By Katrice It's hard to believe that I've been blogging for nearly a year (17 days until MVL's 1st birthday). And, as cliche as it may sound ... it has been one of the best experiences of my life.

By Katrice I'm always talking to friends who live in different cities about the things we're weeding out of our wardrobes. And more often than not, one of us wants something the other one is getting rid of. That gave me an idea to work on organizing a clothing swap amongst my friends. If you're game, e-mail me, and let's get it crackin'....
By Katrice I stopped making New Year's resolutions a long time ago. I'm always seeking balance and resolve in my life, and thus am prone to making changes when the need arises. It could be the next moment or the next day. It's probably the only area I could describe myself as spontaneous in. But, I'm going to try something different this year...
By Katrice I'm counting down the days until my two-week vacation. So many plans and plenty of time to do everything I've been imagining with a little foresight. I have curated a list of restaurants to try, movies to see, makeup tricks to master, places to explore, sales to catch. (Yes, I will be shopping. I've already seen deals way too good to...

In mine: Genius. Crux New York accessories are so many things ... all of them good. If you want...

By Katrice My poor hands and feet have been taking a beating in this unusually chilly weather. I'm constantly gobbing extra moisturizer on my lips, face and elbows, and my skin is still begging for more. No more cutesy scented lotions and balms ... it's time to pull out the big guns. Enjoy a little tenderness with these tried and true hydrators. Nivea Creme,...
