It is not light that we need, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake. Frederick Douglass

Prescription for a Persistent Smile... and Pre-Loved

Prescription for a Persistent Smile… and Pre-Loved

A certain someone has had me smiling incessantly for weeks (months?!) now. To the point I told this certain someone that they are personally responsible for the ever-increasing smile lines that have developed since I’ve known them. I was going to make them pay for Botox (ok, it’s not quote at the Botox level… yet….)...
Eco Under it All

Eco Under it All

With all this talk of eco-couture I realized I’ve been neglecting one of  the most important parts of dressing… your underwear of course! Sometimes the thing that makes or breaks an outfit is what lies beneath… which is why you will heart T. Luxe! T. Luxe is an innovative lingerie line that uses sustainable practices...
Just say YA!

Just say YA!

Running late, as always. I hope you like my song of the day. I’ve had it on repeat at the gym for the past week. Just like the fashion world, I’m feeling old school right now…. lol. Anyway, today’s designer is Yael Aflalo, the creative mind behind YAYA AFLALO and LOVE YAYA. Over the past...
A Girl With a Habitude!

A Girl With a Habitude!

I totally need a personal assistant!! I’m usually pretty good at dealing with the “big things” but the little things like… obtaining my own internet account, have proven to be quite problematic. I mean, who has time to wait around for these peeps to come set things up? My inability to wait for people to...

Jewelery that will make them green with envy

Traveling always takes a lot out of me… not only the change of scene and never ending plane ride, but the stack of stuff and making-up-for-lost-time that’s always waiting when I get back. So I apologize  for posting. I should be back on the ball as long as the internet I’m stealing remains functional! I...

I am a horrible traveler. In fact, two hours before my plane was supposed to leave for South Carolina I was standing in my apartment, sure I was going to miss it. For someone who loves fashion so much, I’m a horrible packer! Anyway, I’m down here now, loving the warm air and southern hospitality....
Above the Bahar

Above the Bahar

  What a morning! Still catching my breath…. Anyway, before I get entrenched in a packing frenzy for this SC trip, I thought I’d leave you with some fashion. I’m going to bring my lap top, so hopefully I can write on the road. In case not, I’ll do my best to load you up...
What's your policy?

What’s your policy?

After engaging in some much needed retail therapy, I’m back. I’m fighting this “it’s fall thing” tooth and nail… however I have to admit, for the first time in months, my legs were a bit chilly as walked through downtown Boston yesterday.  I don’t have that much planned for this weekend, but I’ll be in...
Don't Get Mad, Get Even....

Don’t Get Mad, Get Even….

Ok that title has absolutely no relevance to my life right now… but I thought it worked because the brand of the day is eventide. It was either that, or a play on Pearl Jam’s Evenflow… and I figured I’ve already given you enough crazy music for one day. Designers Sarah Spratt and Christian Stroble...

Scary Video of the Day

Bonnie Tyler ” Total Eclipse of the heart” I’ve had this song stuck in my head for the past couple days… this and Swing by Savage and Soulja Boy (I know, but you have to admit it’s a great gym song). I decided to check out this video… and all I can say is WOW....

A torn ACL?! Say it ain’t so Tom!! Just when I was getting all excited for the football season…I’m wondering if Giselle is to blame in all this… Anyway it’s Monday. Manic Monday (song of the day). I’m debating whether or not it’s ok not to bring a suit jacket to work. I think that’d...

Back to L’Ecole…

Yup… my crazy subway ride yesterday confirms it… the kiddies are back in school. Oh the drama! The clothes! The boys! Honestly? The more I think about it,  not much has changed. While we’re on the subject of school, I might as well share with you a line I’m sure you’re going to love, L’Ecole...
