I have a day job, and I really enjoy it. I work as a Registered Medical Assistant in a thriving surgical practice and I really love what I do and I love the people with whom I work. I am always in a great mood when I arrive at the office, because I believe that your attitude when you walk through the door will set the tone for the day. Like the quote says, “Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.” And I believe that because I like what I do gives me the freedom […]
A Mini-Roundup from NYFW
I love fashion, and I love New York City. So it would just make sense that I would love New York Fashion Week, even though I’ve never been to NYFW or to a fashion show. NYFW is specifically for industry insiders, media (newspapers, magazines, and television), models and celebrities, and select VIBs (very important bloggers). There are some events open to the public including the TRESemme Runway Studio Salon, Carol Galvin Foundation Women’s Cancer Fashion Runway Gala, Fashion Week Online VIP Lounge, NYFW Fashion for Charity Rising Stars Runway Show, as well as several fashion shows by select up-and-coming designers.

Winter Styles You’ll Want to Copy
The first and second big snows of 2016 have hit the East and I must say, I love it! I love the look of stylish winter coats, and like many other women, I try to incorporate the styles I see on the street into my own personal style.

But I also love the look of a classy coat, like these from Bloomingdale’s. Photo Source: Bloomingdale’s 1. SAM. Freestyle Down Jacket […]
A Stylish Twist on Christmas Trees
No, I have not put up a Christmas tree yet. But you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the kind of Christmas tree I have decided to put up this year. I am trying to rework my dress form into a Christmas tree, and I’m taking inspiration from Style Estate and Pinterest. Check these out! I also like the elegance of this tree (below). It could be a special occasion tree instead of a Christmas tree. It was featured on Style Estate’s blog. This tree (below) shows how you can style it with a simple piece of fabric around the bodice, and […]
Sunday Inspiration: Your Sunday Evening Reminder
Photo Source: Live Life Happy via Bloglovin via Pinterest Most Sunday evenings, I find myself wondering where the weekend went. I often sit down and think, “What did I do this weekend?” And most of the time I realize I didn’t do much of anything productive. Tonight, as I sit here writing this blog post, I am already compiling a list of things I need to do before I go to bed. Right now, I have five things I NEED to do before my head hits the pillow tonight. Yikes! But this quote gently reminds me that no matter […]
