An Awesome Little Day Trip

Happy Memorial Day weekend, friends!

(Still all about that canned wine life.) Also, I am obsessed with my suit here, and it is from Target! (What of it that one of my BFFs that I frequently travel with has the same one?! Speaking of…we just booked a trip to AUSTRALIA for New Year’s! Please hit me up with your recommendations.)

Yesterday, my friends and I took an awesome day trip that I’d wholeheartedly recommend to any NYC readers.

We wanted to go to the beach but didn’t want to go to a super crowded Long Beach or Rockaway. When I did the Iron Girl tri in Sandy Hook, I remember seeing that the ferry went there from the city. Sea Streaking it is!

We took an 11am ferry and were on the beach by noon! Once you get to Sandy Hook, there’s quite a few beaches you can choose from, but we did North Beach because there were the least people on the shuttle bus going there, and if we’d wanted a crowded beach…we would have stayed in NYC.

Moby's Lobster Deck

Afterwards, we went to Moby’s Deck in Highlands, a cute little waterside seafood shack. (Note: this is not public-transport accessible. A friend with a car met us at the beach and drove us here.)

10/10, would beach again.

Today I’m just chilling: did some shopping, some reading on my rooftop, some snuggling with Bailey.

I’m a huge fan of all the Memorial Day sales going on right now!

Old Navy: 50% off tanks, tees, shorts and swim. I got this jumpsuit, which I’m obsessed with because it looks very Lilly-esque.

J. Crew: everything 30% off with code WEEKEND

Nordstrom: Half Yearly Sale Time!! Pro tip: this includes Jack Rogers.

Victoria’s Secret: Sadly, they’re ending their swimwear business. HOWEVER, this means awesome sales — up to 60% off!

As I’m getting older, I know I need to cover up my face more on the beach. Just curious — are you team baseball hat or straw hat/
