HAPPY HALLOWEEN! It’s my favorite day of the year, and I’m off to New Orleans to celebrate! I thrifted this vintage dress, took it in, and added the clown buttons! The rest of the costume (hat and nose) are from Amazon. Tonight I will be adding some face makeup and red to my hair! It’s fun to make costumes yourself, they come out more unique…
here’s a few more snaps from sunny Florida. don’t get to used to the bare skin, because Florida won’t be a destination for a long time now 🙂 i haven’t worn a bow tie in a while, so adding this vintage one made the look feel a little bit more “me”! i am off to New Orleans for a bachelorette party this weekend! it will…
this weekend i flew into FL to watch my college roommate get married. The saturday of her wedding we had a few hours to kill, and ended up going to a pumpkin patch! with october almost over, we realized that we’ve done literally zero fall activities. it’s funny because when we lived in florida we would do them ALL – carve pumpkins, bake pumpkin muffins/…
my weenie girl is back in my life! i have to tell you, dogs truly are a lifesaver. i read somewhere (probably on Bustle or Buzzfeed, or something) that life is GOING to feel lonely, because essentially no matter how many friends we have or how busy we are, we are alone. i agree. i am not sure if i have mentioned this before on…
Here’s some pictures of the renovation going on in our home right now! As you know, we’re not living there yet, so the house is pretty torn apart, but hopefully in a few weeks it will be all done! Updates to the home include: New kitchen from scratch (very fun, but also very stressful!) New bathroom Adding a ceiling fan to our bedroom Adding hi-hats…
We’re all set up in our “temp home” and claude is officially a NY WEENIE! It’s been a weekend filled with family – we had a wedding to attend… and the next two weekends = more weddings. It seems like i am that age. I wore this for a Saturday morning brunch on a beautiful, sunny, 55 degree day. ♥ anyone else find themselves in…
life has been SO crazy lately, that i forgot to set my alarm and was late to work today. that NEVER happens to me. i woke up and it was light out – and i knew right away. OOPS. i am ready for the normalcy to return. is it sad that i am looking forward to boiling eggs for breakfast & making my salads for…
two of the toughest parts about being a “normal” kind of blogger like me are … 1. when your husband works different hours than you, it can be tough to take pictures (hence mini blogging break). it’s weird to ask anyone else to snap photos, and i feel weird being in them all the time to begin with! matt has been working hard, but we’ll…

… yes, i am a blogger. and yes, bloggers stereotypically love fall, and go on and on about how wonderful it is. but GUYS. this time last year I was here dressing like this. actually NEEDING tights and knee highs is a concept I’ve forgotten all about! it was in the 40’s on this day upstate – and i may have even been CHILLY! i…
until this weekend, i haven’t been to Washington D.C. since I was in my early teens. Matt was working a job nearby on Saturday, so i tagged along and explored the city by my lonesome all day. I was able to see the White House (fairly uneventful), stand inside the gorgeous Lincoln Memorial, and wander around Adams Morgan exploring vintage & coffee shops. Literally everyone…
who else shamelessly loves halloween? here’s how it goes for me. october 1st comes, and the skeleton, kitty and pumpkin colored things i own come out. i don’t care how many weird looks i get, or how many people tell me it’s “too soon.” i look forward to THESE 31 days all year!!! we’re already 3 days in… must take advantage of this time now!…
eiffel tower print: check adorable collar: check perfect chambray fabric: check!! literally the most perfect dress, which i wore for a day exploring montauk. we visited the lighthouse at the east most point, and sipped some vino on the bay after a day of exploring. i was so excited to share this outfit on Wear, which is a new “outfit posts” site similar to Chictopia and…
