    The Fall Boots To Know

    Don’t expect me to ditch my over-the-knee boots anytime soon, but there are a few new boot styles popping up for fall, especially these knee-highs, that have captured my attention and affection.  I know—you may not have been expecting knee-highs to be back in the game yet, but here they are, and I can’t wait to rock my black leather & camel pair ASAP (because I have no self control and ordered both).  Marc Fisher has made a few versions of this boot in seasons past with the same vamp and heel style, so I already know they’re amazing.  Remember…

    Rachel Parcell Collection

    Are you familiar with Rachel Parcell and her collection of impossibly chic, classic clothing? If yes, congratulations, keep hoarding her timeless dresses (at excellent price points!) like it’s your job.  If not, stop what you’re doing, literally put down the La Croix right this second, and shop her incredibly stunning feminine pieces right now.  I just got this dress and intend to wear it until the end of time.

    The Best Layering Turtlenecks

    Speaking of sweaters, by now I think we’re all aware of my turtleneck hoarding.  I don’t hide it, it is what it is.  From September through April, I’m pretty much never not wearing one, either on their own or layered under… yeah pretty much everything. Dresses, button-ups, cardigans, other turtlenecks, you name it, I’ll turtleneck it.  So, in preparation for dipping temperatures, I thought I’d share three favorite places to score great layering turtlenecks at affordable prices. When you’re wearing them as often as I do, it’s nice to get them at a bargain, especially if you want to refresh…

    FAQ:  Wedding China

    A follower recently asked me if I registered for wedding china when Rich and I got married and if so, what pattern I chose.  The answer is yes!  Fun fact, I’m OBSESSED with china—have been since I was a little girl.  There are many patterns I love (I have many Royal Copenhagen pieces—both the Blue Fluted Plain and the Blue Fluted Mega), but my actual wedding china was a mix of Anna Weatherley pieces as follows: CHARGERS: Simply Anna Polka DINNER PLATES: Simply Anna SALAD PLATES: Old Master Tulips (there are 12 unique tulip designs) BREAD PLATES: Simply Anna Polka TEA CUPS: Simply Anna SAUCERS: Simply…

    My New Favorite Scent

    If you’re looking for an amazing new scent and/or a gorgeous gift, check out Jo Malone’s Basil & Neroli candle.  It’s long been one of their most popular scents, and I’ve been burning it day and night at home.  I even ordered a second one to have at the office because I’m so hooked!  They’re available at Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, and Neiman Marcus but I’ve also become completely obsessed with reading the story behind each scent on Jo Malone’s website.  So cool.

    On Broadway

    As many of you know, Rich and I go to Broadway shows every chance we get and just bought tickets to see The Band’s Visit next month.  The cast is amazing (including the super talented Tony Shalhoub, Katrina Lenk and John Cariani) and reviews thus far have been stellar.  Let me know if any of you have seen it already!

    Skincare Obsession

    As mentioned, I’ll be doing loads of skincare posts in the near future breaking down every process and product that you need to know about.  (Sidenote: I’ve been doing so much intense research on skincare over the past couple months, my mom said it looked like I was studying for finals over Christmas.  She wasn’t too far off.)  I will be doing a huge, comprehensive post on this product in the coming weeks, but thought I’d share a little sneak peek of the number one, hands-down, most mind-blowingly game-changing product I’ve ever tried: Biologique Recherche P50.  I’ve heard about it…

    If you haven’t seen this movie yet, STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND GO SEE IT RIGHT NOW.  An absolutely hilarious, heartbreaking, thought-provoking side to the infamous story you thought you knew.

    Delicious, Easy Recipes

    We recently had friends over for dinner and since I didn’t have a lot of lead-time, I made this stupidly-simple chicken recipe (aptly named “World’s Best Chicken”) with this super easy brussels sprouts and butternut squash combo on the side.  Both were huge hits and went immediately into my “favorite recipes ever” folder.  Highly recommend.

    Gorgeous LBD

    I spotted this gorgeous, super affordable off-the-shoulder LBD on my friend Jacey’s blog, and needless to say, my fingers couldn’t hit the buy button fast enough.  It’s nearly sold out on Amazon, but there are still lots of sizes on Nordstrom and Revolve.  Drooling over that lace back detail!
