Hello, November! Hope you all had a fun Halloween last night or last weekend, and a lovely October! I truly love Octobers; this past month was such a great one with a high school friend's wedding, a trip upstate to see the foliage, an engagement party for a friend here in NYC, and just overall lots of pumpkin coffees, leaf peeping, and time with my favorite people!

I woke up this morning and went out to early vote! It was very easy and quick, and I would highly encourage everyone to vote if you haven't already! You can find your polling place here if you live in New York or here for other states!

Of course, after the election we have Thanksgiving this month as well! I am so excited for Thanksgiving this year because I'll be staying in NYC and my mom and brother are coming to town to visit; we'll go to the Macy's Day Parade which I've always wanted to do, and then have Thanksgiving at my apartment! I'm excited to host and plan out my tablescape and menu!!

Anyway, hope you love this month's moodboard! Please tag me on Instagram if you download this month's moodboard -- I absolutely love to see it on your screens!

Fall Home Decor Finds

Fall Home Decor Finds Fran Acciardo

We put up wallpaper in our dining area on Friday and it has completely reignited my inspiration to decorate our apartment! Since moving in in February, I've been traveling a ton and decorating fell to the back burner. With the exception of a few weekend trips, I'm actually planning to be home almost all of this fall, and it's really getting me into the decorating mood. So, I've rounded up some fall decor pieces I am loving!

October 2024 Moodboard (Desktop & iPhone Wallpapers!)

Good morning, October! My favorite month of the year is here in NYC - sweater weather, rainy days, pumpkin coffees, and changing leaves, what more could we ask for?!


September absolutely flew by; it was my first month in a while with minimal travel (just a quick trip to Raleigh to visit my mom!) and it was lovely to be back in the city for a while to get into more of a routine after so much summer travel. Over the past few weeks, I started on an exciting new project for work, upped my Solidcore membership, and I've gotten back into shooting Instagram content with friends, which was long overdue. This past weekend was especially a highlight with the ballet and the Sabrina Carpenter concert!


I'm so excited for this month; I'm heading to a friend's wedding in DC, as well as upstate on a cute weekend getaway with Joe - I've never really been upstate to the Hudson area and I'm SO excited! I think it'll be so pretty and cozy - can't wait.

Happy Labor Day & happy September! I can't believe summer is wrapping up and it's already a new month. From Nantucket to Wisconsin, celebrating my birthday and spending time with friends, this past month was another wonderful August!


I'm looking forward to spending September in the city; I'm excited for the weather to cool down, and for a whole month to simply enjoy being at home! It was such a fun summer of travel, and now I'm excited to relax and get into a nice routine.

Nantucket Edit

I'm heading back to Nantucket this weekend with some of my best friends, and I am beyond excited. Last year was my first trip to Nantucket, and I had the time of my life! I'm excited to head back with a bit of familiarity of the island and just have a fun girls weekend -- really, is there anything better?

I'm excited about what I'm packing this year and thought I'd share a round up of what's in my suitcase (like this dress, this striped sweater, and my favorite linen shorts) along with what I wish I was packing (like this basket bag that's currently 50% off and this chic backless swimsuit).
