5 Favorite Things

Stylish Mama:

These beauties have been on my wish list for two years.  Good thing is there are a lot of "knockoff" boots that are hitting the market this fall/winter.  Being a shorty, I will have to do my hunting for the right boot for my height.  But I am certainly not spending $800 on these ones!  Yikes~





My love of tie shirts has me loving this classic bow tie blouse by Kate Spade.  This look always look sharp in black and white.  I have a short sleeve top just like this, but the long sleeve one would make a great addition to a fall/winter wardrobe.

She Leaves a Little Sparkle Mug
Pier 1 has this beautiful mug and I immediately fell in love with it. I’m not really a mug person but this one caught my eye, love the message and the gold detail.   If you ask me, in my little organized world, everyone would just have ONE mug, no need for twenty of them.   But back to the real world, this mug is definitely a very stylish way of drinking wine, I mean coffee. Just saying….


Dolores Promesas Heaven Fall/Winter 16/17 Collection -  Floral prints are big this season and my favorite Spaniard actress did it again.  She wore a midi skirt from this collection and looks absolutely stunning.  Perfect look for this colder weather.  The bold flower print against the black is so eye catching.  One of my favorite details are the side pockets.   


For the love of pumpkin everything!

Tougas Family Farm in Northborough, MA is a great farm to pick apples.  They offer their guests a playground and barnyard with small animals to pet.   I visited this New England farm for the third time this week and have to say its a special place for my daughter and I.




If ever in Brooklyn, NY you must try Almondine Bakery in Dumbo, Brooklyn.  This bakery has a quaint Parisian feel to it when you walk in.  I enjoyed the strawberry shortcake which had fresh slices of strawberries with sponge cake and whipped cream.  A new favorite place in a fun city to visit.

MARC JACOBS LE MARC LIP CREME LIPSTICK - KISS KISS BANG BANG
The formula and pigmentation of this lipstick is priceless.  It's hydrating but not glossy.  The color is a perfect rose type tone for my skin color.  Its a step up from a nude color and like that.  Next time you visit Sephora, ask for a sample.



Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser

Cetaphil Men Daily Face Wash
I've used so many facial cleansers, high end products and drugstore and I have to say that Cetaphil is the winner.  It doesn't over dry my skin and leaves it feeling just right.  Now that they have the Men's line, my husband loves it.  I even tried switching him back to the regular Daily Facial and he noticed a difference so it seems the "Men" wash is really catered to their skin needs.  Bonus for me because mine lasts longer now...lol



We're enjoying fall but sometimes dressing for it is so challenging.  Anyone else feel our pain?





Happy Weekend Friends!!

Stephanie's On Newbury  has a lobster guacamole on their menu.  Wow, its amazing.  Fresh guac, corn taken right from the cob, diced tomato salsa, and of course your N.E. lobster piled on top. It's a must order if you are ever in Boston.

The Wet Brush has easily become my new best friend while taking care of my daughters hair.  Her hair is very thick and can easily become tangled.  When she comes out of the bath I use the wet brush and it really helps.  In fact now she checks which brush I am using, and if it's not this one, she will make me go get it.  I bought it in bamboo wood shown below.

Dolce & Gabbana Botanical Garden collection has me on cloud 9.  Just so you know, I love everything that has a leaf print and I feel this entire collection was made just for me, JAJAJA, let's be real.  My favorite Spaniard actress wore my favorite dress from the collection to an event and I haven't stopped swooning over it.  The leaves are embroidered and the the insects are actual brioches made from colored crystals.  Ohhh the details!!!  

Paula Echevarria


Brooklyn, a movie about an Irish immigrant in the 1950s and her journey in life where she must choose which life she wants between two different countries.  This movie hit home, I could relate to it in so many different levels.  This movie was definitely a tearjerker for me, just ask Stylish Mama. Good thing she made me some good comfort food that day because after watching this movie, you just want to curl into a ball.  I definitely will be reading the book because "home is home"....sniff sniff

Brooklyn


We love fall season and this meme is just one of the reasons why...






Happy Fall Ya'll!
