    Peter Pilotto introduced his capsule collection for Target on Sunday, and it is incredibly chic. The brand’s use of prints is flattering and playful. I picked up a long sleeve tee (shown above) and two skirts. The t-shirt is sure to be a wardrobe staple. I wore it as soon as I got home. It’s…

    I have always been a fan of bold lipstick, but have never been comfortable pulling it off. I’ve always felt my lips were too thin. Every few years, I buy a shade of red impulsively, try it on at home and then, keep it in the back of my make-up drawer for several years before…

    I haven’t written a post for Fashion Friday for a while. First, I had that baby, and my body was so different that shopping wasn’t much fun. Even though it’s still not quite the same, I was really looking forward to talking trends with you again. Unfortunately, I’m not really feeling much of what’s in…

    In college, my friend Brooke told me that she always painted her toes red in the fall and pink in the summer. At the time, I remember thinking this was a very chic and elegant idea. And although I do stray from it, I still find myself searching for the perfect pink every summer. Currently,…

    I’ve run across some new beauty products that I’m obsessed with. The first is Benefit’s “They’re Real” mascara. I’ve been a longtime user of Maybelline’s Great Lash, but this one is smudge proof and gives your lashes great volume and length. I’ve also fallen for their Watts Up, highlighter. Smoothed across cheekbones and brow bones,…

    On Sunday, Target debuted their capsule collection with Prabal Gurung. Centered around a theme of love, the pieces offer unusual prints, thoughtful seaming and bright, saturated colors. I checked it out in person early Sunday and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of fabrics and attention to fit. When I initially saw the collection, I didn’t…

    Watching the E!’s red carpet, I was sort of wringing my hands over the ugly, but after some online research, I was able to see a full range of well-dressed celebs. The coverage had me thinking there were lots of safe choices, but upon further examination, I was pretty impressed with the variety. I’m not…

    There’s something about painted nails that makes me feel instantly put together. My hair can be undone. I can have a completely bare face, but when I look at my nails, I feel fairly glamorous. It’s always been that way for me. My new favorite polish is No More Film from Essie. It’s a dark…

    I don’t know about you, but after the mad dash of the holidays, I could use some pampering.  Like a lot. Soaking in a tub of bubbles seems pretty perfect right now. Making your own beauty products can be a lot of fun, so I did some searching for an easy bubble bath recipe. I…
