Striped one-piece swimsuit at the beach

I would never leave home without… my cellphone. I stay fit by… eating healthy, running, and strength training. In my spare time I… like to explore new places (hello, NYC!), shop, cook, listen to live music, spend time with my boyfriend and friends, and visit my parents’ beach house at the Connecticut shore. The first thing I do in the morning is… drink a Clean energy drink and check my emails. My style inspirations are… Zoe Kravitz, Ashlee Simpson, Serena Vanderwoodsen, Vanessa Hudgens, and Kate Moss. My favorite labels, designers, and shops are… Revolve, Rag & Bone, Gucci, UO, Superdown, One Teaspoon, Lovers + Friends,Read More →
