After almost a year of Invisalign, I’ve finally found a combo that works for me! This Charlotte Tilbury liner in super size me and lipstick in candy chic is my Goldilocks combo of moisturizing enough without smudging and getting on my teeth. 💫💋💛

I’m not saying it’s necessarily “bad manners” to order a cappuccino after breakfast if you are at a restaurant and paying for yourself...

But you may turn some heads 😳, and it’s not something I would recommend asking for if you are dining as a guest at an Italian home. 🏡

First, let’s chat about how the coffee culture and customs in Italy differ…

⏱️ Unlike many Americans, Italians don’t drink any coffee any time they please.
🍳 Cappuccinos are served in the morning and with breakfast.
🌤️ Machhiatos are enjoyed mid-afternoon.
🌙 Meanwhile, espressos are served after dinner.
🏃‍♀️ And the ubiquitous American practice of coffee on the go… that’s not really a thing in Italy. Counter and table service is more common.
☕️ Rather than a pub style establishment, a “bar” is an Italian café where coffee is served.
📖 Don’t be surprised if a bar doesn’t have a menu. Memorizing your favorite Italian coffee is a solid plan!

Now to the terminology...

Caffé or caffé normale is simply an espresso, served black and in one shot increments. Instead of ordering a double, Italians order a second caffé for an extra kick of caffeine.

A cappuccino is a classic Italian espresso. It is served before or during breakfast, but not after a meal like lunch or dinner.

A caffé macchiato is a slightly milkier version of a simple caffe. Featuring a splash of frothy milk, unlike espresso drinks, it can be enjoyed all day long.

A caffé Americano is espresso diluted with hot water and is most similar to an American style drip coffee.

A caffé lungo, which means “long coffee” in English is an espresso with a splash of hot water.

Lastly, don’t order a latte unless what you want is a glass of milk.

I share this as someone who is typically fine ordering steak prepared as the chef desires, but I always feel for anyone who orders well done or medium well when others give them a hard time. 😔

Like so many things in dining etiquette, it’s best not to mention what others are eating and instead chat about something else.

Speaking of steak, this was the traditional Florentine T-bone from @bucamariofirenze in Florence. If a restaurant filled with tourists is not your cup of tea, than this spot likely won’t be your favorite, but it was an experience for sure! 🇮🇹

It’s been such a sweet weekend celebrating love with Alana and Ryan! 💫🤍

It’s reminded me of one of my favorite lessons the bride taught me years ago. Alana and I are cousins and about the same age, but she graduated from law school a few years before me. I turned to her for advice and encouragement early and often, including when I was very anxious about the LSAT, and I distinctly remember her telling me that I could let applying to law school, being a law student, or being an attorney take over my life at that moment or at any moment in the future. She gave the perspective I needed that choosing not to freak out was something I would have many opportunities to practice going forward.

It’s advice that continues to ring true for me today, and I wanted to share in case it might resonated with you, too. 🤗

I could go on and on about @alanajoyyce’s accomplishments over the years as an attorney 👩‍💼, dancer 🩰, marathoner 🏃‍♀️, musician 🎶, chef 🍝, cat lover 🐈, and overall enthusiast for all things that bring more zest to life 🍋, but most of all I admire how she shows up for and supports the ones the loves, and I couldn’t be happier that she found such an incredible partner to build a beautiful life with.

Cheers to the new Mr. and Mrs. Stanojev! 🎉🎉🎉

Loved this pretty, periwinkle Self Portrait dress for our last dinner in Italy…. At least until next time! 🤍🇮🇹🌊💫✈️

I’m also happily and comfortably walked more than a mile in these SJP collection shoes. 💃🏼

Wore this sweet, sage green V. Chapman gown for a black tie birthday party last night. I love the designer so much, I’m wearing two other dresses for my next two weddings. 🤍

Earrings are Loren Hope and shoes are blue Badgley Mischka. ✨

My go-to mascara trio!

Yes, I use all three at once, which may sound extra, but hear me out… 😘

I use Thrive for lower lashes because it’s the only thing I’ve found they doesn’t run. I use Lancôme on top lashes for volume, and finally Essence on the tips of my top lashes for length.

Loved the look and feel of this Cami NYC look that I wore for a date night in Madeira. 💗🌊

Who says you can’t wear an LBD for spring? I just add a little pink to brighten it up a bit. 💕

#LTKshoecrush #LTKstyletip #LTKbeauty

Not quite sure if this Self Portrait look is giving more Cinderella or Elsa, but I’m here for it. 🩵😘

I’m all for florals for spring 💐, but I was feeling this almost monochrome Love Shack Fancy silk skirt and Cami NYC pearl cardigan combo today 🤍💫

Sparkly tweed and pearls for my husband’s birthday dinner! I was planning on wearing nude pantyhose. Then, it was super chilly, so I went with tights, and I’m happy with how it turned out. 🖤✨

Of all the lines at Tuckernuck, Hyacinth House is definitely the one that I keep returning to again and again. I’ve styled this puffed sleeve sweater with pink Loren Hope earrings for a little color. 💕

I may not have reached all my goals (yet!), but at least my planners are pretty! 🥰

I love this pink and gold Erin Condren combo, I’ve gotten it two years in a row.

My favorite part of this outfit is definitely the shoes. They are the Ursula by SJP. 🌟They remind me of this little mermaid costume I wore for a figure skating routine at about age 10 in all the best ways. 🧜‍♀️⛸️

This look is from a date night earlier this week in Riviera Maya, Mexico. 🤍
