Travel Diary: Boston Trip 2018

A little over one year ago, I took a trip with my best friend to Boston! We found round trip airfare for $90, and spontaneously bought it, and took a nice vacay. It was such an amazing trip! We were there for a few days during Memorial Day Weekend, and we felt like we did EVERYTHING!! Be prepared for a lot of pictures haha! (Better late than never for posting this, right?!)

DAY 1:
~We had an early flight to Boston, and hit the ground running with a trip to Sam Adams, and then exploring some historical places in Boston. 




DAY 2
~We took a day trip out to Salem via the ferry. What a gorgeous day! I highly recommend this if you have time while in the area. 



Note to self: come back to Salem, and stay in this B and B.





DAY 3
~Embraced the tourist-ness, and walked the ENTIRE freedom trail. We also stopped by the Boston Commons, and Acorn Street in Beacon Hill. 







DAY 4
~I felt more connected to Elle Woods as we paid a visit to Harvard...however the Yard was closed for the alumni reunion, so if you want to walk the Yard, do not come visit over memorial day weekend.
~We also went to Fenway, but did not realize it was game day...but we found a place to have drinks that overlooked the ballpark!


Always have a sweet treat at Tatte.




Hope you enjoyed my Boston re-cap. Do you have any fun plans this summer? Let me know below!

As always,

Coastal Grandmother Aesthetic

  Who else has been loving the  Coastal Grandmother aesthetic trend on TikTok? I've been very engrossed in this trend that is actually not at all trendy and a nod to classic style, which I LOVE. Classic summer style is one of my favorite facets of classic style- linen dresses and pants, sun hats, walks on the beach and lots of rosé. This is literally me. And I consider myself a grandmillennial, so coastal grandmother is not too far off. Some may call it coast-grand-millennial ;) ALSO, a couple of weeks ago the Today Show did a segment on the trend, and featured a clip from one of my coastal gran TikToks! These are things you need to create your own coastal grandmother aesthetic, the coastal grandmother starter kit if you will. You probably have most of these things in your closet if you are a fellow classic style lover, like myself. So lets all live our lives as if we lived in a Nancy Meyers movie, and have the best coastal grandmother girl summer. Coast Grandmother Essentials...

What I Packed for Rhode Island

  I am SO excited to be back on the East Coast for a bit. Today, we are driving to Rhode Island to spend the long weekend and celebrate my cousin's 30th birthday (thirty, flirting and thriving, right?!). I have only been to Rhode Island on one other occasion, and that was a marching band trip where we marched in the oldest Fourth of July celebration in the country. Thinking back on that, it was a very surreal experience that I am grateful for, and I am even more excited to get to go back to that state and explore as an adult. As soon as I knew we would be going to Rhode Island, I thought about the outfits for the trip. It invoked a sense of the classic East Coast prep style that I already love so much, and so I took that as my packing inspiration! The Kiel James Patrick store/brand is based out of Newport, RI, so I will definitely be visiting and I had to leave room in my suitcase for some new KJP pieces. I haven't had to pack for travel in awhile, so I decided to take a new ap...

New Summer KJP (+ they're having a sale!!)

So today, I got the happiest email from Kiel James Patrick , featuring some super cute new pieces, and that they have a 4th of July sale!! The sale is 20% off any thing with the code America . I would definitely take advantage of this! Here are my favorite new things from KJP. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!! Striped shirt dress // I had all the feels when I saw this dress. First, it is striped AND a shirt dress! Second, it is actually named "Bristol Parade." That is the oldest 4th of July Parade in the country, and I had the privilege of marching in it during my high school marching band trip to New England in 2010 (omg that was 9 years ago?!?). That day it was about 110 degrees, and we wore all black uniforms....if you are familiar with the parade, it is a LONG LONG LONG route, and I somehow, barely survived. So, I think I need this dress for (just about) surviving that day, ahah! Flag sweater  // What a cute little flag sweater! I normally am not one ...
