Today’s Obsession: HRH Emily Post

As stated before, I don’t how people typically celebrate Hooray for Buttons Day, but there’s something more to celebrate. This week is National Etiquette Week, and to honor the occasion, today’s obsession is what should basically be considered the Etiquette Bible. Emily Post, likely hailed the queen of etiquette, was...

Bermuda, Bahama, Come on Pretty Mama

Yesterday was legitimately Hurray for Buttons Day. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to celebrate that. Soooo I’ll talk about something else. I got back from the Bahamas on Saturday and spend Sunday with the lovely Laura Max before she left to return to Boston. The trip was fantastic… morning coffee...

What I’m Reading: Hilary Winston

I’m writing this post in the middle of April, but won’t be publishing it until I’m in the Bahamas (wahooo!!) due to publicity issues and the minor, minuscule detail that the book I’m talking about doesn’t come out until May 3. Be jealous. It’s been a goal of mine during...

Today’s Obsession: F21 Activewear

Remember back in the day when Limited, Too was the one and only cool place for clothes? Everyone had the same pajama bottoms from there and the same pleated denim mini skirt (what were we thinking?). Forever 21 is the grown up Limited, Too. Only I’m betting it’s probably cheaper....

The Perfect 10 Workout: Hot Yoga

I was looking through some of the ASME award finalists yesterday and came across an article from O Magazine last year. The piece was a two-part series about this woman who subjected herself to the 60 day Bikram challenge. She was at a bad place in her life and decided...

Wedding Fever

There is so much Royal Wedding fever going on, it’s insane. On the one hand, I think it could be kind of un-patriotic for an American to go googly-eyed over the royal nuptials, what with us being founded on the concept of rejecting royalty. I get it, that’s all politically...

To Read or to E-Read; That is the Question

Seeing as I am an avid reader, there have been numerous opportunities when I have had the option of buying some sort of e-reader. And while I love the designer covers for the Nook, I just haven’t really understood the appeal. The other night over dinner, one of my sisters...

The Sky is Falling: Judg(e)ment Day

There are all these people in the subways and streets of New York prophesying about the end of the world and the second coming of Christ and yada yada yada. In case you haven’t heard, the world ends May 21, 2011. http://judgementday2011.com/ Of course, as my journalism professor points out,...
