Hidden Pierced Earrings $80 - Swarovski

Dsquared2 C069 $1379 - Zappos Couture

Kara By Kara Ross Enamel Cuff with Gemstones $350 - Bloomingdale's

Abydos Dress $228 - Anthropologie

I love when I present segments of items that can be worn during the day and then work straight into the night. When it comes to cute dresses that are femme and waiting to get dressed up, Anthropologie is a great go to store! Not only is it fun to shop in the store or online, but they have a lot of to choose from. I love this Abydos dress which reminds me of something that has a bit of an Egyptian look. I love the sash and that it seems like such an easy dress. When paired with this gorgeous bronze cuff you're half way to being completely accessorized! Of course you can always add a little more. The Swarovski Crystals have an elegant style that creates a great silhouette against your neck and the heels - this pair from DSquared2 is absolutely stunning. I love the pops of gold and the natural element to this shoe as well. You can go from day to night whether you're heading off to a cocktail party or simply going out with your significant other!

Trendy Thursdays: Give Your Face the Boots

Nov06

During Fashion Week, it's more than the fabulous clothes and parties, I love being in the tents and getting introduced to new products. As I walked around the various booths, I came in front of Boots. I knew them to be a store that sold various skincare, beauty products, etc. But I was surprised that the line called No7 was their own line. I was given a moisturizer for day and night and I have been using it since Fashion Week! I love how fresh my face feels and as I received a full sample, I know that when it's time to get another one, I can either go to Boots or I can get it at Target. This is affordable and attainable skincare that will make your face glow everytime you apply the creams! This has made my skin look very refreshed and I honestly feel that I am getting a mini spa everytime I was my face! So although this post is late in coming, I wanted to spend a few months with this product before sharing it with all of you!

Trendy Thursdays: Veggies Are Essential

Oct23

Yes To Carrots sounds like a campaign that attempts to encourage children to eat their veggies - more specifically, carrots as I always felt that they were great to eat since they were so colorful and not at all imposing. Well Yes To Carrots is a campaign in that it uses carrots, tomatoes and cucumbers; however, they are intended for your face, body, hair and hands! Yes to Carrots rejuvinates you naturally and has super cute packaging. I have tried many of these items and I love how it makes my skin not only feel soft but the organic veggies are use in conjunction with the Dead Sea! Using such a mineral rich series of beauty products can only make your skin look that much more amazing.

There are two elements to this line that I truly love - they are available in such places as Walgreen's, Target, Drugstore.com, Duane Reade, Meijer and more which is perfect as you know you can get your hands on it! The second is that the success of Yes To Carrots, encouraged them to diversify with Yes to Tomatoes which absorbs oils and Yes To Cucumbers which is a coolant for sensitive skin! I love making sure that all skin types have something that they can use and who knows what they will think of next.

Sippin Saturdays: The Perfect Mojito

Jul26

I remember when I tried my first Mojito and I thought that I had found my signature drink. Oh fickled taste buds, the love affair didn't last. Somehow I returned to my Gin and Tonic and wondered if I would find a signature drink that I wouldn't stray from. Well, this weekend, I will try to make Raspberry Mojitos which may in fact be my drink for the summer and hopefully a hit at many housewarmings, game nights and more. I am always excited to try something new and this drink recipe and many others, are available on Cocktail Times which is my go to place for the best drinks and meals that you would want to incorporate into a future function! So if this drink doesn't hit the spot, there are plenty of other ones that you will love making as you begin to play bartender! I love that this recipe is simple and that there are so many fresh ingredients as well.

Raspberry Mojito Pitcher
Ingredients:
- 6 oz Cruzan light rum
- 4 oz Rock Candy Syrup (or simple syrup)
- 6 lime halves
- handful of raspberries
- 30 - 40 sprigs of fresh mint leaves
- club soda

Build in mixing pitcher. Press 6 lime halves and simple syrup. Add rum, mint leaves, raspberries, crush, fill with ice. Stir and top with club soda.

Treasure Tuesdays: THINK CITRUS ~ Bubble Jewelry

Mar04

Bubblebracelet I love the idea of having themes. It's like when you walk into certain stores and although they have a lot of clothes they co-ordinate everything by color. So if you feel like you're in a light blue mood, you can go to that section and see all the shirts that fall within this color scheme. That was my intent when I began thinking of thematic posts by color for this spring and summer. Nothing is more fun than being able to look at posts that stay within a set color scheme or idea whether it's clothing, something for the home or even wherever you're going to eat.

Today, I bring this super cute Bubble Cuff from Sikara & Co which not only appeared at Magic in Las Vegas, but they had a case where they showcased some of their pieces as well. I remember when I first saw this company, I actually had a booth next to them at Shecky's Girl's Night Out in NYC. From that day, I became a fan and I was pleased to see their showcased pieces at the trade show. So, I am proud to include this piece within this month's concept, THINK CITRUS.

This cuff has over 50 bubbles of Amber showing it in variety of hues. This piece is truly an investment piece since it is able to transition from season to season and I love the pops of green that also come in as well. This can be dressed up and down is a fashion essential for your wardrobe. Take a moment to check out more pieces from Sikara & Co.
