That sums up a major reason why I love spring! Seattle’s Pike Place Market is a favorite. And Kate Spade is sundress paradise. So I combined the Market and this floral confection. Pike Place, the longest running farmer’s market in the USA, was founded in 1927. Unique stalls, shops and restaurants cover three floors and the other side of the …
After featuring Emma Watson and her makeup artist on Beauty Trend Tuesday, and seeing how ravishing she looked at the London Noah premiere, I decided to blog about her gown. After all, this is a celebrity-centric week on my site and Emma is a celebrity full of style. Unfortunately, we can’t just snap up Emma’s ethereal gown because it’s a …
As celeb makeup artist, Darais, was doing Emma’s makeup, she confided that she found lip-gloss containers messy because product goop always builds up around the rims. So Darais teamed up with Lancôme to create Gloss in Love, with a goop-free, push-button, pop-up lid. Ingenious! Plus, they made Gloss in Love a lipstick and gloss all in one cosmetic. I learned …
This week is Celebrity Central. I’m featuring different A-Listers and what makes them amazing. Since it’s Meeting Men Monday, I couldn’t think of a better subject than actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. He may be Game of Thrones’ BAD boy, but in reality, he’s GOOD when it comes to romance. In a recent InStyle interview, Nikolaj explained about his wife, “It was love …
Here’s what greeted me upon my return from vacay. Yikes! After tackling some of my work, I’m dreaming of Cabo. When’s the return flight?! Since it’s Fashion Friday, I finished my break by compiling Cabo Fashion Crazes for you… Reflect It Out. Cabo is currently covered in reflector sunglasses…so when there is an amazing view, you see it times a …
Señor Sweets es un paraíso de postres. Yum doesn’t even begin to describe this Cabo San Lucas dessert heaven! A girl knows she’s on vacation when a Señor Sweets cheesecake is her evening snack… breakfast is a platter of pastries paired with a smoothie… and at lunch she happens upon this irresistible treat—but it’s so small. I could easily dust …
Before heading off for Cabo, I asked Julie, my nail guru, her secrets for keeping a mani/pedi looking good the whole trip. She said that if vacay activities consist of sight-seeing, shopping and dining, any color and application will do—but if you’ll be swimming, surfing, hiking, parasailing – and everything in between – you’ll need to take extra precautions. Pool …
Since this is Meeting Men Monday, I’m sharing tips I just learned at one of my favorite weddings. I first met the bride and groom at the pool the day beforehand. They had carefully planned a beautiful destination wedding on the beach at sunset. The guest list was limited to close family and friends—but the couple arrived at their resort …
Today, I went to Pelican Rock, an old pirate hideaway, where the Pacific collides with the Sea of Cortez. You can only get there by water… So I kyaked on over—passing a whale jumping (yikes!), dolphins, schools of colorful fish, coral rocks and, of course, pelicans. As John Steinbeck wrote, at this spot you can see that “the names of …
Everyone knows that Cabo San Lucas is a fiesta 24/7. I love the beach life, friendly people, great food, and dancing. But one evening, I left my hotel seeking a more subdued experience… …and wound up in a traditional Mexican town. San José es un oasis de tranqulidad cerca a una ciudad festejera. This place is all about art galleries, …
Or, as they say in Cabo… No fui yo. https://instagram.com/p/mCHI7KifGu/ The fringed top in this Insta-video is exploding on the Cabo fashion scene. Before heading off, I’d mainly seen the fringe look on Victoria’s Secret bikinis. But here in Mexico, babes on beaches and in clubs and restaurants are all about it. Expect to see this trend in vogue as …
¿Quién es mi compañero de viaje? Chanel Nº 5…por su puesto:) Marilyn Monroe was famous for saying that all she wore to bed was this scent. That blonde vixen was onto something. Chanel Nº 5 is a go-to fragrance at home, away, and in flight. I not only brought my travel size to Cabo, but my matching tee. These pics …
Bring on the beach, the sunsets, the sea, and the dance parties! When I asked someone what time it was, he said, “Cabo time…whatever you want it to be!” For today’s sun togs, I chose a Karla Colletto swimsuit and a Wayf shawl. The wrap was designed for nights on the town, not days at the beach—but I found that it …
When it comes to designer Christian Louboutin, he’s in a red-soled, style-setting shoe universe all his own. While wearing one of his creations, your feet snatch all the attention! At this Christian Louboutin trunk show, I got to try on several of his wearable works of art…some of which are new for spring and have coordinating handbags—that are so exclusive …
Britain’s Parliament is now allowing some of the Kingdom’s magnificent premises to be rented out for events…complete with champagne, dinner, homemade scones, and discounts for charities. The royal palace, Queen Elizabeth’s London residence, has even been rented. In my opinion, there couldn’t be a better place to hold a party…particularly if one had free range of the Queen’s gowns on …
