Cattle Baron’s Ball
Unless you are living under a rock you already know the good news. But it bears repeating. Last Thursday night, Co-Chairs Cindy Stager and Jill Tananbaum announced the following great news about the 2014 Cattle Baron's Ball. As a past ball chairman, I am proud to...

sundance fashion
One thing is clearly obvious when you attend Sundance Film Festival. You are there for film. Your fashion statement becomes more practical than couture. Staying warm is of utmost importance. One year I remember walking to a theater in the pouring down snow. ...

sundance film festival recap
Another Sundance Film Festival has come and gone and I am again astonished how much film moves me. I did a couple of posts while in the midst of the festival but this post will be a recap of how my week played out. This was my fourth festival to attend and each year...

Where there’s tea, there’s hope
Where there's tea, there's hope I thought I would post this again since the event is this Saturday. It was originally posted on January 13th. Do you know where I am on Sunday night's? In front of the TV watching Downton Abbey. Season 4 has just begun and I am...

sundance film festival continues
Yep, I'm still here. My journey at Sundance Film Festival continues. Non-stop films, cocktail receptions, dinner events and friend gatherings. It's exhausting I tell you. But it's invigorating too. The cinematic journey continues with LAND HO (funny), LIFE AFTER...

Sundance Film Festival update: OK, so I am not good at keeping up with chronicling my 2014 Sundance Film Festival on a  day by day basis. Hey, I'm doing good to get everywhere I need to go. This update will be more of a visual experience. I can't even...

super bowl sunday
It occurred to me that while I am still attending Sundance Film Festival, Super Bowl Sunday is around the corner. Tired of the same old queso and chips? This came across my desk and I thought I would share in case you are looking to spice it up a bit. Enjoy! xoxo-...

Sundance Film Festival – 2014
"A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be." ~Douglas Pagels We have just jetted off to Park City, Utah. I am attending my 4th annual Sundance Film Festival.  Who is "we"? That would be me and my favorite...

birthdays
January is the best month. The holidays are over, you have put everything away, it's a new year, New Year's resolutions have been made and you have probably started a diet. And, it's my birthday month. To me, birthdays are a time to celebrate. With family, friends,...

These boots are made for walking
Tall black Ralph Lauren rain boots, white Joe Fresh jeans, Hermes belt. Animal print Schutz bootie with  Zara skinny jeans. Burberry rain boot, Burberry umbrella and our Norfolk terrier - Sparky Baby, it's cold (and wet) outside! Honestly, I love it because it's BOOT...
Ready, set, CLEANSE
To cleanse or not to cleanse? Well, if you indulged in the holidays like I did, the answer is CLEANSE. I am doing a quick master cleanse this week. Why? Because I need to start 2014 without any peppermint bark and toffee residuals in my body. The trick to success is...

2014—Let’s do this!
New Year’s Eve, December 31, setting goals, what’s ahead, don’t look behind… sound familiar? Every year we go through the very same thing. Seems like a lot of pressure to me. Why? Why start off the new year with all of that on your shoulders?
Acting: The next phase of life
In case you are wondering, I came in to “the biz” late in life. I have always loved film. Every facet of it. Watching film, analyzing film, discussing film… it takes you to another place. It is also something that every generation can enjoy.Â

The day after…moving on from the holidays
Today I met my college roommate, lifelong friend and Godmother of my children for lunch. This is our annual tradition. Let the hectic Christmas plans come and go and then we will meet for a long lunch and exchange gifts. I look forward to this every year.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
It's the most wonderful time of the year. Or is it? Are you ready for the holidays?  Is anyone ever ready? It never seems to play out the way it does on TV or in film. In my mind, it should be just like it is on a soap opera.  A lot of sparkle, shine and glamour. ...
Ah, the coffee meeting
A friend asked me to meet her for coffee today. That excites me because I love meeting for coffee.  A lot. My favorite place for a coffee meeting of late is NUMBER ONE in Highland Park Village. Why do I like it? It is calm, clean, refreshing, tasty, beautiful and...
To winter white or not
I am a huge fan of social media. Probably because I am a visual learner. It just makes it easy to absorb. One of my obsessions is Pinterest. I love pinning things I like, want and need. And one of the things I like is FASHION. To winter white or not? I do it a...
