Although I’m not even remotely close to becoming a mommy {or married, speaking of!} any time soon, I do spend a decent amount of time around some fabulous and hip mamas in NYC. Between working, working out to shopping {who doesn’t love Lulu Lemon?}, I’ve made my fair share of mamas + mamas “to be”

With April showers soon turning into a sunny bloom, there’s all the more reason to raise our glasses to fabulous {and finally warm!} weather…champagne, anyone? But the last thing any host wants to flaunt shaggy flutes. So when I was visiting Nashville recently for the most fabulous wedding, I saw these blissful trinkets at Corzine

Anddddd, it’s Monday! But just because the hustle & bustle of the work week has started doesn’t mean we can’t all chill out at night…in a reasonably priced fashion, of course! My all-time favorite dessert that’s not only romantic, but cheap? That would be cookin’ up good ‘ole fashioned s’mores. Hola. Whether you’ve got a

Known for her flawless beauty, impeccable style and radiating all kinds of goodness, Princess Diana is one to forever be celebrated. But all the media articles, interviews and pictures aren’t the only ways to truly know the history of her royal life. It was through her fashion style where her personality was enlightened.

With phones ringing throughout the holidays with the exciting news of friends tying the knot, I was left with one question in mind: “what oh what to get them for engagement gifts?” It’s a question I’ve received from many in the past, but I finally decided to research options and select my top picks for

I’ve heard about them, raved about them and dreamed of creating products with them…but actually getting to meet the main players of LR Paris in real life?
