BaubleBar







Beautiful colors can inspire everything from a gorgeous home to an enchanting love story (hello weddingscape dreamers!).  To I'm feeling inspired by all the luscious shades of burgundy, lilac and mauve I've been noticing all around me lately.  From bottles to bouquets I'm telling you these colors are everywhere.  

That color scheme plays out perfectly with this little outfit that is a wear now and wear later favorite of mine.  This dress is so sweet and flattering and like all good dresses do, it makes it so easy to look good.  

Right now it'd be so cute paired with a strappy nude heel.  Come September, you're going to be reaching for your favorite pair of ankle boots.  This pair is the perfect choice for going from summer to fall.  

I'm also loving this bag.  From the silhouette to the hardware to the gorgeous color...Can't get enough.  

These glasses (total splurge but worth it if you can swing it), these pretty blush earrings and these soft muted makeup colors all have my attention.  It's not hard to see why, right?! Haha.

Don't forget to grab this soft and cozy cardigan from Nordstrom right now...The Anniversary Sale went live to the public today and things that are left are flying.  I'm so sad that this jacket sold out already.  Fingers crossed that a restock will be coming soon!

Hope you're all ready to start the weekend.  Enjoy whatever you have planned!

Great gifts come in all shapes and sizes and just as many unexpected price points.  Today I've put together some wonderful picks that are all well under $100.  I say, let's shop!  This gold initial monogrammed jewelry box caught my eye and would be the perfect thing to pick up for the girl who adores her gems and baubles.  These cozy ballet style slippers are so cute and remind me of a Chanel meets Kate Spade moment.  You will love them.  I covet all things Garance Doré and this iPhone case is just another reason why.  Kate Spade's quirky-chic glamour is not lost on these gloves.  They come in a few lovely color options and I'm seriously craving these.  These tiny charms from Bauble Bar are among the sweetest little somethings I've seen.  They are the perfect choice for anyone who loves tiny trinkets.  Finally, this gorgeous eye palette from Tory Burch has some of the prettiest, jewel-toned shadows I've seen and I love how it's the just the right size to toss in your purse for after dinner drinks and nights of fun!  Merry gifting! xx

Labor Day Weekend Sales are hot and ready.  So many of my favorite designers and brands are featuring end of summer steals you won't want to miss.  Here are my favorites:



Tory Burch is offering 20% off when you spend $300, 25% off when you spend $500, and 30% off when you spend $750 using the code LABORDAY14. This is the time shop as Tory doesn't often go on sale AND this sale includes EVERYTHING online not just end-of-season savings.  If you want it, this weekend is your chance to get because you won't find a better deal on her items for the rest of the season! So many beautiful, brand new styles are available and definitely worth checking out.


If you've been following me for anytime now, then you likely know I'm a huge fan of Nordstrom's.  The  Nordstrom Labor Day Sale is another one of my picks for the best sale of the weekend and here's why.  Their amazing anniversary sale last month is always the place to score your best pre-season steals.  And now, they've marked down those same designer pieces to even less than the anniversary sale price.  This sweater coat from Vince is a must if you haven't scooped it up yet (it's 33% off!) A hundred pages of other great markdowns are all there for the taking.


Here's a snapshot of other sales going on this weekend:

J.Crew: 40% off final sale, free shipping on all orders over $100
J.Crew Factory: 40-60% off everything 
Baublebar: Select jewelry starting at 50% off
C.Wonder: 30% off full-priced items

Kendra Scott 15% off & free shipping with code 2014LDW

Old Navy: 40% off everything in stores and online
Lulu and Georgia: 25% off everything

Happy Labor Day!

