This was my first holiday season spent in New York and it has been nothing short of magical. From every last drop of the city being decorated to the visitors and experiences with family and friends I’ve had the past few weeks, I feel so full of happiness and am left feeling very, very blessed. Tonight I head home to spend the next couple of weeks at home with my family, see my cousin get married and enjoy a lot of R&R while catching up with old friends.

Here are a few snapshots from the past few weeks- looking back on them I feel like one very lucky gal!

Jo Malone candle burning before a glass of wine was poured with a friend // Restaurants embracing the season //

Holiday cards received in the mail // at a holiday soiree with one of my favorite ladies, Alicia

An early Christmas present from Brahmin // Fifth Avenue’s towering snowflake, a personal favorite decoration // Out with girlfriends taking photos with L.O.V.E. // The holiday windows at Bergdorf’s from a tour with Taylor

An evening with the New York Pops at Carnegie Hall this past weekend // Brunching with my brother this past weekend
