Your winter sweaters should not be sharing space with your summer shorts, and so on. But this post is not about closet cleanups, it's about the pieces that have permanent residence in your closet, like Britney in Vegas.

With the holiday season in full-swing (ie: just a few shopping days left!), it's time to get serious about finding that special something for each special someone on your list. Here are some of my favorite gifts to give (and receive) this year. Ready...Set...Shop Local!

With so many shades of gray available, it's no wonder I have been looking to this color as my go to fall manicure.

Chances are most of you are familiar with a crimper, but what about a waver? Unlike the stiff, accordion like crimps that a crimper iron produces, a waver iron produces soft, fluid, mermaid like waves. Best of all, it takes little to no time to style.

One of the ways I love to dress for fall, especially in the early days is to wear prints. A dark print or heavier fabric are easy to mix into your fall wardrobe while you work with your basics if your chunky sweaters haven't made it back into your closets yet.

As we slide out of summer and fall into our September schedules I wanted to share some of my favorite fitness practices and the gear to match.

Our CK September Workshop “Back to Basics: Building The Right Foundation’ at Bloom in Cohasset on September 25th from 11:00am to 1:00pm focuses on the ‘basic foundation’ you need to reach optimum health & nutrition as we ‘reset’ from summer-vacation-mode and the ‘basic foundation’ on which to build your wardrobe from the inside out.

Here are my favorite late-summer manicures to keep you well polished - and keep that "summer vibe" always at your fingertips.

Every summer meal finds me reaching for fresh fruit: in drinks, breakfast bowls, salads & dinner...and this year I'm reaching for fruit to add to my closet.

My favorite thing about a good swimsuit is how easily it can take you from beach to bar (or pool to poolside) with just a few easy additions.
