If you follow me on Pinterest (or took a peek at the widget on the homepage) you may have noticed that for the last few days I’ve been pinning tons of images of living rooms/family rooms and dining rooms. While these rooms are gorgeous in their entirety, and most of the furniture is perfect, the reason I’ve […]

Cocktail Hour | Sparkling Apple and Cranberry Cocktail
This is another cocktail that I’m revising a bit, folks. Because creativity! And also, I don’t love pear, which this recipe originally called for. With fall just around the corner (you can’t deny it any more – right now the temperature in Massachusetts is hovering in the low 70’s and it’s glorious!) this cocktail is […]
Cocktail Hour | Remixed French 75
You guys… this week has been a week. Some weird things have happened and it’s been… just weird. I very rarely find myself getting home at night and heading straight for the wine bottle, but that’s exactly what I did last night. In honor of that, I bring to you this week’s cocktail – The French […]
Welcome To Our New Home!
Moving Day was May 9, and Chuck and I are still not 100% settled in our new home. There are still things that need to be hung up, blinds that need to be purchased (because the previous owners removed every.single.set.), and spaces that need to be filled. So, knowing that we aren’t really done – […]
Wedding Wednesday | The Dress
It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything about my wedding – in fact, it’s been a while since my wedding – nearly 5 months, to be exact. Some time has passed, I’ve come down from the high of it all (a bit…) and now I’m ready to share with you, my lovely readers, some […]
Violette Tide Studios – Giveaway!
So – do you all remember waaaay back in 2010 when I first started this little website o’ mine? It started as a blog to basically bust the boredom I was feeling in law school. However, someone who made that time in law school a bit more bearable was Leah – we were in the same section […]
Cocktail Hour | Cranberry Vodka Spritzer
This summer has been our very first Summer of Weddings. You know, that thing that happens to everyone where suddenly all of their friends and relatives are of marrying age and they all decide to get married at the same freaking time. Including our wedding in March (because why wouldn’t I include the highlight of […]
Nicky Hilton’s Wedding Gown Killed It
Now this, ladies and gentlemen, is a wedding gown. Nicky Hilton – younger sister of Paris – married James Rothschild (yes, of those Rothschilds) over the weekend and wore the most beautiful wedding gown I’ve ever laid eyes on. The lace Valentino gown had long sleeves and seemed to take a note from Grace Kelly (Princess Grace […]
Cocktail Hour | Watermelon Splash
It’s Friday which means… it’s Cocktail Hour! You guys, my absolute favorite holiday – Independence Day – is right around the corner! While I’m not much of a party-girl for the majority of the year, the Fourth of July is one of the times when I really let my hair down and enjoy myself – […]
Cocktail Hour | Strawberry Gin Smash
Ahhh, summer. After what is probably the worst winter in the history of winters (we actually broke some snowfall records) it’s finally, finally, warm here in New England. And with warm weather comes lots of entertaining and gathering. From here on out, my husband (oh, that’s fun to say!) and I are booked pretty much every […]
