Adding to my ever-growing collection of straw hats is one of my favorite things to do in early spring, when all the fashion lines start revealing their new designs for summer. (Someday I want to have an entry hall covered in hats, but for now I’m storing them in the back of my closet.) This year’s […]

It’s holiday party time, and you know what that means: open season for wearing velvet, feathers, beading, and yes, even a well-placed sequin. (Hey, they don’t call it the most “wonderful” time of the year for nothing.) We’ve scoured the racks at our favorite online boutiques to find 10 of our favorite party-ready dresses of the […]
I think artwork is something that a lot of people struggle with when it comes to interiors. A space doesn’t feel finished without it, yet it’s hard to know where to start. For millennials who are used to turning to the web as a first line shopping resource, options in the past have been… frustrating. […]

When imagining my dream home, the bathroom is the spot that’s often hardest to pin down: would I choose a spa-like minimalist look or go with some bold color scheme that makes a statement? After spending a few hours down the Pinterest rabbit hole (research!), I realized that incorporating color into a room doesn’t have to be over the top […]
Blame it on AM puffy eyes, trying to squeeze too many activities into my morning routine, or pushing the limits of my snooze button, but making a healthy breakfast isn’t usually high on my list of priorities in the morning. In the attempt to be kinder to myself (and start following years of my mom’s advice) I’ve started […]
While I’m more of a minimalist when it comes to my jewelry, a simple wristwatch has played a recurring role in my daily accessorizing for years. I’ll be honest, at first I simply loved the way it looked, but once I got in the habit of casually glancing at my wrist to check the time […]
Like many of you, I’m dedicating myself to a handful of workout goals in 2016, and since food is usually top-of-mind for me (ha) it begs the question: what should I be eating before exercise? When it comes to pre-workout snacks, I have a few requirements: a good mix of protein and carbs for energy, […]
Of all the rooms in my future dream house, the library is the one I think about most. Would it have a mix of paperbacks and hardback editions? Or would it be completely leather bound classics? Would I arrange them by genre, then author? Would there be room for a projector, and maybe a velvet […]
Just a few days out from Halloween and the anticipation around the office could be cut with a knife! Most of our Halloween prep — costumes, decorations, sweets — is checked off the list, which leaves us with the final to-do item: the booze. There’s absolutely no better way to spook your guests than with creepy crawly (but still delicious!) […]
It’s time to face the facts, people: summer is drawing to a close, and with it, those perfectly carefree weekends spent grilling and staying cool in a body of water. The happier news? We have one last blast for Labor Day next weekend, and (of course) I’m already planning our menu to celebrate. Since nothing feels […]
