Jobs I Want To Try Some Day
Let me start today’s post by saying that I enjoy my job as a Registered Medical Assistant. I enjoy those I work with, and I enjoy the job in general. That being said, I still think of myself as that awkward 20-something fresh out of college with hopes and dreams of having this job or that job, but mostly I dream about being a publish and paid writer/blogger. Now with that being said, here is a list of a few of the jobs I’d like to try someday… 1) Actress… My husband says I’m a drama queen. I have been known […]
Links I Love: BlogHer Fashion and Style Bloggers
This month’s “Links I Love” is a little different, in that I’m featuring some fashion, beauty, and style bloggers that are a part of the BlogHer and SheKnows Media community.

I am super excited about next week! This will be my second year, but I still feel like a newbie at the conference among the couple of thousands of bloggers that attend this conference each year. […]
Woman of Style: Kate Winslet
Kate Winslet stole Leo DiCaprio’s heart in Titanic and she helped Sir Richard Branson’s mother, Eve, to safety when their house caught on fire on Necker Island. She has acted in dramas as well as romantic comedies, The Holiday being one of my all-time favorites. But to me, she is more than just an actress. She is a role model for women everywhere because she exudes a confidence in herself and in her body, making her this month’s “Woman of Style.” In 2002, she had this to say about doing nude scenes: “I like exposing myself. There’s not an awful […]
Stylish Kaftans for Summer
Kaftans have long been a staple of fashionable women lounging by the pool or going to the beach, then being worn to lunch or possibly even dinner. Stylish women have packed their kaftans for holidays abroad or island vacations. But has this flimsy piece of fabric designed to be thrown over a bikini really transitioned from resort wear to every-day wear? I say, YES! Kaftans can be worn with gladiator sandals, espadrilles, or high heels. They can be belted or worn loose. Some are designed oversized while others are more narrowly cut. Rachel Zoe even designed some mini-kaftans for her […]
