Tillamook Melty Fest Tour DC

Last night I attended the kickoff event for the Tillamook Melty Fest Tour which starts today and runs until July 28!

To celebrate this new launch, Tillamook is throwing the Melty Fest Tour to introduce their award-winning cheese and ice cream to Washingtonians! I was lucky enough to receive a package of Tillamook cheese and ice cream earlier this month and

The People's Drug

Who else remembers People’s Drug stores from your childhood? The pharmacy was headquartered in Alexandria, VA with locations up and down the east coast. I still remember going to People’s with my parents as a kid to stock up on pharmacy needs, cosmetics, and more. People’s was eventually bought by CVS in the 90s, but thanks to the new cocktail bar, The People’s Drug, based in Old Town Alexandria, we can now pay homage to the iconic brand any day of the week! Back in April we

Ladurée + ELOQUII

Last week I visited Ladurée in Georgetown for the first time on my birthday with my girl Arielle Lewis Studios! You may know I love anything French so celebrating my birthday at a place such as Laudrée was a no-brainer. Laudrée is located in Georgetown and it’s so stunningly adorable. There are elegant chairs, chandeliers, and all the macarons your little heart could desire. The staff is all French, making me feel like I had instantly been transported to Paris. The Laudrée br

VA IS FOR LOVERS...

French cafes and fancy dresses. What’s better than that? Brunching at French cafes wearing fancy dresses. This month I teamed up with Gwynnie Bee, one of my fave online style memberships, to show my state superlative of style AND give details for a fabulous #GBMyCityStyle Summer Road Trip contest, which I'm urging you all to enter (keep reading for details!)! To me, Virginia is for lovers, who love a great weekend brunch. Brunch is literally a way of life for us DC Area res

Cheers to 33 & Le Diplomate

Yesterday was my 33rd birthday. While some people are weird about age, I view age as just a number. Theres no reason to get upset about age, because the way I see it- theres absolutely nothing that can be done about it. We can't go back in time, or age in reverse, so the best thing to do is just embrace it and be happy that we are given another year in life! For my birthday this year, I decided to take it easy. To be 100% honest, I spend so much time planning and hosting even

Fab Friday: Golden Samovar Restaurant

Two weekends ago I was invited to a tasting dinner at Golden Samovar Restaurant in the Rockville Town Square for a tasting menu. My friend and blog partner, Rita of Rituska Inc, is friends with the owners of Golden Samovar and we made a double date out of the evening and brought our husbands for a fun night out. I had never been to the Rockville Town Square, so it was a nice change of scenery for the night. Side note- who knew Rockville Town Square had a Vogue mural!? My outf

Bubbles & Bloggers Barbie Brunch

Fun Fact: did you know Barbie turned 58 this month? Barbie was released on March 9, 1959, marking March an important anniversary month for the beloved doll! When I started to plan the March Bubbles & Bloggers with the extreme help of Caroline, I didn't even put two and two together that it was Barbie's birthday month (as it is Carolines!) when she requested a Barbie theme for our brunch meet up. Knowing the theme would be a complete hit- and it was- I eagerly agreed this was
