My Current Wish List

My current wish list isn’t very long, let’s just say I indulged myself this past holiday. I played Santa Clause and of course I bought my Valentine’s Day gifts early, why you may ask? Because with the pandemic, shipping could be an issue and if you order with enough time, there shouldn’t be any disappointments.Continue reading “My Current Wish List”

What I bought Myself for Christmas

I don’t know about you, but I finished all of the Christmas shopping weeks in advance of Xmas. I also bought myself my own Christmas presents, because who doesn’t do that? I’ll be honest though, I live in the same old clothes day-in-day-out. I am storing everything for when this pandemic is over and IContinue reading “What I bought Myself for Christmas”

Wish List

My wish list isn’t long and most importantly it’s budget friendly. Having a background in luxury sales, I understand fabrics and style. Since I was a little girl, I scoured the fashion magazines for clues as to what made a woman’s style tre’s chic. It’s the little things, and before you leave your house, takeContinue reading “Wish List”

Everything’s Coming-Up Pearls

Lately I’ve been obsessed with earrings, as my sister Wendy say’s “Your jewelry walks into a room with you, you put your handbag down, but you’re always wearing your jewelry.” I recently noticed a trend that pearls seem to be the focus, pearls are always in style, but lately have taken a front row seatContinue reading “Everything’s Coming-Up Pearls”

Obsession, Hoops

I’ve been obsessed with hoop earrings and the funny part is that I never thought they looked good on me, but I’m starting to come around. There are a variety of hoops available, from 14k to recycled materials. We selected a few of our favorites. Which is your favorite? We found several contenders, from Cuyana,Continue reading “Obsession, Hoops”

Small Accessories

I have been shopping with Cuyana for years, I love that they use sustainable materials, something just isn’t right about wearing anything too flashy these days and I consider Cuyana affordable luxury.

Fashion Sneakers

I’ve personally have never been into sneakers, but having developed a foot-problem during the pandemic, I’ve become obsessed with them. Seems I can’t wear slippers during the day or for long periods of time while working from home. Instagram seems to have my number because the adds I see are catered to sneakers and IContinue reading “Fashion Sneakers”

Lounge Pants of the Moment

It’s usually not acceptable to run around wearing sweatpants or lounge pants unless you’re off to the gym, a run or about to take a much deserved nap. But since the pandemic has been on-going and most of us work from home, what has become acceptable is a sweat pant that is adaptable with theContinue reading “Lounge Pants of the Moment”

The Acceptable Scrunchy

Everyone remembers the scene in Sex & the City where Carry and Berger had the scrunchy argument, Carry was right at the time, no self-respecting woman would be caught dead wearing a scrunchy. But times have changed, women now more than ever are taking better care of their hair. With the pandemic in full-swing weContinue reading “The Acceptable Scrunchy”

The Paisley Shawl

I never thought of myself as a lover of prints, unless we were talking about YSL leopard. But I fell-in-love with John Singer Sargent’s paintings of his sisters and niece draped in paisley shawls. A few pieces I am in-love with are from Etro fall 2020. Naturally these pieces are out of my current budget,Continue reading “The Paisley Shawl”

Liking darker colors,Continue reading “Satin Poplin Off-the-Should Tunic @Tibi”

Quote of The Day

I have various fashion/beauty blogs I read on a daily basis, let’s just say I’m obsessed with great ideas. I look to women in general for inspiration. SJP comes to mind, and I’ll always read her interviews and while doing that this morning I came across a quote that speaks truth. When I’m getting dressed,Continue reading “Quote of The Day”

Amy, RunAround Chic Muse

I came across my next muse during my Sunday morning walk. I’ve seen several chic women that morning but none of them seemed friendly until Amy walked in and commented on the shoes I was trying on. Well we both mutually commented on the shoes we were trying on. The conversation flowed easily, but that’s whatContinue reading “Amy, RunAround Chic Muse”
