perfection! »

I don’t read “Lucky” magazine any more. But I can tell you that my absolute most favorite part of the magazine was the very last page, a charmingly chic illustration of some fabulous outfit as imagined on Andrea Linett, one of the mag’s founders and editors. If I read nothing else in an issue, I [...]



coziest hats around… »

December 21st, 2010 » Comments (2)

And as we are being slammed with snow right now, I’m thinking warm cover-ups for my outdoor sojourns. Like hats. Of which I am generally not a fan. I must have a large head, or something, because I rarely find a hat that looks good on me. But I love any and all of Mischa [...]



perfect snow boots… »

Canada knows a thing or two about boots. And France knows a thing or two about style. So when I came across Pajar, a company based out of Montreal and helmed by a Frenchman, I realized I’d finally found the perfect pair of snow boots: functional and chic. A rare combination, particularly when you live [...]

Best $19.99 I ever spent was on this robe, from Target. It’s the most insanely cozy robe in the world. I just want to wear it all day long… Even better? Notice it’s now on sale for $15.00!



too lovely for words… »

I am completely smitten with these little dolls by Jess Brown. They’re completely old-school and yet totally modern all at once. I find myself perusing her site, with little accessories, clothing and furniture for the little dolls regularly, dreaming about which one I’d choose for Coco; which one I’d choose for Pea. Then I saw [...]

I love these crayon rocks. So cute in a little bowl left out on the dining room table, which no matter how much I moan and groan is where everything in my kids’ world lands. And remains.   



seriously chic website… »

The curator of just about the coolest website I’ve seen in a long time emailed me with a link to the site, and I sat on it for far too long. Such a shame I could not have shared the link sooner because the directory of amazing businesses is something to behold. We’re talking an [...]

wish list… »

December 3rd, 2010 » Comments (0)

It doesn’t matter where I am or what I am doing, there are just some items that I am never prepared enough to have on hand. Such as a rain coat, which is what I so desperately needed last Saturday in San Francisco, when a friend and I took our four children to Fisherman’s Wharf [...]



from Santa… »

December 2nd, 2010 » Comments (3)

This sled is going to be under the Christmas tree for the girls this year. Santa is dropping it off. My favorite because he says I don’t have to wrap anything that comes from him. Phew. It’s an heirloom, for sure. I’m going to be zipping down the mountains on this thing with my grandchildren [...]

I am dreaming of this jacket. I cannot get it out of my mind. A little on the pricy side, but my God, it’s winter here for about nine months out of the year! So I could totally justify it…
