This is a sponsored post. I attended Strut: The Fashionable Mom’s Show as a Cottonelle Ambassador. All opinions expressed are always mine. New York Fashion Week just ended and it was a treat for me to go; I had left the crazy, whirlwind life in the corporate fashion world a few years ago so it truly is fun to come back as a “guest”. This year, I attended Mercedes-Benz New…
I was given Coolibar samples for me and my family to try out for this post. All opinions expressed are mine. We are very big beach people. We enjoy being in the sun, sand and water. Even though we are very thorough with our sunscreen, we should take extra precaution when we are out in the sun. This year, we’ve taken a two trips that really warranted extra sun protection:…
Sometimes it pays having been part of the fashion industry for 15 years. This is one of those times. My old co-worker and supervisor invited me to the Rebecca Taylor Fall/Winter 2013 show at Highline Studios in New York City’s Meatpacking District. The show was feminine with an edge, beautifully understated, and the best part? Wearable. There was a moto-edge with leather, exposed zippers, and studs; but all balanced with subtle…
We like to celebrate our Hallmark holidays casual, but we also want to look nice and crisp. For this Father’s Day, Chaps was gracious enough to give The Hubby a new Father’s Day outfit to celebrate being a great Dad. Michael kept it simple and classic by choosing Chaps’ Classic Fit Gingham-Checked Button Down Shirt in Blue and the Flat-Front Shorts in Blue Fish. These styles are easy pieces that can go…
What to wear on a date night or a girls night out? For me, that usually calls for a chic but comfortable look. As you can tell from my fashion posts, I tend to go towards trendy but comfy. I can’t be out there feeling all self-conscious and wondering if I look good. I have go-to brands and silhouettes that I know look good on me with some statement accessories….
Living in New York City means that I wear neutrals. And a lot of them. When the warm weather hits, I do lighten up—but I still do pack on the neutrals. It’s easy for a busy mom like me. I know that I can pull out a top, cardi, a pair of pants and some accessories and know that I look good and put together. LABEL+thread Ribbed Shawl Cardigan…

I love beauty products — especially those that promote healthy skin care. My friend, college buddy and sorority Little Sister — yes, I was in a sorority! — Minal, introduced me to Arbonne products when she became an independent consultant several years ago. Along with being a consultant, she is an occupational therapist and a mom of two very active boys. I actually tried the Arbonne products several years ago…
For most New Yorkers, including me, our closets are filled with blacks, greys, browns, whites and every shade of neutral in between. But there comes a time when you just have to break away from the earth-tone pack, shake out the winter grey doldrums and perk up with some spring brights. Luckily, Chaps’ spring collection is full of colors that will help brighten up your wardrobe. My picks for the season?…
Our younger daughter, S, is the ultimate fashionista who marches to her very own stylish drummer. She doesn’t care what people think — she wears what she wants to wear. And that’s why we love her so much. And that is why she loves Polkadot What leggings. Ever since she got her very own pair, she has worn them non-stop with (almost) every outfit. In fact, today she wore her…
