Thanks to Zappos.com and Rockport for sponsoring this post! It’s probably not surprising to you guys that I spend my time off hunting for treasures in upstate NY (Mystery Spot antiques is worth your time!) What may come as a shock to you, though, is that I packed so light that I only brought one pair of shoes for the adventure – these super cute…
Lately I’ve been gravitating toward wearing my hair up, because A. it’s way quicker and B. it’s falling out, so this is a fun way to cover that up. Also, Hudson always pulls on it now! Most days I throw on denim and a tee, so it felt good to plan out this look and feel sort of like my “old self.” Some of these…
Three years just flew by, huh?! It feels like just yesterday when I was blogging about planning our wedding on here. We celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary parading around NYC with Hudson crashing our party, sharing some coffees, tacos & Werther’s along the way, soaking in all of the sweet moments that days off together as the three of us have to offer. We walked…
Even though I opt to skip NYFW (because let’s be honest, you’d rather see professional photos of the shows on Style.com than on here) I do enjoy mingling at some events and staying overnight in the city! We stayed at the W Hotel Downtown, and I am not going to lie, I did NOT want to leave. It made me deeply consider getting rid of…
Last year we cut our own tree in upstate NY, but this year we wanted to find somewhere a bit closer to bring Hudson! We stumbled upon Mike’s cut your own tree farm out East, and it was perfect for a day of festive Christmas decorating! Hudson slept through the entire thing, but we’ll make sure to show him the pictures as proof that he…
Everything becomes more challenging to accomplish with a newborn. There’s certain things I just know we’ll have to skip this year, like visiting the tree in Rockefeller center because of the crowds, but I am feeling super accomplished after tackling some holiday shopping with Hudson in tow! It was his first time in NYC, and we couldn’t have done it without the help of UberX.…
I’ve been feeling comfortable enough to whip out the boob and adventure into the world with our baby boy. We changed him in the trunk of the car, I fed him on a bench in a park looking out at the statue of liberty, and this whole parenting thing is starting to get a little easier. Red Hook is one of our favorite places in…
I wish I could tell you how lovely the fall weather is, and how perfectly crisp the air is all day, but the truth is it’s only “fall-esque” until about 10am. We woke up early to pick apples (which i had never done before!!) and it was gorgeous out… until we walked one too many hills and the knee highs made me a little overheated.…
last post of 2011! crazy! sorry i’m not equipped with a snazzy “year-end” type of post, but i’ve been on-the-go. i will make sure to post my new years outfit, and then on to some nicaragua posts! it makes me so happy when my man friends enjoy shopping with me, which is why this day was extra special! my friend eddie accompanied me to my…
a day spent in brooklyn getting brunch and cappuccinos with my guy followed by a walk in the village. every day i am here, i feel like i am REALLY living. every minute and every second… simply follows the one before it. it’s a big spontaneous blur, but every night i fall asleep feeling like i filled the day meaningfully. ♥ sweater: for sale in…
oh, i have such an unconditional love for new york city days. the perfect crisp winter air, the cozy sweater filled days, the amazing vintage shops, the non-starbuck’s coffee shops, and walking, walking, walking. my heart IS happy. here’s some snaps from day 1… my brothers roommate got an amazing little puppy named sapphire… and the guy with the pitbull is my brother, matt. YES…
for some reason, when i am amongst the hustle and bustle of new york city my world just slows down. it is as if my brain and my inner chaos just reaches this calm and soothing quiet, and i can sit with my thoughts and really think deeply about my life. so basically, i am somewhat sad to be back and cannot wait to visit…
