Guilty Pleasures: Lips Are Movin
Mondays can be hard, especially after a vacation. I think it’s time for a little dance break. Don’t you?

Gift Guide: Coffee Table Books
I love a good coffee table book, but rarely pick one up for myself. There’s something about them that feels so indulgent, which is why they make a really wonderful gift. Here are six, gorgeous picks for a few of the people in your life. 1. The DIY genius – Happy Handmade Home 2. The jet-setter –…

Guilty Pleasure: Taylor Swift
Whenever I see Taylor Swift, I’m struck by how grown-up and poised she seems all of a sudden. I feel like a proud aunt, which sounds a little crazy I know. Her new album, 1989, is filled with smart, fun, catchy pop music. I can’t get enough. Bad Blood, Out of the Woods and Blank…

On My Bookshelf: We Were Liars, Reconstructing Amelia and Landline
I have been holding out on you, and for that, I am deeply sorry. I have read three books in the last few months that I really liked, and I never told you about them. Forgive me. We Were Liars by E. Lockhart: This book stayed with me days after finishing it. The story surrounds…

At the risk of coming off like some sort of Ariana Grande mega fan, I’m really liking this song. A lot. So in the event your Monday is a little too typical, here’s something to get your feet taping (under your desk of course).

On My Bookshelf: The Rosie Project
I read one of the most charming books on our vacation, and I’ve been dying to tell you about it. The Rosie Project by Graeme Simison is a comedy and romance rolled into one. The protagonist, Don Tillman, is a brilliant scientist, who is incredibly honest and socially awkward, but somehow still very charming. In a quest to find the perfect…

On My Bookshelf: The Glass Kitchen
A few days ago, the husband and I took a really brief, but fun vacation to Boston and Hartford, Connecticut. Since I was a little girl, I’ve always packed a large amount of entertainment when I travel. It used to be coloring books and Barbies, but now, it’s about 8,000 books and 25 magazines. For this trip,…
