Kim Kardashian-West and Kate Moss made headlines this past week, when the two were seen together having a private tour of the Vatican. To be in Rome, although I would never go to Vatican City again, unless it was to go to the little Italian restaurant we discovered on our last trip.

A Love Affair With Turquoise
When my sisters and I were younger my mother had bought us a little turquoise set, which consisted of a necklace and a ring.

Obsession, Navy Noir by Victoria Beckham
I’ve been obsessed with navy eyeliners ever since I read Jennifer Alfano’s post many years ago about what she noticed on her last trip to Paris.

I’ve been trying to order the Suratt Beauty’s Nuit D Orage but theyContinue reading “Obsession, Navy Noir by Victoria Beckham”

You could say that Peony and I are Instagram friends, which is pretty cool.

La Femme Mystique
Vaginal dryness is a sensitive topic, almost considered taboo. However it’s an issue a lot of women go through and finding the right products that help us embrace pro-aging is paramount.

Shopping The Look
Strolling around Fillmore Street last weekend I came across a lady that was summer ready, chic, tasteful, pulled together in that casual Northern Californian way. San Franciscans don’t over do it, we prefer quality over quantity and tend to shop for the long-term and not trendy pieces, although it’s tempting. Here’s to running around chic…….
