Where I’ve Been & Where I’m Going

Happy October, Philly ladies! It doesn’t really feel like October though, especially since I just turned the AIR CONDITIONING on in my apartment. What freaking gives.

McCormick Place Chicago

I wanted to give you a quick update on my life. After some amazing Philadelphia Restaurant Week excursions (helloooo Fogo de  Chao, Zahav & Tinto!) and trying so. many. ciders at the Pour the Core Cider Festival, I headed to Chicago for a conference all about e-commerce and online shopping. While I was only there a few days, my coworkers and I got to schmooze at some pretty cool parties, like the one below at the Terrace at Trump. I learned a lot at the conference and would love to go back & visit Chicago again soon. But mainly just to eat at RPM Italian a few more times . . . yum.

Terrace at Trump Tower

Before the conference was confirmed, my family and I had planned a trip to one of our favorite spots, Orlando! So despite the fact that I currently have 2.5 hours to unpack blazers and career dresses from my suitcase and repack it with sundresses, flip flops & bathing suits, I’m feeling pretty wonderful about relaxing on a much needed vacay. I’m unfortunately not one of those fab bloggers that has a bunch of posts scheduled to hold you over (I’m sorry . . . ), so please consider this a brief hiatus. If you miss me too much while I’m away, check out Her Philly on Twitter & Her Philly on Instagram.

I hope you all have a fabulous week & maybe the next time you see me I’ll be a teensy, tiny, little bit less florescent in skintone? But probably not. xx

Tonight was the best feeling of trying something n Tonight was the best feeling of trying something new. ⛳️ (I’m now looking up golf puns and I love how many have the word “putter” in them. 🥹🖤). 

My gal pal @calisonx and I took a ladies beginner golf clinic at @linwoodcc tonight. We both had absolutely never played golf past mini golf on the boardwalk… so this was fun & new. The late summer weather was simply stunning & on top of that, our class included THREE glasses of wine. 😅🍷

It was fun to get a new outfit (duh) and be in a social place that’s not a bar. My dad thinks this is where I will meet my future husband so let’s all send me some good vibes for that. 😉

I’m excited to take another class & learn more. 🏌🏻‍♀️Are any of you golfing girls? Would love to hear your tips on how to get into it (and/or meet your husband at the golf course.) 😉

What a gorgeous Philly evening to welcome three Je What a gorgeous Philly evening to welcome three Jersey gals for a little theatre (thanks to @kimmelculturalcampus!). My mom, sister, and I met to see @thelionking at @academymusicphl and it was simply *phenomenal.* 

We both found quick weeknight after 5pm parking at nearby lots ($16!) and had time for dinner & @vanleeuwenicecream before the play. 

The show is better than you could ever expect - the actors are just so talented (especially young Simba & Nala! The best part was watching the little kidsss enjoy it, too (three little boys in front of us were raising their Simba doll merch up at the end- so unreal 🥹). The show is so worth seeing while it’s here (now through 9/10!). 

A huge thanks to @kimmelculturalcampus for the beautiful Philly night out. 🖤
