Aside from an unhealthy obsession with J.Crew a few years ago, I wouldn’t normally classify myself as preppy. Maybe a touch of gingham and a crisp button-up shirt here and there, but you probably won’t find me repping giant Tory Burch logos or Lily Pulitzer prints. I did, however, feel inspired to embrace my inner prep while traveling up the coast over the weekend. I packed this scalloped skirt in white and my very first pair of Jacks among other New England-inspired pieces. On the top of my wishlist: this leather and canvas tote (now 40% off!) and this floral print backpack (drool). Just the right combination of pretty and prep.

Maybe it’s the pervasive smell of hot garbage talking, but NYC and I have been on the outs lately.
All summer long, I’ve had this strong urge to escape New York. Not in any permanent way (we’re not quite there yet), but a weekend will usually do the trick. We went to Asbury Park in June, visited Long Beach in July and drove up to the North Shore this past week. When quick getaways aren’t an option, James and I stay in the city and I opt for easy one piece outfits, like this cold shoulder romper or this off-the-shoulder dress (coming to the blog later this week).
Shop Cold Shoulder Rompers:
A few weeks ago, we ventured over to one of my favorite spots across the East River: the Brooklyn Bridge Park in DUMBO. I love it because you get a panoramic view of the skyline and the feeling of leaving the city without actually leaving. We watched the sun set over the Manhattan Bridge and in that moment, I felt like I was exactly where I need to be. I hope you feel the same, wherever you are!
