Golden Slippers

TOM's Gold Glitters will jazz up any summer outfit without sacrificing comfort. Plus, with their One for One program, with every pair of shoes you buy a new pair goes to a child in need. Fashionista plus philanthropist ... need I say more?

USA... USA... USA...

I almost didn't write this post because it pains me to remember the events of the Ghana vs. US World Cup game on Saturday. But aren't these jerseys the cutest gift for a guy in your life... be it your dad, boyfriend or brother? As I remember they did look pretty good on Landon.

Country Biking

I forgot to mention that we rode these adorable bikes to the wineries. Can you tell that I am reminiscing??? Meeting with the invitation lady today. I think we are going to make our own logo to stamp/ emboss everything with. Will post when it is finished. Very excited!

Suzi Says Feng Shui

Blue nails are my new obsession.

I love this new color from OPI's Hong Kong line for playful summer fun.

California Dreaming

Our trip to Cali is over, but we are still dreaming of the wine country, palm trees, and hilly San Fran. Enjoy the pics!

This was at a great vineyard called Demetria wayy up in the hills! Very Tuscan. We were so relaxed sitting out on the terrace and tasting the wines. Ben you are so cool in your shades.

Yep, we rented a red Mustang convertible for our winery transportation. Tre chic!

Happy Mother's Day!

Last day at GHRI

Today is my last day at Good Housekeeping. Very sad. I am going to miss these amazing people!

Time (or past time) to Register!

Last night we start our registry at Crate & Barrel and William-Sonoma. So fun! Don't you just love this satin copper Kitchenaid? Too bad I can only find it in the professional mixer.

Lovely Bride

Lovely bridal boutique just opened in the West Village. What an elegant name for a bridal boutique... I cannot wait to stop by. If you live outside of the city check out the blog Lovely: Bridal Fashion Inspiration.

La Boheme

The wedding date is set! November 13th, 2010. I am very excited to really get into the planning when I move home in May. I adore La Boheme headpieces. Old fashioned elegance.

Hot-weather Hummus

Doesn't this Hummus with Green Goo developed by Heidi Swanson of 101 Cookbooks look fabulous? She recommends serving with pitas, flatbread, lavash or even drizzling the green sauce over eggs.

I really want to bring back the saddle shoe... but who sells women's saddle shoes? How perfect with a breezy spring dress!
