I just received our photos back from our @flytographer session in Athens and I cannot get over them! As most of you know, I’ve been a huge fan forever now and hire a Flytographer wherever we go from LA to Greece, even sometimes here in New York!

Booking with Flytographer during your travels ensures you’ll have high-quality, professional photos to cherish forever. Their photographers are locals who know the best spots and can capture authentic moments, giving you memories that go beyond typical tourist snapshots. Plus, it’s a great way to include everyone in the photos instead of relying on selfies or asking strangers to take pictures. Excited to give you guys a code: STROLLERCITY50 for $50 off time customers valid until 12/31/24 so you can experience the magic of Flytographer.

When I first reached out to @elsewhere.io about my kids spring break trip, the only thing I had in mind was the destination….Greece 🇬🇷. When booking a trip with Elsewhere they connect you to a local expert that will help plan everything. My guide Albert based here in Greece strongly urged me towards Paros and Naxos islands rather than your usual Santorini and Mykonos, because given the time of year and telling him our likes and dislikes while traveling, he thought we would like these two better and I have to say I’m so glad he pushed me towards these magical islands.

Albert was available 24/7 throughout this entire trip and I can’t get over how everything was so seamlessly planned for us. I truly could not have planned this trip myself. When you book a trip through Elsewhere you can also feel good knowing your trip has a positive impact as they are a values driven company dedicated to ethical and sustaniable travel. In fact, for every trip booked through Elsewhere, they will plant 10 trees with their partner Eden Project. This Greece trip has been a trip of a lifetime and I am forever grateful to Elsewhere.

GRWM Greece Edition 🇬🇷! You know when you’re leaving for a trip and start to panic about not having enough options to bring with you?! Well, that was me last week and I’m quite shocked how this last minute purchase turned out! I found this suit on Amazon which arrived hours before we were leaving, coverup I grabbed off the rack from the @hm here in Athens, didn’t even try it on, and shoes from @zara which Siella has officially taken over 😂. Sunnies are @zimmermann! Happy Friday friends 🫶🏼

Postcards from Paros! 🇬🇷

Hopped on a 7:30am ferry ⛴️ from Athens -> Paros and landed in paradise four hours later. We checked into the super chic @coveparos lounged by the pool, beach, and then headed to @siparos for the most delicious dinner! It’s only day 1 in Paros and we are already in love with this cute town! Big thank you to @elsewhere.io for suggesting this gem of an island!

In our Greek 🇬🇷 era….first stop Athens! We ate our weight in Greek salads, walked ourselves up to the Acropolis, through Plaka, strolled through the National Gardens, saw the changing of the guards, and witnessed the craziest orange sky and turns out it was actually sand coming up from the Sahara desert! @elsewhere.io planned the best itinerary for us to see everything this city has to offer! We are completely in love!

@glamsquad to the rescue! We had an insane weekend of parties and packing, and while I try to do it all myself like my daughter’s hair, I’ve learned it’s just easier to have Glamsquad do it. Saturday morning all three of us had blowouts, were done at the same time, and ready for our party! Glamsquad revolutionizes the beauty industry by bringing top-notch hair, makeup, and nail services directly to your doorstep. Excited to share my amazing code Brianne for $20 off first time users and Brianne15 for $15 off returning clients!

Giving the gift of an experience is something we always forget exists! On @groupon you can search from thousands of deals on experiences right in your city to gift to others, experience as a family or even treat yourself to. From spas to restaurants to immersive experiences in your area, they have something fun for everyone. I just purchased the NYC City Pass from Groupon where you can explore 95+ things to do here, and have to say it was a pretty amazing experience, not to mention the discount was even better. Keep this in mind for Mother’s Day this year, as you begin the gift search, always remember the gift of experiences is the gift that keeps on giving. #GrouponPartner

A full recap of our stay at @miravalberkshires this past weekend! Gemma and I had best few days, mostly unplugged and bonding. We were both so impressed by the dining experiences each day from healthy breakfasts to farm to table dinners. I also had a chance to escape and enjoy the spa with a Dennis Gross facial which was beyond, but also a Sweet Slumber 80 minute massage that might have been the best massage I’ve ever had in my life! We were sad to say goodbye, but looking forward to the next family week! 💕 @miravalresorts

Gemma and I just got back from a few days at @miravalberkshires and it was just what we needed. Miraval hosted their first ever “Family Connection Week”, where they invited children to experience the property (ages 8+) with a full list of wellbeing offerings each day from hikes to pasta making classes! It was an incredible getaway for the both of us. Seriously - if your kids happen to still have spring break this week, you need to hop in your car and head to the Berkshires to experience this! I’m already dreaming about my visit back! 🤌🏻

#JergensPartner | Super excited to announce that the kids and I will be part of @jergensus Mother’s Day campaign! We shot a few weeks back in our Hamptons home with the most amazing crew. We shot all throughout the house, Cooper even made a guest appearance. My favorite part was our spa set up using Jergens Original Scent which is the iconic cherry almond scent! It’s the best moisturizer as it absorbs quickly into the skin and never leaves a sticky feeling. Overall, an incredible day! Stay tuned for the final cut! 🎥
