The Monday Rundown

the monday rundown

Drybar Happy Hour Weightless Shampoo: My love for Drybar is never-ending so when they launched a line of products, I knew they would be amazing.  I adore the Happy Hour shampoo…it’s a cleansing shampoo that still lathers nicely, which is true perfection.

Chan Luu EFI Combo Bracelet: This bracelet is amazing for summer and I love the combo of neon mixed with black and white…summer trends collide.

Diego The Cat Pillow: I don’t even try to pretend that I’m NOT a crazy cat lady (I so am), and I love this cat pillow…it’s so real-looking that it might actually scare your guests.

Caprese: With summer fast approaching, I’ve been studying this list of no-bread sandwiches…at the top of my list?  Caprese.  Bam,

The best mother’s day gifts

the best mother's day gifts

Ok, so I’m a big believer that there really isn’t an answer to the “best” mother’s day gift, since the “best” gift really depends on your mother.  But hey, these are gifts that I know MY mom would absolutely love…and that’s good enough for me.

1. Maya Brenner Letter Necklace: What’s not to love about the initials of your children (Jamie and Melissa)?!  I feel like any mother would adore these dainty necklaces.

2. Jouer Cosmetics Deluxe Leather Train Case: I don’t know about you guys but my mom’s makeup case is a complete disaster.  I want to get my mom something classic, simple and chic for her to store her daily makeup products.

3. Flavor Infused Water Bottle: Unlike myself, my mom doesn’t really like drinking water.  From what I hear, infusing water with fruit seems to help the anti-water people get it down in a somewhat enjoyable way.

4. Drybar Buttercup Blow Dryer: I don’t think my mom has purchased a new blow dryer since the early 90s, which is exactly why I want to get my mom a super modern, turbo-infused blow dryer that will literally knock her socks off.

5. Pottery Barn Glass Cloche Jewelry Storage: There’s something really elegant and whimsical about this jewelry holder and, funny enough, my mom’s name starts with an “A,” so I can already imagine what my mom’s jewels will look like in this holder.

Man Up! Book launch party for ross mathews

Ross Mathews Man Up

You know when you meet someone and you just instantly want to become their best friend?  Ross Mathews is one of those people.  I am beyond excited that his first book is available now (!) and I’m even more excited to read it.  The book party, held at Sunset Marquis in Hollywood, was intimate and amazing.  Ross referred to the party as his “book mitvah” and Jay Leno and Chelsea Handler each gave a speech, basically reinforcing what everyone already knows: Ross Mathews is amazing and one to watch in Hollywood.  Make sure you also keep an eye out for his new show on E!, which will be called “Hello Ross.”

NIP + FAB Upper Arm Fix: My arms aren’t what I’d call a “problem area” for me but, you know, a girl can use a little help here and there.  I’m really liking the way this lotion makes my arms feel and look (I believe, at least) firmer.

Donut Pancakes: What’s NOT to like about these?  I’m not big into pancakes but when they look like faux donuts, they’re just plain FUN.

Diptyque “Jonquille” Candle: I’m pretty into the newest scent to the Diptyque family, daffodil.  It’s very spring.

Brevity Signature Necklaces: Nameplate necklaces are so 1998, which is why I’m kind of obsessing over these signature necklaces.  Would it be kind of weird to get your own signature?
