Hurricane Irma - The Preparation

As I write this for my blog I am by candlelight because of Hurricane Irma. We are without electricity in most of Orlando, and I hear the methodical plinking of water into a round glass from one small leak in the window. It has been a few years since Florida has had a strong hurricane, this storm is the size of the whole state. I wanted to do a shoot before the storm changed everything, and I found this amazing spot nearby. A basketball court and tennis court were overgrown ne

Orlando Florida Bloggers meetup - #otownbloggersquad

I started the Orlando Bloggers group a few months ago and it has blossomed past my wildest imaginings. I contacted everyone in the group to see if they were interested in forming a bloggers group so that we could all grow and support each other. I am so lucky to have so many awesome young women bloggers living in the same city, filled with creativity and drive, and felt that we should all get to know each other. I am so fortunate to have all of you in my life now. Geo organiz

Downtown Orlando Photoshoot

I had a shoot recently with my friend Alex in downtown Orlando, it was our first shoot together. I met her at the Meet + Muse event the month before at the Orlando Museum of Art. I'll do a post about that event soon, it was excellent to browse their collections and meet some local instagrammers and photographers. At first I was kind of nervous because I'm used to shooting by myself with a timer or with family. She, Michelle and I shot together and explored more of downtown Or

Birthday at Magic Kingdom - Part 2

The fireworks show was spectacular and I want to go back again and again. It was so packed there were people staking out spots for the fireworks hours in advance. The food at the theme parks is one of the best parts. A crowd of people saw me eating a turkey leg and rushed in to get one. Getting a Mickey shaped ice cream is one of the hallmarks of spending a day at the park. It has vanilla ice cream enveloped in rich dark chocolate. It started to melt from the heat as I was lo

Birthday at Magic Kingdom - Part 1

#flashbackfriday to my birthday at Magic Kingdom last summer. What I wanted most for my birthday was to go back to Disney. I'm a native to Orlando but it had been a few years since I had been to Disney. I tend to rotate which theme parks I have a pass to, and it was time to go back to Disney! Even just the drive up to the gate brings up a sense of excitement and anticipation. They were already decorated for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at the end of August. Kind of a

Orlando Food Event - Hawkers Asian Fare Summer Share

The food at Hawkers in downtown Orlando, Florida was amazing and was a culinary trip around Asia. Named after the street vendors that populate the streets of Asia, Hawkers serves authentic and appetizing street food from countries such as Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia and China. The evening at Hawkers started with roti canai, a South Indian style dish, followed by a tiger salad, topped with octopus with hints of sesame. The crispy chicken skewers were like a chicken bacon, fol

Blue Bunny Ice Cream Truck

One of my favorite parts of the summer is the Blue Bunny ice cream truck. It's a quick sweet treat that you can customize to make your own. You can choose what kind of cookies you want as well as the ice cream flavors, and you can have a cookie of one flavor paired with a cookie of another. This one features a peanut butter cookie, and chocolate chip cookie, vanilla ice cream and rainbow sprinkles. It is so delicious and flavorful. I can't wait till it comes around again! "Th

#ootd - Red Romper with Black Hat

Gazing at one of my favorite paintings, Inner Lhamo Waterfall, by Pat Steir. It is "in reference to the sacred Tibetan lake, Lahmo Latso." I love art with a spiritual meaning. I like to utilize a dripping, pouring and splattering technique in my own paintings and feel that that is also why I am drawn to this one. Have a beautiful day! 😄💙💎💧🔥❤️🎨 #KatrinaBelle #KatrinaBelleBeauty #Orlandofashionblogger #Orlando #Fashion #Art #OrlandoMuseumofArt #Red #Hats #Travel #Travel

Finding Neverland at the Dr. Phillips Center in Downtown Orlando

An old friend of mine was back from his deployment and we wanted to go and see a show. At first he thought that Finding Neverland would be more like the Disney movie but it was actually a musical about the life of J.M. Barrie, who wrote Peter Pan. The writer's life somewhat mirrored the book, or rather vice versa. He befriended a widow who had a bunch of sons, who inspired the book Peter Pan. The Dr. Phillips Center is absolutely beautiful and perfect for a show. My dress is

Exploring Tarpon Springs, Florida

Tarpon Springs is a sleepy little Greek town near Tampa, Florida. It has the most amazing Greek food and a fascinating history. Known as the "sponge capital of the world," the town's economy used to subsist of sponge diving. It was about an hour's drive from Orlando to Tarpon Springs, a little bit past Tampa. We checked out the sponge shop and museum, which was interesting if you like history and culture. We ate at a restaurant called Hellas. Unfortunately none of my food pic

Exploring Orlando Florida: Finding the iconic Orlando Loves painting

There was a beautiful art opening at the Mennello Museum of Art downtown. I was super excited to find the popular "Orlando Loves" painting inside. It had been an elusive quest of mine to find it and be photographed next to it. The painting below was my favorite from that evening. It was inspired by Purple Rain by Prince, one of my favorite musical artists of all time. #KatrinaBelle #KatrinaBelleBeauty #Orlandofashionblogger #Orlandofashionbloggers #OrlandoFloridafashionblogge

The Closing of Wet n' Wild on iDrive Orlando

Taken when passing by the area that used to be the popular water park Wet N' Wild. It was closed by Universal to make way for the Volcano Bay Water Park. For nearly forty years, Wet N' Wild was a popular attraction for both locals and tourists. I remember one of my childhood friends had a birthday party there one year. I still remember it to this day, the Lazy River there was rather intense and not so lazy, but we all had a blast. I've heard good things about the new water pa
