Shake the Tree Yumi Kim Event

When your friend co-hosts an event, you go!

Georgina of A Noted Life is someone I consider to be one of my blogger besties (whether she agrees with me on that, or not). She and Tiffany of Boston Foodies hosted a Yumi Kim shopping event at Shake the Tree in Boston’s North End. And, when I say that bloggers sure know how to put on a fun event, I mean it with every ounce that’s in me.

The food was phenomenal. And local. There was everything from Neptune Oyster Bar oysters, to the best cannoli in North End from Bacco (of which I had far too many).

To that, add a handful of my favorite Boston bloggers, flavorful sips, and the prettiest floral dress EVER.

I’m wearing the Jayne Silk Dress, and I could just kick myself for not buying it that night! It was so comfortable and the color flattered me far better than I imagined it would. Regan of Venture Travelist helped me decide which one to try on. She really knows her stuff. Even though I wasn’t at my best, I felt absolutely gorgeous.

Lucky for me, Yumi Kim is also available on Rent the Runway. Although, I will probably end up back at Shake the Tree very soon!

Whenever I talk about fitness, I pretty much blab on about running and my on-again, off-again relationship with it. I typically run when I’m stressed. To avoid stress, I turn to yoga.

Even though yoga is a constant in my life, I don’t share about yoga as much because I don’t think I’m very good at it. And I’m probably not. But I enjoy practicing and find it comforting.

Hopefully, my very basic yoga skills are enough to encourage others (maybe even you?) to give yoga a try.

Since I learned that Boston offers a decent number of free yoga classes and I plan to go to as many as I possibly can.

Namaste, y’all!

Lookout Rooftop & Bar at The Envoy Hotel

In case you missed my announcement on Instagram, Lookout Rooftop and Bar at Lookout Rooftop & Bar at The Envoy Hotel is now officially open for the season!

Myself, and some other local bloggers were invited to check it out a little early. The view is breathtaking and the drinks delicious! If you’re close enough and looking for something to do the weekend, there’s really no better way to kick off the season, than with sips at Boston’s #1 rooftop hotspot.

You don’t have to wait for the weekend to enjoy the view, South Hollow Spirit’s new gin launch party is happening there tonight! Tickets are available for tonight’s event here.

Barreless Barre at Crane & Lion

Joining the Boston Bloggers Facebook group has led to some pretty great opportunities for me. One such opportunity was getting to attend a Barreless Barre class at Crane & Lion.

Hosted by Jenna of Boston Chic Party and Jessica Diaz, the class itself really worked your core. I didn’t realize just how much until the next day. My abs were sore, but in a good way.

I’ve taken a Barre class before, but didn’t think you could get such a great workout without even using a barre!

After class there was wine, noms and a Crane & Lion sample sale. Everything was up to 60% off!

I spotted the cutest ever jacket, and I just may have to go back for it. Sale or no sale.

I ended up not actually buying anything, which was sad because their clothes are athleisure, but casual in a way that I could see myself wearing them even on days where the gym is the furthest thing from my mind.

Thankfully, Crane & Lion sent us home with one of their tanks. I’ve already worn mine once, and it was to workout in! Can you believe it?
