I am painfully jealous of whoever dreamed up Tinsel Trading ( www.tinseltrading.com ). It is such a seriously fabulous website that I am thinking of booking a flight to JFK just to check it all out in person. I was browsing through one of my favorite mags, Domino (www.dominomag.com) when […]

I am going to give up explaining why every single thing I want to blog about right now involves a gift. I’m sure there’s some deep seated psychological issue going on right now but I’m going to get over it and hope my MasterCard isn’t tapped. Two amazingly elegant websites […]

Who Knew There Are So Many Shades! I am fascinated by how color trends take us by storm. One season it seems like the most popular color combo is chocolate and robin’s egg blue or chartreuse and the next season it’s red and beige. I know that event colors also […]

My pilates instructor, Tracey Mallett, just came out with her latest book – Sexy in Six: Sculpt Your Body With the 6 Minute Quick-Blast Workout (it’s on Amazon). I just got one for myself and a friend and of course everyone who sees the covers says the same thing: &quotoes […]

Being seven months and a half months pregnant and approaching the size of a small, squat tornado (I don’t say whale, because I am still moving fairly quickly), if I want to cook something, I want to cook it NOW. I will not hesitate to admit that at this point, […]
