Buyer Beware | October 5, 2011

Buyer Beware

The truth is that two people with the same diagnosis don’t necessarily warrant the same treatment, and it’s the job of your mental health professional(s) to keep abreast of, and understand, the treatment options available and to work with you to find your ‘secret formula’ for optimal health: mental, emotional, physical and spiritual.

OK, “So where do I get one of these brilliant doctors?” you might ask. An excellent question, and the honest answer is ‘caveat emptor’, let the buyer beware. You have to do your homework on who is available in your area. However, I can tell you what kinds … Read More »

Whadda Stud! | August 15, 2011

Whadda Stud!

Move aside Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Matthew McConaughey and the Old Spice guy…there’s a new stud in town. He’s slick, shiny and hard – colorful, too – and maybe a little naughty. He’s…AN EARRING?? Haha, betcha didn’t see that coming. Or maybe, knowing me, you did.

A stud earring is very similar to a studly guy: handsome, versatile and easy to wear…um, you know what I mean! Before I get myself in hot water, here’s are some of my picks for Sexiest Stud Alive.

Boy do I heart Vivienne Westwood, and her silver studs are no exception. These little gems sport Westwood’s … Read More »

It’s Better in Leather | August 11, 2011

It’s Better in Leather

When I was 18, I put a bumpersticker on my car from a leather boy shop in Boston. Sporting discreet little handcuffs, it read: “It’s Better in Leather.” This really spiffed up my uber-dorky VW Dasher! My feeling of cool was cut short when, unsurprisingly, my parents removed it. I was hugely annoyed at their bourgeois mentality but soon realized that suburban New England was not ready for me…or my pretentious leather.

My love affair with leather began long before my bumper sticker and continues long after. Gone is the 1980s, and 1990s, and 2000s and with the decades, … Read More »

Gems for Good: Interview with Jeweler and Healer Andrea Rosenfeld | July 12, 2011

Gems for Good: Interview with Jeweler and Healer Andrea Rosenfeld

Who doesn’t love a pretty, sparkly gemstone? I sure do! But what if a gem can be so much more than a beautiful bauble? According to Andrea Rosenfeld, a New Jersey-based jewelry designer, Reiki practitioner and all-around cool multi-media artist, gemstones can do more than just dress up an outfit: they can heal.

Now, I’m as hippie-dippie lovey-dovey as I can be in our cynical postmodern age, but this one was new to me. So I had to talk personally with Andrea and find out how gemstones do double-duty as nurturing objects…and see some of them in action in … Read More »

Paint Your Home With Pantone’s 2011 Spring Colors!

by Christy Biberich

PANTONE’S 2011 Spring Colors are the perfect prescription for a much needed fresh start this season. Even the color-timid can capitalize on the natural serenity these colors bring by emphasizing neutrals like Silver Peony, Silver Cloud, and Peapod.  For the bold and adventurous there are an abundance of vibrant options like Honeysuckle, Coral Rose, and Beeswax.  No matter how trends change over time, the 2011 Spring Palette is based on colors found in nature and that is always timeless.

Honeysuckle is a major player this season in everything from home textiles to runway fashion – I’ve even spotted menswear … Read More »

Top 3 Weight Loss Tips for 2011!

by Annette Sym

As we start a New Year, many have set new goals for self improvement. One way that can help is looking for role models, mentors or people to inspire, encourage and who will give us the motivation and drive to succeed. I hope that I can be that person for anyone who is overweight and feeling like it is just too hard to make the changes needed to achieve their goals. I know from my own personal experience how it feels, and that’s why it is so important to me to … Read More »
