cold spring apothecary

during our visit to cold spring, our favorite discovery was the cold spring apothecary, a shop full of 
natural candles, soaps, skin care products, and teas.
the shop's aesthetic was perfect - clean, rustic, and warm.
we couldn't resist and went home with the aged leather candle and happy tea.



















inspired. heading up the hudson for the weekend.






february fourteenth.

we don't really go in for commercial valentines' day gifts or celebrations.
but we'd be crazy to pass up a good bottle of wine and some fun between the sheets.
happy valentines' day.





a 27th birthday

pearls turned 27 this january. she requested an evening out on the town with her friends. they surprised her with high tea at the plaza hotel and drinks at the campbell apartment, a swanky lounge hidden inside grand central station. a lovely time was had by all. a huge thanks to andi, dorthy, tiffany, and everyone else that helped celebrate!
