Like most women, I love shoes. In fact, I’ve devoted many posts to my love of heels. However, my feet seemed to be conspiring against me when a year ago they randomly grew a half size. Not only did I no longer fit into about 1/2 the pairs of shoes in my closet (believe me, [...]

Quest for the Perfect Spring Fragrance
I’m feeling a bit sick of my current fragrance choices. I tend to like spicier flavors with a hint of gardenia or similar scent. Some of my current selections include Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy, Dolce & Gabbana Rose The One, Michael Kors Michael and Flora by Gucci. Have any of you tried anything new [...]

Lenten Promises
It’s that time of the year again – Ash Wednesday is once again upon us. With Ash Wednesday comes Lent – and that means I have to give up something fabulous that is very near and dear to my heart. Last year I gave up soda – and believe me, it was quite difficult – [...]

Quest for the perfect black bag
Every woman should have a classic handbag. I have many handbags, but I’m still in need of the perfect black/dark handbag.

The Quest For Weekend Boots
This Fall I’ve been fiending for a great pair of classic flat boots. I know, what is the world coming to – Jen wearing flats? I’ve been searching high and low, off and online, for the perfect pair but as you might imagine, my sized 10.5 feet are really making things difficult. It’s shocking how [...]

A little slice of heaven
My friend recently started working at Saks (on 5th Avenue, of course) so I’ve tried to learn a bit more information about the history of the company. Did you know… During the summer of 2007, Saks Fifth Avenue flagship store in NYC opened its new shoe floor. The floor was every girl’s dream – literally [...]

Scent Obsession: kai
I’ve found my new favorite scent (or at least through the summer!) and I adore it! kai was created by Gaye Straza, who loved vacationing in the tropics. She eventually created kai, a floral perfume, which she later started selling in her own upscale boutique in Malibu. I started using the fragrance oil – Will [...]

Style File: Weekend Looks
I’m always looking for a cute, casual weekend outfit. This outfit is adorable but I know it would look horrid on me. Why is it that you can put anything (maybe even a sack) on a model and they look awesome…grr! So here’s my inspiration: (Image courtesy of garancedore)

A Little Self Control, Please!
Today was a busy, stressful day. Some people eat when they are stressed – apparently I shop (online). Among the plethora of online shopping sites, Gilt Group has quickly become my favorite. The ladies of Wit & Whimsy definitely described it best earlier this year: Gilt Groupe provides access, by invitation only, to Men’s, Women’s and Children’s [...]
