So this post started out as a comparison of a few popular foundations. I gathered up all of the ones I owned, noting likes and dislikes for each one. I had listed about 10 different brands when I heard a few Youtube reviewers rave about Armani foundations. So, while in Sephora the other day, I…
A few weeks ago I conducted a poll on Instagram asking what style boot you would like featured on the blog. Drumroll please… western beat out slouchy for the Fall Footwear boot feature. The western-inspired boot trend is in full force (although, I do remember wearing ankle cowboy boots in college too). I started my…

I currently go to Forme Barre in Darien because I love the instructor rotations, I find the workouts effective and, most importantly, I am…
Last month’s Favorites under $50 was so popular, I decided to do it again, but this time with selections from H&M (and there were SO many). It’s not hard to find inexpensive items at H&M, however, all of these look like they cost much more. I tried to include some basics, along with some standout fall…
