As I mentioned in my last post, I haven’t explored enough of Long Island. So, I set out with the usual crew to the Bayard Cutting Arboretum. We all piled into my little bug and went east for our High Tea reservations. The Arboretum is the former home of New York millionaire William Bayard Cutting, […]
On the Steps of The Met
The Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of my favorite places in New York. I have always loved art and going to museums, and living in a city full of celebrated art houses is a dream! This is my second trip to the Met this year, just because I love it so much! My next […]
New Orleans: Part 2
Saturday night in New Orleans- it just conjures up images of partying on Bourbon street, doesn’t it? My Saturday night consisted of the wedding and boy, was it a blast. We Southerners really know how to throw a party, and weddings are our specialty. The ceremony was held at St. Mary’s, a beautiful old church […]
New Orleans: Part 1
I’m delving into the past for blog posts, as I’m feeling very uninspired lately. So, now is the perfect time to blog about my trip to New Orleans! I spent a lot of time in New Orleans growing up, as my grandparents were living there and we made the short flight from Dallas to see them […]
April 1st
There are so many things going on this month, and I wanted to take the time to sit down and reflect on this month and what it means. I’m turning the big 2-0 this month (that’s a little scary!), so in honor of my birthday here are a few things I’m grateful for, proud of, […]
What’s In My Bag? School Edition
I’ve seen quite a few “What’s In My Bag?” posts over the last few days (specifically these from The Chelsea Way and College Prepster), so I was inspired to post my own! Today is the School Edition, aka what I always, always, always have in my bag before I leave my dorm room. Lilly Pulitzer […]
Los Angeles Day 3: Laguna Beach
Day 3 of my trip was my first day in Orange County, which I will try not to refer to as The OC because I know it drives people crazy. Our first stop in The OC Orange County was Laguna Beach- yes, that Laguna Beach. It’s definitely more touristy since the show came out, but beautiful all […]
Los Angeles Day 1: LACMA
I am officially in love with the city of angels. Don’t get me wrong, I love New York, but LA has definitely captured my heart. The warm weather, sunshine, and open spaces (at least compared to Long Island), plus spending a week with my best friend are just what I needed. I was so excited […]
Packing List
I’m currently on the plane to Los Angeles (!!!) and I wanted to give a little sneak peek at some of my outfits for the week. I have been waiting to wear most of these clothes, and my suitcase is full of things that still have the tags on them! This was probably the easiest […]
Rainy Day
I have been waiting since Christmas to wear this rain jacket by Hurley- I love the plaid and how light it is- plus it has a hood to keep my hair dry! It is finally warm enough to not have to wear 3 layers-yesterday it got up to 64 degrees and I saw people in […]
