Seasons (Page 3)

Every year I look forward to purchasing summer clothing just as much as I anticipate the long hot days and endless summer nights. Going back and forth between my apartment in NYC and my parents’ beach house in Connecticut, I’ve been buying everything from swimsuits and dresses, to jewelry and sandals. Below are 20 items I’ve recently bought to wear in the city and at the ocean.    1. Lost + Wander sundress. An asymmetrical hem, a delicate floral pattern, and a flattering empire waist. What’s not to love about this sundress? 2. Show Me Your Mumu bodysuit. A simple white bodysuit, but the ruffle addsRead More →

Summer is officially upon us and that means long days spent lounging at the beach or by the pool. With that comes shopping for new swim apparel. We’ve created our annual swimsuit guide that’s filled with flattering one piece swimsuits and bikinis in various colors, patterns, and textures (think tie-dye, marble, space dye, metallics, stripes, and more). Because we know that everyone looks for something different when searching for the idea swimsuit, we’ve included a variety of silhouettes like a high cut leg, full coverage bottoms, cheeky bottoms, triangle tops, halter tops, tops for fuller busts, wrap detailing, deep v’s, just to name a few.Read More →

Traveling is one of my favorite things to do. It doesn’t matter if it’s a quick day trip to an unknown city or a 14 hour flight to an exotic country; I love doing both. I’ve been fortunate enough to visit Italy, Ireland, and Mexico, but I have more places on my bucket list that I can’t wait to see. With the pandemic under control and having spent the previous year locked indoors, I’ve been thinking a lot about where I want to vacation next. My dream is to travel the world while experiencing each country’s culture, cuisine, traditions, fashion, and daily way of life.Read More →

Taking a road trip is more than just a drive, it’s an entire experience that’s filled with memories and exploring hidden areas on the way to your destination. You can blast your favorite music, take in the beautiful scenery, and stop at numerous roadside attractions. To me, the drive itself is just as much fun as vacationing at my destination. This summer, my boyfriend and I will drive to Joshua Tree. Although our trip is short when compared to some of the other adventures I’ve embarked on, I’m still using the same tools to plan for this voyage. Whether I’m driving a few hours awayRead More →

Mother’s Day is fast approaching and we’ve picked out our top choices for the special women in your life. Our recommendations are a little different from previous years in that everything on our list is a themed subscription box filled with amazing products. Most of these boxes are delivered at a specific time so they may arrive after Mother’s Day.

Eight or sixteen bags of gourmet coffee and chocolate bars that ships from Seattle’s top-rated coffee makers. The box comes with roaster profiles and tastingRead More →

This is my first spring in New York City so, of course, I want to get the most out of it. Now that businesses are reopening, there’s so much to do and see. Because I just moved to the city a few months ago, I went straight to the source. I asked a few New Yorkers what are their favorite things to do as the weather gets warmer. From outdoor theaters to cruises on the water, here are 34 recommendations that will make the most out of your spring and take you back to pre-pandemic days. P.S. Soon, a lot of businesses will require proofRead More →

With spring and summer on the horizon, taking a day trip from Los Angeles to one of these destinations is a fun way to vacation without going too far. There are so many must-see spots you can travel to that are just a short distance away. I’ve chosen five of my go-to destinations and highlighted my favorite restaurants, things to do, and attractions at each. For each trip, the starting point is Downtown Los Angeles, departing at 7AM. Ojai, Ventura County – 1 hour 40 minutes “With nature all around you and bohemian vibes, there’s so much to do and see in this charming town.”Read More →

It’s hard to believe that it’s already been an entire year since the Covid-19 lockdowns began. Most of 2020 was spent hibernating indoors, but things are finally looking up. Restaurants, museums, movie theaters, salons, and other businesses are opening up again after being closed for months. While there will still be mask mandates and capacity limits to ensure everyone’s safety, I’m eager to return to a sense of normalcy. This means that springtime in Los Angeles will be the start of getting back to our lives pre-Covid, especially with the influx of vaccines becoming readily available. We still need to be careful when we’re goingRead More →

Did you create any New Year’s resolutions for 2021? If you didn’t, it’s not too late to start. If you already fell off the wagon, so to speak, I’m going to show you how easy it is to jump right back on. Every year when January 1st begins I make a list of changes I want to make and things I’d like to do better. I start out strong. Then I break my progress. Why? Because life gets in the way or I lose sight of why I made the resolution in the first place. Eventually, I stop working towards my goals all together andRead More →
