways for 12 different looks. Talk about getting more bang for my buck. And like the name says it’s all made in America not in a sweatshop. Check out my favorite versatile American Apparel dress on their website.

Ft. Lauderdale’s Las Olas Boulevard is the ideal backdrop for this festival, blending an eclectic mix of artists, great weather and fantastic energy. As the second show of the season on Las Olas, this festival brings together longtime favorites with some of the newest names in the contemporary art scene. Life-size sculptures, spectacular paintings, one-of-a-kind jewels, photography, ceramics, and much more make for one fabulous weekend. The event takes place this weekend March 6-7 and Las Olas is only 5 minutes from Alexan Solmar Apartments. You should check it out this weekend!
