This was the start of East Hampton weekend travel story…at the wrong bus stop for the Hampton Jitney waiting for best of friend AM to drive to rescue me! (BTW, I didn’t know that the “Jitney” was a bus until this trip might I add…oops…I took the high end Hampton Ambassador Jitney from JFK to the end of Long Island just to make my first bus ride in years as smooth as possible??).
My trip to BFF AM’s amazing East Hampton home was a comedy of errors to say the least but eventually I arrived at my self proclaimed new home away from home – East Hampton.
As it turns out, it was one of the best weekends! A much needed weekend of R & R with AM, JE, MR, JR and their brood of children at AM and JE’s lovely inviting home. It was straight out of an episode of I Love Lucy….the women, collective, Lucy, and the men rolling their eyes like Ricky….late nights, lazy mornings, parties for lunch and dinner, attending store openings which naturally required the help of The Glam Squad, and most of all, time with women who have become like sisters to me over the years. Did I mention there were a ton of cute kids running around all weekend adding to the overall laughter and cheer.
Hope you enjoy this trip through my East Hampton weekend travels as much as I enjoyed living every moment…now off to find some veggies to eat for the few days to detox….:)
It is beyond flattering when your BFF loves your collections enough to use them in her own home..AM has the Quatrefoil Throw in Peacock Blue as well as the Gate Throw in Navy.
Glam Squad was a life saver for me AM, and MR! They took care of hair and make-up before we went to the big party of the weekend.
AM + JE’s good friends JW and WMJ threw a great lawn party at Moby’s, a restaurant in East Hampton…complete with good conversation, nice people, picnic tables and lots of rosé.
Final dinner party at AM’s house was a blast. We all chipped in and helped make a great dinner. We were joined PR, BS and JJ. So much fun catching up with everyone!
Here are some fun spots we visited:
ATM Pop Up – A pop up shop for the summer carrying chic clothing for men and women from designer Anthony Thomas Melillo
Clic – Cute clothing in owned by the woman who started Calypso home.
Club Monaco – New Club Monaco store in East Hampton which features a special line of one of a kind lace tops. Quite cute.
Moby’s – A casual dining spot with variety of American foods and some very big furniture in the back that kids can play on while adults are nearby.
Pierre’s – Delish restaurant for casual French classic food
Hope you enjoyed this travel recap! More on AM + JE’s lovely home to come.

That awning is gorgeous. And the open living room, dining room, kitchen is so airy and bright.
Looks like you had a great time!
Oh what fun! I just love the Hamptons but it would be lovely to stay with friends and soirée with the locals as you did. Thanks for sharing.
XOXO, Amy @ Jeans and a Tea