 Mother's Day is such a lovely holiday as it spans generations and touches all our hearts.  I can't wait to show my amazing mother how much I care with a heartfelt Mother's Day complete with all the things she loves.  Borrowing some lovely inspiration from two of my favorite stores aka Bloomingdale's and Nordstrom, I've put together some chicly sweet ideas I think any mom would adore.  These cozy plush slippers and luxe pjs are the perfect way to start her day.  Moms who know that style resides in the details will be thrilled to receive a beautiful pair of pearl stud earrings or classic Burberry watch.  If signature scents are her style, she'll be thinking of you every time she wears a beautiful fragrance, like the new Tory Burch perfume found in this gift set or as she lights this luscious Jo Malone candle.  And if your mom happens to be a glam girl on the go who's after your own heart then either one of these crave worthy totes from Kate Spade and Tory Burch would be just perfect.  

I hope you all enjoy a lovely Mother's Day and happy shopping!

The countdown is on and, hopefully, that means you have done most of your major shopping and are looking to pick up those thoughtful little extras you know they weren't expecting.  While candy canes and pretty packaged chocolates are still a welcomed tradition, here are some shiny little additions to slip in alongside them.  Another option?  Choose all twelve and give one each day.  Any way you gift it, they'll be so glad you did.

I hope this weekend finds you somewhere warm and cozy, surrounded by all the people and things you adore.  Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Dainty Jewels








While it certainly is trending right now, dainty jewelry has always been a personal favorite of mine.  From finely crafted necklaces to delicate rings, the options are endless and choices, pretty and plenty.  Writing this post, I have a happy story to share.

In a rush to get out the door, (you know, that inadvertent moment when you just need to quickly add a little something to your look) I just had to add a certain necklace to my outfit.  Yes, it was late but if you are the girl I think you are, then you completely understand me.  Ok, so as hooks and clasps aren't always my forte, I hastily threw it on (yes, nearly literally) and dashed out the door.  Going about my day, I never gave the little necklace another thought until...I went to reach for it late that afternoon only  to feel it...missing.  With both hands now searching my neckline, in a bit of a panic I realized, it wasn't  there.  Noooo!  But sadly, yes, the dainty and beloved side cross necklace was gone.  Thinking (ok, hoping) it had gotten caught up in my clothing or hair somehow, I began the search.  Despite my best efforts, it was nowhere to be found.   I began retracing my steps that day and even called a few places I had stopped to see if just maybe it had been found and turned in.  Again, no.  So, with little else I could productively do, I decided that while yes, it was one of my most favorite necklaces, if it was meant to turn up again it would.  A few days went by and I occasionally glanced at the ground thinking about my missing adornment.  Several friends assured me that, you never know, you might find it somehow.  Then, on the next day, I remembered my mom once telling me that when something is lost, say a little prayer to St. Anthony and maybe it will be found.  So, that's what I did.  Later that day, my mother and I were together having lunch. She says to me, "You never found your necklace".  Beginning to answer her, I turned and looked down at the ground.  Something caught my eye.  I walked over to get a closer look and, there it was.  My necklace had found its way back to me.

Needless to say, I was happy, relieved and blissfully grateful all at once.  I guess it goes to show that a little faith goes a long way.  I hope this little anecdote gives you a bit of hope and inspiration along this incredible and wonderful journey we call life.  You never know when your own little miracle will happen...

Have a fabulous Friday and delightful weekend!

Casual yet clearly defined, this look reads as, effortlessly amazing.  An extra bold tassel, paired with the native American vibe of the couture-feeling jacket, against contrasting black, all leads to a perfectly tied together look.










Bold, brilliant and all kinds of fabulous, the ever-inspiring Rachel Zoe displays just how stunning an accessory can truly be.  Her gold tassel necklace puts the 'POW' into black power suit, taking this already elegant look into a whole new category of chic.









UK accessories designer, Jennifer Loiselle takes the tassel to the next level using a mixed media type of approach.  The combination of metals, leather, braiding and gorgeously saturated color make this Margot tassel necklace a brilliantly designed statement piece.


::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

While each of these looks is worthy of a haute price tag, that doesn't mean we all can't enjoy the current trend.  With styles and price points to suit everyone, the tassel is the perfect accessory to tie on for summer.  Here is a list of high & low options and where to find them:
