Dreaming of many things, but namely the swish of my skis on snow with the cold air blowing in my face. Buy All the Things I am obsessed with my Season Equipment skis. I LOVE them. I own the Nexus 177cm. They are the best. They ski beautifully. They look beautiful. I went through it…
Even if it really means List-of-Things-I’m-Gonna-Buy-Myself-at-After-Christmas-Sales. Because really, when it comes to gifts, I’d rather have presence than presents. Let’s gift each other spending time together—while doing cool things. Christmas Gifts that Are Not Material That I’d Like: Tickets to an NFL football game. Will travel for tickets. Wine-tasting. Catalina. Someone planning a hiking +…
Burgers aren’t hard to find in Aspen (LOVE Belly Up’s double and sweet potato fries!!) But burgers under $10? Rare. So when Mountain Naturals, the crunchy store in the ABC, announced lunch specials like a $6.50 burger, I had to check it out. Served on an english muffin with as many toppings as you’d like,…

Anyway, here are my suggestions: Pre-Party: From 4-7pm, let Lovely Austin Boutique help you get ready…

But people, spices are awesome. They make boring things amazing and amazing…

Run, post-race partay, AND gorilla suit. The Austin Gorilla Run is coming soon! Hot pink dye/rollerblades on your…
I love it. It’s only $72 in sterling silver. Buy it at JulesMarie.com Apparently this friend is a wildly successful jewelry designer … who knew?
… and so does Serena! Me and my fave Gossip Girl gal now share a pair of FABULOUS earrings: I rocked these Rich Rocks NYC ‘Oversized Hanging Smokey Faceted Dangles’ earrings–fancy talk for smoking hot faux-crystal huge sparklers–to a birthday party this weekend and got a TON of compliments. Everyone loved them. They’re only $75!…
