Surprise! I actually went somewhere. I missed the entire fall season outside of New York (not that we had one) and it’s not quite beach weather any more, but it was still a nice trip.
Photos and thoughts on fashion, beauty, tech + city living.

Welcome to Letters from the City, a lifestyle photoblog.
My name is Alex and I have been blogging in some form or another since 1998. I’m a former Manhattanite now living the quieter life in Brooklyn. I like outerwear and red lipstick.
When I was younger, I was let loose in a GAP Kids one too many times, resulting in many of the fashion choices you see here in my photos. I also read, traveled, and took cooking and art classes. Art eventually led me around to photography, and to this day I do enjoy a good brunch.
Thank you for visiting! I hope you'll stay a while and get to know me. Learn More →
The beach in the winter is an interesting place to be. I am sad we skipped fall again this year, that seems to be the trend!
Chic on the Cheap
I am also super unenthused about the no fall situation since it’s our best season in this city (summer is way too smelly). Winter at the beach is okay but the problem is the wind! If it’s too windy then it’s far too cold ☃️
