Some of life’s best-laid plans are the ones we don’t plan at all. My best days have involved deviating from my original itinerary and doing something completely spontaneous. With a city as vast and exhilarating as New York, it’s easy to go through the motions of scheduling your whole life out in advance just so […]
The Backup Plan
Paper-Bag Pants
Hi, friends! It’s been a minute since my last post, but absence makes the heart grow fonder, right? With summer flying by (HOW is it almost August already?!), I have dedicated my weekends to living in the present moment as much as possible, and that includes reducing my social media usage. Needless to say, I […]
Coney Island
There is something about the summer air that really gets me going. While I could do without the pervasive New York humidity, the summer instills a hankering for exploration in me. With so much to see and do here, I make it a mission to frequently hit up the spots I’ve never before experienced. If […]
Adult Swim
At 23-years-old, I still act like a little kid when it comes to frolicking in the pool. To me, a pool is the second-best, summer cool-down cure, next to a frozen margarita. However, living in NYC, pools are few and far between. Unless you have a friend who is blessed enough to reside in a building […]
Relaxed Mode
Once again, I have allowed myself to succumb to the ever-changing weather that has been plaguing us all these last few months. Now that the summer heat is acting with full force, I can’t help but be swept up in the hype of outdoor brunches, rooftop bar season and Summer Fridays. Of course, none of […]
Into the Woods
When Jacob informed me that we’d be heading to Weston, Connecticut for Memorial Day, I couldn’t wait; the trip was a short, albeit necessary reprieve from the commotion of city life (which I love, of course). The absolute antithesis of New York City, Weston is a small town in Fairfield County, CT, that screams of serenity and tranquility. The […]
Baby, You Can Drive My Car
Whenever I read a fashion magazine, I get particularly jazzed about the editorial fashion photography. Each spread boasts its own unique theme, from the location and styling, all the way to down to the carefully chosen props used to enhance the visual narrative. Together, these elements hold a vast storytelling power that offers a glimpse […]
New for the Summer
Hiya, babes! With June rapidly approaching, white is well on its way to becoming, once again, the HBIC of all summer colors. Despite this long-held fashion ideal, I remain fervent in my stance on wearing white year-round, because if you know how to rock a color from season to season, then why the hell not? I’m especially […]
Detoxing: Why It’s Good for the Soul
Detox–it’s a word that carries so much meaning and importance, although the definition varies for each of us. For example, while the recent weather in New York has been “three-days-of-70-degrees-followed-by-a-weekend-of-rain-and-low-50s” deplorable, I’ve gotta give it up to Mother Nature for this break in blogging. It’s allowed me to hit the “reset” button and refocus my time […]
Flared Leather, Never Better
Today, I am here to bring your attention to a very important article of clothing that needs no introduction: these leather flares from Tobi. For those of you who have managed to keep up with my posts since my blog’s inception (I salute you), you certainly know about my adoration for leather and flared pants. The […]
