the gift that keeps on giving…into 2022

It doesn’t take a lot to get a meaningful gift but it does take some thought! The best gifts are those that the receiver needed but would never have thought to get for themselves … Why not give the gift of style for an entire year?! You can do it and I can help! My current pricing structure is simple: either purchase an 8-hour or 12-hour service bundle, the time is good through December 31, 2022, and the time can be used for whatever

monogrammed gifts are perfect!

So when I happened upon these lovely monogrammed travel jewelry cases I had to share! Although I won’t be gifting them this year (I already have my girlfriend gifts secured….), they are the perfect, inexpensive favor. Why stop at the holidays? They’re perfect for birthdays too!!

how to be a good friend and gift-giver

Over the years, I’ve had to figure out what to get my gaggle of friends. I started out buying special gifts for each person and, frankly, that became time-consuming and expensive. Over the last few years, I’ve stuck with monogrammed gifts and that’s a hit ~ who doesn’t love to see their name or initials on something?! This year, I’m going in a different direction (so hopeful that my girlfriends don’t get mad when they read this…..lol). There are studies that

It’s a surefire hit…guaranteed! This Timex military watch is the latest collab with Todd Snyder and a winner! It’s understated, versatile, vintage styling with a modern twist, and presents a clean silhouette.

do something different for valentine’s day

I’m writing to advocate sending love to someone else this year on Valentine’s Day. Consider your girlfriends, your boys since childhood, the lady you’ve been crushin’ on but haven’t bothered to say anything to, or your kids (regardless of age)… It’s a made-up day anyway so make good use of it! Show your love and make someone feel special next Wednesday (and I find etsy does great at these kinds of gifts)… [show_lookbook_widget id=”384577″]

Valentine’s Day Gifts

I’m not even sure I really need anything but, in an effort to be a ‘team player’, I came up with a few things I love. What I figured out is that the list are actually items I need to amp up my everyday ‘feel good, look good’. While I’m newly susceptible to all things beauty (check out the lip scrub!), I’m partial to the wine decanter. It’s sexy, enables a positive socializing habit, and is part of my new
