Sunday Morning Swap: Little Swappies

One part of my work as a blogger that I truly enjoy is having the opportunity to try something new, or explore an otherwise unchartered experience.  Meaning, something that I would probably not do otherwise. And then of course, the best part is to share this info with YOU so we can all learn and […]

Our Gray-te New Dining Room

I just couldn’t take the banality of our dining room anymore. It had great features with its spacious size, good light, pre-existing moldings and hardwood floors. But it was time for a change from the Terra Cotta painted-over wallpaper and Navajo White walls that was our dining room for the past 3 years.  And I […]

Meet my husband, Mike (aka: The Hubs.)  He’s been a great source of support and inspiration for a lot of my work on mom a la mode. When he expressed an interest in getting in on the “guest post” action, I thought it would be fun for you to get Dad A La Mode’s perspective […]

Behind the Scenes at petitePARADE/Vogue bambini NY Kids Fashion Week 2013

Early in my fashion career, I spent a good amount of time working on fashion shows and showroom events.  You would be amazed as to how much work goes into making a 10- to 15-minute presentation look chic and completely effortless. To give you some perspective: Many weeks and many hours of physical and emotional […]

For the Love of Design: Customized Facebook Cover Art  {Giveaway}

One thing I love about blogging is how it allows me to cross paths with some very cool people from my very former life in the fashion industry. As much as I enjoy being primarily home with my son and freelancing, I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t miss the collaborative process that […]

{Recipe} Meatless Monday: One-Pot Wonderful Pasta with Broccoli

We’re big fans of keeping at least one day a week meatless in the mom a la mode household.  And even bigger fans of a family-friendly, one-pot meal.  So when my friend and fellow blogger, Triple Threat Mommy asked me to do a guest post on her blog, I knew I wanted to share this […]
