I remember those countless mornings waking up to the smell of my mom’s delicious baking. Especially around the holidays, there was one distinct smell that I remember the most: her sour cream coffee cake. My mom acquired this yummy recipe from a good friend, Clark, back in her college years and it still wows our

Finding a concealer? That’s a given for me…I always know that Trish McEvoy, Chantecaille or Giorgio Aramni can always save me from looking half dead. But when it comes to finding the right lipstick color? Well, other than knowing how to properly plump my lips, that’s another story for this girl. Edward Bess When I

It’s officially Gobble Gobble time everyone! Today is one of my favorite holidays of the year, and I’m so thankful for everyone in my life. Including my favorite SoulCycle instructor, MB Regan. MB is such an inspiring person {and so are her killer biceps!} to train with daily, and she consistently clears my head in

I’m thankful for many things in my life, but there is one that sticks out the most to me this year: my friends. When you live in a large city away from your family, it is your friends you depend on, get advice from, and know that they always have your back. My friends up

Alright y’all, if you’re anything like me it’s that time of the year where immediately after you “gobble til you wobble” this week, you’ll start panicking on Friday that you only have a few weeks to buy and wrap up perfect gifts for those you love! My typical shopping spree has always been while I’m

As I was walking down Broadway this week, I was immediately drawn to the mysterious looks in French Connection’s retail windows. I went “arse over elbows” for this British line’s men collection staring back at me {you know how I love anything London!}, and began texting my guy friend who works at FC to find out

One of my all time favorite things to do is discovering up and coming bands. Maybe it’s from previously dating a rising music agent, who introduced me to array of different music acts and venues. Or maybe it’s just from growing up in Nashville, TN. But, I just love it all…The excitement of finding a

Growing up in Nashville, TN there are endless opportunities, especially if you want to get into the music industry…I mean, it is Music City! But, in order to succeed in that business you better be pretty phenomenal…there is so much talent out there! Many aspiring singers rarely make it past being the star in their

I don’t have a sister, but if I did her name would be Ryan C. We have grown up together, seen each other through the good and bad, and flat out know everything about each other. What can I say? She’s more than a best friend to me. Ryan is a part of the Baker

I rarely post anything on the weekend, but I couldn’t help but share this delectable place I dove into yesterday. The 14th Annual New York Chocolate Show in Chelsea {on 18th between 6th and 7th}! And guess what? It’s here until this Sunday, so scootchie tootsie on over! Francois Pralus {owner and chef of Pralus}.

Instead of relaxing in front of the tv or ordering in a plentiful delivery from Pick-a-Bagel after a memorable night of mischief, I double dare you to push through the tourists in Soho to meet an incredible new friend. Call him “C” if you wish. Short for C. Wonder, of course! You will catch my

Between printing off the next day’s itinerary every night before I hit the hay or color coding all of my to do lists, I would say that this girl is efficiently organized. But, I’m always looking for new chic {with a touch of Jackie O.!} ways to take my organizational skills to the next level.
