There is no question that life passes by quickly, but vacation is on fast forward! It feels like we just arrived, and we’re already heading home tomorrow. Oh how the passage of time is so bittersweet! Here’s some snapshots from the past few days… if you’re heading out to Martha’s Vineyard, two places to definitely check out are… 1. Lucky Hanks – the garden is…
There’s only two ways to snake your way onto this island… 1. fly 2. take a ferry we left our home at 6:30am, and made it onto the ferry by noon! It’s an easy journey from NY, and a wonderful weekend getaway! Have a Happy 4th of July Aeropostale cropped top Missguided skirt…
July 4th weekend has a feeling – the air is crisp and warm, american flags are prominent, the skies are blue and the days are beautifully long and filled with the smell of BBQ, sun tan lotion and insect repellent. MMMM, all my favorite smells. We’re off on our annual Marthas Vineyard family trip for the holiday, and I cannot WAIT for this vacation –…
Yesterday Matt and I went into the city for the Uno de 50 event in Soho. It was literally a PERFECT evening, so beautiful outside and the event was on the most quaint block. I am like a kid in the candy store when I step foot into the city… living 50 minutes outside of it has helped me to avoid becoming jaded. The event…
and just like THAT it is in the 90’s, and it becomes oh so clear why i left Miami! 🙂 it is really hard to be cute in the heat! I think I’ve finally found my summer uniform… breathable tees paired with high waisted denim shorts. Maybe it isn’t groundbreaking, but some days when you just want to throw on something but still look cute,…
There is nowhere else I would rather be than in Brooklyn on a sunny day with miss claude! Sadly, this weekend is a rainy one but two of my best friends are visiting and I am off to NYC now! what are you guys up to? Xo Missguided dress ASOS bag Vintage headband Vintage shoes Ray Ban sunnies…
I’ve been living in these glasses because tbh the computer in my eyes all day is taking its toll on me! It has been raining every day since this one, and it sounds so soothing out my window. It makes me want to blast Elliott Smith and Nick Drake all day, curl up in bed, and watch Orange is The New Black.. and that is…
This week has been extremely exciting, because I’ve been attending a social media summit in the city! It feels so great drinking a coffee on the train, and seeing the skyline appear as the train pulls into Penn Station. I know i see the world through “Steffy Vision” with an emphasis on the MAGIC and the SWEETS and the pretty COLORS, but the luster of…
longer length skirts have been my go-to lately because of the incessant wind near my house. it’s tough to wear hats and mini-skirts, my usuals staples! it has been a crazy few weeks, and i’ve gotta say being this age is WILD. between engagements, weddings and pregnancy announcements, it feels like grasping new realities is an everyday norm. i don’t know why, but to picture…
I hear this usually once a day, especially with the red lip. Little girls gasp sometimes and then look sad when they realize I’m steffy. EVEN 55-year-old kitchen installers mention it. I truly do not see it, guys!! But hey, it isn’t too shabby of a person to be confused as, I guess. Anyway, I wore this to shop for flowers and get coffee! I…
Ohhhhh the feeling of summer. This weekend we finally finished decorating our deck, and grilled saturday and sunday. the smell of grilled food is a new level of amazing! It has been so great to just let me hair get frizzy and soak in the beachy vibes of long beach. i EVEN DRANK MY FIRST PINA COLADA IN YEARS this weekend. it makes me want…
Something i’ve learned about clothes, especially recently, is that it is OKAY to repeat. I used to have this feeling like i needed new cute exciting things all the time to stay relevant, but in reality it’s a wonderful feeling to find things you love enough to rewear over and over again. It is even better when you pull your summer clothing out of storage…
Oh how lovely 3-day weekends are. AND it is officially “summer” up here, according to vacation rentals and such! We drove two hours upstate, and spent time around Woodstock, New Paltz, Beacon and all of my favorite towns to visit and antique in. It’s incredible how close you can find such a different world in NY… it feels like the quiet life upstate, and it…
This weather has been something else – 60s and 70s every day, perfect walking around the neighborhood weather, sunny skies. I live in a perfect spot to walk around now, and there’s a farmers market every Saturday that Matt and I pass through! I wore this to grab some coffee, and pick up some fresh veggies 🙂 I’ve been watching Mad Men non-stop, and am…
I thrifted this lovely mustard yellow turtleneck years ago, and cut it into a cropped top. I didn’t realize then just how much of a staple it would become, but i’ve worn it time and time again, including here, here and here! that’s one of my favorite things about clothing – you never know just HOW sentimental a top or a bag may become, or…
I just got home from atlanta after a long 16 hour drive, and I’m getting ready for work tomorrow! It was an incredible weekend filled with so. much. music. We were spoiled by the end, but also know how lucky we are to see so many great bands in such a short amount of time! My favorites were the strokes, best coast, neutral milk hotel…
1 minivan, 6 people plus me, and the wide open road! We are off on a roadtrip to Shaky Knees music festival in Atlanta, Georgia! I cannot wait to see The Strokes, Best Coast, Dr. Dog, The Kooks and soooo many more bands, plus my brother is meeting us from florida! I love adventure, and can’t wait to take you on mine 🙂 Follow on…
There’s this weird thing that happens when you’re a blogger… you start to think of your outfits as either “blogworthy” or “normal.” Sometimes when I put on a pair of jeans, or overalls with a plain t-shirt, i think WOW i look so so normal, like i’m unworthy of being a fashion blogger, and that pushes me to spice it up. Like if one of…
The days are looking sunnier, and I am starting to feel like myself again, finding my “sunshine style” again! I’m so happy to be wearing this adorable Cambridge Satchel Co. bag that I snagged from Shop Your Way, a really awesome new shopping site that has a marketplace of vendors selling all kinds of fun cute things. It let’s you become a personal shopper &…
NYC is WOW amazing now. Some days it is 70 degrees, some days it is 50 and you’re like WHYYY I thought it was springgggg, but the best months are ahead of us (as they always are) and I can’t flipping wait. Matt and I have been really thinking lately about why we don’t live in Brooklyn/ NYC. Long Beach is my hometown, and I…
