I hope you are all out enjoying this gorgeous holiday. It takes on new meaning for me, having recently visited a communist country. We are lucky for all we have, and while we may be in a time of turmoil, all across the globe, we have to think about the positives. As an American, I… Continue reading Let Freedom Ring
To quote the famous Cuban, Gloria Estefan, “the rhythm is gonna get you” and she certainly is right. Cuba has a flair all it’s own. You can see it in the architecture, the colorful cars and buildings, the authentic cuisine, and mostly you can feel it in the music. You will hear it all day… Continue reading The Rhythm Is Gonna Get You
So, it happened…I ventured to Cuba, a place I have dreamed of visiting for as long as I can remember. I think my desire to go stems from my love of all things vintage (thanks to parents who restore old cars, collect vintage memorabilia and love antiques), my passion for all things tropical and my… Continue reading Destination Cuba – Part 1
I am one of many fangirls, ‘ooing’ and ‘ahhing’ over Princess Kate and her fabulous style. I am always excited as new photos emerge in the press to see what she is wearing. It never fails that it’s something classic, elegant, flattering and ladylike. She is truly the epitome of what a young Princess should… Continue reading A Regal Royal
They say the neon lights are bright on Broadway, and they don’t lie. If you have ever walked the great white way, you know that adage is completely true. Not only are the lights bright outside, but the stars shine equally as bright inside. Last night those bright and shining Broadway stars got their time… Continue reading They Say The Neon Lights Are Bright On Broadway
I love entertaining! I can’t tell you what I like more, hosting and catching up with people I enjoy spending time with, or decorating for a get together? Don’t tell my guests, but decorating might win! Entertaining covers a very wide range of things. Maybe you are having a big birthday bash, hosting an intimate… Continue reading Dining Decor: Flirty Floral
This past weekend I had such a nice time with my visitors, my parents. (Hence my day-late post. Monday was a day off for sure!) I always love when they come to town and explore new places with me, try new restaurants and of course, as parents do, help with household projects. I’m missing them… Continue reading Welcome To Wine Country
I love unpacking my spring and summer clothes each year! It’s like going shopping in your own closet. Pulling out all of the flowery, pastel hued ensembles that have been hiding away during the winter months is so refreshing. I mean, winter fashion has it’s pros, but the darker, drearier colors weigh on you after… Continue reading Blooming in the Big Apple
It’s Memorial Day, which for most of us is a three day weekend kicking off the start of summer. Likely that means time by a pool or lake, maybe a bike ride, a picnic in the park or a BBQ. It also most likely means a weekend full of yummy food and drink. Which is… Continue reading Summer Sweets
This spring, the flowers in Chicago, and everywhere it seems, have been especially beautiful. I’m not sure if they are actually more abundant or more colorful than previous years, or if I am just allowing myself to take them in from a different perspective. Regardless, I’ve really been loving them. (Keep up the good work… Continue reading April Showers Bring May Flowers
