Did you know that July is National Picnic Month? I love a good picnic, so I thought this would be the perfect time to share some of my summer picnic essentials. My first memories of picnics were with my parents in Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco with some fresh sourdough and salami. My idea of a picnic has changed a bit since then, but it’s always about good people, good food and good drinks. I believe you can have a picnic almost anywhere, whether it’s on the roof of your home or apartment building or at a local park like the La Brea Tar Pits. I do believe in brining a few of my favorite items to make sure that the experience is perfect though. What are some useful things for the perfect picnic? Well here are my Picnic Essentials: Make sure that all of your food is in separate… Read More

What are the Best Sunscreens of 2019? First I must start off with the fact that I am not a medical professional, but a concerned consumer and I like to educate myself on the best products to you for all occasions. In order to rank the best sunscreens of 2019 and all previous years, there are a three factors that I consider, how they rank on the Environmental Working Group’s Guide to Sunscreen, then how easily they fit into my lifestyle (do they have a white cast, are they super expensive, etc), then the final and most important part….will my family and I use them. Everyone who knows me, knows that I am serious about sunscreen. Why am I so serious? Both my great grandmother and mother were advocates for wearing sunscreen regularly. My mother had very fair skin and would burn very easily, while my great grandmother loved the sun, but… Read More

I’m going to be starting a new series on my blog called “Friday Favorites”. You guys always ask me about the products I’m currently using and I want to have a regular place for you to find it. I’ll start by sharing my favorite skincare, makeup and haircare items. If you would like me to talk about other subjects please let me know in the comments below. Truth be told, I used to hate wearing eye makeup. I didn’t know how to apply it correctly and it always seemed to run so there was more under my eye than on it. I also have bad allergies, which can make wearing eye makeup that much more difficult. I’ve had to go through a lot of products to find out which ones work best for my oily skin and sensitive eyes and here are my current favorites. 5 Eye Makeup Products I… Read More

I’ve always loved the way the perfect blazer can pull together an otherwise ho-hum outfit. It can make a low-key casual outfit infinitely more stylish. The perfect blazer is also a great piece to help you transition into fall, you can easily wear a favorite summer outfit and throw on a blazer to get wear out of it as you move into fall. I got my first blazer in New York City, shortly after graduating from college, it was a fitted black corduroy blazer. Now corduroy is a casual fabric, but in the right color it can look more formal. I must mention that I am talking about a blazer and not a jacket that is part of a 2 piece suit, which can often be worn as a blazer. I will often wear the jacket of a 2 piece suit without the suit skirt or pants, but I… Read More

I love going on dates with my husband and I enjoy planning out my date night outfits. I’ve been married to my husband for almost 14 years now, even though my husband still likes me to refer to him as “my boyfriend”. ? Wow, sometimes it’s hard to believe it’s been almost 14 years. Time certainly flies when you’re having fun. As I’m sure you can agree, we need to make time for the important things in our lives, like taking care of our selves and spending time with our significant other, family and friends. Life can get really hectic and feel like it’s moving forward on it’s own, with work, kids (I have a step daughter) and a social life. Therefore, you need to make time for things like dating your significant other. My husband and I have a least one “date” a week and we like to make… Read More
