warmest,

Love, laughs, and a bit of travel exhaustion. That might best categorize my first mini-tour for Vaute Couture! Stopping in DC (Busboys & Poets), Boston (Peace o’Pie) and NYC (group vegan sale with Cri de Coeur & Olsen Haus) last week, after a little eco luxe group sale in my hometown (with Mountains of the Moon, Objets d’Envy, and Lara Miller) meant lots of driving, quick as I can pitstops, new faces, and new faces to familiar names (my favorite!) <3 It was so amazing seeing everyone in person- thank you a million times for coming out!

Looking forward to the West Coast next. xoxo

at Busboys & Poets- with the gorgeous Vanessa!

warmest,

Flew in for the HSUS Fashion Awards with Joshua Kachter (the Discerning Brute), my girl Jodi Taylor (above), Michael Parrish Dudell (Ecorazzi & VegDaily), and vegan shoe designer Elizabeth Olsen. We enjoyed some Nigel Barker, Wayne Pacelle (HSUS President), and the lovely pieces from finalists all over the country… (speaking of which, Kelly Prin, if you’d care to stop impersonating my Chi-town girl Kelly Brinn the REAL finalist, I’d appreciate it! *wink*)

Ahhh vegan NYC food. I just could not get enough. (Though my wallet begged me!) Nor did I make it to even half the stops on my list, which btw definitely grew by the minute. (Um- a mostly vegan sushi place? Hello! My dreams called, said so happy to come true! Nate called and said- bring some home in your suitcase!) But I did enjoy very much the BBQ tempeh and sweet potato sandwich at Candle Cafe, a biscuits with strawberries & cream at Babycakes (above),  incredible Chocolate Cake Donuts from Vegan Treats (thanks Andy!), and a late night array at Food Swings (above) with my hosts with the mosts.

And the NY League of Humane Voters Gala! An inspiring night filled with those speaking up for animals in NYC with their voices and their votes. Founded by  John Phillips, brought together politicians, lawyers, activists, and artists to celebrate advocating for animals together, including some of my favorite people… Meredith Turner of the Farm Sanctuary, Ali Berman of Livin’ Veg, Chloe Jo Berman of the GirlieGirlArmy, and so many more. And the food? Gosh, don’t make me blush!

So the tee shirt is true!? I really do heart NYC!
