Bobby and I recently had our first trip away from home, to an airbnb just outside the city with Courtney, Paris, Courtney’s mom Lori, and their dog Waffles. Courtney found and booked the place — you can find the listing here. It’s a quick drive outside the city but everything feels worlds away once you’re out of NYC.
Courtney and Paris are the first friends we have seen since March, save for a quick curbside, early birthday gift drop off from my dear friend Angie a month or so ago. Angie and I were both masked, socially distanced, and got to chat for about 5 minutes before she headed out. I cried on my way up the elevator — I miss my friends and family so much. I’m lucky that I’ve been in Bobby’s company and that we have a big outdoor space, but being with friends in a “normal” setting was just what I needed for a mental reset.
Paris, Courtney, and her mom have been as cautious as we have, forgoing casual social interactions even as our city has largely reopened, and so we decided to take an isolation bubble trip. Honestly, I’m well aware that I have been a little over the top, but it’s not out of fear — it’s out of caution. I would love to see my friends, but knowing they’ve seen their friends without masks, who have seen their other friends without masks, etc…the chain is too long for me to feel comfortable and I’d rather just wait a little longer. It will make our reunions that much sweeter.
I do feel hopeful, because we have learned how to mitigate risk and dip our toes into rejoining society in a cautious way with masks and social distancing and outdoor activities. This trip felt like a big step in navigating a limited social life outside of our apartment!
We didn’t even have to leave the property, and Lori (Courtney’s mom) cooked dinner for us each night and made us feel like family. Most of our time was spent just hanging out and chatting, working on our laptops at the table, or lounging around. But naturally, we had to shoot some photos for our respective blogs and social, because it was so nice to have a background other than the insides of our apartments!
A few weeks ago, Courtney asked if I wanted to put together some Disney inspired cottagecore looks with her for her account @colormemagic, and the answer was YES, of course! I never heard the term cottagecore until a few months ago, but turns out it’s just kind of a big part of my daily style. This Sister Jane dress (exact one can be found here, on sale!) felt like the perfect Belle outfit for a day in the country. It beat out my yellow Loveshackfancy dress that I wear all the time, because it had the twirl factor. Princesses love a good twirl, don’t they?
Stay tuned for another Disney Princess duo…can you guess which ones are next?
