I’m pretty sure Kate Spade should pay me at this point for the incessant promotion on my blog, or at least offer me some free swag, don’t you think? I can’t help that all her designs are so perfectly feminine with just the right touch of rebellion. Case in point: these gorgeous pumps. Vibrant yellow seems like it is going to be the shade of the spring, and paired with this playfully striped heel, you’ll be the life of the party. Or at least the target for jealous glances.
One thing I absolutely love about the holiday season is the ability to wear sparkles and sequins with reckless abandon. Granted, in my world, it would be year round, but in an attempt not to be greedy, I’ll take what I can get. Although I don’t tend to have events worthy of all those glorious sequined dresses, I can totally justify the purchase of this fabulous sequined scarf. I think it would compliment a casual Christmas lunch or dinner outfit perfectly!
Our third day in Barcelona was a good one. We took it easy. We visited the Picasso Museum, strolled through the port and had a very romantic dinner complete with wine and paella. I think this city is just made for romance and adventure – forget Paris (but that’s a whole other post). Although our stay got a little wetter than usual, the weather was still fantastic. It was beginning to cool down a bit, but not enough to need a coat and the hazy sky made it look even more foreign and mysterious. Have I mentioned that I loved Barcelona?

Little triangles seem to be all the rage in terms of accessories this Winter. Although I no longer visit brick and mortar stores, and am visiting proper online stores less and less frequently as of late, I can report that this is at least the case on Etsy. I have favorited many a triangular necklace, ring or, in this case, earrings. Not on Etsy (& coming with a major price tag), this mismatched pair of studs just makes me smile. I think it would make the perfect gift for a fashionista wife or sister, what say you?
Sometimes it’s really difficult to always have your nails look presentable. I don’t know about the rest of you, but it can take longer than anticipated and really test your patience at times. For that reason, I was interested in the whole nail decal revolution. However, Incoco are not your regular nail decals. They are nail stripes made of real nail polish, complete with base, color and top coat. The company boasts itself as providing the world’s only flexible nail polish, which can be contoured to fit any nail shape or size.
