Today I wanted to share some of what’s been happening on my IG lately starting with BuDhaGirl jewelry.  Ok, so for those of us who know BuDhaGirl jewelry happen to adore our beloved BuDhaGirl bangles for all the fabulous obvious reasons … but did you know that their iconic All Weather Bangles® are actually TSA-PROOF?  YUP ~  not only are they gorgeous, weightless, soundless and waterproof … they’re also TSA-proof so there should be NO reason for you to have to remove them while going through security.  I’m calling them the perfect travel/vacation compa ..read more

Chico’s newest additions has me playing with proportions … and I’m loving it! I mean ~ their cropped green tweed jacket paired with their high rise wide leg jeans is really just so good.  [ tweed jacket | smocked top | wide leg jeans | sunnies ]   And this sateen vest paired with the wide wide leg cropped sateen pants and then oversized ruffled collar jacket with the slim cut pants … EQUALLY fab! [sateen vest | sateen cropped pants | modern heels | sunnies | bracelet ]  [ slit ankle pants |  satin ruffle collar jacket | bracelet ]   Got a fave?? … &n ..read more

Pax Philomena believes that well crafted clothing inspires joy and confidence … and that’s exactly how when you are wearing their pieces. You may have spied them in Vogue, Harpers Bazaar, US Weekly and/or O’ Oprah Magazine (who recently highlighted their Isadora Maxi kaftan dress) but if you hadn’t you’re spying them HERE now.  I first became aware of Jean Marie Clarke’s, the founder of Pax Philomena, stunning kaftan’s from social media but had no idea that the brand also offers dresses, tunics, ponchos,kimonos, coats, pajamas, loungewear and accessories ~ all in such FAB ..read more

Today I want to share two fun new brands  to put on your radar … starting with AFRM.  AFRM stands for an affirmation of one’s self and one’s style. Their edgy pieces are designed to capture your spirit, your moments, your mood.  Now ~ I LOVE their patterns and think they are quite FAB. AND I also think their designs are pretty awesome (the faux-leather cargo skirt is extra cool), but I don’t naturally gravitate towards body-hugging cuts. Gotta say, tho, I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable I actually felt wearing these pieces blow.  Goes to show that I ..read more

FRIENDS ~ are you seeking an eco-LUXE cleaning experience?? Well then, you MUST meet L’AVANT COLLECTIVE; creators of high performing, eco-friendly, plant-based cleaning products … that actually  work! They have a full suite of fab home care products that includes  laundry detergents, dish & hand soaps, home fragrances, sprays, super cool lucite trays + MORE!  I’ve started using items from their Laundry Collection and they are totally up my alley.  I’m quite obsessed with their FRESH LINEN  laundry detergent that’s formulated with powerful, plan ..read more

Last week I took a quick trip over to the Tucson Gem Show followed by a brief stop in LA. The Tucson Gem and Mineral Show is an annual event that takes place in Tucson, Arizona and is one of the largest mineral shows in the world. If you’ve never been (admittance requires a wholesale license) it can be quite overwhelming and, frankly, SUPER tiring.  It didn’t help that a direct flight to Tucson was unattainable and that my first flight took off at 5:00 am.  Sigh.  Ever the comfy one when flying, here’s what I wore on the plane along with a few similar looks to what I wore.&nbs ..read more

Every year I assess what my readers were drawn to from the previous year.  I come to my final conclusions based on items/brands that are most purchased, most clicked upon, most commented on and most questions I receive via email about them.  Although I’ve determined the top 5 favorites items/brands from last year, today I’m sharing the most commented on and inquired about and that turns out to be  ANYTHING from Clara Sunwoo, especially anything from their Liquid Leather Collection.    Below I’m sharing 5 pieces from their  Liquid Leather Collection   ..read more

HAPPY FRIDAY, Friends! I want to share with you  today a super fun brand that I think you’ll really enjoy, Beth’s Buckles. Beth creates gorgeous hand-crafted belt buckles from a variety of cowhides, embossed leathers, exotic skins and stones. She also up-cycles fabrics and leathers from Designer purses, garment bags, etc. and will create fab buckles out of those, as well.  OH ~ and should you ever require a custom buckle, she’s your gal! Below are two of her up-cycled Designer buckles that I’ve recently acquired and, frankly, am  LOVVVVV-ING: Beth makes every ..read more

Mother Nature has been doing her snow-thing lately and, if you’re not wearing pants, this season is begging for a fab statement midi/maxi skirt. Both of mine below are from Karen Millen and BOTH happen to be on sale!   [ STRETCH denim woven maxi skirt ]  [ Ponte Harware Midi Skirt ]  These are some of the most exciting skirts I’ve ever donned. I feel that everyone needs at least one really great midi/maxi skirt so that when you wear them everyone will say … 100% YESSSS!     Perhaps one of these skirts below will be that one?  Just click ..read more

Tick Tock, friends! Time has just about run out for ordering Holiday gifts online to arrive in time.  But if you’re still seeking a few last minute gifts, as of writing, the below fun items are still available.  Just click on an image to shop.   My hubby and I are leaving today for a trip to Italy.
