Memorial Day Lemons

Retail sales were in full-swing this Memorial Day weekend, so of course I hit the local outlets to find some good deals. I never usually shop at Talbots, but my mom (my ultimate shopping buddy) wanted to check out the store. My eye automatically went to the gorgeous lemon skirt pictured below. This skirt brought [...]

Ruffled Love

I had a last-minute interview in NYC the other day, and since I am in the midst of moving, of course the suit I needed was packed in a box and already at its new home. This left me with no choice but to run to the mall, grab a suit and a shirt, get [...]

Oprah Quotes

In light of Oprah’s final and last show (tear), I’d like to share two of my favorite Oprah quotes. I know there are some people who aren’t her biggest fans, but I have always greatly admired her. She always presents herself with such class, and uses her success to help others. I also happen to [...]

Crossbody Dilemma

I have been looking for the perfect crossbody bag for quite some time now and finally purchased one the other day. It’s the perfect color, a mustard yellow, and the price is right (now that’s an entertaining show!), but I am having second thoughts as to whether or not I should keep it. It’s also [...]

Ellen Tracy

Ellen Tracy is my new favorite designer, well label to be more exact. Ellen Tracy was founded by Herbert Gallen in 1949, and originally designed only blouses. The company has now branched out and has all different types of clothing as well as perfume and housewares. Here is one of my favorite pieces I own [...]

My Inner Thoreau

It’s always nice to re-connect with your inner “Thoreau.” With the new Spring weather, my brother and I have been enjoying the outdoors. I am a migraine-sufferer and find that the fresh air helps clear my head quite a bit. Where we live, we are lucky to be surrounded by many nature reserves, parks, farms [...]

Team LC

I’ve always been a Lauren Conrad fan (team LC!). From Laguna Beach to The Hills, yes I followed her…don’t judge, but when I heard she had a clothing line at Kohl’s I will admit that I was a little skeptical. The other day I checked out the clothing line for myself, and I was actually [...]

New Buys

I just recently bought two new dresses that I am so very excited about. The one dress is from LOFT (where else?) and I got an amazing deal on it. It was originally $79.50 but I purchased it for around $10.50 (30% of sale price). What a steal! Really, this made my day. I think [...]

My New Love

I once asked someone how they liked their iPhone, and his response was, “If it was a woman I’d marry it!” Of course I looked at him like he was absolutely crazy, and now I think I understand. I just recently purchased my first iPhone, and yes, I am in love. It sounds crazy, but [...]

For Mother's Day

This Mother’s Day, my mama visited with my dad, and brought my little pup as well. Eleven of us, including my Babucia (which means Grandma in Ukrainian), uncle, aunt and cousins, headed over to a relatively new Italian restaurant. Next to Ukrainian food, Italian food is by far my favorite – I am a true [...]
