I love the look of a dining room side board. Last Thanksgiving was the beginning of the end of my Dining Room. I know I have written about this but the day after Thanksgiving I was cleaning under my glass top table and I don’t know what happened but it shattered in a million pieces. I was devastated. Since then that room has snowballed. I really think what was missing all this time..was a good looking sideboard. I started doing a research. What do you think of these….head over to instagram to see what I ended up choosing!!!!!
Sorry we are off one day today and are bring you Book Club Monday one day late. Yesterday I was working on a group sale for Hamilton for early Feb. The date will prob be sometime during the first week..I will keep you posted…..
In the meanwhile, this week’s choice is The Dutch House by Ann Patchett. It was so funny, I had this all ready to go and then I got a group text that my book club pick it for this month as well. Everyone is loving it!! Here is the story….
I have received a few emails about the luxury bag market. There was another announcement that luxury retailers are going to yet again be raising their already very high prices, much to many consumers dismay. The only good thing is that designer handbags are only becoming more and more popular and they are holding their value. So the pre-owned market is hotter than ever. One of my favorite sites is Fashionphile. They were just purchased by Neiman Marcus so it is probably the safest place to buy a second hand designer handbag on the web. They have an incredible authentication process. Fashionphile will also buy any of the designer accessories hanging around your closet. Its a great way to get rid of something old and get something new or to make a few extra dollars (and they can add up quickly). All you have to do is download the app, follow a few steps, upload a couple of photos and within a few days they send you a quote. If you agree, they send you a pre paid label. You ship your item and they send you a check or deposit the money for you within a week or so. The quotes are really fair, comparable if you consigned the item maybe a little higher but the best part, no waiting for your item to sell before you get your $$. Its so easy. I have partnered with Fashionphile this week to show you some of my favorite picks on their site. Boy was it hard to choose. All kidding aside, Fashionphile is a fabulous find. Whether you are in the market to buy or just make a few extra dollars!!! I urge you to check it out!!!

Are you getting ready for Halloween? This year we did not get to carve pumpkins. With my older 2 away at college and my youngest swamped with studying for tests, over the weekend, we decided to skip this year. I did see some really great carving kits at CVS, when I went to get treats to hand out at my husbands office party this week (the kids were the cutest and they did tell us that we had the best selection!!!! WOOOOO HOOOOO)….I decided to do a virtual carving this year…but maybe I might go back to CVS tomorrow AM and get those carving kits…we still have one day. I so love Halloween…it is my dear friend Alicia’s B-day..we are taking her to the NY Botanical Garden for lunch and to see their Spooky Pumpkin Garden. More on that tomorrow!!!! In the meanwhile:
