This pendant necklace has been around in a zillion iterations for several years now, and I finally bought one for myself because I wanted to wear more red accents and was hoping for a round necklace (like a station necklace or a floating diamond effect) with red accents. At first I almost returned this one … Read More about Coffee Break: Elisa Birthstone Pendant Necklace

I’m not … Read More about Suit of the Week: White House Black Market
Coffee Break: ‘Lasso Western’ Skinny Belt

Office Beauty Hall of Fame: Orgasm Afterglow Lip Balm
I know a lot of readers love Dior’s Addict Lip Glow — so I was happy to buy it in berry a few months ago to add to my collection of tinted lip balms. And honestly, for me, the Addict Lip Glow in berry is a bit too pink, so I rarely wear it. I keep … Read More about Office Beauty Hall of Fame: Orgasm Afterglow Lip Balm
