Book of the Month!

I am a self confessed book worm so I decided I will try to update my blog monthly on what I am enjoying. Currently I started the book Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. So far I am loving it! I know I am a little late to jump on the band wagon but I did not see the movie so I figured it was high time I pick up the book. (I never watch the movie before I read the book!) 


So here is what my very few spare moments consist of...chocolate, coffee, and Eat Pray Love. Have any of you read this book? What was your take?

OOTD for running work errands.


Going from taking care of the boys to running work related errands requires an outfit that is easy to move in. Yet it still needs to be stylish because I do run a fashion related business. This is an example of an outfit I've found works well for days when I am on mommy duty and work duty. 


More info is included in the video posted before. What do you think? How do you dress on days you are expected to move quickly and at ease yet look put together?

Working or Staying at Home? The Eternal Question...

I am a working mommy. I spend two days per week as a stylist at a local high end boutique and a few other days running my online women's apparel business. Because of this I feel proud and independent. I am also thankful that I am able to stay incorporated in the world of fashion even as a new mommy. However it is hard. It is a constant balance and at times I long to be a full time housewife and mom. Sometimes I hope that in my rush I am not forgetting to cherish the little moments. My boys will only be young once. Fashion will always be here. I am torn in two different directions. What are your thoughts? Will you be or are you a stay at home mom? Or are you committed to holding a career during motherhood?
