I had the best time in Georgetown this week with the Tuckernuck team. It was a quick, 24-hour trip but it felt like I was there for a week. I arrived Thursday afternoon and co-hosted an event with Sarah at the new Tuckernuck store. If you’re in the DC area, make sure you get to the store (1053 Wisconsin Ave) soon… I’m obsessed. Even if you’re not in the shopping mood (who are you?!) go to meet the Tuckernuck team. I love every single one of them!!! The team has grown so much since I’ve known them, so it was nice to get to meet a lot of the new members. We went out to dinner after the event and ate all the food while catching up and laughing. I didn’t even realize that it was midnight by the time we left!!
Friday was the best weather in the world. To be completely honest, I’ve never considered living in DC. After moving away after graduation, I left and barely looked back. Even when I’ve visited, it never really had that pull. Yesterday, though, was so incredibly gorgeous that I legitimately considered moving. It pulled on my heartstrings in such a big way. I had a moment of clarity where I realized how lucky I was to go to such an amazing school in such a unique town.
Both of the days I was in town were also travel days, with many hours sitting on a train. So I went for my go-to: sweater, jeans, and flats. Throwing on a Barbour for walking around town was also a no brainer.
Tuckernuck also has a sale going on right now that I had to mention… 20% off your entire order when you spend $200 or more with code “FRIENDS20” at checkout!!
This monogrammed weekender has gone on almost all of my recent trips.
My favorite flats in the entire world. SO comfortable + a great price point.

I wish I was able to go to that event! I live in the DC area and love Georgetown so much! Sounds like you had a great time!

Where did you stay and eat while you were in Georgetown?
The Avery in Georgetown! It’s such a cute boutique hotel!
Every time I see one of your posts, I want to hop onto a train and head to New England. Washington D.C. is also high on my list of places to visit. I bet it is beautiful in autumn. Checking out Tuckernuck now!

DC was sooooo beautiful this week!
Carly, this is a great post as always! You’re so adorable and easy to love! Also, loooove your photography! That photo with the leaves in the air is such a great shot and amazing photo of you!
Thank you! Sophia (from Tuckernuck) worked her magic!!!
So pretty Carly! It was a dream come true meeting you and Kiel and Sarah (and once again at dinner haha!) Your posts are so great and the photography is amazing. Have a great rest of your stay in Georgetown!
It was so awesome to come to the Tuckernuck event! I’ve been following your blog for years and I can’t believe I got to meet you in person. I hope you had a blast in DC!
So pretty! It sounds like you guys had fun! Would be awesome if you ever made it out to do an event in Seattle 😉
How does the sizing run on that jacket? I want to order a personalized one but need to confirm sizing. I wanted to wear sweaters underneath. Do you feel it’s roomy or runs smaller?
I think they run true to size, but you can definitely go up as well for an extra roomy fit. (I get the US2)
The backdrop is so beautiful and these photos are so gorgeous! -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey’s
What is the best way to clean your Tuckernuck bag? I know the site says spot clean but the one side brushed up against my car which was a tad dirty at the time and now has black marks. It needs more than a spot clean!!
Hmmm not sure! Mine has blue on the back from rubbing against new jeans one day… But here’s what I found online: http://www.goodhousekeeping.com/home/cleaning/q-and-a/a20934/canvas-bag-cleaning-jul03/
Your beanie and monogrammed duffel bag are my all-time faves! You look so pretty in every pic.

Heading to DC/Georgetown for an interview in a few weeks… super excited! Loved reading your reflections and about your admiration for the city!

If it wasn’t for how cold it got up there, I would already live in the north! I love how vibrant it is during the fall!
