After a week of cell biology and epidemiology, I’m ready for a little fashion fun! That fun came in the form of Vanity Fair’s annual International Best Dressed List. There’s nothing like a little eye candy diversion (Silver Lining). Here are my faves from the list: H.R.H. The Duchess of Cambridge Lizzie Tish Erika Bearman… Continue reading Vanity Fair International Best Dressed

Silver Lined Discovery: Chance PJ's
One Silver Lining of FBC (f-bomb breast cancer for new readers) is that I became a pajama connoisseur. There is absolutely nothing like a great pair of jammies when you feel rotten. I happen to appreciate, admire and quite frankly, relish in a wonderfully made pair of pajama’s! So, you can imagine my delight when I… Continue reading Silver Lined Discovery: Chance PJ's
Happy 4th of July…Through the Decades
In case you haven’t noticed, I love-love-love the 4th of July! It’s an easy, relaxed, pressure-free (i.e., NO GIFTS!) holiday. The decor is festive but not frivolous (though don’t get me wrong, I do love my frivolity!). The food is fresh and delectable. Triple Silver Lining. I also happen to think that the 4th of… Continue reading Happy 4th of July…Through the Decades
Fashion Fun!
Recently, I came across the super fun illustrated guide to fashion’s biggest icons on Refinery 29. It was a little Silver Lining in a very busy and slightly challenging day. I love when delightful things pop up and provide a smile (Silver Lining). What is this, you ask? For fun, Refinery 29 enlisted the help of illustrator… Continue reading Fashion Fun!
Jason Wu Love
Even before Michelle Obama danced onto the world stage as the First Lady in a Jason Wu gown, I was smitten with him. I’ve written about him before and continue to be nuts about him. So, you can imagine my excitement when I saw this Vogue feature highlighting his studio in New York. I’m absolutely… Continue reading Jason Wu Love

Emma in Vogue
I’m super excited to see Emma Stone on the cover of the July issue of Vogue. How fun! Who on earth didn’t fall in love with her in The Help? I mean, really. She was so adorable as a southern society girl who returns from college determined to become a writer, but turns her small Mississippi… Continue reading Emma in Vogue
Sunday Sweetness #9: Shoes
What is it about shoes? I just love ’em. I do. Perhaps it is Marilyn Monroe who said it best, Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world. I happen to think that shoes are the most important part of an outfit. No matter how ho-hum your outfit is, the right… Continue reading Sunday Sweetness #9: Shoes
Welcome Slim Paley
Oh my goodness, am I ever excited about today’s post! Welcoming Slim Paley as a guest writer is a HUGE Silver Lining! I’m sure that you know all about her and her blog (called Slim Paley). She writes (brilliantly!) about “The Stuff of Life.” She is a mom, wife, daughter, sister, friend and ‘Work in Progress’… Continue reading Welcome Slim Paley
Silver Lined Discoveries: Urbanears Plattan Denim headphones
After having spent, ohhhhh about 30+ hours on planes (that’s just ON planes…not counting the time in airports) in the last couple of weeks, I found myself longing for earphones to tune out the white noise…and there was A LOT of white (& red & blue & purple) noise! Go figure that I found these… Continue reading Silver Lined Discoveries: Urbanears Plattan Denim headphones
