Pretty Ballerinas

Friday, April 30th, 2010

What girl doesn’t love a great pair of ballet flats?  Enter Pretty Ballerinas.  A family friend recently tipped me off to this website and it is fantastic. Pretty Ballerinas is a European company that just opened their first US store in NYC and with it comes a great website where you can order from [...]

Great Dress

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

By now anyone who reads my site knows what a huge fan I am of day to evening dresses.  They are a fantastic way to make dressing easy whether you are traveling or staying put.  This JCrew stunner fits the bill perfectly.  It is uber-luxe and feminine and will work with flat sandals (preferable metallic) [...]

Savvy Avenue

What a fabulous idea! I was tipped off to this site just in time for this awesome promotion from Knuth’s (which everyone knows is one of my favorite local boutiques!) that starts today. $30 for $60 worth of shopping, and it benefits a great cause. $1 from every purchase in April at Knuth’s will [...]

Sunny Days Ahead

Friday, April 23rd, 2010

Now that summer is right around the corner (I promise!) it is time to get serious thinking about sun protection. Any smart girl knows that sun protection isn’t just for the summer or vacation time as harmful UV rays are here year-round, even when it is cloudy. I am always playing around [...]

Lizzy and Jane

Friday, April 16th, 2010

A new boutique called Lizzy and Jane opened on Wednesday in Chagrin Falls and it is fabulous. Cleveland is always in desperate need of new, independently owned boutiques and it is always so exciting when one as great as Lizzy and Jane opens its doors! It is conveniently located right across from Gamekeepers [...]

For the Boys…

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

Since I live so close to Eton Collection, I had to check out the new Brooks Brothers store that just opened. The store is absolutely gorgeous, but what really caught my eye was the adorable Cape Cod-inspired menswear for summer. Maybe it is because I went to school in the South, but I [...]

Tory Burch Magnus Jacket

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

I really love Tory Burch’s new spring/summer collection. I really think her designs get better and better every season. I am especially loving this navy and white striped Magnus jacket. It can be worn so many different ways and is a perfect transitional piece. I really like the way it is [...]

Ella Moss Gumdrop Float Tee

Friday, April 9th, 2010

I had a lot of time to kill in Indianapolis this past weekend.  So, I of course decided to check out the downtown Nordstrom to do some pre-final four shopping.  After taking stock of my closet during my routine spring cleaning, I realized that I have a ton of basics but lacked easy, wearable twists [...]
