Last weekend, while my mama was in town, we had the opportunity to visit The SoNo Collection, a gorgeous shopping mall right in the center of South Norwalk, about 40 minutes from Westchester County. It features southern Connecticut’s only Nordstrom and Connecticut’s only Bloomingdale’s, as well as many other stores from Zara, Sephora, and H&M to […]

Preface: If you know me, you know I love highlighting local businesses. Especially in these tough times, as we all brace ourselves for what our uncertain future holds, I want to do everything I can to support my community. Businesses need our help, even if it’s just to spread the word about their services + […]

It’s really true what they say about your kids. Despite having the same DNA, they will be very, very different from one another. Liam wasn’t terribly difficult as a baby (despite being the worst sleeper), and as a toddler, he was reasonable and quite easy to distract (that was always my go-to strategy – “Oh, […]

Hii! I posted a poll about this on Instagram today, and you guys said you wanted to hear more about the subject… so here we go! Like I mentioned in my IG stories, my first language is French. Even before having kids, it was always my plan to speak French to our boys. Most of […]

We are navigating some very different waters, here. Our kiddos are zooming with their classmates, navigating chrome books, and hybrid / remote schedules. They are seeing their friends, but a lot less. Through plexiglass. Screens. When we made the decision to go with the hybrid school option (two days at school, three days remote), I […]

Hi! I wanted to share a few photos from Liam’s quarantine birthday with you guys. These photos are special to us because Liam’s birthday felt like a little ray of light in these uncertain times we are going through. We opted for a little family celebration, car parade (thanks friends!), and some surprises sprinkled throughout […]

My most asked question of all time is: “Why on earth would you move to New York from the Caribbean?” Obviously, it was for my studies… not the climate. I never expected to stay in the Northeast, but I met my husband sophomore year and the rest is history. I always tell him that the […]

Here’s the scoop: Joe and I are done having kids. We really are. There is something that feels so complete about our family as it is and neither one of us can imagine having more babies. These memories from the past five years will forever be some of our most tender, special ones, but we […]

When it comes to shopping for Christmas gifts, I’m such a planner. (Okay, I’m a planner basically 99.9% of the time, but when it comes to gifts I’m even more extra…) I usually start making lists in early fall and start actual shopping around mid October. I try to have everything together by the end […]

Hi friends! I’ve had the most eventful weekend and can’t wait to share all the fun things I’ve been up to… but in the meantime, I decided that I’m going to start sharing some of my favorite purchases for the holidays as I discover them. I’m getting started early this year 🙂 As many of […]

I had the pleasure of meeting the team at The Beauty Parlor in Dobbs Ferry last week and was so blown away. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out. Big time. First things first, their salon has the most epic location in all of Westchester. It sits at the edge of the Hudson River, […]
