I bought a couple of splurges for my hair while in France.
There is something so luxurious about this brush.
Also, the hair oil is phenomenal.

A beautiful day at the Place Vendôme. This is where the Ritz Carlton is.
I though that choosing understated elegance is the tight choice for such a spectacular place

Oh my goodness , she's back... and in more colors.
I love this dress SO much.
I have it in white, black and just ordered it in butter yellow!

What to wear when it's fall in the morning, but summer by afternoon.
I got this top in France. However, I've found a few that are very similar and available here.

Another Prime Sale must.
Medicube no pore pads. These bumped the $99 Doctor Gross version out of my rotation.
Normally , these are 1/4th the cost.
On the Prime sale, they are even less!

Guys.... oh my. My absolute holy grail is 40% off on the Prime sale.
This under eye corrector eliminates dark circles. All without giving 2016 face.
I think this must be the 20th time that I've purchased this.
It works like nothing else!

I have never owned a pair of Vans before.
However, my cousin had me walking from Paris 6th to the 17th. My poor feet were begging for mercy. I found these babies and never looked back.
They are available in the states and are actually less$$

My retro loving self had to have this 1950's reminiscent a-line skirt.

If the south of France calls, don't over think it, just say "YES" and go.
You'll never regret it.
It's still beach season here. So I'm in dresses, sleeveless tops and light weight pants.
This top will be perfect for the fall as well.

I love the versatility of this dress. It's an A-line style with a mock neck. I wore it as is this week when it gets cooler , I'll thrown on an over sized denim jacket keg and swap out the sandals for ankle boots.
This dress is an absolute steal too!

Sometimes classics are the best.
A simple polo and linen pants are cool and comfortable for these late summer days that can still be rife with heat and humidity.

Here is another outfit that is ideal for transitioning into fall.
This stripped polo is a light sweater type material, it doesn't scream summer. So far, I worn it with a denim skirt, and black slacks for at work.

If I'd been born 1 day and 5 minutes later, I'd of been born on September 1st.
However, even waaaay back in 1979 I said "no, way... no fall. I'm a summer girl."
Nearly half a century later, that's still 100% accurate!
This denim skirt ( see 2nd photo)
Is the perfect transition piece. It's great now when it's still warm. However, it's going to look gorgeous in the fall with sued boots and a cashmere sweater.

After living off popsicles and soup, I was ready to get back at it in the kitchen.
Last night, I did steak and cheese egg rolls with a cheese dipping sauce.

- Provolone Cheese
-Vegetable oil
- egg roll wrappers
- 2Tbs butter
-2 TBS flour
- 1/2 C milk
- 1/2 C cheese (your choice what type!)

I've been out of commission since Friday.
Sinusitis, an inner ear infection and strep.
What a combo.
However, this beauty finally arrived today!
I'm giddy to get her in action!

I'm trying to battle back from strep, a sinus infection and an ear infection all at once.
Today was the 1st day that I'd been up to trying to cool or bake anything.
I recently got the Kitchenaid wooden bowl mixer, it's crazy how excited I am over an appliance.
Regardless, these cookies are delicious! Little, bite sized apple pies.
Perfect for September!

Labor Day weekend is cooking (😢)
If you have plans for a weekend getaway, let me suggest this Karen Kane sleeveless travel jumper.
It's really like you are wearing pajamas without looking like you are wearing pajamas. Super comfortable, can be dressed up or down.
Toss on a denim jacket and you have a nice fall transition outfit.

This delicious Caprese flatbread features a crispy crust topped with melted fresh mozzarella, sliced ripe tomatoes, fresh basil leaves, and a tangy balsamic glaze.
It's so simple to make. It's the perfect weeknight meal, or can be served as an appetizer.

From earlier this week... this dress is such a good transitional piece as we go into fall. The rich chocolate brown says autumn, while the cut and material says "you can wear me now without having heat stroke"
This is great for for office, or for a date night.

This is my "wear it now, wear it in the fall" work "uniform".
As soon as the weather cools, I'll add a cardigan or blazer. Also, I'll swap the heeled sandals for an ankle bootie.

The focus now is things that can currently be worn, while still being appropriate for fall as well.
Today, in August I wore this sleeveless mock neck top and chocolate brown pants with heeled sandals. In the fall, I'll add a cardigan and swap the sandals for ankle boots.

You used to pay double for this.
Yup, you heard me. Skindnavia made Urban Decay's "All nighter" makeup setting spray for nearly 20 years.
UD dropped them to have a more profitable formula made.
Skindnavia got the last laugh by partnering with M.&CO beauty.
The EXACT same formula it was when it was made by Urban Decay. Now, it's 1/2 the price of what it was!

Keep your "fall, y'all!", I'm still summering over here!
I love this dress because it's great for work and play.
The office or date night, this dress just works. It's made from super soft poplin with the tiniest bit of stretch.

All of the pumpkins, back to school sales and fall outfits in the stores can change the fact that it's 90+ degrees, with humidity straight out of the tropics.

Coming to you today with another business casual office outfit.
This sleeveless cardigan is another piece that works now as I'm wearing it here. It will work in the fall with a long sleeve t-shirt under it.
I'm wearing it now with white linen pants. In the fall, I'll wear it with tan or brown corduroy pants and loafers.

I know that everyone is talking about fall fashion.
However, in the world outside of being on line, it's still summer.
It’s still in the 80's & 90's. We still have to get up and live your life.
So for now, I'm still going to be showing you what I'm wearing now. The wool, suede and tweed will come, but not just yet! 😉

Yesterday's torrential rain had my hair a total mess.
Still , I wanted to share this outfit because it's something that works now and for the fall.
As much as it pains me, I must keep fall in mind while making any purchase.
This top is so soft, it feels like it could be a pajama top.

Why do I always gravitate towards the most luxurious stuff? Grrrr.
Regardless, I splurged on this eye palette. It's pretty darn nice.
It blends very nicely, it's great for both day and night and has all day/ night staying power.

If you have under eye circles like I do, this post is for you.
I need to use an under eye corrector under my foundation.
I have loved Charlotte Tilbury's one for years.
I was recently turned on to this one by Catrice. I'm surprised, but the $6.00 is BETTER than the w!!

Summer time can be brutal for those of us with thick textured hair.
I've heard amazing things about this line from Kérastase.
It fights frizz while adding shine and bounce.
So far, I've tried the drops. They smell so good and they are keeping the frizz at bay.
I'm excited to try the full line!
