Fall may officially start tomorrow, but I’m still stuck in a summer state of mind. Is it just me, or does this year seem to be flying by?! I’ll be reluctantly making my fall wardrobe switch over the next couple of weeks, but it’s still so lovely to sit back and reminisce about my trip to Cape Cod earlier this month.
After our EPIC Alaska vacation, I thought we were done traveling for a while. But that was only until I found an amazing deal on JetBlue – just $200 roundtrip for 2 people to fly out of JFK into Cape Cod! We had an amazing time relaxing, chowing down on seafood, and enjoying the Cape in the slightly off-season. The weather was gorgeous, and not nearly as crowded as it is during the height of summer. We stayed at the SeaCoast Inn in Hyannis which was just a 5-minute walk from the ferry port and served as the perfect launching point for day trips to Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard.
On this particular day, we rented a car and drove up to Provincetown to explore the protected lands of the Cape Cod National Seashore on one of Art’s Dune Tours. We had a fantastic time playing in the sand, learning about the local artist shack residency program, and sampling a few wild berries along the way! I somehow allowed Eric talk me into climbing the 252-foot tower at Pilgrim Monument, but the incredible views up top more than made up for the trek. Afterwards, we settled in for a cozy romantic dinner at The Red Inn before heading back to Hyannis.
More details about the rest of our trip coming up soon!

New York Fashion Week is one of my favorite events that I look forward to each fall – not so much for the fashion shows (although those are great too!), but for the street style. People-watching in the city is already one of my favorite pastimes, so seeing everyone strut their stuff for Fashion Week just takes it up a notch and makes it that much more fun. To get in on this year’s action, I left the office early one day last week and headed over to Moynihan Station with my camera in tow.
For me, Fashion Week is all about having fun and trying out new looks. With that in mind, I went for a groovy retro-inspired print with modern accessories (including these awesome studded pumps from the lovely folks at DSW). Other folks must’ve gotten the memo as well, because right off the bat I noticed a very heavy 70s style influence. Check out those bell bottoms!
I enjoyed rocking various straw hats all summer long, so I was excited to see that exaggerated fedoras were also having a moment. Also, doesn’t it seem like stylish folks rarely travel alone at Fashion Week?! Talk about #SquadGoals!
As for my favorite outfits, there’s nothing I love more than bold colors and prints paired with killer heels. Below are three fashionistas who nailed the look perfectly.
All in all, I had a blast soaking in the atmosphere and chatting with my fellow photogs about the looks we loved. Speaking of which… whose style do you like the most, and what trends are you looking forward to this season? Sound off in the comments below!
