Yesterday’s theme was swimming, and today’s theme is “thinks that make me smile.” We started with a Bag of Tricks, and now we have these lovely Eiffel Tower Sunglasses. The pe...
If I had a personal motto it would go something along the lines of, “Life is short. Find things that make you smile.” This Bag of Tricks from Madewell would fit my motto perfectly. Wouldn...
Let’s make it a day of swim, shall we? It’s in the 80s today in Chicago, making it perfect beach weather. I’d prefer a pool, but you work with what you can get. I’m not sure t...
I don’t watch Mad Men, but I imagine this super sexy and curve hugging yet not-too-revealing Carmen Marc Valvo Leopard-Print Bandeau Tank is exactly what the women on that show would wear to th...
Polka dots are so in right now so designers keep creating things with polka dots and I am buying right into the trend. Literally. Buying right into it. I cannot get enough and this Polka Dot &...
I don’t think I’m creative enough to figure out how to appropriately wear this ASOS Metal Collar Necklace, but I love it. Seriously, does one wear this necklace with a tee shirt? A collar...
Rockstar wedges. It doesn’t get much better than these Valentino Rockstud Wedge Pumps. Sure, they cost an astronomical $695, but this is a pair of shoes I could see myself wearing every single ...
April was pretty dry around these parts, but May has been filled with rain. I’ve recently been turned onto how awesome bubble umbrellas are. I mean, they’re more narrow so your bag may ge...
Don’t believe any of the posts you see today. I am not, in fact, sitting at my computer being a good blogger. I am instead wandering around NYC in search of the perfect macaron, which is what I...
I’ve got a juvenile sense of humor so whenever I see a hi-low dress I can’t help but think of the old adage “business in the front, party in the back.” Of course, it’s p...
I just realized what has been missing from my life. It’s this Growing Moss Ring that’s filled with *real* moss from Iceland. Conversation starter, indeed. AHAlife • $290
I’m not sure what’s coming over me in my *old* age, but I’m becoming quite the Lilly Pulitzer fan! It’s not that I ever had anything against Lilly to begin with, but I really ...
I don’t know about you but I am completely and totally smitten with polka dots right now! I’m so glad they’re in-style right now because I can’t get enough. The latest ...
I’ve been hearing/reading quite a bit about caviar manicures, which I believe is the act of adding a 3D bead-like element to your manicure. I just found this Ciaté Caviar Manicure and ha...
The story of my freaking life. Urban Outfitters • $44
Who knew that Brooks Brothers made shoes? And who knew that they’d be so dang cute and stylish enough that even those of us that don’t normally frequent prep-happy Brooks Brothers would w...
I feel strongly that there is no such thing as too many pairs of shoes. While some shoes may be similar, there may be that one little detail that makes one pair of shoes more perfect for a certain ev...
Have you ever coveted a butter dish? I can honestly say that before now I’ve given nary a thought to butter dishes. Since finding this Jonathan Adler ‘Elephant’ Porcelain But...
The latest shoe from ShoeMint was just released and it’s a beauty! This is the ShoeMint Jill style in coral, which looks like an amazing color for summer! They’re nice and bright and the ...
Every year I watch the Golden Globes, Emmy’s, and Oscars and wonder why such events don’t exist for normal people. The “Winning Awesomely at Life” awards or whatnot. If I were...
When it comes to jewelry I can’t stay away from rose gold, but when it comes to nail polish I’m like a magpie for regular old gold. I never knew I had it within me to covet $30 nail polis...
I was never tempted to jump on the Michael Kors oversized gold watch trend, but now, seeing the watch in Rose Gold … well, I want in! I must find a way to make this Michael Kors Oversized Rose ...
I pinned this Rebecca Minkoff Striped Canvas Tote the other day and I just can’t get it out of my head. {Boy, its more than I dare to think about…} It is, undoubtedly, my dream bag of the...
While I KNOW the jars above would probably be a fairly easy DIY project, that’s not really my modus operandi. There’s never been something I’ve seen that inspired me to think “...
Please tell me this Sir Thing Ring brought as big of a smile to your face as it did to mine. This is the type of ring I see Zooey Deschanel pulling off with aplomb. Me? I’d probably just spend ...
I mean, why the heck not, right? If you want to be the belle of the ball, be the belle of the ball not only in a pink tulle maxi skirt, but a D&G pink tulle maxi skirt. Net-a-Porter • $750
I wish I was the type of gal that wore tops like this Topshop Embellished Longsleeve Top. It’s not that I CAN’T wear it, I would just never walk into a store and walk out with it in my po...
So sweet. So feminine. So pink. So obviously Lilly Pulitzer. J’adore! Lilly Pulitzer Opening Night Clutch • $88
What a juicy piece of costume jewelry to wear throughout the bright and sunny days shortly heading our way. Marc Jacobs sure knows how to make fashion fun … yet oddly accessible to those of us ...
My childhood is calling and reminding me of my obsession with making mixtapes. All of my tapes included the same songs from Tiffany that I’d dance around to in my room for hours on end. ...
