Moulin Rouge is coming to Broadway San Jose July 8, 2025. Get excited!

In order to kick off this exciting show coming to Broadway San Jose, they held A Sparkling Soiree to celebrate Moulin Rouge taking the stage in San Jose. Held at Left Bank Santana Row, this French, circus themed event included a signature drink, heavy appetizers, cookies, and fun! It was nice to meet those working on the show as well as fellow theater goers interested in helping to promote the event.

As you know, Moulin Rouge is a famous Broadway show which has won numerous awards and also has an award winning cast and crew. I am really excited to see the show in July!

Broadway San Jose hosts traveling Broadway Shows at the San Jose Center for the Performing Arts. This is a cool, mid-century modern venue with comfortable seats, amazing acoustics, and close proximity to plenty of parking and delicious restaurants. Attending a show with Broadway San Jose makes for the perfect night out! I highly recommend it.

So, if you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, or you plan to visit, be sure to catch Moulin Rouge July 8-13, 2025. Or, catch one or more of the other shows coming to San Jose this summer and next season!

You can learn more at BroadwaySanJose.com.

Can’t wait for to see Moulin Rouge! I hope you see it too!

Thanks for stopping by

Mocha dress for summer

Mocha Mousse is the color of 2025, so it’s only natural that I am drawn to this neutral hue. It is so easy to wear and can be styled throughout the year. Mocha really transcends season. Love that!

Speaking of transcending season, and wearing this mocha dress throughout the year, shoes and outerwear help it fit into the season. In the winter, this dress can be paired with knee boots and a coat. During the fall and spring months, this mocha dress can be worn with a light jacket or sweater, as well as a scarf. For the summer, it stands alone. The knit fabric is comfortable, and I am finding I can wear it any weather; at least here in California.

This mocha dress can also be worn casually, or to the office. I love a wardrobe piece I can wear any day of the week, work or fun! Love that!

I also happen to have this dress in black too. It is classic and versatile. Love!

How are you rocking mocha this summer season?

Thanks for stopping by!

Quick trip to Harrisburg

For Memorial Day weekend, we took a quick trip to Harrisburg. As the capitol of Pennsylvania, it has arts and of course, government buildings. It was fun to explore this time, since our last trip was a day trip and we were not able to see very much.

I loved seeing all the historical buildings, and if you ever head over to Harrisburg, make sure you get a tour of the capitol! It was dedicated in 1906 by Roosevelt. The architecture, and interior decor, are absolutely stunning.

Since it was a holiday, we missed out on the museum, but I know I will be back again later this summer, so hopefully I can see it then. If you are in the Harrisburg area, I highly recommend enjoying a meal at the Sturges Speakeasy. They have an amazing menu, the service is friendly and helpful, and the patrons are also friendly and chill. We really loved it! I enjoyed the salmon, and my daughter enjoyed the Noble Experiment which was a sandwich with blackened chicken, pickled red cabbage, and brie (which she loved), all on focaccia. Loved it!

Well, it was a quick trip so that’s it! Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO
