After three years of talking about taking a couples trip together over games nights, dinner parties, and picnics, Olivia & I were determined to get our guys out of the City and make it happen this year! Since we both live New York, we wanted a destination with sun where we could unwind from the bustle, but also close enough so the guys wouldn’t have to take any time off from work. So… when Vineyard Vines suggested a couples getaway to Cape Cod, Massachusetts – we were absolutely thrilled with the idea!

THE VINEYARD VINES STORY
Best known for their smiling pink whale, to me Vineyard Vines is a quintessential staple of northeast prep-leisure style. (Haha totally made up prep-leisure, but I’m really liking the sound of it for my weekend suitcase 😆) Founded on Martha’s Vineyard by brothers Shep & Ian when they left their desk jobs to start making ties that represented the Good Life, Vineyard Vines designs classic pieces for your closet that you can wear at any age. I am in love with their collared shirt dresses for me and performance button downs for men. This summer you will find them pool side at the Chatham Bars Inn, as they have an adorable pop-up shack to style you for your weekend away.
Since Vineyard Vines embodies the Cape Cod lifestyle, they took the lead on our visit & planned a dream…

Where SHOULD WE STAY?
When time is short… the distance from your room to the beach should be too!
A member of the Leading Hotels of the World, the Chatham Bars Inn is an iconic oceanfront 25-acre resort makes you think Everyday Should Feel This Good. With those greeting you dressed in Vineyard Vines and a smile, you’ll be shuttled to your cottage in a private car provided by Lexus. Then say goodbye to your shoes as you spend most of your stay with a watermelon margarita in hand at the beach, pool, or next to you as you nap under your cabana.
