I just think these are the most romantic and gorgeous way to add some whimsy to your everyday 'do. Kind of like a modern version of Frida Kahlo....sans her epic unibrow, but instead with a healthy dose of flower child.  I'm on the fence about whether or not I actually have the gall to rock one while casually running errands...I absolutely L-O-V-E them,...

Ladies, start mulling over the perfect polish color for your pedi because these open-toe wonders are going to be all you'll need for your summer styling. As you can see, I favor mostly neutral shoes because they are just so easy and versatile, but a few pairs are turning up the spice with some neon pops, cool textures and metallic shine. I literally...

Hip hip hooray, I'm super excited to finally spill the deets on the new gig! You're looking at the new e-commerce and social media/pr manager at Maya Star and Co-Star boutiques, thankyouverymuch. So far, I really like it....it's a good blend of creative/tech, so it appeals to my artsy fartsy and OCD nerdy computer geek side. I mean, I take pictures of really...

Ok, I have basically sucked at this blogging thing for the past month...bear with me as I get in a groove with the new job (which I still need to post about) and find a way to create the perfect work/blog balance. So, in order to make it up to you, I present you with a sweet and tart dessert that basically will...

I pile on bracelets, necklaces, rings.....but my poor ears are usually stuck with the same ol' studs day in and day out. Don't get me wrong - I love my goes-with-everything gold lines and dot studs (literally bee-lined it to Steven Alan to stock up the past two times I visited LA!). My ears are stupidly sensitive, and just cant handle anything that...

Guess what, y'all?! I got a new full-time job - woohoo! Hope that sort of explains the silent streak on the blog recently, and I'll divulge more on that soon... Anyways, so Father's Day is tomorrow and my pops is a huge fan of key lime anything - especially pie. Nothing says "I love you, Pops" like squeezing 70000000000 key limes, crunching up...

As I was perusing Pinterest this morning, a pic of the beautiful Hanneli popped up on my feed. At first, it was the gorgeous yellow color of the dress she wore to the CFDAs that caught my eye. Then, I saw it...THE  haircut that I have been searching high and low for. It's not quite a bob, but it's not what I'd call...

  Smithville, Texas. Just an hour drive outside of Austin, but it feels worlds away and of a different era. John and I love finding places like this. A prime spot for weekend antiquing, talking about how vintage graphics really are just that much cooler than their modern day cousins, jumping around empty streets, admiring adorable old cottages with wrap-around porches that beg...

Fun fact: John and I met in Florence, Italy. Another fun fact: That city is ripe with döner kebab stands (pretty much the only thing you can get in Florence that doesn't resemble a pizza, panino or pasta...unless you count that one restaurant that serves imposter "Mexican" food). I ate lots of döner kebabs when I lived there. So much, I could be...
