    Skincare Tips

    I was overwhelmed by the positive responses to last week’s post on how to properly wash your face.  I’m so thrilled that these skincare posts are helpful and rest-assured, there’s a whole lot more coming your way!  As I explained in my first post debunking the top seven skincare myths, I feel like consumers are completely inundated by complete nonsense by skincare marketers.  After months of research and interviews with dermatologists, I’m so excited to share my learnings, which believe me, have been as surprising to me as they’ve been to many of you!  It’s not a great feeling knowing…

    The Prettiest Spring Dress (Perfect For The Office Too!)

    If you’ve followed this blog for long, you know that Reiss has been a favorite brand since day one.  I just spotted this gorgeous blush pink dress in their new arrivals section and audibly gasped.  It’s such a stunning, classic silhouette, perfect for a dressy day at the office, Easter Sunday, a baby’s baptism—basically any dressy event this spring and summer.  And that back v detailing?  Just icing on the cake.  Reiss typically runs small for me, so I’d suggest going at least one full size up.

    Easter Pumps

    My fingers pretty much couldn’t hit the add to cart button fast enough when I first spotted these floral Tory Burch pumps last week.  If they don’t scream Easter, then I don’t know what does.  Can’t wait to wear them all spring and summer.

    The Best Sleep Mask With Contoured Eye Cups

    Like many people with light blue irises, my eyes are super sensitive so even the smallest amount of light keeps me up/wakes me up.  I’ve tried just about every eye mask under the sun, and finally discovered this incredible $12 contoured sleep mask a couple years ago.  The eye area on each side is contoured outward so the fabric is not pressing tightly against your eyes which allows you to blink freely and open your eyes if you need to.  This also means that when you wake up in the morning, your eyelashes aren’t crimped or bent in weird directions.  If…

    The Best Affordable, Non-Iron Button-Down Shirts

    I am a bonafide hoarder of white button-down shirts.  Since they often get stained season to season, I’m always looking for affordable options and recently, I discovered these men’s non-iron button down shirts at Uniqlo which have quickly become a favorite.  As mentioned, they are indeed in the men’s section, but lucky for ladies, they go all the way down to size XXS.  Since the style right now is to be slightly boxy and masculine in silhouette, the fit is absolutely perfect and for under $30, I’ve hoarded them in every color. FYI, if you haven’t purchased non-iron button-downs before,…

    Binge Watch: Billions

    If you haven’t seen Billions on Showtime yet, call in sick and don’t go back to the office until you’ve watched every available episode.  The third season started last night and I can’t get enough.  For me, Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis are two actors whose films I will see with no questions asked.  I don’t need to watch a trailer, I don’t need to hear a plot.  If one of these two actors are in it, just tell me the time and place and I am THERE.  Needless to say, having both of them TOGETHER is completely dizzying.  Stop…

    The Softest Bathrobe You’ll Ever Own

    The brand Barefoot Dreams seems to be having a moment right now.  Maybe it’s because the Kardashians are obsessed with this blanket, maybe it’s because this cardigan has a casual 15 THOUSAND five-star customer reviews on Nordstrom,  or maybe it’s because they make the softest, most amazingly delicious knit products on the planet.  Who’s to say?  All I’m telling you is that I recently bought this bathrobe and I’ve never been so obsessed with a purchase.  I’ve been coming home from the office and wearing it around the house every night like a geriatric fool.  It is so fluffy, soft, and…

    The Dreamiest Scarves You’ll Use All Year Long

    My friend Helena just launched the most beautiful line of seasonless scarves.  They come in four stunning colors and are made from top-notch, super luxe cashmere. (Duh, because when it comes to quality HELENA. DOES. NOT. PLAY.)  These beauties are not just for cold weather months, I will be wearing mine while traveling all summer and also can’t wait to keep one at my desk.  Snag one before they sell out and thank me when you’re comfortably enveloped in a buttery cashmere wrap at your desk in July when it’s -50 inside your perpetually over-air-conditioned office.

    My Newest Handbag Purchase

    I had the pleasure of checking out Theory’s new spring collection last week and as a long-time devotee of the brand, it was definitely an I’ll take one of everything situation.  However, aside from the typical round-up of drool-worthy clothing, this bag caught my eye and I found myself incapable of leaving the premises without it.  Even in the summer, I always gravitate towards black accessories, so updating their popular black Whitney bag with that tortoise handle?!  Just TAKE MY MONEY ALREADY.  I truly believe that Theory is the unsung hero of the handbag game right now.  Their bags are really beautiful quality…
