It is undeniable that heart shaped accessories and heart prints are back in style. Heart shapes have filtered in and out of favor when it comes to fashion, particularly in jewelry. In the past these pieces have been marketed mainly towards men to purchase as gifts for a significant other. The age old line of …
January is the most optimistic month of the year. This is the time when we all evaluate ways that we could become better versions of ourselves than we were the year before. Many new year’s resolutions are centered around our health. Gym memberships soar and treadmills are packed with people making new commitments to themselves …
In the beginning, I didn’t want Lucy. It was either the tail end of 2005 or early in 2006. I was right in the middle of a decade in which I was completely lost, angry, and broken in ways I hadn’t come to realize yet. It’s not a time in my life that I often …
When I was in the first grade I was tasked with the most difficult job of creating my very own Mother’s Day card. I was issued a highly sofisticated piece of construction paper and craft supplies to make it fancy. While all of the other kids were engulfed in a cloud of Elmer’s glue and …
Ahh fall. The season where the warm weather turns cool, the daylight fades, and the internet becomes abuzz with proclamations of sweater weather! I have to admit that while I am partial to summer weather, fall fashion is my favorite. Fall gives you the opportunity to really ramp up your fashion game by layering fun …
I am always on the lookout for a good eye catching piece. A statement top is one of the best weapons in our fashion arsenal to create an elevated look without a lot of effort. The perfect statement top is one that is attention grabbing, versatile enough to wear with many pieces from casual to …
A couple of weeks ago my mom asked me to help her find a new black bag for the season. As I went down the rabbit hole of my favorite retailers I found that this season has so many wonderful styles of bags that deserve some attention. After all, a bag can make or break …
One of the places you will likely find me is an art museum. I could spend all day in one just staring at all of the beautiful paintings and sculptures and thought provoking installations. I come from a family full of people who are incredible artists, musicians, thespians, and even published authors. Growing up in …
Drinking and online shopping is basically the equivalent of going grocery shopping when you are hungry. There are no inhibitions there to tell you that you don’t need to buy those shoes or that bag or conversely that family sized bag of Cheetos. I’ve made some of my favorite fashion purchases and also some of my greatest blunders peering into the bottom of a wine glass so I’m starting a new series: Things the wine made me buy.
The resurgence of the cut out makes for a chic summer
I think we can all agree that fashion is an expression of self. Fashion trends often reflect the times that we live in and I find that to be extremely relevant now as the world emerges from seasons of lockdowns and restrictions. In 2020 we saw many designers leaning in to loungewear and basics. Now …
I believe that true art knows no rules, fashion included. I’m a huge fan of mixing styles and patterns in unusual ways but I know that not everyone is comfortable making daring combinations in their wardrobe. One of the most common questions I get asked is “do these pieces go together?” Im seeing a lot …

I love a good fancy party. I would honestly live off hors d’oeuvres and champagne if it was at all healthy or socially acceptable. There always seem to be leftover ingredients when hosting a gathering so why not turn your Saturday night bites into a lovely brunch the next morning? One of my favorite bites …
Just some pics from a night out for Sam’s Birthday
In honor os St. Patricks Day here are my favorite green things!
One of my dearest friends got married in the most glorious surprise wedding (best surprise ever)! I was asked to take the bouquet home and preserve it for her so I decided to try my hand at putting the flowers in resin so that they would last forever. The project turned out great! This is …

Just a few snaps from our Valentine’s Day date! This year was quite chilly so I decided to go with my favorite relaxed fit suit from The Frankie Shop. I paired it with a simple white cami, my lavender Bottega Veneta mules, and the cutest pair of heart shaped earrings by Brinker & Eliza. What …
Nice weather just calls out to me for a rooftop gathering with friends. I think that there are so many opportunities to get dressed up that get overlooked these days. Maybe it’s a birthday or you are celebrating an accomplishment or maybe it’s just Tuesday and you want to wear a certain piece of clothing. …
