I’ve been in a serious wardrobe rebuilding mode, so I am ecstatic to share Shopbop’s latest sale. The sale runs now through 11:59pm PACIFIC TIME on November 30th. Here are some of my favorite items that I have my eye on:
I just completed one of the most exhausting and draining weeks of my professional life. And it was great. Fun, educational and adventurous. But the exhaustion showed and my under eyes were a mess. Thank goodness I had skyn ICELAND Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels on hand.
I had a dry and wrinkled mess AND puffiness on top of that… lovely. But these cooling gel patches nourished the skin and brightened and firmed. The skin was soothed and rejuvenated. Elastin restores tone, ginkgo biloba leaf improves blood flow, and Coenzyme Q10 combats premature aging with free radicals.
I’m not alone either:
Like a caffeine jolt to the face, they top my list as a must-have beauty necessity… achieving the effect of an instant eye lift in minutes! Perfectly sized for on-the-go!
I keep mine on for the recommended ten minutes. They are easy to wear and remarkably effective. At $30 for eight pair, they aren’t a bad deal either! Cruelty-free and vegan. Available at Ulta and Amazon.

I was on the road this week and wishing I had this outfit to copy for my airport days. But another note about this week’s trip: I went ahead and packed all full-sized toiletries for the first time in ages. It was a long trip so I figured I might as well be comfortable. I seriously can’t remember the last time I checked bags. But you know what? It was kinda worth it to feel at home. I can’t imagine doing it for a shorter trip but I will definitely consider it next time I am on a longer haul!
Some finds from around the web:
Absolutely obsessed with these pants for winter.
Love this half up-do and it looks so easy!
A while back, I tried Tinder (it didn’t turn out well). Here are some insights to those considering or still in the throws.

I’ve been wanting to try Christie Brinkley’s relatively new skin care line since it hit shelves. And now that I have my paws on this multi-tasker, I know Christie just gets me. This day cream does it all from anti-aging, to working against wrinkles and all while protecting against UV damage.
I’ve been applying this fresh smelling cream each AM. The texture is fairly rich so those with drier skin will love this. But at the same time, there is no heaviness and makeup goes on like a dream over it. And I particularly love that Christie Brinkley Skincare line is certified vegan and cruelty-free with 100% vegan formulations.
I made the decision to not post anything on the blog yesterday. Because of the attacks and violence in Paris, I chose to be quite on the internet other than support for our French bothers and sisters. Paris holds a very special place in my heart. I spent time studying there, growing there and becoming an adult there. There is no other city (including my former hometowns of San Francisco and Austin) that I feel more at home in. It is the quiet, the peace, the light and… of course… the beauty. It horrors me to see violence in such a special place. So yesterday, today and everyday… I stand with you Paris.
Vous aurez toujours mon cœur.
It is the time of year and I can’t wait to try this vegan Hot Buttered Rum.
So excited to try out this gem from NUDESTIX.
Love these tips from renowned makeup artists.
FMyLife (for a guilty laugh).
With a bunch of trips coming up, I found this legroom graphic fascinating.
