LUSH is a fantastic place to visit when it’s autumn because their Halloween (fall) special edition bath products are highly sought after and frequently sold out before All Hallow’s Eve. Luckily I got sent a few treats from LUSH and I’m excited to share them with you! This new bath bomb, called Monsters Ball, smells of fruity lime and neroli perfume, starts off tingeing your bath with pink froth then settling into deep murky blue below. Lord of Misrule is…
As the name of my website suggests, I’m immediately drawn to anything pretty that sparkles and shines. And even as a child, I would stand on my tiptoes to peek into the brightly-lit display cases at my local jewelers, Helzberg Diamonds, and admire the glittering jewelry. It all comes full circle for me now, as I admire and play with the captivatingly unique designs from Effy Jewelry at Helzberg Diamonds. From the warm rose gold tones mixed with tanzanite, to…

The sun was setting over the beautiful lake and I got to explore a really cool amphitheater with the finest grass – it was like carpet. Rye, maybe?? This bag, this bag, this bag.…
I’ve had a love/hate relationship with paper for years. Diaries started and left unfinished….agendas that I would forget to write in but covet year-over-year. My current planning obsession began with a Kate Spade planner that then turned into a Filofax fancy, and then spiraled wildly out of control–I’m now in possession of several Louis Vuitton planners. Shameful. I decided to try my hand at the desk agenda despite finding and acquiring my “unicorn” – a Louis Vuitton GM agenda in monogram…
The Yves Saint Laurent foundation line has been as prestigious as it is pricey. But when I found out they had gone and released a cushion foundation overseas and it wasn’t available in the United States (yet) – well, let me tell you: I just had to have it. “The packaging is the best of any cushion foundation I’ve tried” The YSL “Le Cushion Encre de Peau” or Fusion Ink Cushion Foundation, SPF 23 PA ++ takes the well-received Fusion…
I thought I would share my July Favorites for 2016 with you! I had quite the stressful month – graduating, moving across the country to North Carolina, driving three days with the flu, and studying for two and a half weeks for my anesthesiology boards, which I took on July 29. I don’t know if I passed yet or not. I also started my first real job in medicine – as chief anesthesiologist at a regional hospital. It’s been stressful…
I’m so glad that I got to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale early because I saved hundreds of dollars on some pretty fab items. I’ll fully admit I loved EVERY SINGLE piece that I purchased, but these are my top 4 favorite fashion picks. If you’re thinking about pulling the trigger, act fast–things go out of stock quickly AND prices go up August 8. This Lush cross-strap long sleeved high-low top is that perfect mix between edgy and casual. I…

If you’re more mature or have…
