I am so excited to be heading to Paris at the end of this month for a whole week. And even more, I cannot WAIT to wear some of my favorite outfits in the most chic city in the world. Naturally, I had to buy a few things to augment my wardrobe and make it worthy of France. Which is how I found IfChic, a website that makes shopping fun. You collect coins each time you visit the site until the 24th of the month, when you get to use them to shop! Talk about gaming the system! Read on for more details!
Can you believe it's already May and that Mother's Day is Sunday?! Me neither! Lucky for me, there are several moms in my life - my mom, my grandmother, my boyfriend's mom, friends who have babies - so I needed to come up with a pretty diverse set of gifts to give across that group of women. And just in case you're looking for a little inspiration, I thought I'd share these Mother's Day gift ideas with you too. Let's just hope my mom doesn't read this before Sunday, and if she does - Happy Mother's Day, and one of these gifts is on the way!
Happy Derby Day, everyone! I hope you have some fun plans to drink mint juleps in big hats and fancy dresses today, and if you don't yet - may this lovely derby style dress and embellished head gear inspire you to go out and get some! I had so much fun customizing this dress - sleeve length and hem length - on eShakti and was so pleasantly surprised by the product I received. It fulfilled my wildest derby style dress dreams and is perfect for my plans today (friends + bar). It even inspired me to make this derby hat! Read on for more details!
It's officially wedding season, friends, and I've been invited to quite a few this year. I'm at that age where 4-5 weddings per year is normal - and stressful! What will I give them? How do I behave? What if I need to leave early???? I turned to my resident expert on all things etiquette and organization - Claire Kurtz of The Well-Organized Woman (@CKWOW) - to make sure I'm planning ahead correctly and - *most importantly* - acting as a gracious wedding guest for all of my dearest friends on their special days. Read on for wedding guest etiquette!
In my role as Beauty Contributor for one of the top Chicago blogs, ChiTown Fashionista, I get to test and try out a lot of different products and services around town- including my most recent adventure to get a manicure while at the airport. It was awesome - and SO relaxing. If you're traveling for Memorial Day weekend or planning your summer vacation already - think about saving your mani-pedi for when you're waiting for that flight!
