Catskills Weekend

A few weekends ago, Mark and I drove up to Phoenicia in the Catskills to stay at The Graham & Co and soak up some nature. The hotel was so charming and unbelievably relaxing. I really cannot wait to go back. A cute weekend away is best accompanied by cute accessories, so I brought along my new preppy-perfect tote from Kate Spade.

3.1 Phillip Lim Spring 2013 Runway Nails

This here is a little tribute to New York inspired by 3.1 Phillip Lim's Spring 2013 collection. His recent collections have been just fabulous, including the recent Pre-Fall line. I can't wait to see what comes down the runway this February.

My Weekend: 6.25.12

This past weekend was the first where I was in full-fledged summer mode. It included a trip to Fort Tilden with friends, delicious granola at the new Williamsburg restaurant Parish Hall and a new set of Sally Hansen Salon Effects (leopard from the Rock of Ages collection). Overall it was the right mix of fun and relaxing.

Apple Picking, Upstate NY

 

As full fall monsters (New Yorkers who become frantic with the turning of leaves and the prospect of freshly made apple cider), Mark and I made the exodus upstate. After a full day of exploring Storm King and not enough time to explore quaint antique stores as we had planned, we headed towards the best pick-your-own orchard we could find. The apples were a little past their peak, but it was still the perfect fall day, sunset included.

The apples have since become tasty afternoon snacks, apple turnovers, and an apple cake courtesy of Maddie (Headline Foods).
