un jour dans la vie

10 things I love about this short-work-day, holiday Friday

1. Meeting a friend for burgers and shakes at the burger joint.

2. Sitting in the sun and reading British Vogue along the Highline.

3. My crazy outfit today: pale blue pants and a navy blazer (channeling east coast prep-school I guess!)

4. A weekend of Alexander McQueen, lobster rolls, BBQs and beaches to look forward to!

5. Although I’m sad my hero of a little brother isn’t with us this year on his favorite holiday, we will be welcoming him back in about 2 months!!

6. A new, lovely J. Crew bathing suit on it’s way to mi casa!

7. Celebrating, from afar and in my heart, my grandfather’s 80th birthday!! Wish I could be in the mountains celebrating with them, but so glad my mom is able to be there!

8. Making a blueberry pie from scratch on the 4th!!

9. Fireworks on the Hudson

10. This crazy, ridiculous, wonderful, insane country I call home.
