Last week I got to go to one of my favorite cities with a bunch of my best friends from college! It was such a fun trip full of laughter, country music, great food and more! I literally can’t wait to go back and I just got home. Here are some of the pictures I took and some of the things we did!

Clearwater, it’s pretty clear that I love you. In celebration of completing Marathon Month at Orange Theory and running my best time ever for a half marathon, I took a quick weekend trip to Clearwater, Florida with Allison. We wanted to take a trip that involved nothing except beach, good food and sunshine. Obviously Florida is the place to go! I had never been to Clearwater but I can honestly say its one of my favorite beaches now. Here is a brief travel guide to what we did!

Does this dress make my sunburn look bad? I sure hope not. This past weekend I took a short trip to Clearwater, Florida to get some much needed rest and sunshine…but I may have overdone it on the sunshine. Regardless, Clearwater is such a great beach town and I had such an amazing time. I’ll post a big trip recap later, but I did want to share this Vici dress with you now because it’s available for presale! If you know me, you know I love stripes so I know I’ll be wearing this dress all summer. Details below!

A few weeks ago I was lucky to travel halfway across the world to China to visit my best friend Taylor. Bragging moment: Taylor has been studying Chinese and East Asian studies or the past 10 years, so she’s pretty much fluent and took such good care of me! (She also knows 5 other languages… but who’s counting?) What a different world it is over there! We stayed in Shanghai and Nanjing and those two cities are so different from each other. The food was amazing, the architecture was nothing like I’d seen before and I was so happy to get to hang out with Taylor for a week because I haven’t seen her in 6 months. I’m calling this my first trip to China because now I have a 10 year visa, so I’m looking forward to going back one day! Here are a bunch of pictures I took and the places we went!

It’s been a few days, but I finally had time to make a new gift guide. This particular guide is for the person in your life who loves to travel. Some of these items are as cheap as $10, while others are much more expensive but last a while and are worth it. Even though Black Friday and Cyber Monday have already passed, some of these items are also on sale! Links are listed below:
And for those who celebrate, Happy Hanukkah!
Chicago, its certainly bean a while! (ha I love bean puns). A week ago I was in a very snowy Chicago. Now its snowing here in Maryland, so I guess I can’t escape it until March. Lucky for me I love snow and all things associated with snow. This new sweater I got from Vici reminds me of ice and snow (like if Elsa were to wear a sweater in 2018, this would be it). Vici is one of my new favorite online stores and I can’t wait to buy more sweaters on Cyber Monday (if I can hold out that long). It was absolutely freezing in Chicago when I look these pictures but I hope you can’t really tell how cold I was. Word of advice, don’t take off your coat in Chicago, no matter how cute your sweater is.
Over the weekend I took a trip to Chicago to visit my loveliest friend, Peyton. It’s been a few years since I last visited Chicago and now Peyton and I have graduated! I’ve always loved her Alma Mater because the entire campus is absolutely incredible, especially in the fall! With the Gothic architecture and the ivy leaves, I have such appreciation for UChicago and I’m glad we were able to walk around and take in all the fall leaves. Although it was super chilly, it was sunny and I finally got to wear my new camel coat from Old Navy (on sale now!!!). Details and links below!
Have I ever told you how much I love my job? I feel like I’ve had to have mentioned how I am so thankful to work where I do with some incredible, boss-ass women who I respect so much. I haven’t mentioned it? Well here it is now. Everyday I am learning so much about life and my industry and I couldn’t be more blessed, especially after this weekend. (I probably sound like a broken record). Honestly, I like to keep my job as private as possible on this blog, so I can keep the two worlds as separate as possible. But last weekend I went on a corporate retreat to celebrate my company’s anniversary in Jamaica and I wanted to share a few pictures from it!

Last weekend I visited one of my best friends, Cori, in her hometown of Brick, New Jersey! I haven’t been to the Jersey Shore in like 4 years and it was so nice being back and seeing where she grew up. We had such a fun girls weekend with a bunch of my friends from college but in all honesty, parts of the weekend are a little blurry because we spent most of our time bar-hopping. But one of the first places Cori took all of us was Playa Bowl and it was absolutely incredible. I am so sad that we don’t have one near me in Maryland. Here is what I wore and some HD pictures of my playa bowl.
Last week I went on my first business trip all the way in San Francisco! My company is based in Washington D.C. so it was definitely a bop and a half to get over there, but it was my first time in California. I really only had an afternoon to go exploring and I was all by myself but here are some of the pictures I took while playing tourist.
