1.) How would you describe your style?
My style definitely varies depending on my mood and weather! Overall, how I would describe my style is polished, colorful, and comfortable.
2.) For those visiting the city in the summer, what do you recommend them to pack when deciding what to wear?
One of the most important things to pack for visiting NYC is a pair of comfortable shoes. There's so much to see and even with transportation, there's a lot of places you can easily explore by walking in between. Sundresses make it easy to get dressed and stay cool in the heat. Also, don't forget to bring a light jacket — the weather's dramatic here and you never know when you'll need an extra layer!
3.) What is your favorite thing to do/place to visit in NYC during the summer?
I love exploring gardens and parks around the city in the summer. It's so nice to get outside and unwind. Some of my favorites are Elizabeth Street Garden, Central Park, New York Botanical Garden, Jefferson Market Garden, and Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
Also, I recently visited the Planting Fields Arboretum in Oyster Bay on Long Island (shown in these photos) that's about an hour from the city. It was so fun going there with my family and boyfriend — we went just in time to see the flowers in full bloom!
4.) Where would you wear the Catalina dress and how would you style it?
I would wear the Catalina dress for so many occasions: going to brunch, the gardens, picnics, and vacation. How I would style it is with gold flat sandals, a straw bag, sunglasses, and dainty jewelry.
5.) What are 2-3 additional favorite pieces from our new summer collection?
