Ralph's | Paris










I just got back from an amazing trip to Brussels, Paris & London (more photos to come!).  While in Paris, I had lunch on the terrace at Ralph's - the restaurant at the Ralph Lauren store in Saint Germain.  The whole property was absolutely beautiful – inside and out.  Every detail was seen to – in perfect Ralph Lauren style – from the architecture, landscaping, interior design, blue and white decor, rod iron furniture, and leather bound menus.  As if the atmosphere wasn't enough, we were given fried olives to start our lunch and caramel popcorn to end it.  With wine, yummy food, and a beautiful setting, it was a perfect afternoon in Paris.

Castiglion del Bosco









Castiglion del Bosco looks like a little piece of heaven in Tuscany.  With cooking classes, an amazing spa, wine tasting, gardens, golf, stunning Tuscan architecture, relaxing pools, and breathtaking landscaping, this estate is on my list of dream vacation destinations.

Dinner Party At Home
















[ Featured on Style Me Pretty Living ]

I had my talented photographer friend, Bryce Covey, come over to take a few photographs of a recent dinner party I threw with my mom at my parent's beautiful home.  We were celebrating my boyfriend's graduation with our two families - we kept the decor simple and natural so that the focus stayed on the food, drinks and, most importantly, the company.
