Fall will be here before we know it, the last bits of summer are almost gone. I’m a little sad about that, because I only took a 10 day vacation, and feel like I didn’t do enough to warrant wearing my summer kaftans. But I love fall, I prefer the cold to the heat andContinue reading “The Gold Statement Necklace”

Summer in Paris – Part Quatre
I love it, so many of us aren’t ready to let go of summer. Yet we are ready for fall too. It’s good to know that our fashion counter-parts in Paris are in the same frame of mind.

Summer Isn’t Over, Yet…..
I’m just not ready to let go of Summer, yet. I had a nice vacation, falling asleep to the sound of the Pacific Ocean and waking-up organically. I went as far as to buy kaftans at Blue Ginger and now find myself a few days later, wearing kaftans around the house. I also remembered thatContinue reading “Summer Isn’t Over, Yet…..”

New Makeup & Fragrance
I can’t decide which new fragrance to get myself, or if one is necessary. I also want a new foundation, but I’m really not going anywhere, or wearing full blown makeup.

Shopping The Look – Basic Black & Gold
There is just something about Black & Gold, it’s luxurious and chic. I wasn’t always into wearing yellow gold, preferring white gold or silver. But lately it’s been proven that I am my mother’s daughter. My mother loved jewelry. She made Jewelry contact before eye contact and I fear I am the same. All ofContinue reading “Shopping The Look – Basic Black & Gold”
The Case For The White Dress Shirt
I have several white dress shirts, that I haven’t been wearing. I mean I’ve had no reason to dress the way I once dressed to go to work, and the idea of trying to impress someone nauseates me. It’s like I’ve been there and done that, more than I can count. And then there areContinue reading “The Case For The White Dress Shirt”

Flamin Hot
There was a period in my life where I only had one pair of sneakers, I also couldn’t buy a pair of sneakers if my life depended on it. I depended on my younger sisters to pick them out for me, because when I bought a pair I ended up giving them away, I didn’tContinue reading “Flamin Hot”
It’s a Love Thing……
Ever since my good friend Ohlala Malala mentioned that her husband gifted her a Tiffany’s Love Ring, I’ve been hankering for one. Although the exact one Mahlala has is sold out, they still have the small size available. The small size doesn’t look as small, I have small fingers and can imagine wearing it, beingContinue reading “It’s a Love Thing……”

A Smaller Handbag
My sister has given our family two gorgeous children and my nephew is about to turn two. Running around after him at the playground has proven difficult when carrying a bigger bag.

The Sneaker Of Our Childhoods Is All Grown-up
I never wore Vans, I wore Sperry Topsiders and Bass Penny Loafers. I just didn’t think they were aesthetically pleasing on my feet. But now they seem to have caught on to the sneaker trend, and are all grown-up. They are affordable too, under a hundred. Now I am contemplating ordering a pair. I sawContinue reading “The Sneaker Of Our Childhoods Is All Grown-up”
