The Monday Rundown

Pier 1 Felt Roses Pillow: I’ve been trying to add more red into my living room for awhile but I haven’t been able to find the right red pieces…until now.  I’m obsessed with this rose pillow (I bought two!) and they look fab on my bright blue couches.

Rainbow Cookies: With Thanksgiving coming up this week I’ve been feeling a little homesick for New York.  In fact, my Dad even sent me an email listing out all of the Italian-style Thanksgiving food that I’ll be missing (I know, right?) including some of my favorites – spinach lasagna, manicotti and, of course, rainbow cookies for dessert. Sigh.  This recipe is pretty bomb though…if only I knew how to really bake.

House of Harlow 1960 Orlina Python Clutch: I went to an event this past Saturday at Fred Segal West Hollywood to celebrate Nicole Richie’s House of Harlow 1960 Holiday Collection and I fell in LOVE with this python clutch.  I didn’t actually purchase it (yet) but I’m seriously contemplating…

Clarisonic Mia Skin Cleansing System: Everyone loves the Clarisonic but now it comes in JAGUAR print.  I kind of want a new one now.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Clarisonic limited edition system




So like I mentioned the other day, I’m really not that into the whole Breast Cancer Awareness product coverage but when I found out about this limited edition Clarisonic Plus Sonic Skin Cleansing System, I had to tell you guys about it. Why it this product worthy of a post? Well, for one, the Clarisonic is amazing. Two, look how freaking adorable the design is. Three, Clarisonic is donating 50% of the profits from sales to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. To date, Clarisonic has raised $600,000 to support breast cancer research- phenomenal.
