Hey Guys,
I have recently taken the time to capture more of my OOTD (outfit of the day) so that I can share them with you. These kind of posts are always fun and allow me to style pieces rather than just show you clothing that I purchased in a haul video. I am going to do my best to share these type of posts at least once a month or once every other month. It will depend on how many blog posts I get up and if the weather is willing to cooperate or not (as well as if Colin is willing to take the pictures lol). While I love fashion, I am not standing outdoors in the winter with no jacket on just to get a shot. So as of right now, while the weather is warm and the days are longer plan to see more of these type of posts.
Colin's sister came home to visit from L.A. so we decided to do something fun that weekend. We went to Newport Vineyards in Middletown, RI. I didn't think to take any pictures of the grounds but wanted to share my experience with you guys as well as my fashion for the day.
Colin and I are huge wine lovers and attend tastings as much as we can. I've been to a few wineries in MA and think that they are such a fun day trip. I went to Newport Vineyards a couple of years ago and have wanted to go back ever since. I really enjoyed the wine there and the vineyards are beautiful. They have a couple of restaurants onsite. They also have a brewery for people who are more into beer (or would like to check out both)!
It was the perfect day to go and be outside. The weather was in the low 80's and sunny. We did a wine tasting first where we got to try 6 wines. It did get a little hot in the sun doing the tastings but luckily they had canopies to stand under. We grabbed lunch at the Taproot Brewing Company which is part of the same building as the winery. I liked that you could purchase flights to sample different wines/beers however, I wish I went to Brix Restaurant instead. They just had more offerings food wise. One side note...if you are ordering the cheese board at either places; 3 choices of cheese legit gives you 3 little pieces of cheese lol. The last time I was here I remember getting more but things have changed a lot since then. We were really surprised when our cheese plate came for the 3 of us to share. It only included 3 little pieces of cheese with some jam, nuts, and bread. Don't get me wrong; it was good but the serving was enough for maybe one person and definitely not three. On the other hand, the Bacon and Taproot Beer Cheese dip was amazing. Overall, it was a great day and I highly suggest checking out this winery if you are in MA /RI or visiting the area!
