Guest Post By: Sophie Smith
Workout clothes are not what they used to be! These days you tend to make fashion statement while working out, the clothes are more stylish, with interesting cuts and fabrics. Still, the same pieces we invest a lot of money in, sometimes wear out fast and become unsightly. What do we do then? Typically we blame the manufacturers, but in most cases, the fault is our own.

Da Claudio Ristorante NYC

Da claudioThe dining options in NYC are endless, but when a restaurant has a delicious menu, rotating specials and is reasonably priced...I'm there (and I usually keep coming back)! A hidden gem in the midst of the Financial District, Da Claudio offers traditional northern Italian cuisine with a modern contemporary flair. The menu offerings include seasonal specialties, homemade pasta, and handcrafted cocktails, so it is no wonder this restaurant became an instant favorite of mine. I wanted to keep this place all to myself, but with food this good, it was only right for me to share Da Claudio with all of you.

Mono Mauve Cover

Monochromatic Mauve

Mono Mauve and Greenwich Jewelers The weather in New York is pretty chilly, so getting dressed is all about boots, outerwear and sweaters. For a winter escape I will be traveling to Florida for my Christmas vacation for some sunshine and relaxation. Packing is always a pain especially when you're traveling to a different climate. Even though it's not technically winter in Palm Beach, I don't want to pack strictly summer clothes for my trip. This monochromatic look has the feel of fall, but it's perfect for warm weather travels. My coated plum denim was featured in a previous post last winter, but they are still very much on trend. I paired these jeans with a light pink lace top and my favorite Stuart Weitzman's pumps. All of my mauve accented jewelry can be found at Greenwich Jewelers.

Hot chocolate, huge cups of warm tea and cinnamon apple pie all add to the magic of the fall. However, it’s all about staying both fashionable and warm in the midst of December that is really important. Another lovely thing about this season is the fact that you can dress up to be warm and stylish at the same time.

Walnut Basil Pesto Pasta with Modern Table Meals

Modern TableFinding healthy ways to make Italian food can be challenging. With all the carbs, cheese and heavy meat sauces you may find yourself feeling guilty after a meal. I recently swapped out my regular pasta and tried Modern Table Meals. This brand of healthy pastas are a delicious alternative to the traditional Italian variety. Made with bean and lentils, these pastas have 14g of protein and 5g of fiber without compromising any flavor. The pastas are also gluten, dairy, and soy free. They’re non-GMO Project verified and made without artificial colors or preservatives. Using 2 of their varieties, I made a yummy Turkey Sausage Marinara Penne and a Walnut Basil & Parsley Rotini. See Recipe for these tasty sauces below!

Cocktail Fancy

12063008_1526815914299499_1346079793_n I love getting all dressed up, especially when it's for a good cause. Last week my husband and I attended the American Australian Association's Benefit Dinner, a fundraiser for the Association's Education fund. This evening of cocktails, dinner and hobnobbing was held at the glorious ballroom of Cipriani's Wall St. For the event I pulled out one of my favorite cocktail dresses, a Badgley Mischka pale pink number with gorgeous silver beading at the bust line. Originally I wore this dress to the rehearsal dinner for my wedding. Since I hate wearing something only once, I was thrilled that this dress fit the occasion perfectly! With the holidays right around the corner, a great cocktail dress is always key. Be sure not to miss my holiday dress guide coming soon...
