My Mother once told me, My Father once said...


When I was very little my mother told me, that before I was born God showed me all the families in the world and that out of all of them; I chose this one.

Even though I knew that this was not quite the way things worked; I understood what my mother ment by saying this to me. This was her way of explaining to me that no matter where I go In this world, that I would not find people who loved me more than my family. 

My father on the other hand would say 'You can choose your friends but your family is your family and you have to learn how to live and love one-another like it or not.' And this was his way of telling me that no matter how frustrating family members can be, how angry we may get with one-another or how much we wished we had a choice in the matter; that family was here to stay and that they were not going anywhere.

8 Looks that will have you believing that Beige is the new black

This October as the chill sets in and you start pulling out your warm and cozy items; Think of Beige as the new black! Same as black it is a neutral and will pair well with any other colored item. Layering beige and neutrals can make you look so much more refined and expensive than just throwing on your blacks.

Here are a few of my favorite beige looks for this season...

1. This lovely Coat Over Dress look which is finished with a warm beanie. Reminding us a little of Leighton Meester in gossip girl as Blair Waldorf.

Ok yes! lets talk red! You know how they say there is a shade of red lipstick for every complexion? Well I believe there is a red hair color for every girl...

Red can be a dynamic color and can give you the edge you looking for, or choose a different shade and it can be soft, romantic and beautiful too.

Here are some of the red hair colors to look for this Autumn...

1. Copper Red! A warm tone shade for warm tone complexions. It looks very natural and still gives you that stand out look.

10 September Activities to get in to the Autumn Mood

September is the month to slowly sink in to the weather change and transition your mood from summer vibes to cozy. Here are 10 activities to do before the month is over...

1. Have a Bon Fire! 

Before the nights become to cold to sit outside have a intimate group of friends come over for a night of roasted marshmallows, warm wine, hot coco, and spicy sausages. This is something the little ones will love too, so get them involved by having them gather some wood and set up with pillows and blankets. This will also be a great opportunity for some star gazing!

2. Movie Night! 


This is the perfect season to make a watching list. Choose some old and new movies to watch and also start watching new series (there are always new programs starting in September). The great thing about being prepared with a pre-watch list, is that when you have those few couple of hours to sit down and watch something; you wont be wasting any time on last minute searching.
