☀ First Day of Summer ☀

Yesterday was Summer’s official kick-off and London did not disappoint! Parks drizzled with sunbathers, pub terraces packed, sunnies and hats competing in size and funkiness (yes hats! it’s London people & the Royal Ascot mood is spilling onto the streets!) and fashionistas out and about in their flashiest colors and shortest outfits… For my first day, I kept it relatively under control and left it for my neon accessories to shout: “Welcome sunny time! it’s about time!”

mommies secret: buttoned tops are ideal for urban breastfeeding / easy access on-the-go!

of course soon that control will have to let go bit by bit as I inch my way closer to a beach… here’s a flashback of how I embraced the spirit in St. Tropez last sunny season…

Dear NYC,

I’ll miss you in all your flavors! Thank you for being such an ideal ground for my sport…

UES 2

My cosy neighborhood

providing dramatic backdrops and inspiration… from your UES sophistication to your village edge…

HOME… sniff sniff

3rd Ave… you’ve served me well but scraped my red soles!

CENTRAL PARK: HAVEN/ HEAVEN… of course made even more blissful by amazing friends…

5th Ave / the break before the BG splurge…

Speechlessly grateful but still kinda mad about that polar vortex!
