But since it is NOT for sale, but it IS available for weekly holidays via One Fine Stay, I’m going stay in it for a few days and fantasize about how it would feel to exist in its modern 1920’s Spanish Revival elegance – among what looks to be an original Jackson Pollock painting. LOOK …

With the holidays coming up #TargetStyle / Target and Glam Media, asked me to create a travel packing guide for a trip home for the holidays where I will be attending dinner parties, nights out with friends, and casual hangouts with family. Target challenged me to bring two personal items from my wardrobe and style …
In the Land of Palm Springs & Rancho Mirage…
One of the main reasons the husband and I decided on a little vacation in Palm Springs a few weeks ago was to see if it was a place we’d maybe like to buy a home in {read this post to catch up}. And while we were there, I was very much in love with …
The Palm Springs Art Museum
Last Tuesday, the husband and I braved the 122 degree heat and ventured out into the Coachella Valley and landed upon the Palm Springs Art Museum and were happily greeted with a burst of frigid air and smiling faces as we walked through the doors. What a gorgeous space this museum is. There are four …

The Viceroy Hotel Sovereign Villa Suite 105 Palm Springs
We’ve been staying in Sovereign Villa Suite 105 at the Viceroy Palm Springs for the last five days and four nights and honestly, we could move in for the entire Summer and be perfectly content!

Palm Springs Vacation : Part One
Wow! So, I’m pretty sure I’ll be overwhelming this space with vacation photos for the coming days, if not weeks. We’re having such an amazing time and it’s just too beautiful not to share. I promised I wouldn’t work too much but my husband tends to fall asleep early and I am a major night …
Vacation Had to Get Away
If you follow me on any other social media platform, you may already know that the husband and I are on a little vacation getaway to Palm Springs and we’re staying in a villa at the fabulous Viceroy Hotel. We came not only for a little fun in the sun, but also to check out …
LA to Vegas ~ The Desert Road
Before Instagram there was Hipstamatic. It didn’t offer the same fun networky/social media community that Instagram does {Hello new Android users!} but it did have some really cool filters and faux camera lenses for enhancing those less than perfect iPhone 3GS photos. As I was searching through my old iPhotos on my desktop the other …
This. Is. No. Ordinary Love, No Ordinary Love.
It’s a week after our 5 year wedding anniversary staycation at the beach and I’m missing the ocean and cool beach weather more than I normally do after leaving the beach. It’s just such a different lifestyle, walking everywhere and seeing the infinite blue waves every day… though a vacation mindset doesn’t hurt. As I …
Poolside: My Go-to Waterfront Outfit
If you caught a glimpse of me out by the pool in San Diego at BlogHer’11, you may have already seen this outfit… and I wore it again over the weekend in Santa Monica with the husband. It’s an easy and {what I think} adorable poolside or beachfront ensemble that I just throw on for …
Staycation: The Oceana Hotel in Santa Monica
The Oceana Hotel in Santa Monica is by far our favorite place to get away for a mini staycation in Los Angeles. Not only is it a phenomenal hotel with a fantastic staff & customer service, gorgeous suites and an amazing view, it’s literally 12 miles from our house. But as you know or may …
My Experience at BlogHer’11 …in a nutshell
Wow. I mean, WOW. BlogHer’11, what can I say? I had a blast. The nerves I had building up to it were pointless. Once there, meeting all the fabulous women, it’s hard not to just settle in and become part of the madness. Though, in fact, I wasn’t so much a part of the madness, …
Shopping at The Wynn & What I Wore
What I’m Wearing* Sea New York leopard print dress from GILT …this dress is sooooo easy to wear and sooooo comfortable I can’t help but want to throw it on just about every time I have to leave the house. So if by chance you run into me while I’m out running errands, expect to …
