Happy Thursday, one more sleep until the weekend! 

Woo hoo! 

Did any of you listen to the Yanny / Laurel soundbite?
My co-workers and I polled everyone that walked in and out of our office, including the postal and UPS workers. We were all split. I heard Yanny all day long, but in the evening I couldn't stop hearing Laurel!  What did you hear?

When the warm weather hits, beer gardens open all over the city. Such a fun way to spend some time outside, right? I had plans to go on Saturday, but it looks like Mother Nature may throw a wrench in our plans and make it cold and rainy. Boston is such a fun city in the Spring and Summer, not so much if the weather is crumby. 

Any suggestions from other Bostonians? 

I have always loved an all white look, but I have never quite been able to pull it off and not for lack of trying. There is something so clean and fresh with an all white look and with spring here, I thought I would attempt it once again. 

How do you feel about an all white look?

Have a wonderful weekend!!

xx, Elise

Happy Tuesday! 

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and to all of the mama bears, I hope you had a fantastic Mother's Day.   

I got to celebrate Mother's Day with my extraordinary mother and another extraordinary mom, my sister.  Along with my niece, we went to a paint bar, it was our first time. My mom went in expecting to come out with a Picasso with hopes of hanging her masterpiece on the wall of her newly renovated kitchen.... LOL!!  Although we all had a blast, I am not sure we are ready to put our works of art on display anytime soon. 

This is my third jumpsuit post in a row! What can I say, this girl loves a jumpsuit! 

This floral target number is light weight and flowy and just perfect for Spring weather.

How was your weekend? 

xx, Elise

I hope you are all having a wonderful week so far. 

I have been feeling a little bit bummed recently regarding a collaboration. 

I have been wanting to try 305 Fitness desperately. Theses classes in Cardio, FLX, and PWR were developed these classes with dance, physical therapy techniques, yoga, and biomechanics in mind all set to the beats of a live DJ. How fun does that sound? 

I was so pleased when I got the opportunity to work with them, however I have not been able to take part in the class because of my injury. With a dance performance coming up in a few weeks, I could not risk further injury.  It gives me anxiety when I start something and don't finish it, or I have a job to do that I am unable to execute. Fortunately the very kind people at 305 were understanding of my dilema. 

305 Fitness, although named after an area code in Miami offer classes in 

NYC, LA, DC and Boston. If there is a location near you, please check out a class!    

I have a busy but fun weekend planned. 

Saturday we will be celebrating my nephew Will's first communion, and Sunday My sister, niece, mom and I are headed into the city to go to a paint bar and out to dinner to celebrate Mother's Day.

How will you spend Mother's Day?

It seems my love affair with blush has not subsided. What is better than a blush, tiered jumpsuit??

Happy Tuesday!

I always say that I love yellow, but I don't own much of it, and it is not my color.  However, when I was trying to think of a title to this post, all my yellow references had been taken up by other yellow posts... apparently I own a lot more yellow than I thought.

The weather was beautiful here! 

We went to a cinco de mayo get together, watched the Derby and enjoyed being outside.

How have you been taking advantage of the warmer weather?

Happy Thursday! 

Can you believe it's May? We made it! 

Before I left for FL we had not seen temps out of the 40s, everything was greay and not a single flower had popped up.  We returned to mid 60s and now BAM, almost 90 and everything is colorful and blooming. Per usual, Spring had it's fifteen minutes and we have moved right on to Summer temps, and I could not be happier! 

Only two days until Cinco de Mayo!
