Spring Fling X 2011: Golf




So as you all know, I was in California for a jam packed 60 hours this weekend for several amazing events. The first of these was Spring Fling, a charity event for JDRF that my family started 10 years ago. It grew from a small bowling party to a golf tournament and evening bash, and a ladies lunch was added a few years later, resulting in a full day event of non-stop fun and fundraising.


This year, our tenth year, the theme was eXtreme (get it?) and the colors were orange and purple, as you can probably tell from the photos below.


This post is just on the golf tournament section of the event. I know you’re all dying to know who won, and the fivesome that took home the gold, so to speak, had a total score of 55, which as you golf-fanatics know, is quite something. They did purchase 100, or $5000 worth mulligans, or do-overs, so there was a bit of speculation as to how legit the win was…In any case, it was all in good fun, and the weather was fabulous this year, unlike last year when it was practically hurricane-ing.
And don’t worry, later on I’ll have posts of the Lunch and the Evening Bash, as well as what I wore to both.


For now, enjoy the golf pictures!

60 Hours Later

Dorm sweet dorm 

I’m back in New York after 60 exhausting but amazing hours in California. Just to give you all a brief rundown, I left Thursday night, and starting at 9am on Friday was my family’s annual Spring Fling, a charity event for Juvenile Diabetes. I got to bed around 1 (4am New York time) after 3 outfit changes and a super hectic day.
I got a little rest in on Saturday before running off to Charity Fashion Show, which sadly I had to leave early to be able to catch my flight. Then our driver missed the exit to the airpot, and to top it all of I forgot my flats, so I was running through the airport in my heels and leather pants, looking just a tad ridiculous. Luckily, I made my flight and slept the whole way, waking up to a beautiful New York sunrise outside my window.
Like I said, this is just a brief rundown, trust me when I say I have fantastic posts for every part of the weekend coming soon, but for now I have to worry about my homework…

Lauren

I know I’ve been doing some text heavy posts lately, so I wanted to give your eyes a break from all that small text with some pictures of Lauren, looking very cute in her mixed neutrals and wearing HEELS in spite of the rain (and just to put it in perspective, I was wearing leggings and rain boots). Enjoy!

An outtake-
Isn’t she the cutest?

And my apologies for the lack of posts lately, I’m back in California for 48 hours for 2 HUGE events, so I’ve been extra busy. BUT to make it up to you all, there will soon be a downpour of posts from said 48 hours.
