Hotel Del Coronado




I love the way this dress flowed in the ocean breeze and the way the colors resembled the beautiful blues of the water nearby. I also love the tassel details that swing back and forth while you stroll along.  This dress allowed me to participate in the graceful beauty that Hotel Del Coronado eludes.

 The beach as soon as you walk out of the hotel is amazing and the view, breath taking.

Smile! You're on vacation!

Here's some background on Hotel Del Coronado in case you are ever in San Diego, CA,
you must check it out.....


Built in 1888, this classic beachfront respite near San Diego, California has long been heralded as one of America’s most beautiful beach resorts. A pronouncement underscored by its designation as a National Historic Landmark in 1977. Coronado was recently named No. 1 Best Beach in America for 2012 in the highly anticipated list by Florida International University professor and coastal expert Stephen P. Leatherman, a.k.a. "Dr. Beach".
This is the first California beach to win the honor in the 22 years the list has been published.
Says Dr. Beach: "Coronado Beach is the toast of Southern California; it is a veritable oasis by the sea, measuring hundreds of yards wide. With its lush subtropical vegetation, unique Mediterranean climate, and fine sparkling sand, beachgoers flock to this beach for great ship - watching and the summer’s mild surf. The local landmark, Hotel del Coronado, was built over a hundred years ago, offering spectacular architecture and Old World elegance. Kings, sheiks, actors, and actresses have stayed at Hotel del Coronado, where food and drinks are served on the beach, and the hotel provides a great location for celebrities."
