do you watch the @macys thanksgiving day parade? we always do! one year when i was living in nyc my whole family came into town and rented an apartment across from @thegarden. we watched the parade from the uws and had thanksgiving dinner in the west village!

sharing our guide to visiting nyc at christmas on the blog - featuring the best window displays, festive restaurants + holiday markets ✨

“It’s tradition for us to window shop and hop from festive displays to festive bars and trees in NYC around the holidays. I grew up visiting NYC as a kid and spent my 20’s living and working in NYC as a Broadway Actress.

There is something so special about NYC at Christmas time - the crisp air, the twinkling lights, and buildings - the festivities are plentiful in the Big Apple, ringing in the holiday season and ushering in the New Year!”

“Consciousness over convenience. How we spend our time + money matters.

You vote every time you swipe your credit card, hand over a twenty, tap for a purchase, sign up for a subscription, dine out, shop for a gift or a bottle of wine. Now more than ever it is important to harness your power and focus on what you can control - starting in your household and with your daily purchases.

Convenience dominates our culture, our lifestyles + our diets. We’re constantly seeking the quickest, easiest, best way to coast through life.

Convenience is a trap. Convenience does not cultivate long-lasting positive results for our bodies, our communities, families, or our planet. Taking time to slow down, breathe, and thoughtfully plan our shopping lists can positively impact our lives while simultaneously blessing others in our community.

When we are conscious of our purchases we can plan for a more sustainable + locally sourced shopping experience.

Conscious consuming: taking responsibility for our actions - starting with how we spend our energy, time + and tokens.

Supporting local farms, butchers + bakeries keeps your dollars within your community. Same with visiting your local flea market, co-op, produce stand, main street shop, winery, or consignment boutique. Cut the middleman out + shorten your personal supply chain. You’re also helping protect and preserve historical buildings, farmland + parks, and community centers.

Our mission to rescue vintage treasures allows us to elevate spaces, events + experiences with the planet in mind. Upcycling with vintage art, glassware, furniture and clothing helps reduce one’s carbon footprint.

Before you head to the store this week or check out online for the holidays - pause and ask yourself:
Can I source this item locally or secondhand?  Is there a small business that makes/creates/designs/sources this item instead?

Encouraging you to use your dollar to support a farmer, a neighbor, or a friend. Community over convenience. Consciousness over convenience. Convenience is a trap.”

Happy Small Business Saturday - support our small business with a like, comment, reshare, review or referral ✨ #smallbusinesssaturday

the wedding of ian + liane on the blog today with beautiful snaps by @jboldphoto ✨

“The wedding of Mr. Ian Hill + Ms. Liane Zielinski took place at The Great Falls Center in Paterson, NJ on September 27, 2024. After a morning of mimosas, glitter, and giggles - the bride and groom shared an emotional first look, embracing each other before photos with their iconic wedding party and family, who made the entire day SO much fun!

“Adult Chuck E Cheese” is what Lu described to me as her wedding vibe - and if you were there, I think you’d agree - the playful atmosphere, joy, and love surrounding the couple felt truly like a kid on their birthday!”

our wedding flowers upcycled into a homemade wreath ✨

“A a full circle moment of reflection on the love, joy, and energy we’ve received this past year celebrating our wedding.

There is something so beautiful about the energy flowers carry on your wedding day. Our flowers were extra special - some coming from local farms (@jerseycutflowermarket) and hand-crafted by Sal from @floraanddean.

Every time we walk in and out of our home now we are reminded of the commitment and seal of love we made to each other on that day with all our family and friends as witnesses.”

the story behind the vintage wedding fur stole ✨

“Tucked in the back of her closet was her late Mother, Irene Evelynne Polansek’s vintage fur stole - in mint condition no less. When Carol found it - she knew I had to have it. Little did she know I was on the hunt for one already - a match made in heaven, literally!

Carol’s Mom, Irene worked for Arnold Constable & Company as a Junior Buyer when Carol was in high school in the 1950s. At one point Arnold Constable & Company was the oldest department store in America - operating for over 150 years from its founding in 1825 to its closing in 1975.

Irene loved her job and was a true fashionista long before it was trendy for women to work.”

I feel so honored and humbled to share the stories and legacies of women who have walked before me. Women who shaped, changed, and challenged history. Wearing Irene’s fur on our wedding day was extra sentimental - sharing her story is just as special.”

thanksgiving fall outfit inspo ✨

#LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal #LTKWatchNow

get to know lucid ladybug: 
* I married my high school sweetheart Ryan, last November + we have a golden retriever, @thegolden.asher.
* I see life in pictures. I walk into a room and immediately start to re-style it in my head.
* I’ve always been into fashion and photography - covering my childhood bedroom walls with magazine clippings and photographs while sourcing my outfits from thrift stores before thrifting was ever considered cool (Treasure Chest fill a bag at @sandycoveministries may be where it all started).
* My background is in theatre. I lived my dreams as a professional dancer, singer, and actress, spending my 20s living in NYC and traveling the world as a Broadway performer. I started seriously blogging while working for Disney Cruise Line (however, I've always been a writer). Covid altered my life’s course in 2020 - it’s been a fun (hard) journey of rediscovery for me these past 4 years.
* I am an avid baker - brownies, cookies, cakes, pies, breads - I love the process of making it all from scratch.
* I’m a bookworm. Growing up, I was too busy styling my Barbies or pretending I was a garden fairy outside to watch TV. My husband calls me Belle and carries me to bed after I fall asleep on the couch reading. One day, I’ll have that library ladder!
* I believe movement is medicine - practicing yoga, walking Asher, and working outside in our garden is where you’ll find me when I’m not at my desk.
* We grow fresh organic produce, herbs, and flowers in our backyard. It brings us immense joy to share our harvest with others, and we love volunteering at @rancocascreekfarm when we can.
* I went full-time with lucid ladybug this past summer - it’s been an amazing (scary) journey of faith and trust in God’s plan for my life. Watching the puzzle pieces slowly come together has been my greatest privilege.
* I am inspired by my family and friends who surround me and the art that I find in every nook and cranny of God’s beautiful earth. I am most in tune when in nature.
* I learned to set the table from my Mom - who inspires so much of my business and taught my sis and I to be smart, savvy, and stylish! ✨
