A couple weeks ago I put on this fabulous outfit and boarded Carnival Cruises’ Paradise ship with my fam to Ensenada. We all had a great time enjoying drinks, soaking in some sun and seeing the sights once we docked in Mexico. The area we visited was so gorgeous thought I’d share a few snapshots [...]

Glamour in the summer
June 19th, 2010 · 2 Comments · fashion
Love: The sleek, piece-y hair. Perfect pink bow. Lace, sequins, sparkles and fringe. Love: The dress moves so fluidly, cascades like a waterfall. Shades of purple and pink. Wide v-neck. Love: This shade of green. In lace. Classic pair of black pumps. Beach-y waves. Love: Geometric folds of fabric. Ethereal white. Embellishments. Mini-mini dress. Love: [...]
A reason to click those heels
June 18th, 2010 · 1 Comment · fashion
…you’ll hear the lovely sound of the wooden soles clacking against each other in this season’s latest trend. With sky-high heels, strappy designs, and open-toed options, clogs are back and looking more gorgeous than ever! It’s been nearly ten years since I’ve owned a pair. I remember seeing photos of them in Chanel’s spring 2010 [...]
An American Woman at The Met
June 15th, 2010 · 1 Comment · travel
Could you believe this silk evening dress was made in 1939? Designed by Charles James, it looks like something I’d envision on the red carpet today. But that’s the thing with a piece of art… it’s timeless. The dress and the others below are part of The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s special exhibition “American Woman: [...]

Restful respite
June 14th, 2010 · No Comments · orange county
I stumbled across this little nook with a million dollar view tucked away off a busy Pacific Coast Highway in Laguna Beach last week. So gorgeous, right?! Somehow these last couple weeks have been full of vacations, family parties and a time to catch up with old friends. I didn’t think it would take away [...]

Hello from Laguna Beach!
June 9th, 2010 · 4 Comments · orange county
Blogging from the beach (literally) because I can! Discovered free WiFi through my iPod… pretty crazy. I’m playing tour guide for some family friends from New Jersey and of course they want to see the beach! It’s partly cloudy with a slight breeze but the sand is nice and warm. Can you see my beach [...]

Cruisin’ to Ensenada
June 8th, 2010 · 6 Comments · travel
A short family vacation crept up on me and before I knew it I was on a cruise ship (for the first time) to Mexico Friday afternoon! Just got back into town Monday. Hope you all had a great weekend! I’ll post more on this later this week when it doesn’t feel like the room [...]
New York: Dylan’s Candy Bar
June 5th, 2010 · 3 Comments · travel
As I sit here writing this post I’m having a few pieces of a candy bar for breakfast to remind myself of the sweet and whimsical Dylan’s Candy Bar. I stumbled on this place by accident and just had to check it out after hearing about it on Oprah. It’s a good thing I don’t [...]

Sweet combo: Chocolate, strawberries and cupcakes!
June 4th, 2010 · 1 Comment · cooking
Whipped the most delicious batch of cupcakes at the last minute so thought I’d share for those of you who don’t have time to be Martha Stewart. I’ll admit that since I’ve had some leisure time on my hands I’ve been elitist at the thought of ready to make items from the store. Yesterday I [...]
New York: Yankee Stadium
June 4th, 2010 · No Comments · travel
From the Sex and the City-filled afternoon next up was an experience on the opposite end of the spectrum. We headed to the new-ish Yankee Stadium for the game against the Cleveland Indians last Friday night. Bought a hat, a hot dog and a diet pepsi then kicked up my feet because we had seats [...]
