Mother's Day Gift Guide

What to give the woman who has given the world to you? Something special! I've tried to come up with some indulgent, girly, and luxe gift ideas for Mom. You know, something she might not buy herself but would love and enjoy.  Consider her hobbies, decorating style, and personal style when shopping for her special gift.  Is she into golf or gardening or cooking?  Or maybe the gift she would like the most is some time with you. Mani/pedi anyone?

Seasonal Look: Metallic Accessories for Winter

In my opinion, the best time for shinny, icy, metallic accessories is in the winter. The high shine finish is reminiscent of winter, snow, and ice and actually brightens an otherwise dull look.  So throw on your favourite metallic bracelet for a blinding arm-party or pop on those reflective sunglasses to keep the glare out of your eyes. Any way you choose to wear it, metallic accessories are just right for winter.
