Memorial Day weekend is one of my favorite weekends of the year and I have a feeling I’m not alone on that front. Here in the Northeast, this is definitely the unofficial kick off to summer every year, ushering in months of warm weather, popsicles, picnics and beach dates. It’s no secret that I do …
What to wear
This morning I was taking a look at the schedule for the upcoming weekend and realized we have no fewer than four picnics and barbecues to attend. You’ve gotta love summer for that one! Once the weather is nice, people just love firing up the grill and celebrating everything from the average Saturday to the …
It’s the first day of spring – hooray! As excited as I am that winter is at least technically out the door, I have to admit that today isn’t feeling spring-like around these parts. It’s cold, gray and spitting snow. So I’ve resigned myself to the fact that spring dresses are still a ways off, …
Well, guys. We survived! Three days and more than four feet of snow later, the first official blizzard of 2014 is in the books. I’ve spent much of today doing the post-blizzard clean up.

Happy Monday, everyone! Is anyone as excited for the holiday week as I am? I know it’s a little weird with the 4th falling on a Wednesday, but there’s still a whole lot of celebration to be had. So today we’re chatting 4th of July style, which to me is all about keeping it comfy …
I’m so excited to be taking off for New York City and the National Stationery Show in a couple of days and that’s definitely influencing today’s post. On the show floor, comfort is key, but I’d be lying if I said being appropriately stylish wasn’t a major consideration when packing the suitcase every year. Comfy …
With my 29th birthday coming up this weekend and a little birthday getaway in the works, I had to pick up this funky patterned top when I stumbled on it at Target this week. I can’t get enough of the boxy shape and the color combination! It will be perfect paired with jeans and cute …
My good friend (and crazy talented designer) Jessica Tierney writes the most fabulous blog. One of her favorite features of mine is her Looks I Love column – stylish, inspired outfits that always make me wish I had a clothing budget the size of Oprah’s annual salary. In particular of late, I’m loving this look …
