weekly wrap up + brooklyn invites

I’m so excited because today, my dad is coming to town, and we get to have a little dad & daughter time in the city while the sun is still out. So I’m leaving early to meet him after work. Before I go, I wanted to share these beautiful invitations that Kelli Anderson created for the Brooklyn Philharmonic. I love the brownstone-shaped sleeve and the lettering she chose. It’s all very historic Brooklyn and captures the look and feel of one of my favorite areas in town. Between this invite and the weather outside, I think it’s time to get out and explore my borough a little more. Click here to check out more of Kelli’s work online. Until Monday, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! xo, grace
