Two Fridays ago, my beloved Sony VAIO laptop died. With no laptop, this post remained in limbo. I spent all last week researching new laptops and so much has changed in the last 10 years! Being a creature of habit, change doesn’t always come easy to me. Sigh… (more…)
When the New Kids on the Block (NKOTB) reunited back in late 2007, I was one of the lucky fans who saw them live on the Today Show on May 16, 2008, their first live concert since 1994! Now an adult, it was exciting and surreal to watch the boyband of my childhood performing right in front of me. Donnie Wahlberg (my favorite New Kid) flashed his million dollar smile at me and my heart raced as I smiled back. (more…)
Fall has arrived! I’m so excited for this time of year! It is my favorite season. Although, Summer’s embrace still lingers, hints of Fall are making their debut gradually. I can feel it in the cooler mornings and nights. I can see it at the stores as they display Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas (already!) paraphernalia. And just last night as I drove home from work, I could smell the sweet scent of burning firewood in the air. This gradual changing of the seasons will soon gift us with the splendor of Fall foliage. I love watching the leaves paint the landscape in brilliant hues. It is something I look forward to every year. (more…)
Can you tell I’m on a cage heels kick? 😉 These Vince Camuto Paxton sandals are from last Summer. They are part of a surplus of blog pics that have yet to be published. I’m so happy to finally feature them this week before we say good-bye to Summer. (more…)
One of the best things about living in the Washington DC area is the endless options for photo shoot locales. We decided to drive into Washington, DC to check out the Botanic Garden situated on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol. We found great parking just across the street from it and only had to walk a short distance. I was looking forward to the shoot until we walked in: humidity greeted us and the tight walkways were streaming with visitors. I gave my dad a disapproving look, but he still wanted to take some “test” shots. We spent about 15 minutes there before I was over it. Diva behavior according to my dad! 😉 (more…)
As much as I love kids, there was a time when I never wanted any of my own. That mindset evolved to if I ever had kids, I only wanted boys. Then, my brother, Michael, and his wife, Shannon, had my niece, Kristin and that sentiment went out the window. (more…)

Blue is my favorite color; so imagine my delight when I came across this lovely pair from White House Black Market. The vivid blue caught my eye and the tassel ties add a flirty touch making these sandals the perfect accessory for summertime fun. (more…)
One of the earliest lessons my father taught me was to always honor your commitments. Integrity is one of my dad’s greatest virtues and it guides him in all aspects of his life. With my dad, if he’s committed to doing something, he ALWAYS follows through. He is simply a man of his word. (more…)
The Nine West Everafter pumps are so chic! The first thing that caught my eye was the fringe detail at the ankle. Yes, two years later, my love affair with fringe continues. 😉 Fringe is definitely still trending in 2017 and when paired with approximately 4-inch stiletto heels, adds a sexy and playful vibe, in my opinion. 🙂 (more…)
