Kicking off Summer from Spruce Street Harbor Park to South Street!

Last night I attended the Spruce Street Harbor Park kickoff party, which was my official kick off of Summer! 

 I got to sip watermelon margaritas and eat ice cream from Franklin Fountain with my best friend💕 on the waterfront, sitting in the sand, with music playing, and minus the crowds... it was a perfect Thursday night. 

 After we sampled the foods that will be featured at Harbor Park this season, and walked along the waterfront some, we took a little impromptu trip over to South Street to check out Eye's Gallery. I have been following Eye's Gallery on Instagram for a while, and have always been captivated by all of their colorful, cultural rich posts, and have been dying to go in-person. 

 Eye's Gallery is a beautiful little gem hidden in the middle of South Street. The gallery is a majorly colorful bazaar and museum filled to the brim with Indian & Latin American folk art, jewelry & handmade gifts. One thing is cooler than the next as you walk through all three levels of the gallery. Each unique piece placed throughout the place has it's own story to tell. 

 Eye's gallery is definitely a site to see, and I recommend next time you're in the city you stop in to visit! I know I will definitely be back to do some shopping, and maybe purchase a pair of funky silver earrings or a Frida Kahlo tee. 

 It was a little impromptu early celebration of Cinco De Mayo with a couple of margs at Spruce Street and the Mexican folk art at Eye's Gallery.  😊

 Every trip I ever take into Philly offers a unique and fun little adventure. I love visiting city staples as well as discovering new gems throughout our city! Philadelphia has it's own culture within itself, and I am in love with every part of it!

 Here are the photos from yesterday's trip:

Christmas Fun for Everyone!

I spent the chilly afternoon at Six Flags Great Adventure Holiday in the Park yesterday, to get into the holiday spirit. Tweety Bird, Bugs Bunny, and toy soldiers gathered around a ginormous decorated tree, and greeted everyone entering the park! Fake snow was falling down, as Christmas carols played throughout the park to welcome you into the whimsical wonderland. The entire park was transformed into a Christmas oasis with Christmas lights, decorated trees, and holiday characters all over for photo-ops. Families gathered to keep warm and to roast marshmallows in the s'mores fire pits and sipped hot chocolate. Many other delicious holiday treats such as Christmas themed funnel cakes and yuletide brews were available throughout the park as well. You could eat, drink, and be merry while watching the holiday concert in the center of the park with specials guests like Santa Claus and Rudolph. Be careful with your hot chocolate intake though if you plan on jumping onto adrenaline- r...

Mikey P's private VH1 Dating Naked Premiere Party in Philly!

I attended the premiere party with my friend September 4, for the new VH1 show "Dating Naked," hosted by one of the cast members who's a Philly native, Mikey P! Mikey knew how to throw a banger, at club Roxy/ Bamboo Bar. There was a dance floor, drinks flowing, and different DJ's and performers killing it throughout the night. The guest list included all of his friends and family, well known Philly radio DJ's and a variety of reality stars from VH1 shows. All the guests mingled and the celebrity guests posed on the red carpet as they showed up. Then as 9pm rolled around, everyone gathered around all the televisions set up, to watch Mikey P's big debut on "Dating Naked." After we all watched Mikey choose which girl was his soul mate, by geting to know them um.. "inside and OUT," the music got loud and everyone broke into their best moves on the dance floor! It was really fun to get to party with all the reality stars at this private party! E...
