If The Summer I Turned Pretty has pulled you in the way it has me, I wrote something for us millennials. Read here

We had the most incredible summer in Aspen with the kids. These are a few of the highlights — full itinerary is linked in bio.

Breakfast at Hotel Jerome (the kids couldn’t get enough of the chocolate chip pancakes), coffee at Saint Ambrose, hiking the Maroon Bells, and picnics in Aspen’s parks. Playgrounds all around town kept the boys happy, and they spent a full day at Ajax Camp while we explored the boutiques. Evenings were for the Snowmass Rodeo, oysters at Clark’s Oyster Bar, drinks at Ajax Tavern, and lingering lunches at Casa Tua. Between the mountain views, dining, and activities, Aspen and Snowmass are the perfect summer trip.

A few pieces I lived in during our Boston trip, easy layers, my bucket hat, and walkable everything.

The Asticou Hotel, perched above Northeast Harbor, feels like the setting of a romantic novel.

The view feels untouched by time. Blush umbrellas. Striped chaises. Salt air. Stillness.

Every corner, every chair, every candlelit table, feels suspended in time. It truly took my breath away.

If you’re coming this way, stay here. It’s not just a hotel. It’s a place you’ll think about long after you’ve left.
