    Leather Weather

    September 30, 2016 /

    It’s officially fall in New York! I can’t tell you how much I LOVE this season. Chilly weather, cuddles, beautiful leaves. Not to mention, apple pie <3 .  It’s perfection. Today was chilly enough that I had to wear my (vegan) leather jacket! Next up? Boots and vests and scarves.. OH MY! Jacket: L&L Women’s Quilted Biker Jacket (via Amazon) | Top: White House Black Market (similar) | Pants: Banana Republic (similar) | Shoes: Ollio Pointed Toe Oxfords (via Amazon)

    Road to Rhode Island

    September 20, 2016 /

    This past weekend, Hubs and I went to Newport, RI for our anniversary (awwww.) I had previously been there some years ago, but he had never been, so I booked a quick little getaway for us. IT. WAS. LOVELY!!! Our first stop was to tour a couple of the mansions, because, duh, Newport. We saw the Breakers and Rose Cliff, the latter of which was my dream wedding spot. Unfortunately some of the outside walls and grounds were being restored, but all in all, still great tours. After the mansions we checked into an adorable little B&B, and headed off the lunch. Lunch at the Wharf Pub was soooo good.…

    A Day at the Open

    September 7, 2016 /

      A few days ago we went to the US Open. While it proved a little difficult going with a cranky and teething toddler, overall we had a good time, and were even able to watch a whole match (Monfils vs. Almagro)! And of course, we had to have the Grey Goose Honey Deuce; definitely one of my favorite sweet drinks, and one that I’ve enjoyed making this weekend as well. The grounds for the most part are pretty stroller friendly, and the stadiums (at least Ashe & “new” Grandstand) had elevators. And even though we didn’t really take our little one out of the stroller, it does help if…
