Stay hungry, be smart
Everyone loves Bali. I don’t think I’ve ever met a soul who didn’t like Bali. What’s not to love? The gorgeous colors of the rice fields? The beautiful hotels, awe-inspiring temples and delicious food? Just to name a few… We stayed in Ubud during my time with the #TripOfWonders back […]
Before I dive in here, let me just say that there will be an entire blog post dedicated to Bali. Sorry, but I’m not going to sit here and pretend that I didn’t love it at the risk of sounding “basic” or “mainstream”. I’ll take all the damn basic and […]
I think I’ve FINALLY kicked the jet lag. Being 12 hours ahead of NYC time was rough, and I know this is the city that never sleeps, but I sure as hell do. That said, if I had to do it all over again, I 100% would. It’s not every […]
GUYS. I finally visited Chicago! This has been on my list for ages, and it took me 34 whole years to get there. Crazy, I know. The attraction of Chicago (for me) was actually the same reason I stayed away from it for a while. Hear me out. As a […]
As the week slowly gets away from me, I finally got around to compiling the spots from the last leg of the trip. And I’m just as sad writing about it as I was when I had to actually leave. That said, the majority of this part of the trip […]
Take me back. That’s all I really want to say about this. It’s actually very interesting – people have told me my entire life that I would “hate LA” because I’m “such a New Yorker”. Yet…75% of the people I met there were FROM New York, and a lot of […]
The last two days in Miami were the best. And the longest. I went to a club (Mynt Lounge) on Saturday night (morning?) at 12:45 am. I haven’t STARTED my night at 12:45 am since I was seventeen. I also used to wait in lines and not wear jackets in […]
I feel like this story is best told through photos and videos, but I like to write so here goes. I’ve been attending the South Beach Wine & Food Festival every year for the past 4 years, and it’s honestly one of my favorite weeks of the year. The weather […]

If you’re blue and you don’t know where to go to why don’t you go where fashion sits…puttin on the Ritz. That song was originally written in 1927 in honor of The Ritz hotel in London, but I do think it’s kind of funny that the Ritz-Carlton in Pentagon City […]
