But like your Mother always told you, it’s what’s inside that counts. Luckily, The Bubble […]

With details like the puff sleeves and square neckline, it’s a departure from your basic cotton tee. It also falls under the “I love the nautical trend for Spring” category. Does it look nautical-y to you? (It’s a word.)

Ballet flats are a simple staple in my life. I hoard collect them like some people collect passport stamps or matchbooks.
I might forgive myself for not stocking up when Gap had them on mega sale, but I’ll never truly forget. Althought they’re not as much of a bargain, the price still lends itself […]

It’s that time of year again. Without fail when the weather gets cold and windy, my smootcher feels like a little block of sandpaper. So for my comfort (and the comfort of my beau) I’m gonna give this smoothing treatment a whirl. Based on my love of the line, I have high […]
