I haven’t purchased a straw bag yet. I can’t decide on a shoulder bag or a hand carry. The photos motivate me to get a shoulder bag, but the handle version is cute too. I also marvel at these women, who manage to always look chic and pulled together, I wonder sometimes if I lookContinue reading “The Straw Bag”

It’s All About The Skin
I’ve been obsessed with my skin lately. I’ve been using my Vichy Peptide Ampoules, my Medik8 Peptide Oil, and I recently bought Skinceuticals’ Glycolic Cleanser. I tried my new Jet Lag Mask by Summer Fridays last night and love it. My skin woke up glowing, hydrated and I swear firmer too. However, I splashed coldContinue reading “It’s All About The Skin”
The Striped Sweater – Part 2
Looks like the striped sweater is here to stay, it has become a wardrobe staple for all seasons. I just found one that I feel I can wear without looking too commercial. I kind of want the Navy and white striped sweater too, but I don’t have anything that would really go with it andContinue reading “The Striped Sweater – Part 2”
What Women Are Wearing Now
All of these women are stylish, inspiration for the rest of us. Ladies, it’s time to shop my closet. I’ve spent the last two years updating myself, and I start going back into the office on May 3rd. Grant it I’ll only be going in two days a week, for starters, then after August toContinue reading “What Women Are Wearing Now”
It’s All About The Hair
I love Amyris by Francis Kurkdjian. I always receive compliments, especially in elevators when wearing the fragrance. I decided to invest in the scented hair mist, a lovely way to budget in fragrance without breaking the bank. I also suffer from fine and thinning hair. I purchased the David Mallett Volume Powder and decided toContinue reading “It’s All About The Hair”
Summer Fridays
I have been preparing to work from the office since the pandemic began. For now it will be two days a week and lately the focus has shifted to my skin, especially since I haven’t been wearing a lot of makeup. It’s all about healthier skin these days. I discovered this new skincare brand, SummerContinue reading “Summer Fridays”
Obsessed with David Yurman
Ever since I laid eyes on the new marketing campaign, I have been obsessed with David Yurman’s classics. I pre-ordered the cable earrings below and just placed an order for the sculped cable ring. I am super excited. Why? Because it’s a matching set that I will be able to wear with my nicer sweatsContinue reading “Obsessed with David Yurman”
Going Back to Basics
If the ad campaign with Scarlett Johansson doesn’t entice you to buy David Yurman classics, honestly I don’t know what will. There are new items in the collections, but I’ve developed an obsession with David Yurman cable. I just placed an order for these little beauties. I plan on wearing them with my sweats, IContinue reading “Going Back to Basics”
Thinking pink
I’ve had pink on the brain since my beautiful niece came into the world. My sisters and I continuously put her in pink, why, because she’s our little pink rose. My mother used to dress me in pink and for years I shied away from it. Now, I’m all into it. I still don’t haveContinue reading “Thinking pink”
Style From The Streets of Milan, New York & Copenhagen
I love everything about these stylish women. I’m tempted to add more sneakers to my growing collection, tempted to invest in another designer handbag. Wistful for a piece of leopard. If I had a mood board, these photos would be on it. Here’s to running around chic…..
The Beauty Roundup
It’s been months since I confess made a beauty purchase. I’ve been so wrapped up in adding clothing to my wardrobe that I forgot all about beauty. Since the world, meaning my corner of the world is getting ready to open up more, like having to start going back into the office on a part-timeContinue reading “The Beauty Roundup”
What Have You Bought, Lately?
I’ve been adding pieces to my wardrobe, items I can wear with my leggings and boots. These are just a few of the additions to my closet. I did buy the top right blouse in white and another oversized black dress shirt from a brand called “Frankie”, plus a long sleeveless blazer that can beContinue reading “What Have You Bought, Lately?”
Reading & Binge Watching
The story about Anna Delvy has fascinated me since I first read about it in early 2019. I read pretty much every article there was to read and could not wait until this book came out. I just ordered it and it’s supposed to arrive on Thursday. I can see how people were taken inContinue reading “Reading & Binge Watching”
The Straw Bag
All last summer I was in search of the perfect straw bag for my summer dresses. I looked and I looked and could never find something I was really in-love with. I knew I wanted it to go over my shoulder, there were some nice fair-trade versions I’ve seen at the hardware store and Wholefoods,Continue reading “The Straw Bag”
It’s Still Cold Outside
I’m glad it’s still cold outside, it justifies my most recent purchase, a Faux Fur by Milano Furs. I first heard of this brand because of @Danividas. She posted an Insta-story where she was dressing, using this gorgeous fur gilet. I of course had to have one as well, but I ordered a black gilet,Continue reading “It’s Still Cold Outside”
