Immediately following our afternoon in the Hamptons on Saturday, James, Tracy and I drove another 45 minutes to the most eastern point of the island.  We visited the Montauk Point Lighthouse — New York’s oldest lighthouse.  The sun was quickly setting, but we made it just in time to take in the coastal fixture and wander down to the shore so that Tracy could see the Atlantic Ocean for the first time ever.

And as summer quickly comes to an end, I thought I’d make use of a few of my favorite  warm-weather staples one last time.  It’s hard to transition away from my favorite season of the year, but I’m glad I got to have one hell of a weekend say goodbye.

prepping for fall.

Going from princess to prep today.  This week has been particularly gloomy and I find myself reaching for darker colors already.  Plus, there’s much less fuss in throwing on a denim shirt, a striped skirt, and a pair of flats.  With the three day weekend around the corner, my wardrobe and I are already on cruise control and ready for fall.

Today marks the completion of my first year in New York City!  It’s been a year full of challenges and adventures — with a bit of glamour and a whole lot of grit.  Still, I’ve been lucky enough to have experienced a few magical moments in NYC and I couldn’t imagine a better way to celebrate my first year here than by having a little Carrie Bradshaw moment of my own.

Walking the Brooklyn Bridge for the first time was a special moment for me.  It took me nearly six months to actually do it, but once I did, I realized how for the first time, walking from Brooklyn to Manhattan felt like I was heading home.  So now I return from time to time — not usually dressed in a fluffy tulle skirt and lace up heels — but always in awe of incredible city I get to call home.
