Easter Take 2!

nullnullnull

Good morning, sweets! And happy Friday! So happy the weekend is finally here. As you can tell from all my moaning and groaning this week, I'm particularly ready for it.

Seeing my family this weekend to celebrate Greek Easter. Lots of things to look forward to. Summer-like weather, it's going to be 80 on Sunday!, my Yia Yia & mother's delicious cooking and my father's amazing wine. He went deep into the wine cellar and already has some special bottles selected.

And I already have my summer dress picked out because I'm planning on spending a lot of time outside basking in the glorious weather.

So what do you all have planned? Whatever it is, I hope it's a fabulous one!

The Shopbop contest is now closed.

Be sure to check back in on Monday for the winner announcement.

    It's been raining and hailing but the sun just came out and the birds are literally singing right now. Hopefully I'll get in some golf and maybe a picnic this weekend.

    This weather has got to be one for the record books. So perfect! And the timing was helpful as we just finished painting the outside of the house.

    This weekend I'm heading your way...going to see Once and stop by the Campbell Apartment. Gotta love NYC!

    Hope you have a wonderful time visiting with your family!
