In this age of having everything literally at our fingertips, apps doesn’t stand for appetizers anymore! Like most people my age, I am glued to my iPhone, taking pictures of everything, so thought I would just share my favorite photo apps with you all… instagram: unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’re sharing your photos on […]

One of the first questions people ask me about my times in Israel is, “Which city do you love more: Jerusalem or Tel Aviv?” That is the ultimate apples and oranges kind of question.

So…. if you follow me on instagram or snapchat (gfstarr1) you saw the awesomeness that was my Thursday night. If you don’t follow me (shame on you!): BILLY JOEL. FENWAY PARK.

What do the 1960s, early 2000s, and 2015 have in common? Bell-bottom jeans, to start. Hippie Chic is making a comeback, yet again! I have no complaint about this; I have a wardrobe full of brighty, flowing dresses and dangly earrings. I love the dewey, bronzed summer goddess look made popular by legends like Brigitte Bardot […]
Read MoreLess than a week left in Israel, and less than two weeks until Boston. Oh, Boston. My city, my home, my heart. If you’ve read my first few posts on this blog, you know how I feel about my hometown. I dedicated the first ever post to my city after the bombing, and how proud […]
