Thoroughly Modern Lady M

J’adore Paris…the city of lights, fashion, romance and my personal favorite…decadent crepes! But the fabulous dream of flying across the pond just for my ‘hot off the rack’ sugar crepe fix is not realistic. Well, after stumbling upon a heavenly UES spot serving sweets are equally {if not better…} delicious, my spontaneous ‘book Paris’ plans [...]

The Fhitting Room: Workout Smarter, Not Longer

Let’s face it. It’s almost time to say “adios!” to the cold weather {not to mention the release of bulky trenches…}, and say “hola!” to sunshine, bikinis and more importantly, summer. Finally! And while I couldn’t be more ecstatic about summer vacays {“barthhhelona” is so calling my name} and flaunting a tanned up glow {mostly [...]

You Had Me At Penne

Whether I’m cooking up a storm for a low-key dinner party or just brewing up some munchies for a cozy Sunday night in {like I did this past weekend!}, there’s always one recipe I know my guests, friends, brother…even boyfriend will go absolutely bananas over. I know, I know, Penne A La Vodka is so [...]

Happy National Nap Day

Between long weekend nights getting tackled by losing a beloved hour of sleep from Daylight Savings time, it’s safe to say we could all use a big nap. Well, it is National Nap Day after all! But where on earth can you go take a quick snooze in the city…Equinox? Nah. Starbucks? I’m fine. Well [...]

A Modern Art Affair

Partying like a wild animal all week for someone named Armory? Well, in case you’re not already in the scene of all things art, we’ve been raising our glasses to Armory Arts Week…you know, from cheering on Solange at the MoMA’s 2013 Armory Party this past Wednesday night to stiletto-ing uptown to the Museum Mile. [...]

Helping Others…One Vine At A Time

Known for its rapidly growing wine industry, Napa Valley is filled of all things culinary and chic…not to mention rich of rocky soils, endless vineyards and of course, sinfully delicious and smooth wines! But, what many don’t realize is its family-built history, hard work put into growing such iconic brands and most importantly, the wine [...]

Snoozing With The Trees

Browsing through various links off Gilt, Rue La La to even my favorite chic blogs about where to go at the best price for my next upcoming getaway, I stumbled on a true nest find via Fox in the Pine. And oh my, you may think this excursion is one I would never step my [...]

Cool Trips. Pink Slips. Sexy Lips.

Waking up to bright sunshine and semi-warm weather today? Love it! Waking up to find out Estée Lauder has released a new Mad Men collection of fabulous upbeat goodies? Umm…obsessed is an understatement. I’m all over it and ready to show off my inner 60’s goddess this Spring! Hola. Consisting of three glam-filled products, this [...]

A Chic Indoor Campfire

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 [...]

A Flagship Of Iconic Shades

Getting a manicure? Yep, that’s pretty much on the top of my beauty errands list for this weekend. But after a long work week I’ve decided to bump it up and totally spoil myself! Top pick on where to get buffed and puffed? That would be the Essie Flagship Salon housed inside the fabulous Samuel [...]

Fit For A Princess

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. In particular? [...]
