Maggie Sottero boasts having the best fit in the industry, but I just love the Cecilia gown for its shoestring halter strap and beautiful draping.

I’ve covered so many beach locations for Honeymoon Friday, and that is probably because I love the beach so much. I wanted to mix it up today, though, so I asked the ladies at LT Travel Connection to send me their best deals for Italy. They definitely didn’t disappoint!
This deal is awesome: you get to spend eight days with three nights in Rome and three nights on the Amalfi Coast. It also includes a tour of Rome, a daily breakfast buffet, a romantic dinner, transportation from Rome to Naples, and more. All of that starts at just $2370! For a romantic European honeymoon, that’s a steal.
And just take a look at some of the mega-gorgeous participating hotels!
Hotel Poseidon, Positano
Capri Palace, Capri
P.S. I’m officially head-over-heels in love with this hotel. I wonder if I could get some time off to visit Capri…hmm.
Hotel Eliseo, Rome
Hilton Sorrento Palace, Sorrento
I am always amazed at how they build things in Europe. They go up mountains, with buildings on top of buildings on top of buildings. The history combined with the romanticism is just too much to pass up! As always, if you need assistance with these overseas trips, LT Travel Connection is always here to help!

As a full-figured woman myself, I understand how hard it can be to find suitable cocktail dresses. They’re either cut all wrong and emphasize all of the wrong places, or they’re frumpy with lots of extra fabric and bad prints. So I was so happy to stumble upon Suzi Chin’s line for Maggy Boutique. It includes options for plus-sized ladies that actually flatter. I love this draped dress with a faux wrap. It has the right draping and cut to flatter a woman’s body.
