the lazy girls’ guide to the city of london
Like all good getaways, our #LTlondontown weekend extravaganza came and went all too soon. While the wino crossed an ocean for our mini-autumnal reunion, the romantic crossed town. This may not seem like a big deal! But we met back up in a part of London that she rarely explores: the City. Yes, it was just a weekend excursion. But we still feel confident that we crafted the perfect itinerary to present you with our own little guide ot the City of London. It surprises most people when they learn that London has two districts: the City of Westminster, and…

travel announcement! // back to london for #LTlondontown take 2
We’ve been hinting at it for weeks — mainly on Instagram — but in case you’ve been totally ignoring us (SHAME), we want to make it blog official. In exactly one week, the wino and her husband, Sean, will be wheels up. They’re flying back to London, for a group reunion that is LONG overdue! Why yes, it’s true, we’ve done London together not once, but TWICE before. It’s #LTlondontown time! AGAIN! With Ashley and Jeff now firmly planted in grand ole’ England (with lazy baby on the way!), it’s likely that we’ll be doing a lot of LT get-togethers…

happy hen: the wino wedding season is here!
We started this blog a little over three years ago now, and there’s no question: our lives have changed dramatically during this time. We’ve changed cities, we’ve changed jobs, we’ve changed cities again. We’ve changed our hair, we’ve changed direction, we’ve gotten overwhelmed, and we’ve gotten back on track. The romantic abandoned ship and became an expat. The wino fell in love, got engaged, and gets married in 5 days. That’s right: the wino wedding season is HERE! That is crazytown, and in all the best ways. Luckily for us, the wino’s other half swooped in and fit right into…

#LTselects: gordon’s wine bar
With just over two weeks to go until the wino becomes mrs. the wino, we’ve been spending most of our time here at LT headquarters talking on gchat about what’s still on her to do list, everything she’ll eat on her honeymoon, and how much champagne we’re going to drink (TOGETHER! REUNITED!) in about 13 days and counting. This should come as no surprise. Wine & champagne is at the heart of every great celebration. When we were together in London in November, a trip to the city’s oldest wine bar, Gordon’s Wine Bar, was very obviously in order. Spoiler…

foodie break: festive afternoon tea at the conrad london st. james
With less than ten days until Christmas and the winners of our #LTholidays giveaway announced, it’s safe to say we’re fully immersed in the holiday spirit. As we’re living in new cities this year, we can’t wait to explore how each celebrates the season! Yes, the tried and true holiday attractions are near and dear to our hearts. People love Winter Wonderland in London’s Hyde Park! The Light Show in Philadelphia’s Wanamaker Building is a classic for a reason! But the crowd-hating, semi-claustrophobic versions of ourselves also appreciate a quieter celebration, away from all the hustle and bustle. Enter: Festive…
