Renting Spree

Most women go on a shopping spree to buy the threads they need for a special event, but Rent the Runway offers another approach…and it’s catapulted them to success. The season of proms, college formals, and spring business soirées is upon us. Instead of popping hundreds or thousands for a gown that could be deemed passé if worn twice, you …

Easter Style

The calendar may claim that the first day of spring was March 20th, but in my mind it’s this Easter Sunday! I’ve sleuthed around for spring shopping finds. Two of my top picks are this Nordstrom coral hat paired with Chloé sunglasses. Now I’m ready for a long run of the sun! Happy Easter everyone!

Taylor Swift Keds Event

Okay Swifties, I’ve got the lowdown on Taylor’s Keds Collection after attending her Nordstrom showcase. Items were brought in especially for the party! And this really was a party, complete with Taylor’s music blasting over speakers…which naturally led to impromptu dancing. One of my top picks is this striped cutie that goes with a wide array of casual wear. The …

Farmers’ Markets and Floral Dresses

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 …

Emma Watson Style Crush

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 …

Cabo Fashion Crazes

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 …

Vacay Mani Tips

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 …

Ahoy, Matey!

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 …

Party Reprieve

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, …

It Wasn’t Me!

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 …

Legendary Scent on Exotic Excursion

¿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 …

¡Hola Cabo!

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 …

The Land of Louboutin

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 …

The Pinch-Proof Ensemble

With this green Diane von Furstenberg blouse, I’m ready for any kind of Saint Patrick’s party this weekend. For a casual get-together, you can dress it down by throwing on a pair of leggings and black boots. If you’re a lucky lady invited to an upscale Irish bash, show off the silky sheen by combining the shirt with slacks and …

Chilling with a Family of Snowmen

I always wear a red cocktail dress for a romp in the snow. Don’t you?! Actually, I was on my way to an event when I drove past the park and spotted this family of snowmen. They were too irresistible to whiz by. And who could overlook this rascal? You can tell from his expression that he’s a mischievous character;) …
