Untangled.

Just yesterday, my friend and I were talking about how our jewelry drawers are such a train wreck.  

Well, chalk another one one up to Pinterest, where I found this perfectly organized jewelry collection by Sarah.  
 I need this lucite bracelet stand.
This one is out of stock.  You can find a similar one, here.

Make an Investment.

Last year, I was torn on what color  J. Crew Excursion Vest to get.  It was like Sophie’s choice-  I chose orange, but I also wanted navy.  Sadly, by the time I realized my mistake, they were all sold out.  Oh, the regret!

  I couldn’t be happier to report that they are back in stock.  Get yours before it’s too late!

I’m in a New York State of Mind.

Last week, I went to New York for work.
 We had some great nights…
 …and some good mornings.
We stayed in the meat packing district, near our office…  at the Standard, right next to DVF.
 There was a lot of this.
and some of this.
 Here we are at the top of the Standard.  A little too hipster for me.  But I decided to go with it…

After a few cocktails, we got some beach waves courtesy of blow.

Which, I just learned was the original blow-dry bar.

We also splurged for some eyelash extensions.  I am SERIOUSLY in love.   No mascara, no eyeliner.

August 31.

Eleven years ago today, I became engaged to this guy.
Ten years ago today I married him.
Seven years ago today, I lost this lady.
Five years ago today I found out that I was carrying this one in my belly.

A bittersweet day, indeed.

That’s What I’m Talking About.

Last year I wrote about the amazing wallpaper from Black Crowe Studios.  Well, check out some recent installations of their papers.
Is this room not TO DIE FOR?  It was designed by Robert Passal for the Hampton Designers Showhouse.
 This color combo has me weak in the knees.
 Loving the purple and emerald as well.
Okay, okay… I love them all.

Minted.

Lately, I have become a big fan of Revlon’s nail polish.  Last week I posted this picture on Instagram and I can’t tell you how many people asked what nail color I was wearing.  
 Seriously, even the little old lady in the Dr.’s office wanted a piece of the action.  Well, here it is…

Buy it here.
