Axe Throwing in Brooklyn

Yes, axe throwing! And believe it or not, it wasn’t my first time giving it a try. My brother in law manages Hatchets & Hops, Buffalo’s first axe throwing club. I’ve stopped in a few times to just watch and even throw. I just have to say how fun and entertaining the entire experience is! And it’s catching on! There’s more to be coming to the big Apple soon. It's definitely different and harder than expected, but if you're looking for a group date night or an adult birthday gathering this definitely checks a ton of boxes! We actually first discovered this spot when attending a friends 30th last winter and once we moved to Brooklyn we realized it’s so close to us now. I'm not "axepert" but happy to share the details. I recommend KickAxe Throwing in Brooklyn or Hatchets and Hops in Buffalo, NY. It’s a great indoor winter activity to plan with groups and there’s even a bar and snacks at most locations. 

This night I just dressed casual, comfortable shoes are best but I’d be lieing if I said I’ve never thrown in heels 👠

Love the bright magenta of this oversized cardigan from Express and this is my go camisole top I know I'll be wearing into spring and summer again. It has adorable back detailing and also goes well under leather jackets and blazers. My necklace is from bauble bar and I also found two other great sale finds in the y style here and here.  

Winter Grey for a Casual Day

This grey sweater has become my tried and true go to for the winter. It's super soft has a great flutter sleeve and the turtle neck stays in place, it's warm without being itchy. I found it at TJMaxx and have shared some similar styles I love like this this grey option. My necklace is one of my favorites from bauble bar. 

My denim are Paige and run true to size. I love mixing prints and have been matching some as well lately like my favorite leopard belt and booties. After a snowy winter I'm anxious to find out Friday's ground hog outcome! I get a lot of questions on this Rebecca Minkoff bag! I love the wine color and it's the perfect size that can be converted to wear various ways. The strap is removable. Right now the website has tons of styles and colors all on sale too! 

Scarlett just loves any photo opportunity ! 

LB Off the Shoulder Romper

Our first stop on this summer's European vacation started off in Lago di Como, aka Lake Como, Italy. Having lived in Italy in 2009 and traveled through most major cities over the years I was  thrilled to explore the lake region, and it is absolutely breath taking from every corner! The perfect calm and tranquil retreat with lots to see, and of course eat! We stayed in the small town of Canedabbia across from Bellagio.

We loved how accessible it was to explore the lake region by the ferries. This first stop on our trip will always be a special one for me. It was beautiful shooting in this picturesque place, especially exploring around an old family villa where we toured the sprawling gardens and mansion. It was at this Villa Carlotta Kevin proposed on the highest balcony overlooking the lake. It truly felt like such a fairy tale ending to a perfect summer day and we couldn't be happier! 

More details on our engagement and staying in lake como soon to follow in travel.
