Play Ball

Get a group of your closest girlfriends and their guys and have a day at the sandlot for a few games of softball. Grab your favorite baseball tee, an ice chest full of beer with some easy appetizers and make a day of fun in the sun with friends and lovers.

Sneaker Style


Need another reason to go out walking, will these dotted babies do the trick?! As a child of the nineties and with a shoe obsessed mother, I grew up wearing close to every color of Keds, so when I saw this collaboration between Keds and Kate Spade, I couldn't help but clap my hands a little. Aren't they perfect for this spring season?!

this week's favorites...






With spring in full force I've become inspired by fresh blooms, newly arranged bouquets of flowers,  a pop of color to fill my home and the subtle smells of just picked flowers from the market. What's inspiring you this spring season?! Happy Weekend!!

this week's favorites...






When I was little whenever we went to LA, specifically Beverly Hills my parents would take us to the quaint diner style restaurant inside the hotel. All I really remember (because it's been so long), you can basically order whatever you want and hopefully be sitting next to a celebrity. Having been a little girl my sister was going through this phase of watching Jurassic Park nonstop and it just so happened we were sitting by Laura Dern and then husband Ben Harper. I know this because my sister kept nudging me that the woman was indeed Ellie from Jurassic Park. I was saddened that my family didn't make last week for breakfast at the restaurant on our way to pick my sister from the airport, but it's most definitely on my mind and no doubt its happening when I make my way back to LA!!!

Jane Lilly Warren








To be honest I have no idea (or memory of) how I stumbled upon Matchbook Magazine but I just happened to come across it literally as the first issue went live. A quick and funny story, I was adamant on finding this baby in print; I literally went to every place I could where print subscriptions were sold and everyone said they had never heard of Matchbook Magazine and it sure wasn't available in print. I finally caved into the world of digital magazines and instantly fell in love with the Matchbook girls Katie and Jane. The magazine just screamed me and I'm still a dedicated follower and huge fan of these girls and I honestly couldn't be happier with the transformation of this little gem of magazine. In the latest issue, co-founder Jane Lilly gave her readers a little peek at her Upper East Side home and it couldn't be any lovelier. What do you think?
