Now that I have exhausted the dress market, it’s time to hit the shoes– and just in time for Shopbop’s summer shoe sale (up to 70% off). Looking for a pretty wedge, a simple sandal, or a fun flat- now is the time to check out brands like Loeffler Randall, Staud, and Alexandre Birman. I…
I have a dress that I love to wear when nothing seems to look right. It’s crisp poplin cotton with pockets, an elastic waist and it’s black (similar one above). A little black dress is always a classic choice (even during the summer) and can make a statement, especially when paired with a glowing summer…
Happy weekend! It is HOT HOT HOT here in Connecticut, so I am staying inside until further notice! And to keep me busy I will be hitting ULTA to celebrate National Lipstick Day (no joke) with 40% off lip products– think lip liner, lipstick, gloss, and lip balms. Below is a special Saturday Snippets focusing…

I am switching it up this weekend, focussing on the Anniversary Sale going on at Nordstrom–think huge savings on just about everything on their site. Since I am a huge fan of Nordstrom, this is music to my ears. The sale covers every category: house & home, designer shoes, beauty, fashion, and handbags & jewelry. Happy Shopping– sale ends…
Happy Friday! This post was inspired by our latest vacation in Maine when an afternoon rain shower led to a double rainbow that looked like it ended on our lawn. Whether you prefer the primary colored version or a muted rainbow spectrum, there is an option for everyone here. Looking for a bold statement piece…
The past few weeks here in coastal Connecticut have been brutal! We have had over seven days in a row of sunny, hot, and humid weather. So, recently I’ve tried some new water and gel creams that hydrate without the heavy feeling of a thick moisturizer. Some brands call them “cloud creams,” and some are…
