Move On: A Series on Wellness

September 20, 2013 Leave a Comment

No point in holding on to the past if the past ain’t working. I have always been one for reinvention. A lot of people say, “I’m not the exercise type.” Or “I just don’t have time to work out.” I myself am guilty of uttering both. But here’s the thing – we owe it to… read more

A Definite Ace

September 18, 2013 Leave a Comment

Cancer kills. It causes pain. And sadly it can be genetic. I can’t imagine what it would feel like to lose a parent to cancer and live with the fear that you could face the same fate. You can let that fear paralyze you or you can take it, look it in the face, and… read more

Face Time

September 16, 2013 Leave a Comment

  With a new school year upon us Mama has to make sure she gets her face on in time for carpool. I keep it very simple during the day. Elixir, BB Cream, under-eye concealer, chubby stick, and blush. For nighttime I like to jazz it up a little bit more while still sticking to a… read more

Favorite Fall Bootie

September 13, 2013 Leave a Comment

The wedge’s moment seems to have passed. Stilettos are wholly inappropriate for kicking around town. This small chunky heel on the other hand is ideal. Brownish-grey is showing up all over the editorial world – and on the feet is no exception. I adore everything Isabel Marant does but $650 for a boot that will… read more

Silence

Sometimes a deep hole is chiseled into our hearts. A hole that is filled with anguish, sadness, fear, and very deep grief. The hole remains. We ruminate and ponder – seeking answers. Eventually we cover the surface to protect the wound and allow it to heal. The hole underneath remains. The outer space is covered… read more

Of all the fall events – The Greenwich Land Trust’s Go Wild! family field day is my absolute favorite. It’s an afternoon for children of all ages hosted at the stunning polo fields at Conyers Farm.

Going once, going twice… SOLD!

I’ve never considered myself to be a gambling lady but our trip to a private back yard auction while in VT had me wondering if all this time I have been wrong… I arrived skeptical and left a believer. I got the fever! The day before the big event we previewed rows and rows of… read more

Too Cool For School

August 30, 2013 1 Comment

{Steven Alan Breaker Dress, Steven Alan Reverse Seam Shirt, ESP No. 1 Denim Cardigan} It’s time to head back to school! Even the miniest among us want to look their best. I can vividly remember my childhood “fall shopping trip to New York City” and my desperate attempts to convince my mom that a corduroy jumper… read more

Lovely Little Links

August 27, 2013 2 Comments

This world wide web is quite a place. One link just leads to another. Page after page we go… Here are some of my favorite findings from this week. Happy reading! 1) Dance is life. I like it when dance happens within life. Photographer Jordan Matter is spectacular. So are his “dancers”. 2) It’s no… read more
