Ice Cream Dreams and a Dress to Match

Happy Friday, beautiful! What better way to celebrate Friday than an ice cream?! Not just any ice cream will do. It has to be an over-the-top, gilded, sparkling, ice cream cone topped off with a cloud of cotton candy! Extra bonus points if the ice cream and the ice cream shop match your dress. That’s exactly what I found on my summer vacay to Miami. I happened to stumble upon MadLab Creamery in the Design District. This jewel box of a little ice cream shop was all dressed up in bubblegum pink and accessorized with golden whimsy throughout. The cherry on top was the darling old-fashioned ice cream cart adorned in baby pink to match. It’s as if this Milly dress inspired the decor and the scoops. I asked the lovely lady serving up the scoops to surprise me and she created the most beautiful ice cream swirl topped off with cotton candy and gold glitter to go with my pink and red color-blocked frock. As far as ice cream parlors go, it really doesn’t get any better than that.
