I can honestly say that until this day, i forgot what the feeling of sun on my skin felt like – but oh how quickly i remembered and i never ever want to wear sleeves again. funny story – so i am REALLY white, probably the whitest i’ve ever been. Remember when i was THIS tan? yeah me either… So anyway, i go to the…
This is hands-down my go to look as of lately for work. Black pants and chambray always do the trick for me… I pop in a cute necklace or some patterned sneaks, and it feels my own! The weather has been just glorious! It always feels like I’m missing something without having a coat to carry, but i DO NOT miss it! I spent the…
There’s nothing greater than rediscovering spring clothes – especially since mine were once my “year round” clothes. It’s much easier to dress cute when it’s warmer outside, that’s for sure. I’ve been feeling really sick lately, I am hoping it’s just seasonal allergies, or a cold that’s going to pass. What do allergies even feel like, and do you guys get them? We snapped these…
WOW is Spring incredible. I’ve never really felt it before in my adult life – maybe a few years back when I lived in Brooklyn, but I don’t remember it. It’s like… one day you just KNOW, now it’s Spring, and everyone ditches their jackets and wears sweaters and dresses and walks around outside for hours and hours. I truly feel like a little kid…
Spring is here, music festival season is here, and I for one am EXCITED. I am not lucky enough to be heading to Coachella, but I am roadtripping to Shaky Knees in Atlanta in a few weeks, which has got ME shaky, yip yip yippee! In the spirit of the season, here’s an outfit that would be perfect for a music festival. I picked up…
Backpack, Tee, Shorts Swimsuit Overalls, Cat shirt Swimsuit In preparation for the festivals I’ll be attending (Shaky Knees & Governor’s Ball!!), here’s some of the rules I follow as far as packing goes! My three top staples include: 1. a backpack 2. round sunnies 3. A floral crown! A few other items I always pack are a cute swimsuit for hot summer days,…
An evening walk around the neighborhood tonight wearing some of my new vintage pieces paired with some new spring pieces i snagged. ♥ I told Matt, “this feels kind of like my uniform – i feel very me,” and he said “How does one have a uniform when they own a million pieces of clothing??” LOL i laughed… guys are funny. They just don’t get…
Beautiful is an understatement to describe today… 50 degrees, inspiringly sunny, endless hours to explore. I took a solo thrifting trip to brooklyn (i used to solo thrift in miami a ton, but not much since i moved here!) and MAN did it feel great. I love driving around brooklyn, city skyline views out my window and so many adorable places everywhere. i ran into…
i hardly ever feel like jeans are “blog-worthy” but HEY, i wear jeans almost every day, so here’s an honest work day outfit. i read this interesting article today talking about how people today miss out on the most important moments in their lives by trying to capture and immortalize them on their cell phones. i felt sad for a second, because i know i…
1. vintage pink sweater 2. add some tights to stay warm 3. hair in a messy bun, because WIND i decided a few things this week… the first being that sometimes it’s easier to not overthink a look, and to polish it off with black tights and boots because it is easy. the second being WHY DID I CUT MY HAIR, i am going to…
It’s been a while since I sewed and altered vintage, but this weekend I explored some Long Island thrift stores and found some cute spring vintage! I took up the hem on this dress, and it quickly became a favorite! Oh how I love vintage oh so very much. I’ll be sharing some tips for thrifting later this week, please let me know in the…
This dock in Long Beach is quite scenic, especially on a rainy day like this one. I used to come here when I was growing up, and ice skate at the rink right down the street. We would spend the summer days playing at the park, being young, not realizing that we’d come back and visit years down the road filled with nostalgia. That is…
Daylight savings is a good investment, in my opinion. You feel extra sleepy for a few days and waking up is more of a struggle but the trade off is huge. A full two hours of sunlight after work!! It feels quite delightful to walk around my neighborhood and watch the sunset… and will be wonderful for the blog as well 🙂 Matt brewed us…
I’m in Miami for the first time since I moved away 8 months ago, and it sure feels good. My skin is defrosting, I visited all of my favorite places and on Saturday I get to watch my best friend in the world get married!! It is mind boggling how NY can be blizzarding while the sun continues to shine in 80 degree Miami. Make…
It’s easy to fall in and out of love. I feel like I am doing it every day, week, month. My feelings on being a pet owner, my love/hate relationship with green beans and my mood while I am getting dressed… all shifting always. This month I REEEALLLY love edamame, but I hate high waisted skirts – a love of mine for years. It’s all…
Lately i’ve been thinking a lot about moments. what makes some trivial memories stick out, while big moments such as middle school graduation may fade away over time? it’s seemingly random and never ever predictable. i have this one memory from high school in “The Canoli Kitchen” in boca raton, florida. my friend was balancing a gatorade bottle on my head, and it fell and…
Karma is a B, and us fashion lovers must have some prettttty bad Karma. After living through my first winter, I swear that this week has been by far the COLDEST week. I swore off fashion week last Sept, but I am a believer in second chances. I took off on Friday and attended some showroom collection previews, parties, etc. Here’s my fashion week mentality:…
T-minus 2 days until that big dreaded/loved day of love. I admittedly think the day is very silly, and people who love each other should just be in love every day… but i do enjoy dressing in red, pink and hearts in the days leading up to it 🙂 i remember my very first valentines day with a valentine. it was 10th grade, and my…
This weekend my 85-year-old grandma told me, “I HATE RED HAIR.” no, she isn’t color blind and yes she did tell me directly to my face, knowing i just dyed my hair red. i’ve always been one to stick with my guns though, and while it is a huge change, it is one i’ve let in with open arms! sometimes it’s good to go out…
hi there! long time no see. I have been enjoying a much needed time off from this space to explore what life feels like when it isn’t constantly recorded. I’ve got to say, it feels good. sometimes it is really overwhelming feeling like every day has to be “photo ready” and every moment has to be shared. i like having my privacy back, and my…
