Postcard from Top of the Rock

Tweet Whenever people go to Paris, I tell them to skip going up the Eiffel Tower and head up the Arc de Triomphe instead: it’s so bizarre to see the Paris skyline without its iconic structure.

What I’m going to do more of in 2013

Tweet Oh, how I love new year’s resolutions–and being held accountable for achieving them! As much as I believe that we should be trying to change for the better every day, there’s nothing like a brand-new calendar year to offer that extra kick to achieve our goals.

The perfect travel dress (and a Shabby Apple giveaway!)

Tweet I fully believe in the power of a good travel dress. A good travel dress can be dressed up or dressed down, can go effortlessly from day to night, will work with practically any shoes or accessories and doesn’t wrinkle or show much wear. It’s a whole outfit in itself, which is key no [...]

Postcard from the streets of Cartagena

Tweet Street art is one of those things that can make or break a city for me. A city that encourages good graffiti–or at the very least, recognizes the difference between ugly tagging and talented artwork–is instantly a place that I want to explore. Cities with white-washed walls simply feel sterile, devoid of emotion and [...]
