Home Sweet Home

Home Sweet Home

 

So a few weeks ago, this NYC momma has become suburban! I know. It was definitely bittersweet. But all are adjusting and loving all of the space. We basically bought into the town we wanted for the schools and location. We however could not find our true dream home, so we had to make it! We started construction this week and we are really excited to see it when its done. We are redoing the entire kitchen, den, dining room and building a master bedroom with two walk in closets and master en suite bathroom. So ever since I knew we were house hunting I have been pinning furniture ideas. That's the fun part, right?! Here are a few of my faves.

I love love love www.zgallerie.com - they are only in the west coast or down south, so when we were in San Francisco, I stopped in and placed a very large order! I love a lot of grey and white, as well as taupe and beige, and some teals and other colors to brighten them up. I have almost finished picking out everything for the kitchen and then the den is next. After that, its on to painting and lighting and finally I will begin to think about the master bathroom.

So I am juggling my son, my event planning career and being a project manager as well as head interior decorator at my own house. Lets just say, thank goodness its summer! In the few moments of downtime, I have been relaxing at the pool and our new big backyard. Sometimes life is good, even in the middle of a construction period!

Summer 2015

Now that it is really starting to feel like summer, I have the shopping bug! I got some really cool pieces that can go day or night. I got this first top in a pink color with some white jeans and my new Valentino rock stud pumps. Then a simple black tank with my new favorite summer staple these AG distressed denims, my Hermes bangle and these Vince Blair slip ons! (Order them a 1/2 size smaller, they run big!) What have you bought for this summer?!

Vacation

The weather is getting warmer , which always makes me want to shop! We are going to California in June and I wanted to get a few new things to bring with. We are heading to San Francisco first to walk around and hubby has a race. Then we are going to Napa Valley and Sonoma for some day drinking and vineyards :) Here are some day and night time things I got to come with us! I got a similar top at Jcrew Factory. As for the Chanel shoes I got the patent leather toe ones at the Chanel store.

Bookworm Themed Birthday party!

I cannot believe my baby turned two this year. TWO! Two years of his life has flashed before me! It was like he was just a little baby and now he's a toddler. I wanted to throw him an amazing party and I think (hope!) I did really good job. My son loves to read so I did a bookworm reading theme. I got a few ideas from pinterest and let my imagination do the rest. Here are a few shots from the party! I think the place I had it at was awesome and the instructors had tons of energy. All of the 20 kids had a blast!

Work it



Brrrr. Just because it's winter doesn't mean I have to stop working out! We are off in one month for a tropical vacay and I need to make sure I don't forget to work out just because its so cold! Here are a few of my favorite items to use for winter workouts. I started buying a few more things, including this amazing bag to bring with me when I go to spin. This song has really got me going lately on long runs and it will be great when the results pay off! What are some of your favorite cold weather workout gear?

My Favorite Things Week!

I love when people post their favorite things. It makes me start to shop! So I wanted to share a few of my favorite things this week as winter starts to pour in. What are your favorite things this week?


Baby Jogger Hand Muff
So great for warming hands while pushing your stroller, without having to take gloves on and off 



Kind Bars
Delish. I always eat one after a run or after a spin class. My favorite lately is Dark chocolate with nuts and seal salt. Yum. 




L'Oreal Shampoo
This shampoo has been amazing for my hair this winter. And its only $3.99. That beats my normal $30 shampoo that I get from the hair salon!




Map My Run

This is a really great app I downloaded on my iPhone. And its free! It helps track my miles and my calories. It also alerts me through my headphones when I have reached every mile. So during the longer runs I don't have to keep looking at my phone, I can just go!



Old Navy Cozy Socks

Ahhh. These are amazing. They are warm and come in fun colors. I have a ton of pairs and love to slip them on around the house.
