Spring’s Eden, Anthropologie, and a Light but Effective Hand Cream—Perfect for Summer

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]I[/dropcap] like many in our population, suffer from dry skin and even had this problem as a kid. Seems this is something that funs in our family and can be rather a pain to deal with. But luckily along with antioxidants, using hand cream and body lotion and oils keeps this problem at bay. During the summer months the problem is not quite as intense

Chloé Resort 2016 for Lookbook Friday

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]T[/dropcap] he Chloé aesthetic is certainly my aesthetic. I love the independent yet girly vibe of the brand. And the Resort Collection for 2016 fully embraces this aesthetic and adds a new bohemian twist to the looks. From the over-sized flare jeans to the studded man tailored trousers to the flowing eyelet dresses and repeated use of leopard print, the line straddles the fence between boho chic and London Mod Carneby Street style.

Kiehl’s Sun-Free Self-Tanner—a Light, Creamy, Pleasant Smelling Formula With Noticeable Results

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]Y[/dropcap]Yes summer has finally arrived here in the north east and that means we all want to glow with a “healthy” looking tan. And we all know that a tan via the sun is anything but healthy. Of course today we have many choices in achieving a sun-kissed look without the aid of the sun. The two most popular are spray tans, and self-tanners.

Satu Maaranen and the Spring-Summer Collection 2015 for Lookbook Friday

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]I[/dropcap] n this age of fast fashion it is hard sometimes to remember that fashion can be, and is often considered a work of art. We all fall prey to coveting the latest trends and lusting after the who’s who in designer brands. And yes this quite a guilty pleasure of mine...

The Bar Cart — a Stylish Don Draper Staple to Dress Up Your Home

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]I[/dropcap] remember as a kid when my grandmother watched her soap operas that it seemed everyone on the show owned a bar cart. They were always getting all riled up and storming over to the bar carts, quickly dashing in a jigger or two of booze and downing it, eyes blazing as they gripped the empty glass. And I remember thinking “we don’t have one of those” alas the bar cart trend did not carry over

A Zara Bag, a Pair of Aldo Booties and a Lovely Day at the Shore

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]L[/dropcap] ast week I wrote about this lovely pink suede bag that I picked up at the Zara store in Soho. Well here it is in action, I love this bag for spring and summer. I can pair it with a pair of jeans and a cropped pleather jacket like I did here, or I could pair it with a dress and heels. This bag looks super luxe but is super affordable at $120. On this day my friend and I headed to a town

Zadig & Voltaire “Arty, Rock and Gipsy” for Lookbook Friday

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]O[/dropcap]K, I just may have been living under a rock, but up until a few days ago I had not heard of the fashion brand Zadig and Voltaire. And get this—there is Zadig & Voltaire store a few towns away from where I live, in a mall! Um what? Seriously where have I been? Perhaps it is because Zadig & Voltaire are a french based company and originated in Europe,

Charles & Ron and the Mediterranean Fashion Prize, Kudos to a Great Team!

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]I[/dropcap] love when hard work is rewarded, and when talent is recognized. And today it seems that fashion is celebrating a new era in which the idea of being “inclusive” and welcoming is the new way of doing business. OK, I may be a wee bit naive in this belief, but there are so many ways for new designers to make their mark and get noticed in this day and age, and supportive organizations that reward young, hard working, designers is certainly one of the best ways to get noticed as an up and coming designer.

A Dusty Pink Satchel From Zara and a Lovely Way to Say Hello to Summer

[dropcap custom_class="normal"]W[/dropcap] hat is a girl to do when the seasons change? Why buy a new bag of course! And when I saw this pink suede satchel at Zara my heart skipped a beat. I assumed that it would be out of my price range but I was happy to discover it was only $119, not a bad price for genuine suede. The dusty blush color and texture of the suede makes this a stand out stunner for sure.
