Oh glorious Head of the Charles Regatta. When all of the preppies come out to play.
This year’s weather was not quite as beautiful as last year’s, but snuggled up along the river with hot sandwiches + cider, we were just fine. This is one of my favorite fall traditions, and this year was no different!
We walked around Harvard Square for a bit after [my out-of-town friends needed their JP Licks fix– all you locals know what I mean] and snapped these photos. I’m so excited(!), especially, to show off my new York Design Co. needlepoint cuff from Ma Petite LuLu— a brand new online boutique, featuring the most adorable accessories for all ages.
Downtown Field Jacket, J.Crew (25% off!) | Oxford, Ralph Lauren | Jeans, H&M | Whale Cuff, York Design Co. c/o Ma Petite LuLu | Rope Bracelet, KJP | Around the World Watch, Urban Outfitters | Blackwatch Hat, Southern Proper | Kensington Satchel, Madewell | Boat Shoes c/o New England Outerwear
I can’t stop thinking about what a perfect Christmas gift these cuffs would make– whether the gal in your life has a flair for nautical, is sporty, or loves stamping her monogram on anything. YCD’s talent doesn’t stop there– Ma Petite LuLu also carries her needlepoint clutches! Plus, they are all handcrafted in the USA, sooo [insert victory hands emoji].
Bonus perks? MPLL offers free shipping and charges a mere $3(!!) for gift wrapping. If you’re looking to order a personalized cuff, be sure to order by THIS Friday, October 31st to absolutely guarantee delivery before Christmas. All other orders should be received by December 12th.
Happy shopping prepsters!

CUTEST EVER! The weather this year was seriously amazing. I mean, the wind could have knocked it off a little bit (almost lost my hat at least five times), but we really keep lucking out with the sunny HOTC weekends!
