a hillside trip

His eyes. Blurring past Autumn trees, reds, yellows, oranges blending together in a beautiful mix of wonder and road trip nostalgia. Gripping hands listening to old Beatles and new rap and laughing about how we had no idea where we were going or where we even were. My boyfriend and I took a trip to upstate New York and rented and Airbnb for the weekend. These are the photos.

Surrounded by glass and tribal rugs and soft couches with delicate flowers. Falling leaves, rustic branches, the setting sun over the hills. Artwork scattered on the fields below us. Warmth, wine, and checkers. 

It was cold and I was excited to layer up in jackets, gloves, and scarves, but it was also nice to take that all off and laze around cozy basking in the sunlight that came through the windows...

That last one is a joke too!!! Literal candid. Go-to kissy face. You know the drill.

Worn: Free People turtleneck & lace bodysuit, Brandy Melville skirt, thigh high socks

The bae took all these photos. I love you.

Farmers markets. Cafes. Cappuccinos and delicious waffles. A beautiful weekend with the love of my life. 

If you guys want more information on where we stayed, you can message me! We stayed in Mountainville and visited Blooming Hill Farm + more. Highly recommend that farm for breakfast!

Much love and thanks so much. I know this wasn't my usual type of post but I love trying different things. Hope you like it too.

Xoxo,

Hey there loves! Sorry for the little break but we all know why that happens. I have something extremely exciting to share with you. On last Thursday, I got the pleasure in shooting for Free People  on Top of the Rock, aka the building with the coolest view of New York City I've ever experienced. It was foggy, an early morning, photographing in stunning dresses that are my favorite brand was an experience that I will treasure for a lifetime. I picked a few snippets from the photos to show you, but you will see plenty more on the Free People Rock center Facebook page & on their Instagrams.

Thank you so much to Gigi who invited me along for this opportunity (@je_mappelle_geeg) and the amazing photographer Dave Krugman (@dave.krugman) who captured the beauty of everything so well. Check out his site here! Also the lovely Claudia (@claudunia) who was so fun to shoot with.

Don't forget to check out @freepeoplenewyorkcity & @rockcenternyc.

Thanks so much to those who looked and liked the photos! It means the world to me. The fact that I got to do this in general has me feeling over the moon. So, so blessed for everything. 

Xoxo,
