A Week in My Life: On Tour with LOFT in Boston
I’m a firm believer that taking care of yourself. Health as a practice is extremely important to me-- I'm more concerned with doing things that keep me strong and healthy than how I look or what the scale says. So it is time to move forward and get back into my routine of things.
For me, this means getting back into the gym, karaoke with friends, reorganizing my closet... basically, anything that is going to help bring order back into my life.
Travel Blog: My First Trip to Martha’s Vineyard
This summer I rented a house on Martha's Vineyard with my girlfriends. A lot of my friends went to really fancy schools in Boston, so they've been going to Martha's Vineyard since undergrad, but this was my first time.
I had zero expectations coming into the trip, I just knew I would be on a charming island with my friends. In the end the 7 days we spent on the island is my favorite thing I've done all summer.
Martha's Vineyard is nice because some areas feel like the woods and some areas feel like the beach. I really liked being able to tap into both of those vibes each day.
Before I jump into things to do, here are some quick things I learned.

3 Major Adulting Mistakes I Made This Year
As I stood on the corner of 34th street and 7th avenue, I was in a full blown panic. I was too weak to stand on my own, so I leaned against the grimy wall outside New York Penn Station and waited for an ambulance to find me in the middle of Manhattan.
Just a few hours earlier, I was happily dancing at a friends wedding.
A few days before that I was filming my first national segment for the Today Show during New York Fashion Week.
I had no idea that while I was laser focused on supporting my friends and pursuing my passions, my body was quietly falling apart.
Which brings me to the most frustrating adulting mistake I’ve made this year....
