I took a year off social media (live tweeting RuPaul’s Drag Race excluded) to focus on making it through 2020 in one piece. With the changes in DC and immunizations picking up pace, it feels like a nice time to venture back into the real world. Here is the photo I was about to post this time last year before the world began changing. Hoping to be back in #PalmBeach again soon - starting to feel the travel bug biting. #florida #travelphotography #visittflorida #thebreakers #surfing #ginandtonic #sunandsand (at The Breakers Palm Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKVCBXqsJR4/?igshid=14v1qqlw6jczw

I was trying to serve Mr. Darcy in Pride & Prejudice (1995 BBC version, duh!) but ended up giving you Diane Keaton in As Good As It Gets, and I’m 100% okay with that. (at Palm Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B74jFwmAk5c/?igshid=1gk1aif9sl7ff

Palm Beach gave me #SouthernCharm at its best today. The shutters, wrought iron lace work, and gorgeous arched hedge are the perfect architectural triple threat.👌👌👌 (at Palm Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7y1KY7gGHB/?igshid=1dmlhywm6nmpz

Florida sunsets make everything better, but when a house is as perfect as this one—with striped cabana awnings and coconut trees in the breeze—it’s next level. I hope whoever lives here was out on the patio tonight enjoying the colors with a rum cocktail, garnished with a tiny umbrella!🍹🥳 (at Palm Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B61mX4XA9CB/?igshid=m0tsgsmi4qvf

A little story about the famous coconut trees of Palm Beach, Florida—Here before any of the hotels, restaurants or estates, the coconuts washed ashore during a shipwreck in 1878. A trade ship called the Providencia was traveling from Havana to Cádiz, Spain with a cargo of coconuts harvested on the Caribbean island nation of Trinidad & Tobago, and after sinking just off the coast, thousands of coconuts appeared on the beach and were soon planted everywhere in an attempt to create a new industry in what was a swampy little settlement. I’m glad they did such a great job, because after a Christmas tree, a palm in the wind is my favorite slice of nature to wake up to. . . . . #palmbeach #exploreflorida #floridalife #wintervacation #beautifulbeaches #beachvibes #surfsup #verytandc #coconutgrove #palmtrees #travelblogger (at Palm Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6qwsi6AmRa/?igshid=1r0ce3af64cj3

Sending you all happy Christmas vibes from sunny Florida where no matter how hot it gets (it’s 80° in Palm Beach today) they still turnt it out like a winter wonderland. My boyfriend @davidscoroposki’s family always have a show stopping tree and this year’s category was Wizard of Oz Extravaganza! Swipe though for the coolest ornaments I’ve ever seen! No matter what holiday you’re celebrating this season - enjoy yourself and sending love and good health to you and your family! #goodjudy . . . #happychristmas #judygarland #christmastreedecorating #christmastreesofinstagram #palmbeach #festiveseason #decorinspo #wizzardofoz #holidayseason #christmasinflorida #designinspo (at Palm Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6gPqyNA2D1/?igshid=1wxtiypjhws9o

Seeing as we haven’t been able to drive the though the Washington Square Arch since the 50s, I’m glad the peeps of Greenwich Village have put the monument to good use for the holidays! The Christmas tree in the square is awesome this year and although the park will never be the same as it was in the 70s and 80s (maybe for the better?) it’s looking great. I’ve included some shots I found from the early 80s in the swipe—back when the arch was covered in graffiti and Ramones lyrics. 🙃 #christmasinnewyork 🎄 . . . . #greenwhichvillage #washingtonsquarepark #christmastrees #holidayspirit #downtownnyc #americanhistory #ilovenewyork #christmasdecor #theramones (at Washington Square Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6RkGGwgkVy/?igshid=11lnfoazojt6b

There is a little row of Italianate townhouses on East 77th street that may be my favorite in all of New York City. They’re gorgeous year round but during the holidays they’re magical. I’ve included some more photos of the decorations if you swipe across — each is more perfect than the next with just the right amount of Manhattan swagger. . . . . #newyorker #christmasinnewyork #manhattan #nycarchitecture #architecturelovers #townhouse #christmasdecor #christmasdecor #holidayhouse #newyorkstyle #ilovenewyork #brownstone #prettycities #sidewalkerdaily #thisoldhouse (at 77th Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6J1q3-goF6/?igshid=1dduyvsttzqfq

