A few months ago I found these pretty raised square serving bowls and thought they’d make a perfect home to a few of my already regrowing orchids. I used to keep all my orchids in their original pots, planted in their original plastic casing and was a bit afraid that if I replanted them, they’d …
A few weeks ago I made my first trip down the snowy mountain, back to sunny Los Angeles, to meet up with designer Karen Zambos. We met at her amazing design studio downtown in the Fashion District to chat about her newest collections and red carpet style. What’s incredibly awesome about getting to interview Karen …
As I near my 37th birthday, I’m noticing my fine lines becoming deeper crevices by the day, and they’ve got me thinking more about injectables. I daydream about filling my forehead lines up with Botox and making them disappear, but the thought that follows is one of terror… so I’m looking for a little feedback …
I just recently stumbled upon these really cool Test Tube Chandeliers inspired by Polish scientist Marie Sklodowska Curie and designed by Pani Jurek, with one and two rows of test tubes. So clever! They’re really so pretty the way the little bottles each hang suspended from the base… and imagine all the fun stuff you …
The glitter nail polish I made last week has recently become a favorite. Yeah, I say that with each manicure I do, but this one has stayed on like nobody’s business, with very little chipping. I’m sure it has something to do with the fact that I used a base coat, but who knows. About …
We all want to look cute, but with everyone talking about what to wear to the upcoming music festivals {like Coachella that’s happening this weekend!}, I thought it would be nice to know what beauty essentials to take. Because “cute” doesn’t stop at your neck and being prepared to weather a weekend without proper restrooms …
The only time I really find myself wishing I were younger, is when I feel too old to wear certain styles. Yes I was part of the original 90’s grunge era, and it was fun, but this new grungy style mix, and what I’m referring to as Music Festival Mainstream: 60’s Flower Child meets 70’s …
I’m in the middle of renovating one of our guest rooms {which I’m excited to share with you very soon} and needed a new ceiling fixture to replace the standard gold and glass “boob” which reside in almost all of our upstairs bedrooms. But 1. I needed it FAST and 2. I didn’t want to …
Sleep is the best beauty treatment you can give yourself. It reduces stress and inflammation, which are thought to contribute to our body’s aging process and releases growth hormones which aid in all kinds of healthy body functions.

Years ago, after we watched “What the Bleep {do we know?}” for the first time, we were instantly taken by Water Crystals and Dr. Masaru Emoto‘s studies on how our thoughts and feelings affect our reality, and specifically, how they affect water. And since “WE” are made up of mostly water, that our thoughts and …
Our house is situated on two lanes… with exterior doors on both… and therefore it isn’t quite sure which to call the front door and which to call the back. It doesn’t really matter because we don’t have a postal delivery service here, but go and pick up our mail and packages in the Village …

Each season I turn to Chanel’s nail polish collection to determine what the latest and greatest “it colors” of the moment are. But at $27 a bottle, I’m not always willing to splurge on a crazy color that I may not love next year. A classic colored polish I know I’ll have in my collection …
