Navy and Red in Brooklyn

NY is finally HOT, and I couldn’t be more excited about it. I am so thankful that I get to be pregnant during the summertime when I can wear light and flowy dresses like this one! We’ve been spending most of our days on the beach or in Brooklyn! Here’s some photos from Clinton Hill, our new favorite place in Brooklyn to hangout. One of…

Summer Skin in Sitges

Sitges was also just a quick 45 minute train ride outside of Barcelona. It looked (to me) like Greece, or Burano, Italy or a mix of the two. The narrow alleyway streets were breathtaking, and I swear everyone just knew to buy the same colored flowers! It was a bit “touristy” and overcrowded, but we’re still glad we got to see it and spend a…

Hatch ♥️♥️ in Spain

While visiting Spain, Matt and I took a day-trip to Girona (which we highly recommend for anyone who has a few days in Barcelona – we took the AVE high speed train, and the ride was only 30 minutes!) Some of Game of Thrones was filmed here, which made it extra exciting for us, plus you can truly get lost on the narrow cobblestone streets…

Stripes + Introspection

Pregnancy does interesting things to the way we view ourselves. Some days I look at my 1000 times more curvy body and I cringe at myself, and others I am proud of it and I want to wear a dress like this to show the world. I (of course) knew that my body would grow, and part of that is SO exciting. Every morning matt…

Amsterdam Tulips

Getting to see the tulips in Amsterdam was one of my favorite things of all time. It seriously looks like tons and tons of M&M’s from far away, until you drive closer and realize that they’re perfectly planted tulips! It looks fake, and even in seeing these photos I still cannot believe they’re real. In all honesty, we snapped some pictures but I was SO…

Amsterdam + Adorable Navy Oxfords

Before heading to Iceland, we took two days to stop into Amsterdam and visit some college friends. I had never been before, and Matt had only visited when he was a little kiddie. We spent our only full day there exploring the gorgeous city by bike, and taking a tour through the canals compliments of our friends! Biking around there is DEFINITELY nerve wracking, with…

1st Trimester Deets

Thanks SO much for all of your sweet comments. 🙂 So I don’t want to bore you guys with pregnancy ramblings, but I absolutely love reading back through the archives of the bloggers I follow to when they were pregnant, so I will update you periodically. Let me know if you’re interested or not! 🙂 Here’s a list of some things that people keep asking…

A Weekend Roatrip

Traveling upstate to Beacon, New Paltz, Cold Spring and all the cute little surrounding towns is one of our favorite things to do in Spring/ Summer / Fall. The vibe was SO different from the last time we went in the Fall! The blooms are unreal, and we finally upgraded to a 6-person tent for more room, which we named the “tent-mahal” because it’s so…

My Favorite Frye Boots (+ A Huge Frye/HauteLook Sale)

Spring came and went, or never really fully arrived. I was a bit bummed because I got amazing sandals from Frye that I’ve been dying to wear with a maxi dress, but instead I got to take these Frye Jackie Zip Short boots from HauteLook out for a spin, and they’re just as wonderful! I usually lean toward boots with skinnier ankles, but for some…

Long Beach Date Night in Ted Baker ♥ (+ a Sale!)

Since it’s been warmer outside, it’s been fun to put on fancier dresses for date night with Matt! I’ve been all about Mexican food lately, so we went out to Panchos which is a few minutes from our house. I felt so fancy, it made me feel like twirling! I found this perfect Spring outfit at Ted Baker, I always love how feminine their pieces…

Exploring Sagamore Hill

Teddy Roosevelt loved Sagamore Hill and spent most of his life there, and since he is one of Matt’s favorite presidents we toured his home a few weeks back and fell in love. The property surrounding his home is beautiful. We saw it covered in snow, and we were lucky enough to see it in bloom! There’s a mile hiking trail which leads into this…

Brooklyn Dusk

So excited to call today my “Friday.” It’s Matt’s birthday tomorrow, so we’re spending the day together in Brooklyn. He’s going to get my weenie tattoo (if he can get a walk-in appointment) so we match, and then we’re going to grab lunch at Katz deli. We pretty much never spend weekdays just exploring Brooklyn/ NYC so it will be a blast. Then we’re having…

Portland, Oregon Here We Come!

Thank you all so much for your incredible suggestions of things to do on instagram, we’re going to tackle as many of them as we can (with Voodoo donuts as #1)! I’ll…

Why I love and hate social media

I have to admit, when I created this blog 6 years ago, I didn’t quite know what I was getting myself into (or that marketing would blossom into my career). It’s brought me SO many incredible opportunities that I didn’t even think I ever deserved (and still don’t think I deserve), and I am forever grateful for that. But, it comes with a trade-off. It…

Like-new

Spring is (basically) here, and we’ve been outside soaking in the gorgeous warm[er] weather. Every time the seasons change, I always like to add a few “new” staples to freshen up my closet, but it’s definitely not the most affordable hobby a gal can have. I was so excited to find thredUP this season. They sell women’s and kids secondhand clothes from brands like Madewell…
