Travel Aspirations

Travel Dream Vacation

One of the biggest things I’ve always admired about socialites is their ability to travel. From summers in Ibiza to winters in Aspen, socialites love to see and experience the world in style. When you’re spending half your income on New York City rent, the prospect of jet-setting around the world quickly goes out the window. This year, my boyfriend and I decided to really buckle down and save money for a trip to Europe. Should all go well, we’ll fly across the Atlantic in summer 2015.

Saving money has never been my forte. But, now that I’m saving for something exciting, I might be more inclined to put away a few dollars for a rainy day (in London that is.) Wish me luck!

St. Patrick’s Day Perfection!

St. Patrick's Day

As a Sullivan girl, I love celebrating my Irish side on St. Patrick’s Day with green beer, hard cider, and of course green fashion.  However, unless I come across a Leprechaun’s pot of gold hidden on the subway, sadly, this gorgeous Alice + Olivia number won’t be my St. Patrick’s Day outfit.  I’ll be sticking to a green ‘I “Shamrock” NY’ T-shirt with skinny jeans and tan boots when I hit the bars.  But, a girl can dream.  Like the island of Manhattan, the Emerald Isle is one of of dreams.  So I’ll continue to dream of high fashion and high rises the way my ancestors once did long ago in Ireland.  Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
