Book of the Week: The Perfectly Imperfect Home.

I've been meaning to post this book: The Perfectly Imperfect Home by Deborah Needleman for some time now... And now that I have a free copy on my hands (Thank you Gilt), I can't wait to share how great it is. Not only are the illustration so girly and cute but Deborah Needleman gives some amazing advice (every girl should know) on how to make your house your home. It's the perfect book for someone my age who is starting to invest in pieces that I want to grow in to and hopefully keep for a long time.  For example, she teaches you how to buy sheets according to thread count, material and season, she even points out the essential tools you will need to build an in home bar, and so many other great tips that are key in making a smart investment.  And if you don't have money to spend on new things, she shows you tricks on how to rework the pieces you already own to create a space that is more inviting and suitable for your lifestyle in a fresh new way.
Basically, Deborah knows what is up and I promise you won't get through one chapter without learning something new and maybe even the history behind it. Definitely get yourself a copy of this book if you are making a move and dishing out the big bucks on new furniture--- being knowledgeable about the product and decorating in general will make shopping for your new home a much more positive experience and its actually a lot of fun. Enjoy!

Only In NYC.



I was blown away a year ago when I first learned about Seamless Web, Fresh Direct and Soap.com--- But I think this one takes shopping to another level. Only in NYC-- can you literally do all your shopping online while you are at work--because what New Yorker really has time to shop anyways? I personally like to go to a department store and test products before I buy them but if I needed to replace one of my staple cosmetics I just might try this service out. It has to be better than going to the actual store and trying on the products that every tourist has dipped their fingers in after riding on the 6 train. Yuck! ----But I promise I will still continue to stop into Sephora and be that girl who asks to try on every shade of Nars blush... Because I don't know one girl who doesn't like make-up; and lets be honest, Sephora is basically like the candy land of beauty products...Wow, I love being a girl!
Speaking of Products.... Here are some of my favorite go to products:
