It’s been a week and a half since I said goodbye to the Upper West Side and hello to Chattanooga. One last look at my home of a decade, one last selfie in my famous lobby, a sad goodbye to my gorgeous Starbucks friends (that was the hardest—tears were shed), my dearest friends helped me load pack and clean and load the minivan with everything I owned. Lisa flew from Chattanooga to help with all things move and drove south with me. When I arrived in Chattanooga the effervescent welcome wagon that is Farron greeted me with a “humble” t-shirt exclaiming “Go Maggie!” and gave me a place to crash before I moved into the new place in Chattanooga. More stories and pics to follow. Just a little update for now—as I wrestle with organizing my own wardrobe for once. Thanks for all the hugs, tears, prayers, well-wishes, and love I received from my NYC family and thanks for the huge welcome from all of my Chattanooga peeps. I feel so loved and I’m so thankful for each of you. ❤️
Last day at the office selfie. .

Next stop? Chattanooga.
Looks from “Kwame.” a shoot I created with photography by @welcome_to_marsz last spring. It was originally titled “Hey, there handsome” but was deemed too long by the bosses. More of #mcm Kwame to come!

The two Maggie’s take Manhattan. ❤️❤️❤️
That moment when it’s 2:30 pm and you realize that when you got dressed that morning you accidentally channeled the style of a member of an unknown 80s hairband. #reuniontour

Happy 44th 👰 🎩 wedding anniversary to these two baes. Recently spotted strolling through Central Park holding hands like it was their first date. May we all be so lucky to share such a love. Happy anniversary mom and dad. We love you! ❤️😘❤️
Spent a fashionable Saturday evening on the Met Rooftop with my new best friend @chloecarol_nyc. She really loved my red lipstick and, as you can see, Chloe has exceptional taste. It was an excellent day with some dear friends. It’s been 3 days and my heart is still full. ❤️❤️❤️
I try not to take pics of my food and post here but y’all there was a chocolate Empire State Building on my plate!!! Also on that plate? The most delicious brownie-cookie filled with banana ice cream and served with banana-foster-chocolate-peanut-sauce-wonderfulness. @stategrill calls it #TheKong #EmpireLightSwich I call it MAGIC!
In a secret location below the Empire State Building where everything is #luxe —even the trash cans.

Hot as hades out there

Central Park with these baes. My heart is full.
Oh, Sherrill. .

Unseen behind him-a stack of pizza boxes that read: “bad boys like pizza”. Truer words. Truer words. Though, this bad boy had the lasagna.
Look who just showed up at my office! I love these two so much.
Excited about everything in my #FabFitFun box—except the contour. Why @fabfitfun why?!?! I love eye stuff and hate countour—it even says so in my profile. I was REALLY looking forward to the eye palette and liquid liner. Anyone out there want to do a trade?! 😭🤞🏻

In the meantime, I cannot WAIT to try all of the other goodies. It’s so fun trying new beauty products. Anyone have a fave “cannot live without” product? Tell me everything!
That feeling when this is what’s waiting for you in the mail. Wow. It’s really finished. Can’t wait to celebrate at graduation next week! Mom and Dad are flying in for the festivities!

It’s really happening y’all. I am finished with the program at FIT that I started on my birthday in 2016. I thought I’d just take one class and that’d be it. Instead I stuck with it. I’ve learned a lot from excellent instructors and made some pretty terrific friends along the way. Now on to graduation and celebration at the end of June! Ready for the next chapter. Any suggestions? .

True love. Came home to find this box of treasures from my favorites on the occasion of me finally finishing school. (Graduation June 28th!) Dino + air plant, feelin’ 💯 banner, fancy dark chocolate bar, and a sketchbook for my purse.
They know me well and have supported me through thick and thin. Love you, whores!

My face? That’s how tired I am this week—It was 8 pm and I had not been drinking but look 4 drinks in. 😳Next weekend is going to be magic. No school. No work. And a long visit from @tylereperron ❤️ I may look like myself again soon.
