My brother-in-law is Greek, and the minute he joined our family, so did his inherent love for evil eyes. These symbols are said to protect us from evil and bring us luck (who doesn’t want both those things?!), and can be found everywhere…as ceramic wall-hangings, screen-printed on tote bags, in gorgeous jewelry, etc. I have had a glass evil eye…
It’s that time of year again…when it’s ok to look like an extra from a country music video and wear a teeny-tiny flag-print bikini! The 4th of July is so intrinsically “American” that it’s the one time I actually advocate for anything kitschy and cutesy and themed! The one thing I will say, though, is unless you plan on wearing…
I was talking with a friend the other day about how when she wears anything strapless in the summer, she feels a little “naked” up top. But if it’s hot enough out to wear a strapless jumpsuit or dress on its own, it’s also too hot to cover it up with a little jacket. Which is where a “statement” piece…
This week, I am going to a “white party” for a friend’s 50th birthday celebration. So basically everyone has to wear white, and everyone is freaking out (“I’m not tan enough,” “I didn’t buy anything white yet this season,” “what neutrals are ok to mix in?” etc, etc). I, funny enough, had already planned on wearing a new white strapless…
There is nothing better than a pair of sky-high nude shoes to make your legs look like they go on forever. But in summer, sometimes leather or patent leather look way too “heavy” and satin can look oddly overly formal. That’s where cork comes in! Cork is one of my favorite materials for summer sandals. It is skin-tone so it’s…
Anyone else sometimes feel like they were born in the wrong era? I 100% should have been an adult in the 1970’s…I want to wear (original) Halston, the most ridiculous platform heels, 20 coats of mascara, and dance the night away at Studio 54. So anything ‘70’s-inspired is MY inspiration. The other night at a fashion event, my off-white macrame…
Anyone who knows me at all knows that I have a closet full of a massive collection of summer maxi dresses. To me, a good maxi dress makes you feel “dressed,” it makes everyone (even little 4’11” munchkins like me) feel taller, and they are such an easy way to be perfectly put together all summer. Just add in some…
One of my personal favorite men’s shoe trends for this summer season is the return of the all-white “fashion sneaker.” Not an athletic sneaker, but also not a dress shoe. Somewhere in-between. There are a million different versions available at every price point imaginable, but I would suggest ones that are all white. Not a spec of other color. No…
I am, by nature, an organized person. I like lists, I like symmetry, and I like things to be in a certain order. Which is why “rainbow order” has always been visually appealing to me. The order of the colors make sense (prisms of color are the way they are because that’s how we see color best…in that order) and anything…
