Joules
I’m a sucker for a good pair of rain boots. I won’t tell you how many I own because you might judge me but, suffice it to say, I could live in London. Or Seattle. Or send some to people in each location and still be covered here. My daughter has inherited her mother’s obsession and…
Read MoreFavorite Flats for Spring
Spring is here! Hallelujah! The thing I’m most excited about? No socks, no boots. Free feet. When my friend asked me over a group text for suggestions for some new flats and everyone else weighed in, “me too!” I knew there was a post there. That and I spent hours finding the perfect shoes for…
Read MoreDisney World
Zach and I debated when to take Lilly to Disney for the first time. I was anxious to get there and begin her lifelong love affair. He was… not. We’ve established that it’s an extremely special place for me, warranting all new attire but he didn’t grow up going, isn’t really a ride person, abhors waiting in lines, crowds.…
Read MoreFloral Bomber Jackets
She’s Hollywood’s “It Girl”, a new Oscar winner and a fashion maven? Brie Larson can do no wrong. Which is why I wasn’t surprised when she showed up on Live with Kelly and Michael the morning after the Academy Awards, having not yet gone to sleep and still looking fabulous. Floral bomber, black skinnies and heels.…
Read MoreIn-Depth with Bobbie Thomas
You know her from The Today Show where, as Style Editor, she dishes about fashion and beauty but “professional girlfriend” Bobbie Thomas shares more than just the latest trends. We followed her journey to marriage and motherhood including a very public struggle to conceive via IVF. Now, with the same candor, vulnerability and kindness, Bobbie bravely opens…
Read MoreWild Bowl
I’m obsessed with Sweet Green. If you don’t know about this “salad place” yet, it’s locally sourced, healthy, seasonal fare that’s always inspired. None more so than their latest “Harvest Bowl”, a mix of kale, sweet potatoes, chicken, goat cheese, apples, almonds and wild rice tossed in a balsamic vinaigrette. After days of Disney debauchery, it’s necessary…
Read More35 Years of Disney
It was 1971. A young man had just graduated UNLV’s hospitality management program, nabbed a coveted job as an assistant manager of one of two hotels at a yet-to-be-opened, much buzzed about theme park, moved to Orlando, Florida and became part of an iconic team: one of the first employees of Walt Disney World. The following…

Okay, friends, we’ve made it. It’s Valentine’s weekend! But in case you’re still looking for ways to say I love you (after this, this, this and this), how about some rose(s)? Gold, that is. On trend and the perfect sentiment this special Fashion Friday. [show_lookbook_widget id=”267064″]
Read MoreSpeed Dial with Summer Bellessa
One-half of the super girl group The Girls with Glasses, Summer Bellessa started her career in modeling before publishing her own women’s magazine Eliza. Then she met future bestie Brooke on MySpace and the rest is glitter bespeckled herstory. Wife, mother of two, art director, actress, producer, part-time rapper and overall creative badass (love this genius piece),…
Read MoreThe Day I Ate My Heart Out
Almost a decade ago, in the midst of a public scandal, we met and became the best of friends. Seven years later, I finally cashed in on that friendship (Oh yeah, there was also that interview, the one that went viral, was on every website and broke this one for days. But now that we’ve gotten that…

Read MoreSuper (Self) Love
12 years ago, I broke up with my boyfriend. On Super Bowl Sunday. Two hours before I was supposed to be at a party he was throwing. That might not be a big deal to some: artists, bookworms, Eskimos, Amish… But, to this guy, it was the equivalent of kicking down the door on Christmas…
