Part of my shopping success this weekend included these pretty pink patent shoes. They also match my pink patent Lilly bag perfectly although I’m not likely to pair them together but I could. I also bought a pair in a matte muted gold almost like a tarnished silver. I am loving the square toe. For $69.00, why not buy two? With my cropped white jeans I also bought this weekend? Lovin’ that too. In the Kate Spade store (I love… [Read More]
I am loving this new Ann Veronica pattern‘Happy as a clam’.So summery. I can also recommend this double holder for your specs. Perfect for sunglasses and cheaters. I used to throw both in my bag unprotected. I know. My bad but I didn’t want to mess with two glass cases. I highly recommend this case for 16 clam-o-las.
After all our celebrations last week I have been in an ‘after-parties-let-down funk’ and have resorted to eating mass quantities of dark chocolate and chips and salsa as college boy returned to Boston and the new graduate headed for the hills with his gf’s family to camp. Suddenly, I was faced with my first real taste of the empty nest. I hated it. To trade one vice for the other I crossed over to the dark side of retail therapy… [Read More]
This scent is so fresh and summery it reminds me of stepping off the plane at Kona on the Big Island and having a lei of plumerias placed around my neck with a pina colada in hand.

If you’ve ever rented a bicycle on the island chances are you rented one from Young’s Bicycle Shop. I love the look of natural baskets on bikes. Since last going to Nantucket a couple years ago it has been my intention to order one and since it wouldn’t look good on a mountain bike, I’d like to use it to hold incoming mail in my laundry room. Just a little piece of the island where it’s least expected. European Market… [Read More]

There are some days Stubbs & Wooten shoes can do the talking for you. “I put the grrrr in swinger, baby. Yeah.” “I would rather be here than at work.” “I’m as cute as a bug!” “Shopping?

Monday will be Week 3 of my“All Things Summer Give-Away”and we’ll be having some fun in the sun.PLUS, it is also my birthday week and I’ll… [Read More]

All proceeds from the sale of the tote… [Read More]
