I have a theory. I personally believe that makeup companies these days, in attempts to continually renew the image of their brand, put out “new and improved” mascaras that are duds compared to their original counterparts. Okay, that may be a bit of an exaggeration (I actually enjoy the “LashBlast Length” in comparison to the [...]

I love the craziness that is the Rachel Zoe Project. I’ve got my season premier DVRd and ready to go tonight, and I can’t wait to see the Zoe team + the Taylor “scandal”. I also follow all the cast members on Twitter, and I’ve subscribed to the Zoe Report. I have no shame. Whether [...]

I love switching up my look. Some may call it an addiction, but I just can’t justify going through life with the same ol’ style day in and day out. Andrea (my hair dresser and one of my closest friends) worked her magic again, slimming down and giving shape to my overgrown mop. You’d think [...]

There’s something about an overly loved pair of shoes that is so hard to discard. Raggedy, stained, past-their-prime footwear hidden in the back of the closet – we’ve all got them! But no need to fret, I’m going to show you how to breathe new life into those old soles (like my play on words, huh, [...]

Interviews are back up and rearing to go, so let’s jump right in to my latest edition with Suzy from Beneath the Glass. A mom-to-be for a second time, Suzy shows how to be sophisticated and trendy with her baby bump and all! Her outfit posts are lovely, her editorials are spot on, and with [...]

I think the time right after getting back from vacation can be the most stressful. For me and Jony, we both had a ton of work to catch up on, Oliver decided to entice a few ticks, ants invaded the house, and the laundry was out of control! Needless to say I’ve been a bit [...]

I’m finally getting a haircut this Wednesday, and in honor of turning this heavy mop into something somewhat decent, I thought I’d share some of my hair inspiration! So sit back, relax, and prepare to be pic spammed! I’m still unsure of what I want to do. I’m thinking of taking up the length a [...]

This past week Jony and I went to visit our family in Ohio. Though we both are born, raised, and met in California, our parents grew up in Ohio – talk about coincidence! We had a moment there with a possible family relation scare before we got married (lol!), but no worries, we come from [...]

So, due to unforeseen circumstances, I could not access my blog at all while on my mini vacay (more on that story tomorrow, ugh!). While I was gone, my DIY lace top was picked as one of the links for the Independent Fashion Bloggers weekly roundup. Here’s a much delayed repost featuring your’s truly! *** [...]

Rather than advice, this post is more of a “I’d like to hear your opinion” piece. Not too long ago I read an article in Elle Magazine about women who attempted just about every trick in the book in order to have the “right” gendered baby. It featured a woman who literally went into depression [...]

Who doesn’t love a face mask?! It’s the easiest way to give yourself a little pampering at home. I love experimenting with all different types of masks, from peels to exfoliants and beyond. One of my favorites is this basic mud mask by Queen Helene. It uses English clay to clean out your pores, tighten [...]

So, I’m super excited that I finally received my first dslr in the mail yesterday! I’ve been searching high and low for the perfect one to invest in, so it’s been a bit of a long time coming. I’ve been using a Canon powershot that my husband bought me during our honeymoon because we had accidentally forgotten [...]

I love ribbon. I love the way it exudes femininity, and how it can make just about anything look dainty. I love how it can reflect one’s personality depending on it’s color and texture, from romantic black velvet to ingenue pink silk. Growing up I would make bulletin board collages with ribbon strewn across it, [...]

I’ve realized that I rarely share with you guys some of my favorite places to visit, so from this point forward I am making a conscious effort to expand beyond my home and into the world I tramp. First up I want to show you one of my recent finds: Paper Source in Berkeley. It’s [...]
