When I posted photos on my Facebook page of a hairstyle I created last weekend for a gala I attended, many asked how I did it. The truth is, I have no idea. I didn't have a lot of time to get ready and I was on third day hair that I had curled and doused with hairspray (and dry shampoo) earlier that morning so my options ...

Jason Wu for Target- What I Bought & Fitting Room Pics
Oh My Goodness. Ladies I am running on a few hours of sleep right now so I'm trying my best to be coherent. I got up at 7 a.m. after working until 1 a.m. at a gala (I didn't get to bed until 2 a.m.) and headed to Target for the highly anticipated Jason Wu collection. I got there at abut 7:35 and there was a line but it wasn't too ...
Chambray Another Way
This is my second attempt at chambray and I think this time around it's much better. I was starting to worry that chambray just wasn't for me and then I found this shirt at Old Navy that I could order online in the tall size to better fit my body. The other chambray shirt I had purchased from Old Navy was just too short on me and didn't fit my ...
Review: Peter Thomas Roth Max Complexion Correction Pads
During a recent FaceTime session with one of my friends from the great white North (Canada, of course), I was introduced to a product by Peter Thomas Roth called “Max Complexion Correction Pads.” (We literally do little mini hauls when we FaceTime. I snap photos on my iPhone of products she recommends so that I remember to buy ...
We Quit the Gym.
Remember that episode of Friends where Ross and Chandler try to quit the gym? Then the attractive woman comes out and they just keep repeating "we're quitting the gym!" Well, my experience was nothing like that---but we did it---both H and I quit our bootcamp classes. I know that sounds crazy since last year we were going to class about 5 days a ...

Weekend Shopping: 20% off at Ulta & Chanel Sunglasses
Thank goodness it's Saturday! Today H and I ventured out to my optometrist's office because my Chanel sunglasses came in (style # 5171 in tortoise---they are the ones with the bows on the sides) and I went in to try them on to make sure I liked the style/fit. I'll have them next week when my prescription lenses are ready :) I ...
A Whole Lotta Heart- Catbird NYC Rose Gold Heart Ring
My friend Brianne (during a 3-hour long FaceTime chat) told me about New York boutique catbird and it was love at first site visit. I showed my H some of the lovely pieces on the site---I was most enamoured with the rose gold heart ring. It was dainty and perfect. H told me not to buy it because it leaves him nothing to get me for ...
Keeping it Simple
Do you ever have days at work where you know you don't have any meetings and won't be leaving the office? Today, that was my day---a true blessing because I got to get a lot of work done by being glued to my desk. Speaking of being glued to your desk, here's a list of compelling reasons you should totally NOT do it. In other news, I think I ...
Review: Suave Professionals’ NEW Keratin Infusion Dry Shampoo
I felt like a pretty lucky gal when Suave contacted me about a new product line they were launching. They said they had read my rave review about their dry shampoo (the one that smells like lemony-goodness) and they wanted to send me a product from their new line that they think I'd love. A few weeks later, I came home to find a special shiny ...
