Lizzy goes to the beach in this installment of Lizzy’s Latest! 😉 If you know me or have been following my blog, you know that I grew up on the beaches of San Diego. Some of my happiest childhood memories happened at the beach with my Forever BFF, Tammy. When we were younger, her dad used to take us and our brothers to the annual sandcastle competition at Imperial Beach. It was so much fun watching artists create spectacular works of art out of sand! When we were preteens, Tammy and I used to be dropped off at the beach where we would enjoy girl time and flirt with the cute boys…surfers for me and skaters for Tammy. Haha! (more…)
A little insight to this shot. It was very sunny that day and sunny days aren’t ideal for good blog pictures. I was standing on that ledge for quite some time waiting for the sun to go behind the clouds. Suddenly, a moment presented itself and it was so fleeting, I didn’t have time to fix my top. So, that’s why my hands are on my top like that. As soon as this shot was taken, the sun was blinding me again. Sigh…so, we decided to move on.
I have been on a good streak with publishing content for the blog. We’ve been so busy with photo shoots these last several months that I don’t know if I will have time to share all the summer heels I’d like to feature here before fall. Plus, I have some Heels on the Battlefield posts in the works for all my history enthusiasts. It’s been a while since I published a history post and I can’t wait to share my latest one with y’all. In the meantime, you can check out two of my favorite Heels on the Battlefield posts from last year, here and here. And let’s not forget, Lizzy’s Latest Top 5 Fall Favorites, a September staple on the blog. (more…)
I had a full weekend of photo shoots a few weekends ago. It was long overdue because I had been procrastinating on blog work. During the downtime, my time was spent in good company taking weekend road trips to towns with Civil War and/or Revolutionary War pasts. We even made a trip to Hersheypark amusement park. We were fortunate that day because the weather was not too hot and the humidity was low making having to wear a mask bearable. (more…)
Is it really August? This summer is going by so fast, but I think I say this every summer. 😉 I bet if we go back to last summer’s posts, there is a similar sentence somewhere. (more…)
I am sooooo late with this post! With work and life so busy (as usual), I must confess, I’ve been procrastinating on the blog. I’ve been wanting to enjoy weekends and road trips and so that’s what I did. I’m certain like many of you, staying indoors for all those months was tough, even for me, a natural homebody. Even homebodies have their limits! 😉 (more…)
I just got back from a 4th of July getaway in Pensacola, FL. This was my first adventure since Christmas. I needed a break and some beach time. I had a lot of fun, was in good company, and hope to share this story on the blog one day. (more…)
Lizzy’s Latest Note: This post was supposed to go live on Sunday, but I had ongoing internet issues. Comcast is the WORST! Absolutely unreliable and I plan to cancel my service soon. As such, my Father’s Day post is a bit belated.
Greetings, my faithful friends and followers. I must apologize for my absence, but life got busy (again!). Adding to the delay was a technical issue that briefly took my website offline. I didn’t even realize my website was offline until a few days ago when I tried to update it and couldn’t get in. It was the worst feeling; my heart sank. So much of my heart and soul goes into Lizzy’s Latest. It is a passion of mine because I enjoy sharing heels and history with all of you. 🙂 (more…)
Taking pictures for the blog has been quite limited during this pandemic. With everything closed, we have been staying in the neighborhood for photo shoots. This time around, we ventured a little further into Southern Maryland. (more…)
If you’ve been following my blog on a regular basis, you know about my Forever BFF, Tammy, and my East Coast BFF, Packy. Well, there is one other girl who completes my trifecta of besties. She was a girl I used to know who remains close to my heart. She was my Eternal BFF, Shari. The first time we met was serendipitous and from that moment on, we became the best of friends. We got into so much mischief together (as kids do!), but always gave the appearance of being perfect angels. 😉 When we lost touch many years ago, I never forgot Shari, even searching for her over the years to no avail. Her impact on my life was immense and I often reminisced about our adventures and prayed that she was healthy and happy. (more…)
Back in February, a representative from Thread Tank reached out to me for a collaboration. I had never heard of this company, so I looked them up. I discovered that they are an apparel company that creates graphic tops for women, men, and toddlers. Their tops display words and phrases that fit your mood and speak your story. As their motto implies, their tops are “stories you can wear.” (more…)
