Plaid at The Palace

Plaid at The Palace

One of the most quintessential holiday locations in New York City is The Palace Hotel. They usually have a gorgeous tree in their courtyard, but not this year. Apparently, the hotel will be under construction, so they decided to skip it. Instead, they opted for wreaths and garlands on the exterior. Honestly, it was still perfectly festive and I felt like I was on brand wearing plaid at The Palace for the holidays.

This is another casual outfit option if you’re not feeling fancy. Black jeans are a little dressier than blue. Details like bows (on my top, earrings and shoes), and a bold lip color take it up a notch. Plus, you can’t go wrong with plaid this time of year!

Seth turned six months old this week, and I shared a special video on Instagram. It’s so crazy to think that he’s been in the world for half a year already. Life is certainly different, and we’re still learning and adjusting every day. But, the love we have for our little dude is immeasurable. This weekend, we’re moving some things around in our apartment so Seth can start sleeping in his crib in his own room. Please send positive vibes for all of us!
