Vermont Road Trip {recap}

It was hard to leave this little guy, 
he sat in Daddy's suitcase to try to sneak on our trip, 
adorable!

Even though we missed them, we had to much fun on our road trip to Vermont this weekend!



Only about 5 hours to escape to the mountains!

On the way up we stopped by my grandparents to say Hello!

I am eyeglass twins with my Nonno! 

 & had some of Nonna's famous yellow bread!

As Jersey people, we had some problems pumping gas...

& I eventually convinced the fiancé to take my outfit picture on the side of the road!



SO WINDY! 
What I Wore: glasses- Warby Parker Midnight Blue Sinclairs, top- H&M {from recent Fashion Conscious shopping trip}, necklace- Etsy, pants- Old Navy, boots- thrifted. ring & polish- Urban Outfitters, bracelets- Kate Spade, Ell and Emm, Rachel Roy, Bid Girl  




These booties from my recent thrift trip were my savior for our walks in the mud.
Love the color blocked-ness

Such a scenic trip


Tomorrow will be my around town / shopping finds!

Kinda wishing I was still in the mountains relaxing...

pasquetta

In Italian Pasquetta means "little Easter" 
where you get together with your friends to have a picnic and celebrate together. 
I will be celebrating mine with my fiancé and puppies!

We got back from Vermont yesterday and had such a wonderful time {but missed the puppies!}
Over the next few days I will be doing a trip recap!

But today we celebrate with bunny flats!
These Le bunny bleu flats came just in time!
I wore them all weekend for Easter!

 What I Wore: glasses- Steve Madden, necklace- Spike The Punch, button up- vintage via Tea and Tulips, pants- GAP, flats- Le bunny bleu



& I am loving my hologram nail polish from Urban Outfitters!
{so much so that I did end up getting the pink too...}
Such a fun color, not too flashy!

The fiancé made pancakes this morning to try out our new Vermont maple syrup,
I am so lucky, 
I practically live in a Bed & Breakfast!
