Category: Weekends

I can’t believe it’s been 8 weeks since in quarantine. It’s safe to say that by now, we are all looking forward to the days where our lives are back to normal in a safe manner. However hard these times seem to feel, to some of us it’s nothing compared to those who are suffering, are in the frontline, nurses, doctors, first responders, and all of those heroes who have taken it upon themselves to serve those most in need. So I can easily complain about how much I want my life back, however, I am extremely grateful for all we have right now and hopeful that soon this all will be over.

Happy Mother’s Day! and enjoy your weekend!.

I swear to you that our neighbors across from us are the chicest neighbors I could ever ask for. This couple is in their 70’s, besides having a landscape company which maintains their grounds, they attend their beautiful garden regularly by themselves. The thing I truly enjoy the most about it is the fact that she wears a red swimsuit and a straw hat while cutting roses and trimming boxes. I can’t stop watching them. Yes, they probably think I’m a freak.

Somehow the Universe is still on our side. Otherwise, I don’t have another explanation as to how on earth was this week gone by so quickly? Considering we are living day by day inside our homes in the most monotonous way ever possible. My heart goes out to those living in tiny quarters, such as studios in big cities… I understand it could be very difficult to quarantine in very small spaces, so next week, I’m going to share a few suggestions that may help to make this time more manageable. (Of course, first and foremost, we are fortunate to have a place where we call home. Hearts go out to those who are not as fortunate.)

Most Corporate Americans are forced to work from home in an effort to halt this crazy virus. If you are in this position, and your work requires a video conference then you must look the part. To assist, I have put together a list of items that you can use to look professional even if it’s from the waist up. Working from home can be stressful especially when we don’t know how long we may be confined in our homes.

I may be going to Paris soon with a couple of lovely girlfriends and I’m so happy that’s the case because just about a week ago I was perusing a few fashion websites and came across these images shot by Steven Meisel for Zara 2019 Fall Winter Campaign and I was instantly sold.  The correlation here is that I’ll be snatching a few of these pieces to take with me to the trip and look expensive and fabulous for a lot less.  As I say all the time, not everyone can wear Prada but we all can wear Zara.

Unfortunately I couldn’t find when some of these pieces will be available for purchase, but there are other beautiful Fall fashion pieces already available on their website.  See a few of my favorites at the end of this post.
