Just wanted to check in and say that I hope everyone's holiday was wonderful and that I will be back to my regular posting schedule tomorrow. My parents are still in town so I am going to soak up as much time with them as I can before they have to head back to Seattle. Here's to having a great week and wishing you and yours lots of love! xo ... Read the post
MSP Holiday Style Guide, Part Three: Black & Blue Gowns
Dress: Fame and Partners Get the look: I love the excuse to wear a long gowns so when Fame and Partners asked if I wanted to try some of their dresses, I was super excited. I chose these styles and couldn't love them more. These two looks are for the girl who loves a fancy night out and will take any excuse to get all dolled up. Lately I haven't had a ton of opportunities to get super dressy so it was so fun to break out these gowns and style them up! Dress: Fame and Partners Get the look: Photos by Casey P.S. One ...

MSP Holiday Style Guide, Part Three: Jumpsuits & Leather Leggings
Alright, here we go again friends - day THREE of holiday dressing! Today's two looks are for the girl that wants to wear pants to the party but still look put together.

Outfit #3: Jacket: Top Shop | Tank: Zara | Skirt: Forever 21 | Heels: Who What Wear x Target | Earrings: Hart Tassels in Champagne Shimmer Continuing the week of holiday dressing!

Breakfast Picnic in the Park
I’ve lived in the city for over a decade now and as much as I adore the hustle and bustle, I love carving out quality time for myself outdoors to reconnect, breathe and just have “me” time. Having grown up in the PNW, I was surrounded by the ocean, so my happy place is being by a body of water, which I find incredibly calming and centering especially when I am feeling a bit burnt out by the city.For this particular outing, I decided to head to Williamsburg and sit down by the waterfront, which looks out over the East River ...

72 Hours In Franciacorta, Italy
I hadn’t been back to Italy since 2012 and wasn’t quite sure when I would be so when I was invited on a press trip to Franciacorta I was over the moon.
