Year after year I continue to gravitate towards gingham as a staple pattern in my spring/summer wardrobe. Gingham remains classic no matter the style of the clothing whether it be a mini dress or an ankle length dress, a cropped top or a long sleeved blouse, cigarette pants or a tennis skort. It’s one of the few patterns that can be incorporated into a trend of the moment and make it timeless.
Location: Castle Combe // England
Castle Combe was on our England bucket list. It’s a small village located in Wiltshire. Kiel, Harry, and I stopped there on the way to Dorset — the village was every bit as charming as I imagined it to be. Other than one hotel and a couple of restaurants there is not a whole lot to do. It’s perfect for a leisurely stroll to take in the sights.
Sharing images from our travels in London. Kiel and I popped into the city to visit a couple of friends who were in town. We booked a room at the Chesterfield Mayfair hotel in Mayfair for our stay. A few years back we stayed there and loved that the location was within perfect walking distance to many of the must see sights including Buckingham Palace, Big Ben (now under construction), the London eye, shopping on Bond street, and Hyde Park. It felt wonderful to walk everywhere. Spring was definitely in the air with the arrival of daffodils and cherry blossoms.

There's no feeling like leaf peeping in a big, cozy sweater on a brisk New England Fall day. Load up the family wagon, stop for some apple cider donuts, and have yourself an Autumn adventure to remember.
