100 Montaditos x DC

Tuesday, December 16, 2014

Last week I had the pleasure of attending the grand opening party for a new Spanish restaurant in DC called 100 Montaditos. They're famous for their 100 different kinds of yummy and creative tiny sandwiches. The food is delicious and the space is so cool. Some of my favorite non-sandwich eats were the meat and cheese platters and French fries. You can pretty much spend the whole day their eating, drinking, and looking at the many framed photos on the walls. So if you're by the Nat's Stadium in DC and you're looking for yummy food, pitchers of sangria, and a fun vibe I recommend 100 Montaditos.

Here are some pictures from the event...

Rent The Runway x Georgetown

Tuesday, November 25, 2014

Good morning! Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending the grand opening party of Rent the Runway's new showroom location in Georgetown D.C. You can now browse, try on, reserve, or pickup a rental all in one day. The space is so beautiful. Designer gowns, cocktail dresses, handbags and accessories at every turn and don't get me started on the dressing room! Each room has their own mirror with adjustable lighting! From day lighting to evening lighting. There's even a "selfie mirror" where you can take up to 3 photos so you can see how you photograph in the rental. I'll take one of those for my house please, thanks!

Here are some photos from the event...

The Taste of DC is a 2-day event with area restaurants, beer and wine, live entertainment, and local businesses. You get access to 50+ D.C. restaurants/food trucks and over 100 beers and wines to taste. We had a really great time. Here are some photos...

Gelato and a Movie at Union Market

Friday, July 25, 2014

Happy Friday!! Today's post is kind of a part 2 of Tuesday's post. I wanted to share with you guys where I was when we took those photos.

One of the many reasons why I love Instagram is that it allows me to find new places that I would have never known existed. What did we ever do before hashtags?! LOL Union Market in DC is one of them. It's a year-round indoor market featuring 40 local artisans. It has so much to offer and is still in the process of growing. When it's complete it will be a mix of retail, restaurants, hotel, and entertainment. What also makes Union Market unique is the addition of 2 of my favorite places, Dolcezza and Angelika Pop-Up. Dolcezza is a coffee and gelato shop. This location happens to be the actual Gelato Factory & Coffee Lab. Just opened this Summer, the Angelika Pop-Up is a three screen micro cinema right next door to Dolcezza. It's temporary while they build the permanent Angelika Film Center. If you have never been to this film center, you must. There are some in TX, NY, and VA. As well as some affiliated cinemas. If you like fancy, you'll love this movie theater. The Pop-Up location at Union Market is so cute and trendy with a lounge area and tons of vintage movie posters. If you're in the DC area make sure to make a trip here. Make it a gelato and movie night and show your same-day ticket stub to receive 10% off your gelato purchase. ;)

July 4th Weekend

Monday, July 7, 2014

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend. Angel surprised me with a stay at Capella in Georgetown. It is the most incredible hotel. They had a 4th of July event on their rooftop with a live band, BBQ, and the perfect view of DC's fireworks show. If you are ever in DC and want to feel catered to, I HIGHLY recommend Capella. Luxury at its finest. Here are some photos from our stay:

These photos are of our room and brunch the next morning at the Grill Room. Some of my favorite amenities were the waterfall shower, infinity pool, personal assistant services, and rooftop bar/lounge exclusively for guests. And the food, of course, was phenomenal!!!

These next photos were taken on July 4th and the next morning at their rooftop infinity pool.

This weekend was definitely a treat and a 4th of July for the record books.
