PRUNE 1

If you’re following along on instagram you may have already seen what I ate and did in New York a couple of weeks ago, but I like to do a recap to keep track of where and what. From time to time a friend will ask for suggestions, and I like how the blog let’s [...]

I’m in New York for the week, and thought I’d share a couple of my favorite travel companions. *Baggu zipper bags keep my carry on and my luggage organized.

A TRIP TO AUSTIN, TEXAS

Austin Texas

We went to Texas a couple of weekends ago for a wedding at Lake Travis, and spent a few days in Austin. It was my first trip, and as you would imagine the food truck scene, bbq, and taco situation was amazing. I wasn’t expecting much in the way of art, but happened upon a [...]

COVETTING * SUMMER SHADE

I’m headed to Savannah this weekend for a little boating and beach time. I must confess that I spend the majority of my time in the sun, but these Sombrilla’s from Hollie and Harrie have me seeking a little shade. Based in Melbourne, Australia, Hollie and Harrie ship these stylish 95% UV protection Sombrilla’s worldwide.

Slacking on the blogging for a bit… You can see why… Sometimes we need a break to let our minds wander.
