  • Newport Clambake Club (Front)

    I grew up going to Newport, Rhode Island and having clambakes with my family and cousins. There’s nothing I love more than a clambake in New England during the summertime!

  • Play Golf for Health 

    My boyfriend recently got me back into golf and I love it, because, you know, health! Definitely not because of the cocktails, cute outfits, hot dogs, and vibes!

  • The Plaza New York

    Growing up, I *loved* Eloise. I remember the first time I did tea at the Plaza with my family, it was exceptional.

  • Boston Red Socks (Back)

    My dad is from Boston and raised us to root for the Red Sox! I still love visiting Boston and squeezing in a visit to Fenway if I can. Not to mention, I have like four Red Sox hats in my repertoire and will be a fan for life.

  • New York Yankees

    Living in New York now, it’s fun to head up to Yankee Stadium for a game every season. This past year I went to a Red Sox vs Yankees game and while I cheered on the Sox, the Yankees put up a good fight and I have to admit I just love their color palette.

    When you are craving a crispy, cold Coke, is there anything better?

  • Balthazar

    I live down the street from Balthazar in NYC. It’s an institution! It’s such a cozy vibe for dinner in the chilly months, but also a great spot for an almond croissant to go year-round. I have to walk past their crowded sidewalk often to get where I’m going, so it’s a pretty unforgettable establishment in my daily life.

  • The Colony hotel

    The first time I stayed at the Colony was for my golden birthday in 2018! I went back again this year and just love all of the pink and green. It's the cutest hotel ever!
