MZ Wallace totes Supergoop sunscreen Zimmerman skirt Hat Attack hat Cape Robbin slides Vacation to a wam clime couldn’t happen sooner. My guess is its the balmy 19 degrees when I got out of bed this AM. And the holidays. They are amazing, and although Hannukah just started last night, I am already exhausted from it all. As a family, we routinely take a ski holiday out west but the overall vote this season is to be heading where it’s warm. It seems like all of us want to go somewhere to relax, unwind, read a book, and just chill. Then, I started coming up with a vacation edit I could live by. I am on board this year to do less, not...

Gridlock Alert

11 Dec 2017

Henri Bendel micro tote bag on sale! New York City of late has been so congested traffic-wise that it really makes me and the rest of us go batty! Because of the constant new construction sites going up, it is difficult to get around. The streets are are a mess, walkways are interrupted, and the honking doesn’t help. As a result, walking anywhere is a hassle. Maybe take a ride in a taxi?! Fah get about it! It’s a sheer nightmare. It’s gridlock alert days folks. Welcome to the holidays in New York. Factor in the tourists, and all I want to do is stay home. Another reason I want to stay indoors, is the freezing cold weather that hit the Northeast. If... Read More

Relaxation Gifts At Holiday Time

09 Dec 2017

Shop Relaxation Gifts at Holiday Time First of all, this crazy hectic time of year drives me crazy. There are so many plans and commitments, in addition to work, and the holidays. It seems like everyone is overworked, over-stressed, and constantly overwhelmed. And it’s true. While you may know how to handle stress, perhaps it’s a parent who’s still working their stressful corporate job, or a close friend whose whole life seems to revolve around her graduate degree. Or that person who just deserves a break but doesn’t get one. When it comes to these special stressed people in our lives, the perfect gift to give during the holiday season is the gift of relaxation. Even people who aren’t totally overworked and stressed...

Stephanie’s Ultimate Wish List

06 Dec 2017

Frankie Shop wine cropped sweater, shop here and here Hermes belt Henri Bendel micro tote bag Madewell jeans It’s officially December! And 5 days in. And here we are deep into The #holidayseason. Holiday lists have always struck me as strange. It’s akin to providing someone with a list of “things” you would like to receive to show your love for them. Would it be better to not receive anything at all? Or provide them with your own list to avoid any type of anxiety? Not avoiding issues here, but these are some tips that I don’t always stand by, but they seem to work. Check out Ebay! They have a new gifting section, FYI. Start early. Because waiting to be showered with gifts... Read More

10 Investment Worthy Bags On Sale

04 Dec 2017

Chanel bag The best time to invest in a great handbag is right now. There are lots of sales going on, from designer to mass market, and if you are rough on your bags like I am, it is the perfect time to upgrade. I know shopping can get boring, but let’s face it. As much as we want things to stay the same, with time, your carry alls don’t look as good as they used to look. While I love clothing, I am especially fond of accessories because they make your outfit pop. As a result, I invest in bags that probably will go with just about anything. Leather bags have the most staying power, while suede and faux fur not so much. Here... Read More

Savvy Addition, Black and Brown Styled Together

01 Dec 2017

Vince leather jacket, Shop similar Minnie Rose sweater LPA velvet trousers Zara boots, Shop similar YSL bag There are so many fashion rules out there, too many to list, and so many to break. Wearing white after Labor Day. Who abides by that anymore? Another fashion rule, don’t wear socks with sandals. I am all for keeping warm in the winter. Don’t wear miniskirts after age 40. Have you seen Sofia Coppola lately? Match your shoes to your bag and belt. While it’s good to have a uniform, I can’t imagine something more unappealing. In addition, I am big believer in wearing what looks good on you. And only you. Because I am told something, doesn’t mean it’s right. Just recently, I have been updating... Read More

Same... Read More
