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…
So nobody every warned me, and now I am going to warn you… Red hair is TOUGH to remove guys. This is not something you should do on a whim (like i did)!! It is expensive and time consuming to try to go back to my original color of dirty blonde 🙁 It’s okay, being a strawberry blonde/ redhead is V fun, but i feel…
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…
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…
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…
Hello from Martha’s Vineyard! We travel here every year for family vacation, you can see past years here, here, here and here.

I am absolutely smitten by this vintage floral dress; in my mind it is the perfect “vacation” dress to throw on. and the back…
