5 on Friday: Crutch Free Edition

October 25, 2013 by 2 Comments

It’s time for another edition of Five on Friday with A Liz Adventures, The Good Life Blog, Hello Happiness and Carolina Charm.

THE GOOD LIFE BLOG1. Guns + Butter

I recently wrote about my experience with Guns + Butter during Detroit Restaurant Week – you can read more about it here. Well guess what? I got an email around 10:30 p.m. on Tuesday night offering more seatings for Guns + Butter. They are hosting dinners on October 25, 26, 30 and November 1 and 2. Chef Craig Lieckfelt is opening up his personal test kitchen for these special seatings. If you are interested in getting on the waiting list, you can email reservations@gbdetroit.com.

I am treating my husband to one of these special dinners as a thank you for taking care of me with my broken foot for the past month.

GB122. CastCoverZ

I got good news at my doctor’s appointment on Wednesday. My foot is healing nicely and I don’t have to use crutches anymore!! I do have to continue wearing my walking boot for another two weeks, but I can put weight on it and start walking around normally. Thank goodness! The timing is funny because I was just about to decorate my crutches with colored tape. I did discover CastCoverZ and last week my special crutch pads arrived. These were great because the pads were starting to wear down on my crutches and hurt my hands. I wish I would have discovered this site before, because you can order colored crutches and all sorts of accessories.

I got the black trellis pads (I didn’t get the bag just the pads) and I love them. They are so easy to put on and take off which is great if you want to wash them. I decided to go with something a little more professional since I had to take them to work and to teach.

3. Kate Spade Toast Flats

I saw these the other day and thought they would be perfect for holiday parties if I can’t get back in heels yet.

canvas4. Clinique Eye for Colour

Lord & Taylor is hosting a special Clinique event: Eye for Colour to learn about their new eyeshadows. You can make an appointment at your nearest Lord & Taylor store through November 3rd.

Just for attending you get a 10-day supply of Clinique’s Happy Perfume Spray mini and your choice of Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle Correcting Eye Cream mini or All About Eyes mini. Also, don’t forget that the Clinique bonus at Macy’s is still running through October 27th.

Forget the fox! I am all about pigs over here! I love, love, love piggies and I decided I had to have this sweater when I stumbled across it earlier this week on Bluefly. What’s not to love? It’s cashmere and adorable!

The Crazy Ones “Breakfast Burrito Club” Recap

October 24, 2013 by Leave a Comment

This week on The Crazy Ones, we learned about the creative process. I loved this episode for calling out how difficult it is to come up with a great idea. Now, their creative process is a little different than mine, but I loved Sydney’s (Sarah Michelle Gellar) big creative binder. She really is the yin to Simon’s (Robin Williams) yang.

This was especially funny as she was supposed to take a vacation to Hawaii, which normal people would be excited about, but she tried every excuse in the book to avoid going. A workaholic by nature, she couldn’t stand to unplug and relax.

Sydney wears a Rebecca Taylor Prisma Flower Blouse ($159) and Peggy Li Black Diamond Threader Earrings ($89). I found this Kensie Peplum Blouse ($49.99) that gives you a similar look for less:

The Crazy Ones Rebecca Taylor Prisma Flower Blouse

peggy li

The night doesn’t exactly go as planned, but after a number of creative endeavors and an awkward kiss they eventually get to the big idea. Sydney wears a Gold Hawk Silk Tank ($160.65) and the Theory Gabe Blazer ($395). I found a similar Farr West lace trim tank ($45) and a Zara pinstripe blazer ($89.90):

gold hawk

The Good Wife “A Precious Commodity” Recap

October 21, 2013 by Leave a Comment

I have to hand it to Diane (Christine Baranski), she owned up right away to Will (Josh Charles) that she burned him in the Law Review interview. That couldn’t have been easy and I don’t think a lot of people would face it head on. This is why I like Diane’s character so much. She doesn’t seem afraid of very much. The first family of Illinois got their inaugural photos taken. Alicia (Julianna Marguiles) wears the sold-out Gammner dress from The Row. For a similar look try this Nicole Miller Sheath Dress ($275) or this Ponte Sheath Dress ($88):

dress ID Source: WornOnTV

Alicia gets called away on an interesting case about a surrogate. In the meantime Will starts to make a case to push Diane out of the firm. Alicia wears a purple collarless blazer for her meeting with the surrogate and the parents. I found a similar blazer at DressBarn for $79.50: purple blazer Peter (Chris Noth) and Eli (Alan Cumming) bring back Marilyn (Melissa George) to give her the Ethics Committee job back, but she is no pushover and demands unfettered access to Peter…this should be interesting. She wears a black peplum dress. I found a Calvin Klein peplum dress for $118: peplum

