Hey loves, I hope you are off to a fantastic week! It’s been non-stop at the Superstar Nail Lacquer and Style Shoppe offices these past few weeks, as we have been working on some special projects and events for the fall. What I’m most excited about is attending Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in NYC, to see what’s new, what’s hot and what’s to come for spring 2015.

Throughout the week, especially on Sunday’s, I love having brunch with my family and friends. It’s a time where we reflect over our week, share stories, and plan for our future. Taking the time to enjoy my family, co-workers and staff reminds me of all the things I should be grateful for. It’s a time to kick back and cherish those around. In today’s blog post, I’m sharing 3 of my favorite restaurants to brunch with along with pictures of my favorite brunching look. A dress like this Forever 21 piece, Style Shoppe’s 3D floral necklace (see special sale this week at bottom of post), a Brahmin Electric Blue Normandy Debi Wallet and pink heels are perfect for a day well spent with loved ones. It’s comfortable and has the perfect dose of color for this Florida sun. Keep reading for details!

3 great restaurants to brunch with:

1. Bravo – If you love italian food, Bravo is definitely a great place to brunch with family and friends. My favorite dish is the Shrimp Diavolo (extra spicy) or the salmon salad if I’m leaning towards the healthy side. The lighting is perfect for blogging and Instagram pics!

2. Amura – Japanese happens to be one of my favorite types of food. It’s a fun place to go for hibachi grilled food, which tastes so fresh! I always order the salmon and filet with veggies and fried rice. It’s a perfect place to talk and share as the cook also provides entertainment for the group. (located in Orlando, but try Benihana, which is located worldwide)

3. Cheesecake Factory – The Cheesecake Factory is perfect for big parties. Whenever we have a larger group of people brunching with us, Cheesecake Factory is perfect because they accommodate us so well. The menu is very large, so it’s guaranteed everyone will find at least one meal they like. My favorite thing to order is the Cobb Salad with a side of corn succotash. It’s super delish, and reasonably priced.

P.S. I love sharing my latest style finds so much that I decided to create Ariana’s Closet. A place where you can shop my latest looks from online but at a very cool discounted price. This dress is going in Ariana’s Closet and is for sale. It’s a size Small from Forever 21, only worn ONCE! If you’d like to inquire about this dress, please email me: ariana@arianapierce.com

The Style Shoppe 3D floral necklace is on SALE this week as well. It’s usually $165 but only $45 this week. If you’d like to purchase it, please email me: ariana@arianapierce.com and we’ll have it shipped your way.
