2013 was quite a year. It certainly had its highs, and some lows, but as I look back on the past 12 months I am humbled and grateful for the experiences I’ve had, new friendships I’ve gained and lessons I’ve learned along the way. I can’t thank all of you enough for your love, support, encouragement and readership since I started this blog only 10 months ago (it feels like so much longer than that!). The end of the year always makes me reminisce so I thought I’d share some of my favorite moments from 2013. Thank you for joining me on this journey, cheers to new beginnings in 2014!
The crown braid was the “it” hairdo this year and I hope it’s here to stay because I absolutely love it. So bohemian, feminine and pretty it is the perfect undone updo. I rocked it a few times this year, for me, the crown braid is here to stay.
The headscarf was definitely my favorite accessory of the year. Hats come in a close second (particularly this one), but there’s something about a scarf that’s so feminine. Some of my favorite looks are here, here and here.
This was such a fun contest hosted by Lucky (and thank you so much to everyone that voted). I was so flattered to be picked as the winner and the prize, the ultimate spa day with my Mom, was the icing on the cake.
I’ll be the first to admit I am not a sailor, nor do I know anything about it, but when my cousin sailed in the America’s Cup on Oracle Team USA I was glued to the TV every afternoon for two weeks. Rome and his team staged arguably the best comeback in sports history, and then we got to share a moment with the Cup back home. Sailing will never be the same!
Seriously, I die. Thanks to Covet Fashion I spent an amazing night in the City and met the sweet and gorgeous Rachel Zoe. In case you missed it, read about it here.

It has been two years since we finished converting our garage into a bedroom and bathroom. I remember when we bought the house and one of the first things Craig said was that we should turn the garage into living…
I first discovered the French brand Sézane a few years ago through the recommendation of a friend. She said the French brand “was totally my style” and I had to try it out. I immediately fell in love with the brand. I often get asked about sizing when shopping for Sézane and since it’s important to know when shopping for clothes at Sézane I’m sharing more about that today. Whether you’re a long time Sézane fan or a new shopper, today’s post is your ultimate guide to making your Sézane shopping experience easy and fun.
Yes we love Trader Joe’s for the dips, the snacks, delicious frozen meals, and the desserts, but can we all take a moment for the non-food items at Trader Joe’s. You’ve probably heard of a few, like the sunscreen that…
