BUDGET TRAVEL
www.budgettravel.com
I got my first freelance assignment for Budget Travel and recently started writing for them again.
CONDE NAST TRAVELER
www.concierge.com
My former employer and a good resource for trips to popular cities.
NEW YORK MAGAZINE
www.nymag.com
My Manhattan fix. I love the Gossip Girl recap on Daily Intel, the restaurant reviews (obviously), and the travel section (which I contribute to somewhat regularly).
TRAVEL & LEISURE
www.travelandleisure.com
A decade ago, I remember reading Travel & Leisure and thinking, wouldn’t it be cool to be a travel writer?
THE NEW YORK TIMES
www.nytimes.com
Lately, it’s just depressing reading about the world, but I still like the travel section.
WALL STREET JOURNAL
blogs.wsj.com/middleseat
Matt Phillips writes all about the travel industry. I also love to ogle the paper’s House of the Day.
DAILY CANDY
www.dailycandy.com
Keeps me in the loop on newsy openings in Dallas and New York. |
TASTING TABLE
www.tastingtable.com
I don’t live in New York, but that doesn’t mean I can’t read about the food scene there. And the newbie site, that’s like Daily Candy for foodies, is expanding its scope.
TABLET HOTELS
www.tablethotels.com
A reliable mix of classic hotels and trendy newcomers. One of my go-to spots for scoping out where to stay in destinations around the world.
SMITTEN KITCHEN
www.smittenkitchen.com
More often than not, I just look at the yummy pictures. Mmm.
EPICURIOUS
www.epicurious.com
I have a few dishes that I make over and over again, but when I’m looking for something different, I scour this site for recipes from Gourmet and Bon Appetit.
BUY REQUEST
www.nkbuyrequest.com
I met Nancy while researching an article for Marie Claire on spring cleaning. Not only does Nancy have great personal style, but she has an ability to help you identify your own style.
RENEE ROULEAU
www.reneerouleau.com
This Dallas based aesthetician has the most marvelous products, specialized based on your skin type. My go-to facial spot whenever my skin is feeling tired. |
