Vineyard Vines





TGIF everyone!  The weekend is here...who has some fun plans?  I love that we can be freer to roam now.  And, while we are all still social distancing to some degree, that doesn't mean we can't have fun.  The beach is always a great spot to find some.  It's a well known fact that the east coast is famous for its beaches.  From Cape May to the Hamptons, Rhode Island to Nantucket and on up to Maine, the landscapes are gorgeous and the style vibe is unmistakable.  Think preppy meets glam and you get a sense of what I am saying.  The pieces I've picked out for today's post really showcase the style well.  Blues, white, natural neutrals, and of course the classic pop of red, all capture the look beautifully.  Everything about an east coast summer has such an iconic feel to it and personally, I can never get enough.  Some great places to scoop up pieces that give the vibe are some of my favorite places to shop during the seaside season (think J. Crew, Tod's, Vineyard Vines, Jack Rogers and Kiel James Patrick).  Old fashioned American beauty at its best.  Light the bonfire and grab a towel for the clambake because truth be told, there is nothing quite like an east coast summer.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend, wherever the road leads you!

Merry Monday friends!  How was everyone's first December weekend?  Mine was filled with decorating, wreath shopping and the most delicious of meals (especially the fondue dessert! Get more holiday fun like that in my Instastories) with friends.  I also put a bow on my holiday shopping for everyone on my list.  Ahhhh, that is such a wonderful feeling!  Just in case you have more gift getting to do, I'm sharing my gift guide for the classic styler lover.  From head to toe her style says Americana with an unmistakable vibe of elegance and chic.   These pieces each capture that feel.  This scarf is the perfect pick for the preppy-loving friend who loves all things monogrammed.  These wellies and this super slim yet extra warm vest round out the look with understated style.  I think these gloves are the sweetest choice for the girl who has everything.  And finally, this faux leather tote is simply gorgeous, large enough to carry a laptop and affordable enough to scoop up in more than one pretty colorful.  Yes, it's under $20!  

I hope you find something your friends, sister, mom (or you!) will love!  Have a wonderful Monday everyone...and to my sweet Jewish friends, Happy Hannukah!

Growing up on the East coast meant summer were synonymous with the shore. That love of the summer sand and surf has never left me and now I've come to  grow that love up and down the shoreline.  Specifically, I adore the New England coast and quaint towns throughout Rhode Island and amid the islands off the Cape and throughout Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard.  Americana is no more alive than it is within these towns in the summer time.  Dressing the part of the classic New Englander is as fun as it is easy with pieces like these I'm sharing here today.  From the preppy favorite Vineyard Vines to the classic J. Crew, these looks all take you everywhere the summer roads travel and well-footed at that.  Jack Rogers always wins my heart for summer's most-loved footwear.  Stripes, straw bags and sunnies are among the essential must-haves of a summer well-spent.  This one-piece is also on my list as it's perfect for all the destinations on my list.  The other fun, quirky and classic pieces shown here can be shopped via the links below.  I hope you all love their sense of summertime happiness as much as I do...Happy Wednesday!

Summer weekends are some of the year's best and this being the first of the season makes me want to celebrate all things nautical.  Navy, white and hints of color and cream define some of the best looks of the beachside favorite.  One way to casually capture the feel is with some easy white denim, classic navy and white stripes and these Jack Rogers sandals.  Shore days call for more things than the average handbag can handle.  This tote makes easy work of having it all at your fingertips.  For those days that you can't get to the beach, nautical vibes are the perfect accent for your home as well.  These pillows are just what your couch needs during summer.  Don't forget to add a bit of sun-kissed goodness to your daily get ready routine with a delicious beach-inspired scent.  This one  from Bobbi Brown is a longtime favorite.  Other can't-go-wrong picks can easily be found at the preppy favorite Vineyard Vines and via the links below.  Hope you're all enjoy a sweet start to summer!

Happy Monday!  It's always nice to begin the new week with some fresh summer inspo and these all-American pieces are some of my favorites.  Honestly, you can never really go wrong with the classic combo of navy, white and red.  Accents of gold and cognac like this watch and this tote work beautifully to tie these nautical vibes all together.  Classic shops that feature some of the best summer styles like these include Vineyard Vines, J. Crew, Madewell, Tory Burch and Kate Spade.  You can shop my American faves via the links below.  Happy summer shopping!

One of summer's greatest luxuries is the extended length of time it allows for travel.  From beach fronts to jet set, July and August are quintessentially reserved for 'being on holiday'.  My list of must-sees is so expansive, I could probably write a whole week's worth of posts dedicated to each lovely little locale.  So, I figured let's start slowly with a few of my local favorites as well as a couple luxe wishlist spots.  We are so lucky to live in a country that is home to such gorgeous and historically rich spots from coast to coast.  One of my all time favorite east coast get-aways is Cape Cod  flanked by the islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard.  If you've been, you know why.  If you haven't, get thee to a Vineyard Vines asap, haha.  Honestly though, the Americana feel that the New England coastal towns possess is like nothing else I've seen anywhere.  The history and cultural they give off are timeless and iconic (hello Jackie O.) With so many great places to stay, shop and dine you'll want to plan carefully.  Be sure though not to miss this sunset catamaran cruise…amazing! Also, if you're looking for a true taste of the island and fantastic place to stay don't miss the Wauwinet Inn.  You'll never want to leave! 

 Also on my list for great summer escape right here in this wonderful country of ours is California's Napa Valley.  If you really want to pull out all the stops and bask in the delightfulness of world class luxury, be sure to get acquainted with Auberge du Soleil.  The sweeping views are incredible and the seasonal packages offered are designed to meet your specific needs.  So with the east and west coasts covered, my travel diaries would never be complete without a taste of Europe and its unmistakable flair.  First on my list, like so many of us, is a little trip to Paris.  Ahh, the romance and elegance of the city of lights is nearly impossible to beat.  While I haven't yet been myself, I've heard lovely things about its sights and stays.  Le Bristol Paris, cleverly located off the Champs-Elysées, the most glamorous of French-famed shopping streets, is just a bit off the beaten path giving it a more private feel.  A gorgeous garden courtyard, winding staircase and rooftop views are like a Pinterest board that's come to life.  

So, those are just a few places I  highly recommend exploring when wanderlust comes calling.  Just for fun I've added some great vacay items you can wear here or there. You can shop them via the links below.  Hope you all have a lovely weekend and stay tuned for the best of Nord's Anniversary Sale coming soon (or shop early access for cardholders here).

What's in my Beach Bag?


Heading to the beach this weekend?  Here are some of the essentials I always like to throw in my bag before heading to the sand and surf.  I find that they are truly excellent skin and hair savers amid the elements.  I also make room for some cute extras as well. 
Have a great weekend!
