Barefoot in Montauk

{ootd: Faithfull The Brand romper. Krewe Du Optic sunnies. QuickSilver hat.}

Montauk was my second home for the month of July. The weather is perfect there, although I can't say I have a tan to show for it. The commute is another story...

The train is an experience in itself. Hundreds of people running at a train once the track is called. Not to mention, it's the real life version of the Hunger Games fighting for a seat. If you're part of the majority of people escaping work early and showing up to the train late, you're left standing for 3 hours. Thankfully, friends and drinks will keep you preoccupied - just make sure you don't drink too much that you have to wait in the 30 minute bathroom line.

Now that I've thoroughly convinced you to spend your weekend out east, let me tell you about the greatness that is Montauk. It reminds me of a college town on the beach, except school is in session during the summer. Think of a small fraction of New York City's nightlife in a much smaller town like Santa Cruz. Everyone goes to the same bars, restaurants, and beaches so it's easy to keep unintended tabs on people. Surf Lodge was only a few blocks from our summer house, and seeing one of my favorite bands, St. Lucia, on their patio was one of the highlights of my summer! The Sloppy Tuna on the beach is the ideal sloppy day drinking spot, always playing a great assortment of tunes. And the list continues...I'll mention a few more in future posts to come.

The romper I'm wearing was my go-to outfit. It's a perfect day-to-night piece, and there were plenty of those...who needs a shower when you have beach hair?

Sharing a house for a month in a beautiful beach town with my best friends was truthfully the perfect way to celebrate summer. I wouldn't have wanted to spend my July any other way.

Sunnies obsessed

Soho - I started my day in my go-to Ray Bans and ended in my new IIlestevas. My newest obsession is their version of the Emmanuel. Logan and I must have tried on every pair in the store, which ended in a funny photograph of both of us wearing our new sunnies the staff takes and puts on the wall of all their customers. I can't wait to sport them at Coachella...I'm counting down the days...

Last minute outfit ideas will be on the blog next...

The burg

Ever since I started working at Trunk Club, my mom has started to send me a trunk full of clothes every few months. It's adorable to say the least. She's a very clever lady. I especially love when she sends me something of her own, like her beautiful white fur shawl collar cardigan. I love how it pairs perfectly with my tan Oxford jacket. 

Spring has sprung

Thank God it's finally spring! Luckily this winter pales in comparison to last winter with regard to the longevity of the cold weather. I couldn't be any happier that it's finally in the 40s-50s here in NYC! I broke out my boyfriend jeans and blazer to celebrate. I'm literally a walking JCrew ad with the exception of my Rag & Bone hat and Louis tote bag.

Dark & Light

The Midtown Mansion, New York - Our office at Trunk Club is in my opinion, one of the most beautiful buildings in NYC. It was built in the 1880's so it has a lot of character. Each room has a different feel, and we've done an amazing job making each room have a unique personality matching one of our many vendors.

Looking Back on Summer: The Instagram Edition

Summer in New York City and the Hamptons has been a wild ride for me to say the least. Unfortunately, my blog took a hit in the midst of seemingly perpetual chaos, but luckily Instagram came to the rescue. Above are a few photos that remind me of my favorite summer past times. Follow me on Instagram @LexiAiassa for consistent updates; however, I do promise updates on Fair-haired Flair more often.

In case you find yourself looking at these photos and want to visit those same places, here are the exact locations they were taken by yours truly:

1. Indian Well's Beach, Amagansett 

2. Rushmeyers, Montauk

3. Atlantic Beach, Amagansett

4. The Waverly Inn, New York City

5. The Met, New York City

6. Norwood Club, New York City

Central Park

{#ootd: Del Toro shoes. JCrew blazer & belt. Chanel purse. Rag & Bone hat. Dylan & George boyfriend jeans. Baublebar bracelet. Chinti and Parker sweater.}

Central Park is beautiful and I'm disappointed that I rarely make my way up there. I live and work downtown, so there isn't much of a reason for me to go up there. The winter cold makes me useless, but luckily we had ONE whole day of sunshine and temperatures in the 50's last weekend. As you can tell, the winter could not have made me any paler. Spring cannot come any quicker!

Last but not least... my recent photographer happens to be my boyfriend, Logan (below). He may get a little upset with me for posting this, but doesn't he look incredible? Babe alert.