A view of the Christmas lights at the McGraw Hill building on 6th Avenue at the centre of #SkyscraperAlley in Midtown New York. This building has been in a ton of movies—most notably Network & The Devil Wears Prada—but whenever I pass it, I think of the insane 1999 elevator “incident” in which a Business Week employee was trapped in an elevator for 41 hours before anyone noticed🙃. Whilst that is pretty much my # 2 nightmare (after being trapped in a car underwater?!), it made for an interesting feature in the @newyorkermag, which I’ve linked in my bio incase anyone is curious. . . . #skyscrapers #newyorker #thedevilwearsprada #internationalstyle #cityview #nycskyline #manhattan #sidewalk #architecturephotography #architecturelovers (at 6th Avenue Manhattan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B530GBZAr_-/?igshid=19ifatmseqrlq

Nailed it

Central Park in late fall, when all the tourists have left, is when it’s most breathtaking. There are places further north, away from the avenues, where you can be completely alone, without a single person in sight. Solitude is such a luxury in the city. This morning I came across a busker playing Frank Sinatra’s “My Way” under the Glade Arch. He was incredible—and kind to let me take his picture! It was so beautiful to have the park and his music all to myself. #ILoveNewYork . . . . . #centralpark #visitnyc #ny1pic #mynewyork #beautifulcity #sidewalkerdaily #landscapearchitecture #manhattan #verytandc #explorenyc (at Glade Arch - Central Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5yCENrgl6m/?igshid=17m0fi0jpebfj

It should be illegal to wear loafers without tassels in December, no? The good people at @ghbass would likely agree with me. #ShakeYourTassels #WeejunsByMe 🇺🇸🎄 . . . . #mensshoes #mensstyleguide #mensstreetstyle #ghbass #ootdmen #mensfashionblogger #mensfashion #mensaccessories #ivystyle (at Central Park West & 72nd) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5thKubgD30/?igshid=6zbaguw2h1tm

Huge props to @poloralphlauren for building an actual Igloo inside Bloomingdales NYC ☃️ No lie that their ice lounge is the coolest place I’ve been all year — at 18 °Fahrenheit/ -8 °C! 🥶❄️❄️❄️ . . . . #ralphlauren #poloralphlauren #bloomingdales @bloomingdales #igloo #mensstreetstyle #ootdmens #mensfashion #holidayshopping #pufferjacket #menswinterfashion #mensstyleguide (at Bloomingdale's NY 59th St) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5oXW_tgieM/?igshid=h6qqz4fgnjid

The elevated subway lines in Brooklyn and Queens are some of the realest #NewYorkCity looking places I can think of. They belong to the kind of NYC you imagine in your mind before arriving, but in reality, they’re just as cinematic and special. About 10 years ago I looked at an apartment facing directly onto the JMZ line in South Williamsburg (pictured here) and I think the rent was something like $950 a month. I’m sure it would be twice as much now but it was a bargain at the time because of the noise... A friend talked me out of it, but I think it could have been fun! . . . . . #williamsburgbrooklyn #williamsburgbridge #nycsubway #beautifulbrooklyn #visitnyc #sidewalkerdaily #brookyn #nycskyline #prettycities #urbanexplorer (at South Williamsburg) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lyu_Eg5Or/?igshid=u1vzzxm3j0bx

I wish that fall would go on forever, just so I have an excuse to live in this @brooksbrothers fisherman sweater day-in & day-out. 🎣 . . . . . . #fishermansweater #mensfashiontips #mensstreetstyle #brooksbrothers #ivystyle #preppystyle #mensfashionblogger #brooksbros #nycstyle #menshopping #ootdmen (at Madison Avenue) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5f2uh-gV6O/?igshid=ew56t0pw8lps
