Spotted in Spots

How was everyone's weekend?  It has been a few busy weeks in a row for me now, and I'm in need of a little break!  Think I'm headed to Maine for the weekend and the timing couldn't be more perfect... 

How do you feel about this dress?  I was hesitant because I felt it made me look too boxy and 'full' in the waistline.  But given the short length paired with the arched cut at the waist, I suppose it works.  I kept it very simple with my shoes and accessories.  You know I love an all black and white look!

Head of the Charles

I had the amazing opportunity to attend Boston's Head of the Charles this past Sunday. It was my first time attending a regatta, and what a blast.  We had exclusive access to Eliot Bridge Enclosure tent, including waterfront views of the race, lunch provided by Post 390 Restaurant and cocktails courtesy of Chloe Wine Collection and Sierra Nevada.  Delish!

Check Mate // with Femme Boutique Boston

Hello lovelies!  So I recently visited the Femme Boutique Boston's pop-up trunk show at the Nest in Amesbury, and this sweater immediately caught my eye.  It was love at first sight -- I mean who doesn't love a scalloped edge?!  The ladies behind Femme Boutique graciously gifted me the sweater -- I couldn't wait to style it.  I opted for keep it semi-summery with sandals and my favorite saddle bag.  But I know this sweater would pair fabulously layered with a chambray button down, some black jeans and tall boots.  More to come.... 

I highly recommend a visit to the Nest in Amesbury.  The town is so charming.  You can make of day of it exploring the historic cobblestone streets, discovering more quaint shopping, and stopping for a bite at one of the many great restaurants in town.

This weekend only, Femme Boutique Boston is offering my readers 20% off your online purchase, use code "Style-Blueprint" at checkout (online only, not available in store).  They have so many great pieces to choose from, including this ruffle sweater that I loveee and these super comfy trousers!  Happy Shopping!

Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Blogging

 

(This Endless Rose blouse sells out quickly - but its now available for pre-order!  See my other favorite Endless Rose top in this post.)

I met up with some fabulous blogger babes over the weekend at the beautiful Liberty Hotel.  We chatted over cocktails, sharing blogger/instagram tips and tricks of the trade.  It was nice to meet you ladies, finally putting a face to a name (or handle).  xo!

the Lookout Rooftop and Bar // The Envoy Hotel

Happy Monday -- or as Happy as it can be, it is Monday after all... 

But today I am pumped to announce the official season opening of the Lookout Rooftop and Bar at The Envoy Hotel in Boston.  Located in the Seaport, the rooftop boasts amazing views of both the Boston skyline and harbor.  I was invited to attend a pre-season launch party where I met and chit-chatted with some fabulous bloggers, sipped champagne and snapped these shots of Boston.  The views from the Lookout are unparalleled, and lucky for us, the rain held off just enough.

The rooftop officially opens today!  To celebrate, the Lookout Rooftop and Bar is partnering with South Hollow Spirits (an amazing distillery on Cape Cod) for their gin launch party.  The party kicks off tomorrow night, Tuesday, May 10th, at 5:00pm.  Tickets are available here, but be sure to act fast, you don't want to miss this party!  Did I mention the Lookout at Envoy is one of the hottest rooftop bars in the city??
