Today’s Fashionable Friend Friday is Dina Pfohl of R&D Beads. I love when friends take their passion and turn it into something great. Dina and her friend, Riki Link LOVE jewelry. They have an eye for detail and use that combo to make the most beautiful jewelry pieces. They design and painstakingly bead every piece. Their necklaces and earrings and bracelets are incredible. Dina and Riki are able to custom and ship any piece as well. Here are some photos when I visited their showroom but you can check out their Instagram HERE.
It is just too hot in the North East today. I think this is our 3rd heatwave so far this summer!!! I usually post a favorite recipe on Thursday but who can think about cooking. SO today I am suggesting, ordering in or going out. Before you do, here is an awesome video that my BC friend Pete Maddocks shot with BMW for Father’s Day. The spot is really just an amazing feel good piece so you can just breathe, enjoy and take a break from the heat. Pete is so talented..I can’t wait to see more…I know the next big thing for him is just around the corner..don’t worry… I will keep you posted for sure…Stay Cool!!!!

We are switching gears with books today for this week’s Book Club Monday. If you LOVED, All The Light We Cannot See and Orphan Train you are going to absolutely LOVE today’s pick, The Diplomat’s Daughter by Karin Tanabe. It has been called “timeless” and “captivating” by the Washington Post….Here is the story:
When Emi and her mother are abruptly sent back to Japan, Christian enlists in the United States Army, with his sights set on the Pacific front—and, he hopes, a reunion with Emi—unaware that her first love, Leo Hartmann, the son of wealthy of Austrian parents and now a Jewish refugee in Shanghai, may still have her heart.
Fearful of bombings in Tokyo, Emi’s parents send her to a remote resort town in the mountains, where many in the foreign community have fled. Cut off from her family, struggling with growing depression and hunger, Emi repeatedly risks her life to help keep her community safe—all while wondering if the two men she loves are still alive.
As Christian Lange struggles to adapt to life as a soldier, his unit pushes its way from the South Pacific to Okinawa, where one of the bloodiest battles of World War II awaits them. Meanwhile, in Japanese-occupied Shanghai, as Leo fights to survive the squalor of the Jewish ghetto, a surprise confrontation with a Nazi officer threatens his life. For each man, Emi Kato is never far from their minds.
Flung together by war, passion, and extraordinary acts of selflessness, the paths of these three remarkable young people will collide as the fighting on the Pacific front crescendos. With her “elegant and extremely gratifying” (USA TODAY) storytelling, Karin Tanabe paints a stunning portrait of a turning point in history. – Amazon.com
