‘Twas the week before Christmas… and I could not be more excited about the thought of being home with my family 7 days from now. Even though most of us starting thinking about presents to stack under the tree as soon as December 1st comes around, the reality is that most of us don’t get…
Here’s the deal: While I preach about all these alternatives to wearing black during Winter and am constantly looking for lighter colors to keep me warm, fact is that nothing is quite as easy (and timeless) like an all black ensemble. But how do you take a somber monochrome look from bland to grand? With…
Aside from the fact that I spend every free minute of my time researching interior design ideas, home accessories and furniture for our new apartment, it is also the category that I currently spend most of my money on. That being said, I found it only fitting to create an entire gift guide for the…
If there is ever an appropriate time to wear sequins, this is it. “This” being the last days of the year. While it does not take a whole lot of convincing to get me to put on a little something sparkling, I do realize that sequins may not be everyone’s cup of tea. Or better…
Not to brag or anything, but I already have the Christmas gifts for all the important ladies in my life sorted. Yes, you read that right.

The fact that a camel coat ranks at the very top of the Fall must-have list is old news. And by now, you have probably come across countless outfits, pictures and posts about said key piece for the colder season. However, the hunt for the perfect coat is (almost) never an easy one. It took…
Ironically enough, I am long overdue for a visit at the hair dresser, yet I am typing away on a post about hair care. My cut is 5-months outgrown and I could seriously use a trim, and still, I have received more questions about my current hair care favorites than combined in the last year….
In the middle of that strangely comforting, yet utterly difficult to pinpoint season somewhere between warm Summer days and a cold Winter approaching (no sign yet, even on the last day of October), I find it more and more difficult to dress in the mornings.
