1. If you’re forced to deal with cords, you might as well make them pretty. 2. Great guide for washing and storing all kinds of produce. 3. Summer is here and let’s ponder some bold haircuts for the season. 4. This dress. I saw this dress at my local J. Crew and fell in love, [...]
1. These colors are the best. 2. I’m in Oklahoma for the next week and a half – just enjoying some rest and relaxation with my family. (And by R&R, I mean pool time, board games, nightly cocktail hour, and my dad’s stocked candy drawer. Can you believe we shot that video 4 years ago?!) [...]
This is going to be a short list, folks. Mama is so sleep deprived this week. (I’m telling you right now, PMS + a couple of childbirths + nearing 40 = WHACKADOODLE. It seems I’m not the only one, either. What gives, you all? Is this happening to you too?) 1. This video of toddlers [...]
I have this little list…okay, it’s a big list. A huge list. A COLOSSAL LIST of post ideas inspired by your comments on previous posts. Have you ever asked me a question or had a post suggestion, and I responded with an enthusiastic thumbs up? “Yes! That’s a great idea! I’ll get right on it, [...]
1. Think about it: Would you worship Don Draper if he resembled, say, Buddy Hackett? No. You would accost him and say, “Listen buddy [or Buddy], you are simply not handsome enough to be this dreary.” – Simon Doonan. Oh, how I love Simon Doonan, and this article. 2. Yoga. YOGA. First off, you all, [...]
1. Someone PLEASE get me one of those ice cream cones. 2. Everlane silk blouse with band collar. Do it. I promise you’ll love it. (And if silk isn’t your thing, Everlane tees are the bee’s knees. I know – I own, uh, 5. Only $15!) 3. I read about Teux Deux last week via [...]
1. Well, that’s about the most clever washi tape idea ever. 2. So you know I have a major girl crush on Lisa Eldridge. Well, she’s recently published a bunch of videos on finding your perfect foundation. They are brilliant. Check them out here. 3. Here are a couple of my Style United posts from [...]
1. I recently sipped (guzzled) my first Paloma cocktail, and it was just about the most delicious drink in the whole entire world. So happy I found this recipe (and beautiful photos!) on Drizzle and Dip. It’s going to be my summer drink. (Yes, I’m already planning things like that.) 2. Sorry I’ve been a [...]
photo credit: Dinner: A Love Story 1. Jenny from Dinner: A Love Story pretty much rocked my ever-loving socks off when I bought her book last year, and she’s done it again with her 100 Rules of Dinner. You guys, if you click one link in the post, let it be this one. BRILLIANT. (Some [...]
1. Have I shown you all my new shoe closet? Wait…I don’t have a shoe closet. Oh well, I can still dream of this one. 2. Swimming! Who swims out there? I’m off the running for the next 6-8 weeks while I go to physical therapy for my back/tailbone issues, and I’m looking into some [...]
1. I can’t stop watching this video of Marina Abramovic and her past performance art collaborator and lover, Ulay. You can read more about her here, but this video was shot during the performance piece “The Artist is Present” at MoMA in 2010. This was her most popular performance piece – a 736-hour and 30-minute [...]
1. Eddie Redmayne, your freckles are beyond. 2. There are many things I love about Creature Comforts, but the Color Inspiration posts are the best. 3. I am feeling this curly, chin-length bob. 4. I must say, I’ve become relatively proficient in reading and breaking down food labels, and this post by A Dinner and [...]
The apple does not fall far from the tree, as Wito has developed quite an interest in two things, planning and writing. He journals all the livelong day – furiously scribbling while biting the whole of his bottom lip. In fact, when we have a disagreement, it’s not uncommon for him to run to his [...]
Okay fellow librarian wannabes, quick update on the book situation. I finished The Paris Wife last week, and, well, I find most books fit into one of two categories. 1. I can’t wait to turn the page because I’m completely enthralled in the book OR, 2. I can’t wait to turn the page because I’m [...]
I have a confession to make, and it’s quite a source of embarrassment for me. (Trust me, I would rather admit to something to effect of shoplifting or picking and ingesting one’s boogers than what I’m about to tell you.) Breathe, Sarah. I only read 5 books last year, and three of them were the [...]
