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.

Coffee Date

Soho, New York - It's been snowing here for days. Luckily, I have the perfect coat to keep me warm (see my above Canada Goose). Snow days usually mean one of two things: bed days, or coffee dates. On my more motivated days, I'll try to find a new coffee shop. Happy Bones is located in Soho on Broome street and is known for their flat white. I highly recommend making it a priority to stop by if you're ever nearby and in need of a caffeine or donuts fix. I'm a sucker for a good lemon glazed.

Ciao Vacanze Italia

When we booked our trip to the Italian Riviera, the first thing that came to mind was, "What will I wear?" I envisioned myself wearing a girlie, floral printed, lace dress, while gazing at the most beautiful views of the sea imaginable. I was excited to have made my dream a reality when I discovered this Zimmermann dress a few days before my trip. The photos above capture the exact look I was hoping for, thanks to my amazing photographer in the last photo on my right. :)

Manrola

Manrola was my favorite city in Cinque Terre. To me it was the most beautiful–and it had cliff jumping! The first photo above was the view from a cute restaurant called Nessun Dorma. No exaggeration, this little place has the best bruschetta on the planet. I know, it sounds cliché, but I'm a tough critic when it comes to anything in the food category–must be the Italian in me. In Italy, there is something about the freshness of the tomatoes and cheeses you can't find anywhere else that just gets me. If you ever visit Manrola, go there, get the Primavera bruschetta and tell me what you think.  

...up next is Portofino!

Monterosso, Cinque Terre

{#ootd: Valentino shoes, vintage Chanel purse, Ray Ban sunnies, & vintage Gucci dress}

While we were in Cinque Terre we stayed at the B&B Albergo Margherita, which was located in the most northern town, Monterosso. We felt right at home staying in the older part of town that had a traditional Italian family feel. These photos were taken on our way to Miky, which is a delightful seafood restaurant in the New Town. I highly recommend going there if you ever visit, the fish was some of the freshest we had ever ate.

Next up is Manrola!

I spent the last 10 days in Italy with my boyfriend. Let's just say, it was everything I could have dreamed of and more. Imagine the general idea of traveling to Italy with your love, then multiply it by 10. If you have the burning desire to go like we did, I'd be happy to provide our itinerary. Just ask me!

I will be doing a special post on every city we were in starting today. Next up, Cinque Terre! Stay tuned...

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.

1. Indian Well's Beach, Amagansett 

2. Rushmeyers, Montauk

3. Atlantic Beach, Amagansett
