Happy New Year! I apologize for being late in providing updates. Basically, one of my boys brought home a terrible illness just before the Christmas vacation. I felt very weak and tired for two days, and my whole body was aching (and I do not usually get that sick). As a result, I got delayed […]

What to Wear for the Holidays – Part 1
Since Christmas and New Year’s Eve are in less than two weeks, I have decided to write about what to wear for these two main events. This post is going to focus on dresses and jumpsuits. Last year, lace, brocade and sheer panels were the main trends for the Holiday Season, and they are still […]
Continue readingThemes in Jewelry Design: Coins, Eyes and Bullet-Shapes
I am already planning what do this weekend. One of the things I am planning to do is to read George R.R. Martin’s The Princess and the Queen. I miss the days in which I did not have anybody asking me for cookies, apples, grapes and juices all the time. Back then I had time […]
Continue readingGraphic Tees and Sweatshirts
Graphic tees are one of those clothing items that some women do not like to wear. They are considered too “casual” and it is not something that most women can use after a certain age. I love graphic tees, and I confess I am very lucky still to wear them with jeans and maxi skirts. […]
Continue readingBurgundy, Oxblood, Aubergine and Loafers
A great colour for fall is burgundy. This colour trend came back last year, and it is still popular. However burgundy is not the right colour for everybody and that includes me.

We all love track pants since they are very comfortable to wear. I think they are a must if you are a mother with little kids that keep you running around. I always wear one at home. However, there is a change now. Track pants can be worn out of the house not just for […]

The weather is still nice here in Massachusetts. Although the temperature seems to be the lowest in the early morning, it is still warm during the day. However, this nice weather will come to an end very soon so it will be time to wear some very nice accessories for the coming winter. Before having […]

I decided to write something today since I have been very busy last week watching the whole first season of Da Vinci’s Demons. My husband and I enjoyed watching it. However, it is not for everybody. Earlier today I had to leave my youngest son at the daycare for the very first time. He started […]
Continue readingGeometric Shapes in Jewelry: Crescents
Crescents and fringes have been very common concepts found in jewelry design since last year. I like crescent shapes. However, when it comes to fringes, I like them not to be in excess. I think fringes look pretty on bracelets though. There are some selections online that I would like to share. Of course, my […]
Continue readingFall 2013 Trend: Tartan Prints and Plaids
Hello everybody, Plaid seems to be everywhere this fall. Tartan / plaid patterns have always been found in cotton / flannel shirts, coats and maxi skirts. I am a big fan of maxi skirts with tartan prints, and I own two of them. I am in love with them because of their 90s vibe (they […]
