Sequins and Tulle to Ring in the New Year, You Should Do It!

Well the new year is almost upon us. I hope everyone has some festive events planned. I am keeping it pretty mellow this year and having drinks with some close friends. Life has been quite hectic as of late. I got involved with a blogger collective and changed jobs so needless to say I have been feeling a bit frazzled.

Throwback Thursday (a day early) and some Christmas Cookies with King Arthur Flour

I am sharing this Throwback Thursday a day early as this Thursday is Christmas Eve and this way you have a whole day to make these cookies in time for the holiday. Last year was the first year I did this, I thought it would be complicated—like you had to be Martha Stewart or a professional baker to pull this off. But it was easier then I thought.

A Mango Winter Coat, A J Crew Sweater and a Fun Winter Look

I have been wanting to pick up a non body con coat for quite some time now. I have a couple of winter coats that are form fitting which I do like, but it can make wearing blazers and bulky sweaters a bit difficult. So when I spied this extra long double breasted man tailored coat at Mango, I knew I had to have it.

Stella McCartney Resort 2016 for Lookbook Friday

One can see and embrace the sheer joy of textiles in Stella McCarney’s resort collection for 2016. With a vaguely nostalgic stance the garments in this line up combine the minimalist relaxed fit approach of simple streamlined cuts with generous draping and unexpected “embellishments” of sudden swaths of cloth. Balancing this more austere aesthetic are retro aline dresses, swingy tea length frocks, flowing maxis

Cynthia Rowley Beauty The Game Face Eyeshadow Palette

Happy Holidays to me, oh boy another excuse to whip out the plastic. But it is challenging to work in Soho and not shop. Last week I got together with fellow blogger Renata who took photos of me for this post. We met outside the building I work in, and decided to do a bit of window shopping before heading to dinner at The Dutch.

Burberry Resort 2016 for Lookbook Friday

Opulence, elegance and plenty of sex appeal can be found in Burberry’s Resort collection for 2016. Although hemlines are long, the silhouettes are body conscious and with many of the pieces featuring skin revealing shear looks, little is left to the imagination. A few weeks ago I came upon a British TV show about “youngish” very wealthy women.
