Travel Tuesday: Hotel Granduca

Hi friends! Today’s post is all about this beautiful hotel that I stayed in last week when I went to Austin! 

Hotel Granduca is out of the city in Hill Country and you can see the Austin downtown skyline from the hotel. It’s a gorgeous hotel modeled after an Italian villa and it’s just simply packed with all of the special details that you’d expect to see. 







The welcome desk has seats when you check in, the valet welcomes you at the door and there’s even a bottle of wine in your room to greet you. The bed was amazingly comfy and the beautiful bathroom even has a bench in the shower! Let’s not forget to mention the robes and slippers in the room! 











There isn’t a bad thing I can say about this hotel! When I left in the morning, the valet asked me if I wanted cold water to take with me. When I say they think of every detail, I mean it! 

The pool was amazing- the hot tub was so big! The outside was an incredible atmosphere with cabanas, an outdoor bar and a large area with chairs for lounging and catching some rays! 























The current restaurant situation was a tent outside- it’s air conditioned and has a beautiful ambiance. The food is insanely delicious and I loved everything I got! I’m excited to say that they will also be opening a spa and a newly remodeled restaurant in the fall! In the meantime, you can still enjoy brunch by the pool, inside or even in your room like I did the two mornings I stayed there! They even have teacups and saucers in the room for your tea or coffee! 

















Enjoy all of the pics of this gorgeous place! I hope you’ll be able to check them out soon! I know you will love Hotel Granduca as much as I do! 

Thanks for reading and following along with me!

Sunday Style: Green

Image
Green is my favorite color. I think it brings out the color in my eyes and it looks great with my skin tone.There's lots of sayings with green in them too. Give the green light. Green thumb. Going green. (Make no mistake- I didn't say Go Green- that's for all you Spartan fans out there). Green around the gills. Green with envy- well, don't be green with envy but I am sitting here in sunny Florida enjoying the warm weather and time with family and friends... This green dress has been hanging in my closet for a while but this was the first time that I got it out. I scored it on a major sale but just haven't had a chance to wear it. I always say why wait for a special occasion?  What I love most about this dress is the neckline. I tell you all the time that it's hard for me to wear a straight skirt or dress and this is no exception. I like the look of it but I do think I'll spend a few more dollars and have it tailored a little more. I paired nude pumps...

Sunday Style: JJ’s House

Image
It’s been said in various ways that clothes don’t make the person, the person makes the clothes. I believe this to be exceptionally true in this beautiful dress that I am wearing in today’s post! This dress literally made me wish that I was heading out to the opera or a benefit dinner. I love that I get to wear and model a lot of clothes and some just feel more special than others. This dress was custom made for me so I got all the feels while I was zipping it up and looking in the mirror. It fits like a glove and I could not be more in love with it!  Let’s talk about  JJ’s House  for a minute. They have all sorts of dresses for special occasions, including bridal wear! I picked out a dress and did my measurements and sent them in with my order. They even called me once to make sure that my measurements were correct so they made sure to make the dress correctly!  This  dress  has gorgeous nude tulle with a black lace overlay. I literally felt like a princes...
