🌸 Cape Cod June Hot Tip 🌸

It’s peak rose season RIGHT now!!
Drive down 6A, visit a garden or pay for a private home tour if offered.

I visited the private home of a fabulous award winning gardener who offered a tour of her gardens to raise money for , and what a treat for the senses it was!

Not only was our hostess a wealth of knowledge, but being in this beauty with a group of wonderful women (and one husband who got dragged as a chauffeur), made me realize how incredibly fortunate I am to live on Cape Cod.

Do you have any gorgeous gardens near where you live? Drop them in the comments if so!

P.S. Flip to the end to find out what happens when a dog enter the premises and meets me.

The tote that I have been waiting for someone to make!

You may have seen this style of tote, but not this size and not in these colors!

This beauty is from , and, I don’t know about you, but I think it’s screaming for a monogram snack in the middle!

Based out of Rhode Island, and you know I love small and local. My tote comes in four sizes- mini, regular, large and XL.

Osterville is looking so beautiful, and I got there just as most shops were closing.

I’ll do a roundup soon, but is stocked and absolutely beautiful, new location is so stunning I almost fainted when I walked in and there is a new candy store, , that will make adults and children filled with joy every time they visit (also by in former spot).

Dress: previous season
Shoes: from previous season

Sconset Sundays: is there anything better?

i wouldn’t actually know, because Im home on the Cape.

I don’t really shop in supermarkets unless necessary, because I love shopping small local markets!

is a decades favorite! Best blueberry muffins ever, and my late afternoon heart broke that they were gone. Alas, I’ll be back soon!

This dress was the perfect dress to bop around Sconset in, and although it just dropped, it’s selling out super quick. Linked by clicking the first picture, my first comment or comment. SCONSET and I’ll DM you.

Nantucket summer Fridays? This could be a thing…

Thanks to my friend , I got out to Sconset and Sankaty, where I had not been for years (there lighthouse, not Sconset)!

There was very little wind for once, and it was breathtakingly beautiful!

Outfit details:
UPF 50 shirt and pants: (gifted). They come in coral (my shirt), drift (my pants), sage and ink.
Matching sets are cool, but I saw this set in a shoot that they did with a navy swimsuit under it, so I tried to copy it with a swimsuit because beach to drinks is a reality in the summer, esp on Nantucket!
Shoes are
Bracelet is brand new by available at .fornow , where you can find all of creations!!

I go to Nantucket a lot, but you won’t see a Nantucket guide from me. I am not organized enough. I do different things every time I go and my timing is crap. I eat on the fly, often at places that aren’t fancy or don’t have a line. And a lot of the time, I go alone and visit stores or meet people who live or spend the summer there who aren’t influencers.

I’m okay with not being a major influencer.
I would not trade it for days like yesterday with people like Marie for anything.

Finishing a glorious week weather wise in a glorious new kaftan from 🌴

These kaftans and their other branded pieces are designed in New York but have a luxurious international feel.

I love that when you shop at , you also are able to shop a site with meticulously curated jewelry (I wear my necklace all of the time, who she carries), sunglasses (the green pair that I’m wearing are the most beautiful I’ve ever owned), bags, shoes and even sunscreen!

Most importantly, I’m supporting and sharing a Jewish owned business. And Sharon is just a wonderful and kind person!

Check out her site and support this amazing small, unique woman owned business!

A true welcome back with a true friend! 💙🦞

The hardest working optometrist on Cape Cod graciously stopped off after work and picked up two fatty lobster rolls (not pictured because they were devoured immediately) and fries for our summer on the Cape reunion!

We caught up for hours, drank champagne and watched an absolute banger of a sunset.

I am so grateful for my friend Diane, and I am so grateful to live here.

You could try to convince me that there is a better place to spend summers than the Cape or Islands, but I wouldn’t believe you!

A GASP dress that I’ve been waiting months for!

Long story short, when I ordered this dress, which I think is one of the most beautiful dresses that I have ever seen, from their first apparel collection, it was way too tight in the chest.

I had to wait a few months before I got the right size due to back order, and when I did, I waited until I was back on the Cape with the perfect weather and the perfect backdrop.

To my curvy girls, especially club chesty- size up at least one size, if not two. The arms are super generous, but the chest and waist are not stretchy are all!

Check out bags spring and adorable summer line, and let me know what your faves are. And don’t forget to choose your bag to go with your dress. Their bags are the absolute most fun!!💚💗

When they say, “There’s always the next ferry,” they mean it on the way home, not on the way there!

A quick trip over to Nantucket yesterday afternoon (and I do mean quick because I missed two ferries and didn’t get there until 3) to do some shopping to benefit with and some great Nantucket businesses.

I have been so excited to wear my new maxi dress and to visit their stunning new store .

My shopping partners for the afternoon were .designs , who I had the pleasure of finally meeting IRL after I don’t know how long on IG and , who I have known and loved for years through her pop ups at (we miss you, Karen!), (we 💗’ed seeing you, Elise) and .fornow , where you can get Marie’s trademarked pieces.

More pics of the front of me, but honestly, I didn’t take a lot.

This mini day trip was about shopping for a cause and seeing some friends, and I was so present with them (also - not enough time!), that we didn’t even do a photo!

I haven’t done Nantucket guides for a reason, but I will say that now is still a wonderful time to go because it’s not super crowded yet and the island is so beautiful.

I’ll be back soon! Will you?
