Sometimes life gets the best of me. Professional deadlines, the demands of raising children, managing household responsibilities and last but definitely not least, making time for my husband and even me. When things run smoothly, life is blissful and I…

Walk into any NYC closet and you will find a sea of black and grey. While these are easy, go-to colors – this season you will find many pinks and burgundy tones to add dimension to your wardrobe. These hues…
Wishful Thinking
This month’s list is a wish list of sorts – not necessarily about things I am coveting, (yet that one does exist!) but things that I’d liken to happen but unlikely. Enjoy!
Get Ripped!
