If you haven’t heard, we are living in a time where the crossbody handbag is king.   I purchased my first crossbody every-day bag in Summer of 2013.  It’s the Pauric Sweeney Overnight Python Bag.  I purchased it at a Second Time Around (consignment shop) […]

I went to Etto  (on 14th and Q St. NW) yesterday for the second time and the food was utterly amazing again.  I love it’s low-key demeanor-reminds of a quaint little restaurant I ate in Florence last summer near the Duomo there.  It’s Neapolitan-style pizza […]

I only just heard of Peter Danko a few days ago-when I fell in love and purchased a beautiful coffee table with a maple base and glass top at Eisenhower Consignments in Alexandria.  As it turns out Danko is a DC native.  Taken from his […]

One of the most important household  decisions you’ll make is the purchase of seating, so choose wisely!  A good couch can last you upwards of 15 years – my “Mona” from Mitchell Gold alone is almost 10 years old and still looks brand-spanking new. When […]

It’s been a while since I’ve written.  I guess you could say I was looking for inspiration.  Well now I’m back and this is the perfect kick-off post.  I recently helped a friend of mine decorate his condo in Adams Morgan.  Well now the loft […]

This Spring is filled with fashion juxtapositions.  One the one hand, we’re seeing florescent lace trending while on the other we’re seeing a much more minimalist look.  You can’t get much more minimalist than white on white (on white).  Combine a white tank with a […]

This Spring 2014 brings a whole lot of  fun lace dresses and tops.  I was never really attracted to lace much before, but I felt naturally drawn to it for this coming season.  I bought a pretty little Carolina Herrera navy 50s style cocktail dress […]

I had some free time last Sunday, so I wandered into the local Dupont consignment shop hopefully to at least spot some really cool stuff (I’m trying to restrict my shopping for the next month).  February is their big sale when everything on sale is […]
