Happy Monday friends!! I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am for this week…WE’RE MOVING! I didn’t let packing stop me from enjoying the weekend – here are a few moments of fun captured!
I had my first acupuncture appointment on Friday after work and it was seriously amazing!! I decided to try it because I was feeling a little less than centered with a ton of stuff going on and I’m so happy I decided to do it before our move because it completely mellowed me out!! I could actually feel the stress leaving my body while I was laying there – might sound crazy, but I’m a believer and I was feeling the zen effects the entire weekend – even in the midst of packing nightmares!
A few of us went out to continue the celebration of a successful Bridal Pop Up from the weekend before at Bastille Kitchen. I’ve been to Bastille a few times before & it never disappoints and the charcuterie board is one of the best…although I could do with a little cheese on it 😉
After a morning barre class I wasn’t ready to head back home to pack – so I decided to explore and enjoy the amazing weather we were having!! Anyone that’s been to Boston knows what a walkable city it is – I lazily made my way down all the streets and stopped at the esplanade!
It’s hard not to fall in love with the charm of Boston!
It just wouldn’t be a weekend without something wedding related, right?! I was lucky enough to be part of my friend Meg’s bridal shower on Sunday and it honestly could not have been a more perfect day!
Meg’s sister and mom planned a truly beautiful afternoon at Fruitland’s Museum in Harvard, MA. There is so much land out there, I can only imagine how beautiful it is during the Fall…I made a mental note to check it out for brunch when the weather cools off!
Cheers to Monday friends!! P.S. the nail polish is Essie’s new Gel Couture line and even with all the packing has held up for 6 days without a chip – on normal people’s nails that’s the equivalent of 2 weeks!! I hope you have a wonderful start to the week! Link up below to share your weekends!

I love how you showcase the Boston charm every weekend. It is definitely easy to fall in love with!
Boston is so pretty, I can see why you took a stroll. Looks like a great weekend. Good Luck with the move!!

Yay for moving week! That shower looks lovely – and I love your dress! So glad to hear the gel nail polish lives up to the hype. I am definitely going to have to get some myself!
I've heard awesome things about acupuncture but never tried it myself–but if it relaxed you in the midst of a move (or right before it) then it HAD to work! Love the shower–the view there looks awesome!

I so badly am wanting to find an acupuncturist for so many issues in my body. I truly believe they work.
Good luck on the move. It'll be so nice to finally not live out of boxes, right?
Your city is gorgeous! Sounds like a fun weekend, how exciting for the move!!
I love the pictures of those doorways. Congrats again on the pop up and best of luck moving!

YAY for moving week finally being here! Can't wait to see your new place! And so glad to hear you loved acupuncture. I've been wanting to try it out. Boston looks absolutely gorgeous this time of year. And is that Essie polish the Rock the Runway color? If so we're twinning 🙂 <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
Oh give me that charcuterie board! Yum!! Boston does look like a gorgeous city to walk around! Speaking of gorgeous, that bridal shower! Looks like you girls had fun. Best of luck with the move this week!! I know you are excited to get out from under all the boxes and finally get settled!
Can Not Believe it's almost Fall! How did that happen!? Haha.. Love that you're in the middle of a move but still made time for fun on the weekend! Go you! Happy Monday!
Boston is definitely charming!!! I also love how walkable it is. I'm also pretty sure people thought that we are crazy because we walked SO much the last time we were there haha. Thanks for the mini review about the Essie gel polish. I have been wanting to try it!! I'm glad that you enjoyed some nice weather and a fun weekend too!! Have a great day today!! 🙂
So sad that this is the last weekend of summer basically! So sad! But omg how charming is Boston seriously so charming! I am in love! I love how it is so walkable that makes it even better! That shower also looked fab! I loved watching it from snap! Happy Monday!

What a pretty weekend – that charcuterie is so gorgeous! ~Hannah
I'm so impressed you were able to do so many great things during your weekend, all while packing to move! Boston looks incredibly beautiful right now – I can't wait for my trip there at the end of September!
Yay for some stress relief! Good luck with the move! I'm dying to try out the Essie Gel Couture after trying out the Sally Hansen Gel line, too.
The weather in Boston looks like it was absolutely incredible this weekend! And that's so fun that you got to be part of your friend's bridal shower!!

I'm so glad you were able to find some time to have fun and enjoy the great weather this weekend in between packing! I've never done acupuncture, now you have me wanting to give it a try! I've never really read any reviews or talked to anyone about it and what exactly it does. I'm all in favor to try something that will help mellow me out, haha! I believe I've only ever been to Boston once in my teens and I didn't do much exploring. Based on the photos you share, it really does seem quite charming and I really want to go someday; I can imagine how cute the streets must look come fall! Thanks so much for sharing, beautiful and I hope you have a great start to your week!

YAY for moving week!!
What a beautiful bridal shower! I'm intrigued by acupuncture now that you had such a good experience. I could stand to lose some stress these days, lol. 🙂
This weekend was perfection in the weather department, I'm so glad you didn't waste the whole time inside packing- yucky! That bridal shower looked gorgeous from your snapchat 🙂
Good luck with the move, cant wait to see the new place!

