Roc’s Room: Ready, Set, Glow! with Disney Paint {Sponsored}

The mom a la mode household is Spring-ing into action by tackling a few much-needed home renovation projects.  Just about a month ago, we had our dining room repainted, complete with a few decorative additions like wainscoting (post on this to come!) And as I type this, we are receiving estimates on window replacement throughout […]

But this season, why not […]

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 […]

Jon Bon Jovi’s Soul Kitchen: Reviewed by The Awesome Redhead

I’ve heard lots of buzz about Soul Kitchen, Jon Bon Jovi’s community restaurant based in Red Bank, New Jersey, and have been dying to go for several reasons: 1.

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 […]

Getting Adjusted to Healthier Living

Lately, I’ve had green juice, personal training, whole foods and chiropractic care on my radar.  And it’s a goal of mine to get back into yoga before the year is over. I’ve always worked out and have tried to make good food choices — which has been difficult at times — but it’s only in […]
