I’m a bit odd when it comes to surprises: I love to be surprised but hate knowing they’re coming. I either want to be in on the secret or completely oblivious. And on my quarter-century birthday this past Saturday, E managed a perfect surprise. He took me to our favorite Long Island coffee shop, Tiger Lily Cafe in Port Jefferson. Just as I’m preparing my order, I get a tackling hug from behind; my sister and her fiancee drove up from the city to spend an afternoon with us. We sipped on cappuccinos and tahitian vanilla chai while catching up on post-Christmas happenings. 
The weather has been incredibly mild during our travels. We’ve creeped to the fifties and, while my suitcase is wildly overpacked, I’m loving this chance to wear lighter blouses with less bulky jackets. Floral pieces and leather trimmed looks are a go-to combo this winter. They seem so feminine yet give a modern vibe which is my favorite balance.