The weather this weekend was so amazing!! What a beautiful place to have a bridal shower. You looked so pretty as always, love that dress. Best of luck with the move, I know how stressful it can be. Try not to get too stressed, it cause wrinkles. haha If sure once you are in your new place it will be fantastic.
Oh my word what a fun weekend! The bridal shower looks ADORABLE. I'm glad to know your acupuncture appointment went so well and that you felt the benefits!
This weekend was perfection in the weather department, I'm so glad you didn't waste the whole time inside packing- yucky!

Looks like a beautiful wedding. I would love to go there in the Fall and see all the leaves changing. So pretty. That dress you wore to the bridal shower is beautiful!
Such a fun weekend! Those scenic pictures are making me want to travel!! And I agree, every charcuterie board needs some cheese. 🙂
Hurrah for acupuncture! I'm glad you had a great experience. My friend just gave me her acupuncturist's contact info on Saturday and I'm going to make an appointment. I've been looking for one for a while and finally got one someone recommends that is convenient to my office.
I have to ask the obvious, did acupuncture hurt? I'm crazy stressed and perhaps it's something I should look into?
So excited for your move! Good luck and I hope everything goes smoothly!
Good luck with your move this week!! That bridal shower looks so beautiful, and I love the choice of venue. Boston sure is looking pretty this time of year!

Yay for moving soon!! Looks like a great weekend. I could really go for a good charcuterie board in my life right now.
I still can't get over how stunning that shower was– it looked like a dream! I'm obsessed with your dress! Yay for finally moving- I'm glad you've been able to still make time for fun things and enjoying the nice weather without letting the stress of packing weigh you down.
I've been wanting to try acupuncture for an old tailbone injury but I'm terrified of it. Did it hurt at all?? I don't know anyone who's ever tried it, so I have no clue what it's all about!
Good luck this week! I know you'll be so excited to get all settled in and I can't wait to see your new place!
Can you believe its the end of August already! What a lovely shower too . . . love the honey jar

wow, can't believe that nail polish has lasted through packing, that is amazing! i love that boston is so walkable, i miss living in a city like that, louisville is not conducive to just walking around. it's also not as pretty as boston haha. acupuncture is the best! glad you had a good experience 🙂
Your city is beautiful! And what a perfect weekend. That bridal shower looked so nice!
Stunning photos as always! Acupuncture has always freaked me out; so glad to know someone who has tried it. Good luck with your move girl! 🙂

Yay for moving week! Hope it goes well! 🙂 That shower looks beautiful!
I love how pretty your posts always are! Full of pretty things to see, pretty (and tasty!) looking food! I give you so much credit, doing all of this while packing to move? I would need way more than acupuncture to be calm!!! You amaze me! xoxo catchatwithcarenandcody
What a fun weekend! That charcuterie tray looked amaze! I have been curious but skeptical about acupuncture and unsure if it was effective. But, hey, if it worked more power to you! Glad it helped before a big move. How exciting! have a great week! mymonochromaticlife.com
I've only had acupuncture done once but I felt the same way after like the stress had just melted away. I've been meaning to go back! Bastille Kitchen looks delicious and fun place to gather. The weather and scenery in Boston looks beautiful this time of year and so much charm for a big city. Still dying to visit as you know! lol
So fun! Your friends bridal shower looked like it turned out amazing and I love your maxi! I really need to visit boston soon!

Hooray for moving week!! So excited for y'all!
You looked gorgeous at the shower!! And YAY for moving week! So excited for you!!
Your weekend looks perfect, even with all of the packing that you did! Your friend's shower looks so beautiful and picture perfect too! The venue looks like a great place to visit. And yes to Boston being so walkable! I loved that when I visited a few years ago!
Such a beautiful location! Boston in the Summer there is seriously no better place!
Thats exciting news about moving! You are so cute! Love the pictures!
I'm so excited for your move and living vicariously! P.S. I LOVE your watchband!
That honey is TOO cute and I keep saying i am going to buy the new Essie polish but I haven't… yet. Looks like a great weekend! xoxo
I've always wanted to try acupuncture. I really want to now after you saying that. That bridal shower looked so cute and you and your friends are gorgeous!
First off that last photo of you holding the mimosa glass is so artsy and blogger-like. Love it.
Girl, how do you like barre? It is on my to do list for 2017. Also, a platter of ham, prosciutto, olives, crackers and cheese is always, always a favorite of mine. Especially accompanied by some melon, grapes and wine. 😉
Looks like a great wedding shower. Love you and Meg's dresses. I am talking weddings in my post today, too. 😉
I wish I lived closer to Boston so that I could enjoy it more. Its such a beautiful city and I don't get to experience it as much as I would like to. That bridal shower looked beautiful!
I've got to get to Boston! How charming! And you looked so pretty at the bridal shower! xx, I'm Fixin' To
