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...

Go Red For Women: American Heart Association Silicon Valley Luncheon

Our Philanthropy was Women's Heart Disease Awareness and Prevention and we had an annual Red Dress Gala fundraiser to raise money for the American Heart Association. This is probably the biggest nonprofit I have donated to and ... Read more...

One trend I've really gotten into this year is a statement making menswear blazer. I've found them to be a great way to elevate and add interest to an otherwise basic outfit.

1901 Brand a Mix of Classic and Preppy Exclusively at Nordstrom + a Gucci Giveaway
The 1901 brand exclusive to Nordstrom reminds me of a mix between J.Crew and Draper James. It's Nordstrom's latest in house clothing line named after the year the first Nordstrom store opened.

I was pleasantly surprised to learn that it was a new line I had never heard of, 1901. I ended up checking out the entire collection online after I ... Read more...
