The Recap And Fashion Drama of The RHONY Season 8: Ep 20 Finale

Finally it’s the finale of the Real Housewives of New York and my mom is hooked. She is still horrified, but slightly hooked. “These women are so pathetic.” I agree but explain there is little real about reality TV and that they are laughing all the way to the bank. Anyway, we miss the first 15 minutes because I didn’t know it was starting early and again, I don’t have a DVR…which is probably for the best. I’m winging it again. So I have to watch it a little out of order. Sorry in advance

A New Bag Style You Must Have For Fall

Bags have finally gotten a rock star moment. Guitar strap bags were seen on the Fall ’16 runways of Lanvin, Prada, Valentino, Burberry and Fendi.

So, um, here’s the deal. I’m on vacation this week (and next) and don’t have access to a DVR (which helps me get the quotes in my lengthy Real Housewives Of New York City recaps). Therefore we are going to try something new. I am going to wing it! I am watching the show in real time and just pray I can keep up! This may or may not work, especially since my mother is sitting next to me and I expect her to say, “What’s going on? What did she say? What’s wrong with these people? You watch this crap?” She just asked me to turn up the volume. I’m screwed

Enjoy An End Of Summer (Jewelry) Garden Party!

I’m throwing a little garden party tonight so it got me thinking, you can enjoy your garden any time of the year by wearing garden jewelry! That’s right, jewelry of leaves, bugs, flowers and birds are very on trend right now. So even in the dead of winter you can brighten your day with your own personal garden arm, ear or neck garden party! Oh and don’t forget about pins and brooches – they are having another moment too
