Lets switch things up this year.  Instead of opting for the usual NYE sparkling palette, lets go bold, with a leather dress, edgy pumps + a bright pink lip!  This look will certainly make for a memorable New Year's Celebration.  Cheers!

My sister got engaged a few weekends ago (yay! Congratulations).  We spent the weekend away celebrating, taking in the beautiful views of the lake.  These black leggings were my go-to (and still are).  They're thick, comfy + totally worth the price!  They have been perfect for the past few days leading up to Christmas.  With all the running around + last minute shopping/errands, it is so important to stay comfortable.  Merry Christmas!  ( Holiday looks to come...)

P.S. - My mom made this gorgeous gift box.  She's so talented!

Last weekend, I visited the place where I spent my summers growing up.    This tiny little boat house, which sits on Lake Winnipesaukee in Paugus Bay, was built by my Grandfather.  Although the house is no longer in the family, not much has changed.  I took a nostalgic walk along the train tracks: the place where my sister, cousin + I would spend all of our time when we weren't jumping off the dock into the lake. Almost everyday we would wait for the train to come by so we could watch our pennies laid the track become hot pieces of copper.  Nothing beats a summer by the lake...
