I am absolutely horrible at keeping secrets — so the biggest challenge of wedding planning so far has been keeping wedding details under wraps, both on the blog and with friends and family.

Coral Capabilities.

4 Comments Posted by on May 30, 2012

I got a touch of a tan sitting out this weekend and my immediate reaction was to pull out the turquoise jewelry and white shirts — I have to maximize my minimal tanning capabilities with complementary hues!

It was a truly relaxing weekend, filled with all the signs of summer. I broke out some Americana-inspired color palettes and a new white lace dress, all the girls in Boston have officially switched from Sperrys boat shoes to Jack Rogers sandals, and sweet tea vodka with lemonade was my choice concoction for outdoor drinking.

My sister pointed out this weekend, as we were having lunch outside in Boston, how oh-so-very-preppy my city can be. We played a game where we started to count the number of girls with Longchamp bags and Jack Rodgers sandals went walking by on the sidewalks of  Newbury Street.  It’s easy to get caught up [...]
