It’s my favorite time of year here in Palm Springs which means one thing…Modernism Week is right around the corner! Each year Palm Springs hosts thousands of Modernists in October for Modernism Fall Preview and again in February for 10 days of tours, lectures, parties, and history. It’s a mid century modern dream! The first year […]
In one of my first posts of 2017 I shared a few of my goals for the year with each of you. One of my personal goals/resolutions is to read at least 1 book a month for the year. Sitting here now it seems a bit ambitious, how will I find the time? And then […]
Is anyone else starting to get the Spring wardrobe itch? Don’t get me wrong, I am hardly ready for 90 degrees again but a day or two of mid 70s sounds heavenly! We have had so many cold and rainy days this Winter I have quickly realized where my wardrobe shortages are: sweaters and jackets. […]

Welcome to day 5 of this year’s #DarlingGiftGuide! I don’t know about you but for me the magic of the Holiday’s is really experiencing it through the eyes of a child. Last year was the first year I spent Christmas with Chris’s son and it really made the celebration a million times more magical. The […]
If you personally know me you know that I adore entertaining. Having friends and family over for cocktails, brunch, dinner….any excuse really…is one of my favorite things. I love to cook, I love creating a menu for a dinner party, I love experimenting with new cocktails or wines, and I love bringing people together. I […]
You guys, it’s day 3 of my #DarlingGiftGuide and today I am sharing a few luxe (and some not so luxe) gifts for the avid traveler in your life. I honestly feel like so many people in my world are on constant travels, like Jenna, my sister, and Lucy. What better to get the person […]
Happy November 1st! Can you believe Thanksgiving is 3 weeks from Thursday??? I need to step up my planning game and get our menu planned ASAP! We will be celebrating a small, family Turkey Day this year (last year we had a big Friendsgiving with 10 people) and I am so excited to create new […]
