NEW YORK


Last day in Palm Beach - see you soon NY!

Neon Trend


Even thought I am known for wearing all black in the winter*, I like to sport bright colors (think Lilly or louder) during Spring and Summer. Needless to say, I am loving the neon trend. While I might not be wearing neon colors head to toe, I will be making an effort to incorporate neon into my day!

Here are some favorite finds on Etsy:











*It has gotten to the point where my mom makes jokes that I am in "mourning" for Spring and Summer

Wanderlust: The Film


If a movie gets a bad review, it's basically a guarantee I will LOVE it (just ask KBW and GAO). Keeping with the trend is the movie WANDERLUST - I loved it and thought it was so funny! One of the better girl movies I have seen in awhile...I know NLL agrees!

Chances are I will be seeing it again soon.

EmmaKisstina


For a long time I've been an EmmaKisstina fan, mainly for her illustrations. I was so excited and surprised to see she has a couple of scarves available too.

I have my eye on the Red Coral one!



Note to Self: Add one of these to my collection!

Bathroom Inspiration


I love a well though out home (mine is still a work in progress). I love scouring magazines, books, and the internet for inspiration. We are going to be redoing the bathrooms at our Palm Beach place, so I have spent a long time looking up inspiration pictures. While these may not be perfect for our Palm Beach place, I thought I'd share some of my favorite bathroom inspiration finds.

Aren't they so fun?!

Mini Muse: Pat McGee


Pat McGee started our as a surfer and ended up becoming the first women skateboard champion, at the age of 19! This California native even made it onto the cover of LIFE magazine. I kind of wish skateboarders still dressed like this - so much more glam!

The Breakers


After spending all day yesterday at the horse show in Wellington with NLL (more to come on THAT adventure later), I have been craving drinks at the Breakers - what better way to unwind?

Staples + Martha Stewart


I LOVE being organized, even though you wouldn't know it if you went to my room out on Long Island. In fact, I've been known to go out and buy books on organizing. Needless to say, I am so excited to swing by Staples and check out the Martha Stewart Home Office line. Who is more perfect for this then Martha? I plan on getting a new filing thing to help with the final stages of my magazine project and to organize my (growing) menu collection and mail!

Gold Gala Accessories


Now that I have the perfect dress for the Gold Gala, I am on the hunt for where to get fabulous accessories. Of course I'm going to stop by my usual go tos and look around, but I am for sure going to hold off until I go to my hidden gems (no pun intended) down in The Bitch.

As much as I wish my only accessory could be my tan, I think I need a little bit more to complete the outfit. The top three places I'll be searching:

Toblerone Bars


AEB stopped by my apartment last week for a quick cocktail and some gossip and she brought along one of my favorite treats - the Toblerone Bar or the adult kit kat bar, as one of my co-workers calls them. Needless to say, I've been indulging all week (as have my coworkers).

Exercise Routines


Now that DOM left Town, I find myself looking to get back on track with my daily exercise routine. He always has the most intense routines planned and almost always makes me feel bad about not sticking to my plan of attack. Motivation: Palm Beach and Bahama's Trip. Mission: stay motivated!

Now all I need is a plan...

Byredo Perfumes and Colognes


Founded in 2006 by Ben Gorham in Stockholm, Byredo perfumes might become something I collect. I originally spotted them in Colette, when I was living in Paris. They have such unique scents and the perfect minimalist approach to packaging. Not only are Byredo scents unbelievable, they have such fabulous names as well. Standouts include:
Gypsy Water and Mister Marvelous. Even cooler - they even had a set inspired by the classic novel
I Married Adventure by Osa Johnson!

I've Got Your Number


As I've mentioned in previous posts, Sophie Kinsella is one of my favorite authors. I can't wait to sit down and read her new book - it sounds like another good one!

Mini Muse: Elvis Presly


UH HUH - I'm All Shook Up!

Elvis (aka The King) had such such unique style - just the perfect amount of fun and flash!
