Dear Grey\'s Anatomy, You Suck

Dear Grey’s Anatomy, This is the
hardest letter I’ve ever had to write.
We’ve had some wonderful times,
you and I—all those steamy scenes
in the elevator at Seattle Grace come
to mind. However (and I say this with
a heavy heart), it is past time to part
ways. I simply cannot devote an entire
hour out of my week to you anymore.
At one time, I happily planned my Thursday
evening around seeing you, but now? I
hardly recognize you.

The Love List: All That Glitters is Gold (and Healthy!)

923489_fpxtif.jpegWelcome to my Weekly Love List. A list on all things I love, because if I love them - well then obviously you may (and should) love them too.

As the Backstreet Boys song says (and yes I am actually quoting them) “My Love is All I Have To Give.” So with that throwback, here are this week’s list-worthy things…]

1. Michael Kors Gold Watch- While it’s not the cheapest thing on the block, its definitely a cheaper option as far as gold watches go. It’s Chunky, it’s cute and it’s made by my favorite Project Runway personality. Now if only I could get him to design me a one-of-a kind gown…

2. Did you ever wonder what you would look like with blonde hair? I did. When I was studying abroad in Florence and thought it would be a GREAT idea to surprise everyone by dying my hair blonde. Had I known about Taaz, I would have saved myself some money, and more importantly, a whole lot of embarrassment. Because as it turns out blonde hair - especially when done by dark-haired Italians? - so not my look. Taaz is a virtual makeover site. Upload your photo and see for yourself if you can pull of the Katie Holmes Bob or the Jenny Humphrey shag. Read More »

So I already gave you the nail polish trends for this season - now it’s time to show you how to get the makeup looks that are sure to be a hit this fall.We’ll be seeing a lot of spring’s trends linger, like grays and light purples/blues, but we’ll also see some other trends emerging. Some are quite extreme - like cat and raccoon eyes and vampy lips - while others are easy and natural - like the almost-nude look.

The hot colors for the fall? Bronzes and golds, earthy tones and purples will be on eyes, cheeks and lips all season long. Read More »

Chocolate and Diamonds and Gold, OH YEAH!

It is a treat fit for a queen.

The perfect indulgence for anyone with the XX chromosome combo. And even with a $25,000 price tag, this sweet treat is worth every last penny.This indulgent treat is what happens when chocolate meets gold and then pairs up with diamonds. And unlike the stuff that only looks like chocolate, this is 100% edible. As if there could be anything better for a woman (except, maybe, the same combination in a fat free version).

The genius behind the Frrrrozen Hot Chocolate at the famed New York eatery, Serendipity III, has joined forces with a luxury jeweler to create this couture dessert. And what exactly makes up a $25,000 dessert? Read More »

Shine in Metallic Flats

metallic flat

Standing not-quite-tall at 5’1 with a rack that would make Salma Hayek jealous, I really have no business wearing flats. Depending on the rest of my outfit, I tend to either look small and round, or impossibly top heavy and permanently on a tilt towards the ground, chest-first.

Even my closest friends have never seen me in anything resembling a sneaker, and my cute black flats tend to come out only during my commute to and from work, when heels just won’t do.But I can’t help but lust after these cute metallic flats. There’s something very unassumingly charming about them. Since flats are so inconspicuous, you can get away with a gold or silver without looking like you belong on a corner making rent money.

How Charming…

Frosted shell-charm bracelet, J.Crew $115; Maritime charm bracelet, J.Crew $130

What better time than summertime to put a little whimsy in your accessories? The hot item for this summer is definitely going to be the charm bracelet. The amusing jingle, the ability to personalize, and the fact that it looks damn good with a white sundress is going to catapult this piece of jewelry to such great heights — if I may borrow a term from the Postal Service. Haven’t heard that name in a while have you? Read More »
