Father's Day

This past Sunday my mom was in New Orleans, and Quinn was at beach week; therefore, it was up to Sean and I to make Father's Day great for our dad.  We relaxed at home for the first half of the day; later in the afternoon we decided to drive into D.C. and explore the monuments.  We looked like tourists taking pictures on the mall, but we didn't care.  After the heat became unbearably hot we drove to Rumors, a bar and restaurant that my dad used to work at.  Then we drove into Old Town to eat some seafood for dinner.


I took these photos of the National Monument.  

                 My dad's idea to do the pose that Sean and most boys do when taking photos.





I was supposed to be touching the top, pretending to prick my finger.  However, I clearly didn't line up myself correctly.  
I wore this Ecote Guaze True Blue Frock Dress in black and white ($59). 
I wore it with this black Free People halter bralette ($39). 
I wore these Erika Ray Bans in tortoise ($115).  
All the photos above were taken by Sean.  
                                            The Lincoln Memorial (photo taken by me).


The National Monument and Reflecting Pool (photo taken by me). 
                                                      Raw Oysters at The Fish Market.
The oysters were delicious, I ordered a lobster roll which was good; however I would not suggest ordering the raw clams.

Obviously I had to snap some pics of my dad with the Father's Day snapchat filters.  

I hope all Fathers had a great day!

Quinn's Graduation

Last Thursday my older brother, Quinn, graduated from Yorktown High School.  The graduation was held at D.A.R. Constitution Hall.  It was an incredibly hot and exciting day.  I'm so happy for my brother and the other graduates; however, it did not hit me until graduation day how much I am going to miss Quinn.

I wore a Forever 21 maxi dress featured in the Bethany Beach blog post.  

Quinn leaves for school next week because he will be playing Division One football at Towson University.  We are so excited for Quinn and cannot wait to watch him play college ball.  

Congratulations class of 2015!

Current Favorites


Accessories...
I am obsessed with this Marc by Marc Jacobs watch I bought last week.  I thought the grey was super fun because I don't know anyone that has it.  The color is also very versatile; however the design is very sleek and simple.  

Food...
One of my new favorite places to eat at is Cava.  I went to the grill in Tysons Mall and am officially a fan!  

Fashion...
Jumpsuits are the newest trend I cannot wait to give in to.  I love maxis and rompers, so what is better than both styles in one.  I just ordered this one from Forever 21 (pictured above) because it is only $29, and I can decide whether this new look is for me.  

TV Shows... 

This is really embarrassing, but Rich Kids of Beverly Hills on E! is my newest guilty pleasure.  The people on the show are horrible and don't know what real life is like.   However I love their clothes and they can be really funny, in a horrible spoiled kid way #fabuluxe #rich.
