Packing for the Hamptons & The Weekend

This past week has been a little more than hectic.  Between work projects, Luca’s bathroom renovation and rushing-in last minute shopping, I was also getting things ready for our get away for a week.  We have rented a house in The Hamptons specifically in Sag Harbor and I’m so looking forward to just disconnecting starting from tomorrow.  Whenever I’m going away I like to refresh my wardrobe by getting a few pieces that could relate to the place I’m going to and when I found these jeans with an uber-cool tag on it, I was sold.  Because nothing says more “Boho-Chic” to me than Sag Harbor.  I’ve heard a lot of good things about Tahitian Monoi oil so I was happy when I found this one (below) and even happier when I tried it.  It’s unbelievably soft and smells heavenly.  The great thing about is that it’s not greasy at all.  It feels more like a silky touch.  It really is incredible!

While up-and-around in the City I use sunblock that don’t smell like sunblock but for the beach or a beachy town I want to smell sunblock all over.  After all that is a smell that I absolutely adore.  I’m looking forward to trying this one below.  Available here.  If it turns out that it doesn’t smell too much like sunblock we’ll have Jack Black, a product we’ve been using for a few years now. 

when under the sun I like to spray this L’Occitane product on my hair because it protects it from the sun rays, sea water and the pool.  A girl’s gotta take care of her hair!

Bon Voyage! I’ll make sure I stop in once in  a while. 
Have an excellent weekend everyone!

    I was just in the Hamptons this summer for a wedding. I love Sag Harbor, it is my favorite town there. Stop in at the American Hotel for a nice lunch or dinner. It has so much history and is really charming. Enjoy!

    Oh have a great time!! I just love the comments on the jeans label – I may have to get them just for the description! I've never heard of Tahitian Monoi oil so I will have to check it out. Hope you'll have a little review when you return!

    Sunday Taylor, thank you for visiting and your comment. You're right the American Hotel is a must to visit in Sag Harbor. I stayed there for a weekend about five years ago and absolutely adore the charm of it. I'll make sure I at least grab a drink there.
