Tassel Trend

I'm obsessing over tassels right now! Seeing them everywhere and loving everything with this flirty and charming embellishment! Whether you are looking for your home or your wardrobe, you don't want to miss out on this tassel trend!

How about adding these gold tassel earrings for a perfect finishing touch to any outfit?

Loving this flat mules in my favorite color combination of black and navy!

How comfy/cute are these tennies?

I love the tassel pulls on this french style chest.

I want to find a place for these tassel sconces in my new home!

Coveting this tassel bar cart for sure!

I love a good cross body bag and this one has a great handle too!

Love the statement that this bracelet makes and it can be worn all year long.

I love my Hermes Tassel key ring because I can always find it in my purse.

National Book Lovers Day!

Can I do a bit of self-promotion on National Book Lovers Day?  I hope you will scroll through my books featured below and find a little bit of inspiration for your next celebration!

LOVE!

I had a little giggle to myself today because I was asked to speak at an upcoming conference on work/life balance and keeping organized.  Just as I was pondering that,  I opened my package from Minted with my personalized Valentine tags! Why is that funny?  Well, the Valentine tags are actually going to be attached to the Christmas gifts that I didn't ever get out to my friends this year because, clearly, I haven't managed to master the work/life balance thing! 

Oh well!  Better late than never I think and even better-better with these darling tags!

While I was ordering my gift tags, I let Millie pick out these precious french bull dog classroom Valentines.  We always give out little Whitman's Chocolate Hearts so I also ordered her cute little co-ordinating stickers to mark the gift bags that the chocolates will go in.

She "personalized" them a little bit and acted like she was writing the names of her friends in her classroom because she wants to everything that her big brother does!  

Speaking of JR, he could not contain his joy when we searched for "hockey Valentines" and he found this one!  He is seriously obsessed with his "Let's stick together" cards because he was able to put his favorite photo with a few of the Dallas Stars hockey players on the back of it!  He found some co-ordinating stickers to personalize that will seal his red paper bags of Whitman's Sports Theme Chocolates. 

So, instead of seeing this project as a catch up from being late for Christmas, I've decided to look at it as being ahead of the game for Valentine's Day!

Charleston Bound!

Even though my Rimowa carry-on roll-a-board seems bottomless, I try really hard to make co-ordinated plans when packing. I can't stand having to check a bag!  Here is what I'm planning to take to Charleston!

 I'm obsessed with my new monogrammed Elisabetta Slouch from Mark and Graham - Love it!  It holds everything!  I'll throw this sparkly envelope clutch inside to pull out for the evenings. 

I ordered this Tabula Rasa Tie Sweater a few weeks ago and I'm hoping the weather will co-operate on this trip and allow me to wear it!

This pear shaped body of mine is thrilled that flare bottom pants are back!  I especially love these Rosetta Getty Flare Pants

A Boat and Tote Bag for $17!  - I use these all the time and I love to get a new one every year.  All this one needs is a monogram!

Hermes Belt - Reversible and practical!

Hermes Collier de Chien Cuff  - I love that this goes from day to night.  It is the only accessory I really need!

Stitched Scarf - I hope I need this!  I'm craving cool temps!  

Stylish Sneakers  for exploring Charleston's sites - we plan to do the walking tour - and a pair of pointy toe pumps for the evenings. 

I always travel with this blazer - the sweater underneath is a dickey and can be removed for two different looks! 

I have worn my new Tibi Bow jumpsuit so many times!  I'm taking it for dinner and my book signing.  

In my makeup bag, I'm adding a bit of shimmer with these Tom Ford shadows and trying to perfect the nude lip look with these Charlotte Tillbury colors.
