The Kindle Club

Can I call it Book Club when it's not really a book I hold in my hands anymore? It's a Kindle. I was anti electronic reading at first. Believe me, I'm old school. But after a lot of my savvy friends in my NYC Book Club started switching over, and countless other people like my mom, who I never thought would go from page to screen, claimed they LOVED it! I bit the bullet and purchased. And I can say I do NOT regret! I am always asking clients for book suggestions and now I can just download them and I now have a growing stock pile of books to read on the Kindle. Of course I still enjoy turning pages and having books on my shelf, this practice will never stop, but for convenience I say get a Kindle!
The newest book I couldn't put down was Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay. World War ll story of the French occupation. I think it might be a movie too!

Fall Hair Trends

This week my adorable boyfriend sent me a facebook link with Allure magazines top 10 fall hair trends. I love how he see's something like this and randomly thinks of me and sends it! What a guy. I decided to make my own favorites! Braids~ I am obsessed with braids! All kinds, fishtail, over the head, loose in the back, off to the side, around the head. You name it, its in style this fall.
Half Up Half Down~ If you do it go big! I am talking 1960s Bridget Bardot. Sexy volume is always a classic and this fall I predict this as a style must.
The Deep Side Part~ This trend is something that is fun to do for a little more drama. I am constantly cutting my bangs and growing them out. This means I'm always playing with a middle part or side. Side parts are the most flattering for most face shapes in my opinion. To add more drama this fall follow the trend and make it deep.
Here is to some fabulous fall hair thanks to an inspiring little link to my facebook profile! Thanks T!

It's about that time!

It's been since last October that I even touched this blog. I just signed off and decided to give up. I decided that I am a terrible blogger.
Well, I am making a change. I am back in CA and ready to be more active in my endeavors.
Wish me luck and stay posted....

My brother is the Bomb!

Greg is in his 5th and final year of Architecture school. He is amazingly talented and is keeping a blog to track his final year. This being his thesis year he has to come up with an idea and create. I personally am a bit jealous of all the artsy fun. I have secretly always wanted to be a designer. Instead I chose a creative outlet in designing beautiful hair. :) Here is what I helped my bro design when I was home visiting CA last week.....
All the pencils, partly my idea! Yep that's right I'm taking credit for the great art project that will begin his thesis.

Nerd Alert!



I just finished this amazing trilogy of books. The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay. I couldn't put these books down. I think I finished all 3 in a bout 2 weeks time. They are fun reads that leave you wishing there was a fourth. Katniss, Peeta, and Gale live in a barbaric and crazy time when survival and love are crucial to live on.

I am a sucker for teenage fictional series, i.e. Harry Potter, and I hate to admit the Twilight books. This series has been fun. Please read them and let me know what you think.

This month my book club is reading Snow Flower and the Secret Fan. I highly recommend this read as well.

U T A H



This is a little tribute to a state I love! I am coming in about 2 weeks. Everyone knows that this current New Yorker is really a CA girl always and forever, but we can't forget about the 3 years of my life I spent in UT. This is were it all began. At age 18 I ventured far from home with one of my best friends. We grew to become like sisters over these growing up years in UT. We enjoyed the mountains, we made new friends, and had so many many adventures.We got our first apartment, first out of high school crushes and heartbreaks. I learned my trade and did haircuts in the kitchen. We learned how to drive in the snow, I learned how to snowboard. We laughed and cried and loved. I usually come back to these mountains every year hang with my girl, mountain bike hike and swim. Now I am coming back to celebrate this best friends wedding! Here are some photos to the state that will always hold a special place to me...
