Holiday Gift-Giving: The Joy of Stocking Stuffers!
One of my favorite holiday shopping experiences is definitely looking for the perfect stocking stuffers. I love the charm, creativity, and just plain fun of this part of the holidays… once I find what I’m looking for. For me, it’s a stressor because not only do I want to find that perfectly clever gift, but I want whoever is going through their stocking to be loving every second of this joyous, happy moment…
The Art of Fabulous Gift-Giving—Luxe Edition!
One of the things I love most about the holidays is gift-giving. We experience such joy finding that perfect “something” for the people we care about and seeing the expression on their faces as they absorb the amount of care that went into your finding that perfect gift. Of course, the adventure of finding that oh-so-perfect gift is often accompanied by the exasperation of seeking it. It is our hope that what we have here will help simplify the process for you!

Pre-owned — European Edition
As a concept, the idea of pre-owned is genius! If you are like me, you love luxury… and yet sometimes it isn’t in the budget. As a stylist I often work with the resellers to pass on my client’s fabulous goodies that they are letting go of, so I know how carefully items are checked over before they accept or reject a piece. This makes for a delicious possibility in terms of your acquiring something you desire for a much more palatable price. Check out what we’ve found and love… and happy shopping!

In our world, essential shoes consist of all the categories that we live in endlessly, including sneakers, booties, and pumps. Keep in mind that not all silhouettes or leathers are equal however! Keep reading for Bobbi’s insight as to what shoes should comprise your ultimate, essential shoe wardrobe.
The Essential Third Piece
A very important finishing touch to every look you wear is the “third piece.” Therefore, it stands to reason, that this component is an essential part of your ultimate wardrobe. In any creative measure, things are always done in odd numbers. So, when you dress you have your top, your bottom and your third piece—which can be a cardigan, a sweater or a jacket. Simple and easy. See what fabulous third pieces we’ve found for your ultimate, essential wardrobe!

Confidence and Recognizing the Beauty in All of Us
Recently we had an opportunity to re-watch the Dove “Real Beauty Sketches” ad that went viral back in 2013 and we were reminded of how closely aligned its message is to that which we have been teaching for years—and that is the importance of the role that confidence plays in how we present ourselves to the world and how others perceive us. This video is a must-see for understanding how we as women operate—and it’s going to blow your mind.
Fall Trend Report—A Realistic View for Our New Normal
This year’s trend report for fall and winter 2020/2021 is a real conundrum.

Easy, Cozy Looks Worth Showering For
In the last few weeks we have been focusing on the concept of stepping up our daily routine of getting ready for the day in a more proactive, “self-care” kind of way, and to help ease us all back into a little bit of our pre-pandemic lives, Bobbi has curated a fabulous collection of comfy, cozy lounge and sportswear that can be mixed and matched and will definitely elevate your look not to mention your outlook.

COVID and Habits for Self-Care
Ahh COVID…the changer of everything in our lives. Regardless of your particular life situation, COVID-19 has certainly changed everything about how we operate.
