Goa memories

Let’s face it folks 2013 is going to be an action-packed year for MissMalini 🙂 How can I tell? Well just take a look at my Instagrams from this month alone and you be the judge!

PS. Plus in two weeks a few of my favorite people are joining me on a jaunt to celebrate my one year wedding anniversary back where the magic happened. In Goa – remember the message in a bottle invite? I’m real proud of that 🙂 Can’t wait to Instagram up a storm from there too! xoxo
