Ever since second grade when I first saw Gene Kelly and Donald O’Connor tap dance to Moses Supposes in Singin’ in the Rain, I’ve been a sucker for this impressive art form. Based on this, you can only imagine my delight when, while reading in Washington Square Park over the weekend, a couple of exceptionally talented kids set up at the bench closest to me and decided to show off their skills. You have to watch the video all the way through to see just how good they are. It’s moments like these that make me love New York even more!
In her (summer) shoes
Come summer, I dedicate a special slush fund to biweekly manicures and pedicures. After all, fashion this time of year is all about how you choose to decorate your hands and feet! Case in point: the snaps taken from Instagram above. Not only do I want her shoes, I want a list of the nail polish shades she perfectly pairs with each look.
Do you have a staple summer shoe? What about a signature polish?
Remember Kate Middleton’s summer shoe?

Retro day at the beach
Now that summer has officially arrived, I can’t stop thinking about the beach! The images above capture the joy, the fun, and the carefree relaxation of being in the sun and sand.
This weekend — en route to wedding #2 — I’ll be driving through Mystic, Connecticut. I’m going to do everything I can to find a spare hour or two to stop and dip my toes in the ocean surf.
Do you have any beach vacations planned this summer? Even a day trip counts!

TV Page: New Girl
Is anyone else watching New Girl? I know, I know — the show’s finale was many weeks ago, but thanks to Hulu Plus, I’m just diving into the first season now. The first couple of episodes had a wobbly start, but I’m now totally addicted. Zooey Deschanel and her supporting cast, including, Jake Johnson, Max Greenfield and Lamorne Morris, are charming, and fun. Right now, it’s actually one of the few shows that makes me laugh out loud.
What are your thoughts on the show? Are you planning to tune in for season two?
