Hidden Gem!!!
Last weekend my husband and I went to Cape May for an anniversary getaway. We usually go to Miami to celebrate our anniversary but this time we decided to do something different, and we came across Cape May in New Jersey. The drive from NYC to Cape May was three hours. It was a great little road trip with the hubs; listening to music and having great conversations along the way. The moment we arrived at Cape May we knew we were going to have a great getaway and it was going to be a different experience altogether. We booked The Virginia hotel, which was a real gem. It is a beautiful Victorian house and our room was so lovely. We even had a balcony (perfect for our daily complimentary breakfast). The beach was so beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing. We paid for a beach cabana which was a great idea because we had our own little nook on the beach. I wore my white vintage bathing suit from forever 21 (top 14.99 and high bottoms 14.99) with a blue Kimono from forever 21 (24.99). My first night out we decided to eat at the Ebbitt Room. For the night out I wore wide leg pants from forever21 ($19.99), a crop top also from forever 21 ($9.99) with brown sandals that I bought from H&M ($39.99), and finished the whole look with a tuxedo blazer from H&M ($34.99). This outfit was perfect for the beautiful cool night in Cape May. On our second day we to checked out some interesting things that the town had to offer. We went to the lighthouse, and at the beach by the light house there was a bunker that was built during world war 2 that was fascinating to see. I love history so it was nice to see something that was over 70 years still standing. I wore a thin sleeveless black shirt from H&M ($9.99) and blue high waisted shorts also from H&M. I decided to wear nude string sandals that I bought from Lulus for ($21.99). After the light house we went to Plum Beach farm, which was in the same town that lot of the local restaurants use their ingredients from. It was relaxing and nice to walk around the farm just looking at the chickens and pigs, and all the vegetables and fruits. After the farm I changed my outfit and wore shorts from h&m ($12.99) and a silk sleeveless shirt also from H&M ($17.99), which I actually got on discount for ($4.99) and some comfortable leather heels also from H&M ($39.99). We went to a beach called Sunset Beach; an amazing beach for watching sunsets. When we came back to the room I changed my shoes to black Vince Camuto shoes that I got from Macy's on sale last year ($39.99), and added a black blazer, which changed the whole outfit by giving me a more appropriate look for dinner at the Blue Pig Tavern. I had an amazing time in Cape May, and I will definitely come back. I highly recommend the hotel and all the restaurants that I visited this weekend.
