Hi. We hope you had a good weekend. We start off each week with a series of photos – usually sent to us by you. But this week we decided to post a few of our own pictures from our Instagram accounts. We hope you enjoy them.

We’d love for you to send us a picture you took for next week’s Picturesque.

It’s almost Fashion Week in NYC which doesn’t mean a whole lot in my life aside from getting to spend some time with one of my best friends who comes into town for work and occasionally spotting groups of women in fabulous shoes. However, I thought it would be a fun time to share these virtual tarot cards courtesy of Vogue Italia.

Hello. We hope you had a wonderful long weekend. Every week we gather some images to take a peek at what you have been doing and seeing. Thanks to everyone who sent in pictures!
Jessica – Italy
I just got back from a trip to Italy with the family I nanny for. This is the view from our villa in Radda, Tuscany
And in Venice…
and Rome.

Catherine – Upstate New York
Indian Ladder Farms, Altamont, NY – Macintosh apple harvest not looking so hot this year (mostly because of the “hot” February and March temperatures) but the orchards are still pretty and the cider is delicious.
Voorheesville, NY – My favorite corn field on the drive to my grandma’s house. The owner lives next door in a shabby little house. His land is worth millions but he’ll never sell it because he loves it. Isn’t that wonderful?
Again in Voorheesville, NY – Tree climbing at my grandma’s. She’s got this beautiful birch tree with this nasty tree scar (trees have feelings too!).
Lake George, NY – 4 p.m. sunlight glimmer.

David – Cleveland, Ohio
Watching trick flying at the Cleveland Air Show from Lake Erie.

I really struggle when it comes to getting up in the morning. Always have. I’ve just never been a morning person. But with summer rapidly approaching fall, I’m finding myself motivated to get on a better sleep schedule – and perhaps even create a morning routine. Wouldn’t that be novel?!

I was recently listening to the “Try something new for 30 days” TED.com talk by Matt Cuts, in which he explains that new habits can form in 30 days time. He talks about how giving something a go for thirty days enables you to actually become the kind of person who _______ (insert whatever it is you aspire to), instead of just admiring that trait/activity in others. So that’s my plan. Thirty days, here I come.

What would you try for 30 days? Have any tips for getting up in the morning?

On Monday evening after work a few friends and I (dressed all in white) hauled four folding chairs and a folding table to the corner of 73rd Street and Amsterdam Ave. to meet up with a small group of fellow participants in New York’s second Dîner en Blanc. From there we were led to the event’s secret location to set-up for an elegant, outdoor picnic in white. Keeping the location secret until the last minute is one of the defining characteristics of the Dîner en Blanc, which started in Paris several years ago but is now held in several cities around the world.
We were told to be prepared for a 10-15 minute walk with all of our picnic supplies and suspected that we might find ourselves smack in the middle of Central Park’s Sheep Meadow. While Central Park would have been a lovely location, we were quite pleased to instead be led to Lincoln Center.
Once our group arrived, we – along with over three thousand others – set up our table and unpacked the plates, glasses, silverware and food we’d brought along (no paper or plastic allowed).
We drank some wine, snapped a ton of pictures and made friends with our neighbors.
After the sun had set, and people had finished eating, the music was turned up and a bit of a dance party ensued.
C’était une belle nuit et je suis impatient de participer de nouveau l’an prochain!
Hi. How was your weekend? I took a delightful trip upstate to visit friends. Again, we have a few photos to get the week started. Thanks for your submissions!
