I've had a soft spot for A-line skirts ever since I was a little girl. Maybe it has something to do with the glamorous ladies who wore them: Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, and my gorgeous Nonna. The silhouette brings a simple elegance that no other piece can bring. A-line skirts are feminine, powerful, and glam all at the same time but they can be tough to pull off sometimes. After years of trying to incorporate them into my wardrobe, I have found the key to success. In order to style an A-line ... VIEW THIS POST

Merging Interior Decor Styles
One of the first requests I ever received for a blog post was to write about how to merge styles when moving in with someone.

Just a few doors down, I discovered my new heaven on Earth - Dolcetti boutique. It has the cutest clothes ever - ... VIEW THIS POST
At Home Gel Manicure
Anyone who knows me knows that I am absolutely obsessed with painting my nails and having my nails done. I am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my manicures - if I see one single chip, I usually chip off every single piece of polish and have to start from scratch. This meant that I was doing my nails every other day. Insert eye roll. The answer to this problem was gel manicures! A shiny, perfect manicure for up to two weeks without chipping? Yes please. Sign me up for that! I started ... VIEW THIS POST
