BANANA SPLIT

April 30 2013

Breakfast is my favorite part of the weekend and I tend to go all out. My weekday morning ritual though involves just a bowl of cereal or a cereal bar if I’m running late. I have been looking for alternatives that doesn’t involve whipping out a pan or putting anything in a microwave and this [...]

SUIT YOURSELF

April 27 2013

A power suit is my equivalent to a little black dress. There’s something about a great fitting suit that oozes confidence and I love the sense of androgyny it brings to a women-that to me is sexy (think YSL).

My breakfast experience has been excellent and was intrigued by their lunch menu so I decided to go during the week to sample the food from Michelin star chef [...]

I’m very sensitive to the sun, I burn easily and I hate seawater. I do love the idea of relaxing (or napping) with the sound of the [...]
