Weekend Getaway | Day 1 Adventures in Orlando

This past weekend, my fiance and I had planned to have a little getaway before school starts and our lives become hectic next week. It was nice to get out of town and explore different parts of our state. We decided to stay in Orlando and visit St. Augustine on Saturday ( it will be featured on Day 2). We’ve been to Orlando plenty of times, but the change of scenery is so refreshing. It was nice to disconnect and spend quality time with each other.

We started the day shopping at the International Premium Outlets. I love shopping here and get so many great deals. If you’ve been following me, you know I am obsessed with Kate Spade. I have been looking for a hot pink bag and when we went to the Kate Spade store, I found one!! Even though Mike just bought me a new one for my birthday, I had to have it. I didn’t have to have it, but it was heavily discounted and I couldn’t pass it up!

My new beauties.

We did a little more shopping and had lunch. It started to pour while we were shopping and of course we brought umbrellas…but left them in the car! We spent most of the time waiting for the rain to die down. We eventually made it to our hotel!

Rosen Shingle Creek.

I love coming to this hotel. It is so beautiful and the hotel staff is so friendly. It’s so comfortable; it feels like a home away from home.

City Walk.

We relaxed and waited for the rain to let up. We were able to go to City Walk for dinner as planned. We decided to have Mexican food for dinner.

How cool is this restaurant?

Since we didn’t do much relaxing all day, we went back to the hotel and relaxed for the rest of the night. This post is different than my usual beauty/food posts, but I wanted to share our weekend adventures with you all. St. Augustine post will soon follow! 🙂
