My Mom

Growing up, my family always joked that my chic mom (far left - pictured here with my dad and aunt) was a displaced Parisienne. Through her passion for design, art, music, and style, she taught us to appreciate the finer things in life and for that, I will be forever in her debt...and likely eternally in debt :)

Happy Mother's Day to all the chic moms out there.  Hope your weekend is full of beautiful things.

Mamma Mia

With Mom's Day less than a week away I have yet to actually get anything for my wonderful mom.  Sure, I've thought about it, (moms always taught us it's the thought that counts...) but doesn't a thoughtful present count just a little more?  Whether you're on a strict budget or you've got money to spare, these luxurious last-minute finds will make her feel incredibly loved this Mom's Day, from fantastic new under-$15 tunes to that Canon Rebel she's always wanted.  After all, she changed your diapers;  Consider this karmic payback.  And to all you moms out there, Happy Mother's Day this Sunday!  I never expected this but now that I'm a mom, I'm genuinely most excited about the card.
