Giving Back is the New Black – Fighting Hunger with #HalfUnited

Posted on November 18, 2014 | Filed Under: Social Good | Tags: fighting hunger necklace, giving back is the new black, Half United | Leave a Comment

A few months ago, I was scrolling through images on my Instagram feed & I came across a photo of a cool necklace made with a recycled bullet casing. The necklace is made by a company called Half United. Not only are the necklaces stylish & so versatile (I can wear them with t-shirts & jeans, tanks, sweaters, etc.) but it also has a social good component to it. That’s because Half United donates HALF of the profits from every product … [Read more...]

Rodan + Fields REDEFINE Acute Care™ Skincare for Expression Lines

Posted on November 7, 2014 | Filed Under: Product Reviews | Tags: REDEFINE Acute Care, Rodan + Fields, Skincare for Expression Lines | 5 Comments

Let’s be honest, I’ve seen more wrinkles on my face in the last five years than I care to admit. I don’t know whether it’s a combination of diet; lack of sleep; gaining weight, losing weight & then gaining it again (which I understand affects skin elasticity). It’s probably a combination of all three. Then again, I’m sure all of that time spent laying out in the sun during my high school years (before I knew any better) probably contributed … [Read more...]

The Mission Belt: A Stylish Belt with a #SocialGood Mission

Posted on October 28, 2014 | Filed Under: Social Good | Tags: Mission Belt, no holes belt, social good | Leave a Comment

Product was provided for this post as part of an opportunity with The Brand Connection. All opinions expressed are my own. My husband rotates between two belts on a regular basis with his office slacks, jeans & cargo shorts. Since he has lost about 15-20 pounds in the last year, he has had to cinch up his belt even more, getting down to the last belt hole. It was looking like he’d need a new belt at a different belt size. That’s when I … [Read more...]

The following post contains a giveaway that was sponsored by Microsoft Stores. All opinions are 100% my own. On September 19th, I was invited to preview the brand new Microsoft Store at Westfield Topanga in Canoga Park. The store was buzzing with excitement as the retail associates prepped for the grand opening that was taking place the very next day. The first thing you notice as you walk in the store is the giant Microsoft display screen. … [Read more...]

Shopping at Don Roberto Jewelers in Van Nuys!

Posted on September 28, 2014 | Filed Under: Reviews | Tags: Don Roberto Jewelers, Hello Kitty watches, Van Nuys jewelry store | 6 Comments

Generally I dress for comfort & keep my jewelry to a minimum. However I do like to dress up from time to time & every once in a while throw on a little bling. So when I heard about Don Roberto Jewelers Anniversary Sale & Giveaway, I thought it would be a perfect time to check out their Van Nuys store. With Hello Kitty Con about a month away, I decided that I needed some jewelry or accessories to jazz up my wardrobe. I had heard … [Read more...]

Shared Spaces at WORK. by The Office Stylist

Posted on September 23, 2014 | Filed Under: Misc, Reviews | Tags: coworking, shared spaces, The Office Stylist | 2 Comments

Editor's Note: As of Summer 2016, this co-working space is closed. Two weeks ago I had a work presentation over in Santa Monica. It started at 11:30am & I knew that I had several writing projects due that day. So after I dropped off my daughter at school, rather than going back home to work on the computer, I headed over to Sherman Oaks to try out WORK. by The Office Stylist, which is a fabulous looking co-working space. That way I could … [Read more...]
