Do you remember that episode of Sex and the City when Carrie’s friend Susan Sharon (with the husband “ON LONDON TIME!”) gave her a gorgeous cashmere scarf that Carrie deemed a cash”miracle” when she heard the price Susan paid for it? Well I had my own cash”miracle” this weekend I thought I’d share… I wasContinue reading “Cash”miracle””

I was in the market for a little jacket for the winter that I could wear casually – and something that I could easily wash in case of a spit up situation (a new concern to me as a new mommy). Well, I found this little gem at Old Navy and got it on saleContinue reading “LBJ (Little Black Jacket)”

Is everyone excited for New York Fashion Week to view Spring, 2012 collections? I am. Today was Day 3 of runway shows, so I thought I would share with you again the best website for Fashion Week coverage – click here. You can see still photos of shows, watch the recorded video, or a liveContinue reading “NYFW”

With the intensity of the heat this summer, my only escape (other than my heavily air conditioned office) has been the beach. We frequent a cozy little beach in Newport, RI during the summer so I knew I would need a great go-to maternity beach get-up. I of course would never go for just someContinue reading “Pregnant at the Beach”

One my favorite looks is a simpler outfit with a dynamic statement necklace – a look I’ve been sporting a lot lately! And by statement necklace, I mean a larger, eye-catching piece. These often colorful necklaces are usually best with an understated outfit so as not to look over-accessorized or overly matchy patchy. Here areContinue reading “Statement Necklaces”

So last night I finally removed my 2-week mani. I had enough of the nail growth “look” and went through the process of soaking my fingertips in straight acetone and the polish just started chipping off tiny piece by tiny piece (you can see it all at the bottom of the bowl). Overall, it tookContinue reading “2-week Mani, the Final Day”

Ok, so today is day 9 of my 2-week manicure and things look good, but I am starting to get disappointed. The tips of my nails are still perfect, you would think that I just got a mani. However, since it’s been over a week since I got my nails done, they have grown andContinue reading “2-week Mani, day 9”

Sunday afternoon my friend and I splurged on the new trend in nail polishing – a shellac manicure! They say it lasts 2 weeks without chipping, can that be true? We went (to Miniluxe in Newton) because we had a $10 off coupon but I’m thinking now it is completely worth every full-price penny. HereContinue reading “2-week Mani, day 1”

In honor of the first day of New York Fashion Week I thought I’d share the official Pantone colors of Spring, 2011. I can’t wait to incorporate these colors into my spring wardrobe. I particularly like honeysuckle, peapod, and regatta! I am thinking about outfits with both beeswax and lavendar, too – that would beContinue reading “NYFW”

I was pulling together the accessories for an upcoming winter wedding I’m attending, when I fell in love with my Sparkle Purse all over again… There’s just the right amount of sparkle to it and it’s the perfect size for a night on the town…it can hold a cell phone, lip gloss, Tide pen, andContinue reading “Ode to My Sparkle Purse”
