Martasand A Night At The Arlington County Fair Funnel cakes, cotton candy and sugary lemonade are just a few reasons why we look forward to the county fair each year. It’s a time where we can throw our inhibitions out the window and indulge in all of the gluttony surrounding us. Living in walking distance of the Arlington County Fair makes it almost a cardinal sin not to visit the local staple on an annual basis. We started off with a fresh squeezed lemonade from the vintage-esque stand, it gave us just the sugar rush we were looking for and we were off to test the rides and games. We battled it out at the water game but Michelle walked away the winner toting a scary looking furry stuffed animal (which made Sarah feel better about losing). We rode the […]

Girls Night Out with DogVacay.com

After our whirlwind trip to Miami, we were in desperate need of a night of pampering and relaxation. The Miami heat, high heels and countless hours waiting in line for the next show took a toll on our face, back, feet and overall well being. So you can only imagine how excited we were when Dogvacay.com contacted us to try out their pet sitting services. Their site is so easy to use and we have read nothing but positive reviews and feedback about the company and their sitters. We started by searching their site for a local host and were thrilled to have found a well reviewed sitter that lived near by to come watch our little guys while we headed to the spa. We both went for a casual and comfortable look and carried our new Signature Collection bags from Free Endearment. Sarah is wearing her go-to boyfriend jeans by Zara, white blouse and carrying the Dana bag. Michelle is wearing her favorite white J Band jeans, J Crew chambray button down, white lace tennies by Superga and is also carrying the Kristel Signature Collection clutch. Patiently waiting for a treat before our departure. Old Town Alexandria is rich in history, […]

The Perfect Tee

admin — Tue, 22 Apr 2014 12:38:52 +0000

We are sure we are not the only ones that are constantly on a mission to find the perfect tee. Let’s be honest, as soon as temps hit above 90’s and creep into the 100’s, a flattering tee and some cut off shorts are always the go to. We love the versatility of a basic tee by pairing it with distressed denim or dressing it up with a pencil skirt and blazer for work. The options are really endless! We wanted to get ahead of our own wardrobe and help our readers find the “perfect tee”, so we tried several different styles and designers and narrowed it down to our 4 favorites… Sarah is wearing the Loose Short Sleeve V-Neck by Enza Costa. We loved this tee because of its perfect v-neck depth, flattering fit and how thin and soft the fabric was. You will be seeing us rocking Enza Costa Tee’s all summer long! Michelle is wearing the Rolled Sleeve in Tide Print Tee by Sol Angeles. It truly gives off the perfect relaxed California style designed for a low maintenance approach to refined living. The rolled sleeves and neckline completed the styling and effortless look for us! Sarah is wearing […]
