Stripes. Check ‘em:                    This Tibi jacket is adorable. Stripes on stripes. Stripes playing peek-a-boo. Stripes and gingham. Jenna Lyons rockin’ rugby stripes. Striped tanks scream “summer.” A striped ceiling? Yes, please! I need a striped chair. Or chairs. Further proof that I’m insane stripe obsessed: this. That is what...

Listen Up
In honor of its annual Keyholder Event (details below), The Women’s Fund of Central Ohio asked me to write about the woman who has had the greatest impact in my life, and what women and girls can do to spark change in their community.  I knew immediately that I would write about my mom. But what would I say?! My mom has had a profound impact on my life− one I didn’t think I could convey in...

Well, I guess you could say the trend has been updated. Now, instead of sporting your name, you can sport your Twitter handle. BaubleBar (great site, by the way) will create a necklace with your...

Best. Speech. Ever.
“I’ve had, like, eleven drinks since you last saw me.” ~Seth Meyers Ha! Recognize the duds? Those photos were taken at last night’s CFDA Awards, which Seth hosted. I was going to post my favorite lines from his opening speech, but, really, the whole thing is hilarious, so I’m givin’ it all to ya: I hope that you like me, but fashion people like hating...

Character Sketches
A while back I posted this Oscar de la Renta ad illustrated by David Downton. As you can see, his work is beautiful. So I was super stoked when I heard he’d added portraits of three “Mad Men” characters −Don, Joan, and Roger− to his repertoire. Check ‘em: Perfection!  Downton talks about his obsession with “Mad Men” here. Credits: David Downton/British...
