Roger’s Gardens Is My New Favorite Place!

9 May

Roger’s Gardens is a family owned home and garden wonderland in Newport Beach, California. The grounds are filled with flowers, trees, plants, fountains, pottery and buildings that house more plants, furnishings and collectables. It’s like a huge indoor/outdoor gift shop with the cutest, unique stuff. From books to candles to cards to perfume, I wanted everything!!!! You can walk the grounds for hours just looking at the scenery and shopping. There are stations where you make your own arrangements, pot your own plants, and my favorite- a butterfly tree, where you write a wish on a wooden butterfly and tie it to the tree.

The cherry on top of it all is an amazing restaurant situated overlooking the lower gardens! The restaurant, Farmhouse, is beautifully chic with covered outdoor seating complete with a gazebo. It’s stunning and the farm to table food is so good. I feel like we went at the perfect time, the reservation was at 2:30 and then we walked around the gardens after. We were there until they closed at 6 but could’ve easily walked around longer because it was that pretty. I bought a milk weed plant and a small coffee table book. Overall, I loved it and can’t wait to go back, especially during holidays, they are known to go all out with their decor for Halloween and Christmas.

14 Apr

Attention fashionistas!!!! The next designer to collaborate with H&M will be Alexander Wang! YES! It’s true and the exciting news was officially announced this past weekend at Coachella! The collection is expected to launch online and in stores November 6. I am beyond excited about this collaboration! Mark your calendars!!!!!!!!! YIPPPEEEEEEE!

Fingers crossed that the collection will include handbags!!!!!!!! Wang’s Rocco Bag and its’s smaller sibling the Rockie bag are some of fashion’s most coveted bags and it would be fabulous if fashionistas on all budgets could carry an Alexander Wang bag of their own!aw

Wear Your Memories With This Cool Bracelet!

19 Dec

I think I may have found the coolest bracelet EVER!  I have always loved industrial, yet feminine jewelry, so I was instantly smitten when I layed eyes on these.  Coordinates Collection bracelets and rings are great because they show the latitude and longitude of any place in the world that you choose. You can pick a place where you first met someone, went to school or had a life achievement i.e. graduation, baby, marriage etc.  That’s not all……on the inside,  you can get a special date engraved and a message as well. These are just so cool and I’m gonna be wearing mine all the time!!!!

Coordinates rings start at $130 and bracelets start at $204. The price depends on the style and the material. For example the plated bracelets start at a couple hundred dollars and the solid rose or yellow gold can set you back thousands of dollars. You can also add birthstones for a bit extra as well. The pieces are all unisex  and come in different sizes. Although they may be an investment piece, these wearable memories will be with you for a lifetime!

Not a ring person? How cute are these bracelets  instead of wedding rings?!!! Just a thought. Get all matchy matchy with your hubby or wife!
