My boyfriend and I were in Annapolis, Maryland last weekend for his sister's wedding (he's actually still there spending more time with his family), and I had the absolute greatest time seeing and exploring the city.
We don't have standalone Alex and Ani stores in Ohio. The only place I had really seen them at was department stores where they don't always have the best selection, so I had never jumped on the bracelet bandwagon. Well... this Alex and Ani store in downtown Annapolis had the cutest selection and I walked out with a little starter stack - whoops! More on that to come later this week.
I found this pink anchor hanging inside The Lucky Knot... I strongly considered prying it off of the wall. They had a great assortment of Vineyard Vines and some Annapolis coordinate t-shirts that were the absolute cutest.
After much searching I stumbled upon this little Starbucks hidden beneath a hotel. It was decorated to absolute Christmas perfection - honestly, the whole town was!
I knew I had to stop by the Pink Crab during my visit; I've followed them on Instagram for years! They had the most gorgeous mural of Annapolis on the wall above the counter. This is just one half of it, but trust me when I say it is even more stunning in person.
Paws Pet Boutique was one of the best stops I made during my stroll around Downtown Annapolis. My two dogs are completely spoiled, but I love finding fun, new toys for them... to destroy. Paws had an adorable assortment of toys, collars, and gourmet treats!
My dogs were thrilled when they found their gifts from Paws hiding in the tree yesterday. Cooper has been dragging the elf all around the house by one leg - poor guy!
How cute is this tiny sailboat I stumbled upon?! Looking back, I should have bought it. It matches my room perfectly AND was 25% off... literally kicking myself as I type.
Maryland's State House sits up on a hill and is the center of downtown Annapolis. I'm a sucker for homes/buildings with a wreath in every window, so I practically swooned when I first walked up and saw the Christmas decor!
Fun Fact(s): Maryland's State House oldest State House in the nation that is still in legislative use AND it served as the capitol of the United States for about a year between 1783-1784.
More to come (from the wedding) tomorrow!
