What is cuter than having a similar (but not matchy-matchy) outfit as your little one? Giving one to your partner as a gift! Read More…
Christmas Stockings
I have been searching for the perfect Christmas stockings for the past two years. TWO YEARS! Read More…
Energy Bites
I crave sweets during the day and instead of reaching for chocolate, I’m trying (mostly…) to make a healthier choice that will actually fuel my body. Read More…
Chia Seed Pudding
Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, but I get into ruts and end up eating the same thing day after day; usually, whatever is easiest or I happen to be making for my daughter.
A Fantasy Capri Wedding
Last weekend, fashion darling Giovanna Battaglia wed Swedish property developer Oscar Engelbert in what was probably the biggest wedding extravaganza the island of Capri has ever seen. Read More…
Lemon Vanilla Cashew Cream
I have been on the hunt for new breakfast and snack ideas and finally struck gold with this one, which I tried yesterday. Read More…
Spring Cleanse
Mansur Gavriel’s Fall 16 presentation was beyond gorgeous. Of course the accessory “it-brand” knocked it out of the park with their new bag silhouettes and shoes, but what really won me over were the colors used throughout the staging of the presentation. Read More…
Toddler & Baby Meals, Part 2
https://www.bloglovin.com/blogs/a-beautiful-hunt-14686965
While I am a carbivore, my daughter is a total carnivore. Luckily, there are some meals that we can agree upon.
My goal is always to get T to eat what we are eating. I’d rather make one great meal than two time-pressed dinners. And I love recipes that make multiple meals, are easy to portion and are portable. These meatballs fit all of those prerequisites. Read More…

Christmas Chic
Here are some of my favorite decorating ideas for the Christmas season. I am especially loving greens mixed with paperwhite narcissus – it gives a lightness and modern feel to the traditional greens. Incorporating some delft blue looks even more amazing. And nothing feels more fresh than mixing in some citrus to wreaths, topiaries, and garlands. Oranges, lemon, and limes, oh my!
Flower School
I love flowers (who doesn’t?). But, I have never been great at transitioning flower bunches into an actual arrangements. A few weeks ago, I took a flower class taught by Michael and Darroch from Putnum & Putnum. They did an incredible job putting on the event, which was hosted at The Kitchen Table, a beautiful loft space tucked away in Little Italy. With a little champagne, delicious finger foods, and gorgeous flowers to play with, it was an afternoon well-spent. Read More…
Dodie Thayer for Tory Burch
Over the past few years, my love for all things “entertaining” has grown. As I’ve gotten older, I find myself loving tableware, linens, flower arrangements more and more (the 20 year old me is cringing). And, of course, I also love food and cooking. I was very fortunate to grow up with a mother who was – and continues to be – a wonderful hostess. The thoughtfulness and care she puts into planning parties, big and small, is a quality I so admire and hope to emulate. It couldn’t be more true that every detail counts when entertaining.

the class
I finally got to “the class” after weeks of trying to fit it into my (and my husband’s… and baby’s…) schedule. I had seen articles in all of the fashion mags about this “class”, as it is simply known, and then began to follow Taryn Toomey, the class creator, on Instagram. As a workout devotee, I am always interested in the latest and greatest fitness trends and with Naomi Watt’s and Taryn’s figures as billboards for the class, I knew I had to try this workout for myself.
