Guys. I'm so sorry it'd been over a week. Please understand -what with the chaos and exhaustion of traveling and trying to get back into work mode (I literally go to bed before 11 on most nights now! Ah jet-lag) and I have some added news that has been taking up a lot of my brainwaves - I am now engaged!!! Can you believe it? When I'm driving alone, I practice saying sentences using the words "Fiance" and "Husband" and they still sound strange, but in a good way! Anyway, I promise I will be better about posting now, and I'll keep you updated on fun wedding stuff too. So far, all I know is that we are planning the wedding at my house, in the beautiful backyard, and it will be in August, and there will be a second wedding in October in Istanbul, whence my "fiance" hails. Anyway, here are some photos of us, and I promise a fashion post is on the way.
This photo was taken last weekend on the top floor of Deniz Palas, which is now a modern Italian-Turkish fusion restaurant called "X" (Futuristic, oui?) with the Bosphorus in the background. It was that perfect time of day when the sun goes down and there is a light haze over everything. Perfect for rooftop cappuccinos and biscotti!
At a winery in Cappadoccia, which looks like this:
In Marmaris, a beach resort town in southern Turkey. I had just gotten a serious bout of car sickness from the winding roads and driving at high altitudes (I'm such a gringo, right?) and I was sitting on this wall trying not to throw up, and Ozgur was there to keep me company! That's love! Not pictured is his mom, dad, and sister waiting for us in the car by the side of the mountain road.

And this was the first photo of us every taken!!! About a week or two after we met. We used to love parking by the beach in Boston and get sandwiches and stare at the kids that ditched school and were playing volleyball.
Thats all for now, see you soon!!
Cheers,
