How COVID Might Transform Our World – A Historical Perspective – Dr. Alan Glazier

Greetings, I hope you are enjoying a lot of quality time at home with your family or alone with yourself. I believe that COVID-19 is an act of GOD to teach us another lesson and awaken us to surrender and let go of control and our attachments to the material world, to face our own inner darkness and fears, test our patience, our truths, our faith in Him, and our…

A Simple White Dress

The dress is from our latest Mykonos Collection made in Greece. The photo is one I shot at our retreat villa in Cabrera, Dominican Republic. Despite what you might see, hear and read in the media, fashion does not have to be complicated, and you certainly should not have to spend time over-analyzing your wardrobe. You can keep your personal style beautiful yet simple, clean, and relaxed, with a few basic staples…

For the Love of a Red Dress

Nothing better than being in a red dress surrounded by all things masculine! With the hot summer coming soon, I am looking forward to the warm sexy days where I can just toss on a beautiful dress and my hand-made Grecian sandals, and out the door I go.  I have always loved the ease and feminine appeal of dresses, and red is one of my favorite hues.  There's something about a woman…

Traveling in Style

Hiking in the town of Cabrera, DR. The cutie in the back wants my hat! (Photo: Colleen Wolak) Greetings, it has been awhile, and I am back from a much needed Goddess sabbatical. If you live where I live - or have traveled to many major cities - I will bet that you have come across people who you instantly know are tourists, especially the North Americans (*smiles*).  I really never understood the concept…

Shopping, Walking…Eating in Sorrento

Whites and neutrals in natural fibers are musts! Did you know Sorrento, Italy has ruins dating back to 600 BC? You know how much I love the Eternal City of Rome, so on my recent buying trip to Italy, I made sure to head south by train to the charming and picturesque seaside town of Sorrento.  And I was definitely not disappointed!

11 Ways To De-Stress Your Summer

Meditating under the sun first thing in the morning energizes me. What comes to mind for you when you think of summertime? An exotic Mediterranean holiday or a backyard picnic with friends, perhaps? Or long weekends at the beach and late-night dining outside to enjoy the summer breeze? While all these things sound oh so wonderful, I believe that too many of us still squeeze so much into our sunshine-filled, warm weather days that…

Back In Rome

I love shopping for vintage books and magazines! Last April, I was going through a phase in my life where there was much cleansing and healing needed. So my visit to the Vatican and Rome was overall very therapeutic.  This year, I am happier and in a more grounded place since I have cleared a lot of emotional baggage and have let go of the things that were in the way of my…

How Much I Love Old Town Alexandria

I love praying and sitting in silence at Saint Mary's in the afternoons. There are so many reasons why I love living in the City of Alexandria and having a business right in Old Town. But here are some visual reasons why I just love being here.  From the architecture to the food choices and being near the waterfront, I could wander around all day and still discover something new and…

New York and the Sunlight

Recently I shared with you some of my favorite photos of New York City at night.  Did you like the way I captured the city after dark? I hope so :) In this post, I thought you would enjoy what I captured of New York City during daylight. It's vibrant and exciting, even when I am sitting in an Uber during rush hour. (more…)
