Twillys are a fun way to customize and dress up your bags. So I wanted to share 8 ways to tie an Hermes Twilly on your bag handles to give you some inspiration. It's up to you if you want to tie a twilly on one or both handles of your bags. In my personal opinion, I think you either wrap a twilly around each handle or none at all. Having a twilly on your bag handles will protect the leather. Therefore, you will get inconsistent wear on your handles if they're not on both. But if you're just looking to get one twilly to decorate your bag with many of these ways to tie an Hermes twilly work great as any accessory to your bag. If you're not concerned about wear on your bag handles, I highly recommend giving these a try! And the beauty about these is you can always switch them up! They're super easy to do, and don't take much time, so on ... Read more...
Art Comes in Many Forms
I believe I moved to the Peninsula at just the right time. After landing a job in Los Altos and commuting for months I knew it was what I needed to do to stay sane but the thought of never returning to my beloved San Francisco was a hard pill to swallow. Thankfully this "sleepy town" is getting a much needed wake up call! With businesses like the Exploratorium coming soon onto State Street and new boutiques onto Main Street the dynamic of the downtown area is definitely changing. SFMOMA On The Go, recently launched ... Read more...
Fashion Trick: The Ballet Belt
You most likely don't know this, but I used to be a ballet dancer. Ballet was my life from age three until age 18. When my career ended, due to injury, I held onto bags of my things in storage, from one-of-a-kind leotards, warmers, and even my custom pointe shoes, in hopes that one day I would miraculously no longer have chronic achilles tendentious and be able to get right back in the studio and be as good as I was prior to my injury (sadly I knew that would not be my reality). So with my latest move I finally went through everything ... Read more...
Stella & Dot: Shop for a Cause
I was so excited when I saw this in my inbox yesterday. Nothing could pull at my heart strings any more than this. As a military wife myself, I feel many people don't give the wives and girlfriends of military men the credit they deserve. It is tough having someone else (and when I say someone else I mean the military) direct your life from where ... Read more...
All Wrapped Up
It's November and the temperature has definitely dropped so I have pulled out my sweaters, boots, scarves, and gloves. I love to layer but I hate to feel too bundled when dressing for work. No one wants to look like a snow bunny at their desk, right? My main issue with cold weather is that my stylish fitted blazers and jackets are uncomfortable when layered over long sleeves and sweaters. To solve that issue I decided to layer my Burberry button down shirt with my cozy Piazza Sempione wrap sweater. I have to say this is one of ... Read more...
Ruffles and Lace
When looking for new pieces to compliment my ever growing wardrobe I prefer to invest in pieces that I know I will have in my closet for years to come. This Wendy Hill lace short sleeve jacket was one of those pieces. I purchased this blouse around 8 years ago and I still love it as much as the day I bought it. One of my work week outfit staples is pairing a feminine blouse with skinny jeans and a great pair of sky high heels. Here I decided to pair two of my favorite things, ruffles and lace. What is your staple outfit for ... Read more...
