With the holidays around the corner, it’s time to start wrapping up– in DVF. There is nothing more iconic than the Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress, so I chose to feature it here in Fashion Focus. All of these dress looks are appropriate for a holiday cocktail soiree or dinner party. The black and white…

Each summer, my daughter and son go to sleepaway camp in Maine, where the only form of communication is through letter writing.

Just a reminder of a few blog favorites that I am still loving!
Meet Me
Welcome to Whit & Whimsy- a lifestyle space I created to share my favorite books, beauty buys, fashion, and more. I post about trusted products I love, items I lust after, and treasures I give as gifts. Expect to hear about the latest thriller read, maxi dress, simple meal, and best new mascara-- and there will always be a touch of leopard print, and a monogram or two. I hope to connect with readers by offering inspiration and suggestions through content that is classic, chic, shoppable, and a bit whimsical.