David Lee (Zach Grenier) decides to join Alicia in the surrogate case, as he has a larger prize in mind. I love that Alicia catches on to his plan right away. She is one smart cookie. She is always the voice of reason, especially in the Diane situation as she reminds everyone that Diane will be a Supreme Court justice and they might want to leave things on good terms. Alicia wears a patterned skirt suit by Escada. I found a purple and black patterned skirt suit from Le Suit ($59.99) that has a similar sense of whimsy:

escada

The firm gives Diane an exit package, but she declines saying that they can do better. They want to keep her clients in good standing. Diane is wearing a white textured jacket from Armani and a vintage firefly brooch. I found an MNG white tweed jacket ($55) and a vintage brooch on eBay ($24.99):

armani

Then Will asks Alicia to replace Diane as managing partner! WOW, I didn’t see that one coming – he is going to be furious when she leaves with Cary (Matt Czuchry). This really puts her in a difficult position.

Back in court, Alicia is arguing to let her client keep the baby she was carrying. It is an interesting argument. She wears a Giorgio Armani Ribbed Front Jacket ($2795). I found this Star Jones blazer that has a similar seam detail ($65):

ribbed blazer

Marilyn is back on the Ethics Committee giving Eli a hard time already .She looks great doing it in a white v-neck blouse with pleats. I found an INC pleated blouse at Macy’s ($72.50). When she talks to Peter you can already see that they have chemistry…I think she will spell trouble for him. No wonder he is in such a hurry to renew his vows with Alicia.

pleated blouse

Cary confronts Alicia about getting asked to be managing partner, he makes a good point, that she will always be under Will if she stays. I think that if she never had the affair with Will it would be different, but I don’t think they can work that closely and keep it clean. Then Robyn (Jess Weixler) lets it slip that Alicia is leaving the firm, which Kalinda (Archie Panjabi) didn’t know.

Alicia sits through Will’s discussion with Diane, where she rejects the exit package again. Alicia realizes that if she becomes managing partner, she could one day be having this same discussion with Will. I think she can’t believe how ugly it’s become. She immediately goes to Cary and tells him that they need to leave this week. She wears a Rena Lange striped blazer. You can try this Anne Klein linen blazer ($109) for a similar look:

rena lange

Diane is a formidable opponent in a Moschino asymmetric ruffled jacket ($2, 438.79). I found a black INC military jacket for $119.50:

Scandal “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” Recap

October 19, 2013 by Leave a Comment

This week’s episode starts with a flashback from five years ago. We see Olivia (Kerry Washington) getting off the subway and running into Huck (Guillermo Diaz) seemingly a weekly tradition between the two of them. She wears a double breasted coat from Stella McCartney ($1865). I found an Ellen Tracy Tweed Button Front Coat on sale for $140 that is similar:

stella coat

We discover that Olivia has a deal with her father (Joe Morton) to have dinner once a week in return for him paying her law school tuition. Olivia wears a charcoal sweater ($298) and cardigan ($398) from Brooks Brothers.  I found a similar cardigan set from Ann Taylor in battleship grey, the cardigan ($189) and the shell ($119) are both 100% cashmere:

sweater set

After dinner, she gets mugged in the subway and Huck comes to her rescue and tells her to run. We flash to the present day and the president’s secret service agent slips Olivia a secret phone during her run to talk to the president. She wears a Lulu Lemon Forme Jacket in Twin Stripe ($108) and the Lulu Lemon Run: Inspire Crop II *Block-It Pocket ($92):

lululemon

Olivia tells the president that she is going to represent Jeannine (Samantha Sloyen) and come after the White House with everything she has. During the press conference Olivia wears the MaxMara Eliana Coat ($4,173). I still like the Michael Kors belted wrap coat ($158.40) as a look for less for this coat. I might be partial because I own this one myself.

wrap coatFlashing back again, we see Olivia confronting Huck at the subway to try to find out more about him. He tells her about B613 and that he was a trained assassin. It is really interesting watching her interact with her father and re-telling the mugging story to him. I think one of the more humorous parts is her telling him that she never had a taste for wine and him expanding her palette.  She wars another fun coat, a sold-out Burberry Prorsum coat. JCrew has a similar coat for $365 and Kenneth Cole has one on sale for $179.99:

burberry123

Back in the present day, Olivia has a choice to make. Either she lets Jeannine Lock burn or B613 will never let Jake Ballard (Scott Foley) go. We also find out that Huck doesn’t know who Olivia’s father is when he meets him in the office. Olivia wears an Escada suit, Armani draped blouse ($306.20) and the Ippolita Rosé Rock Candy Mini Lollipop and Ball Necklace ($895). I found a BCX Blazer ($39.98) and Trousers ($34.98), a Kasper Cowl Neck Top ($33.99) and a similar rose gold necklace from Sears ($19.98):

suit

Flashback to Olivia’s first meeting with David Rosen (Joshua Malina). He tells her that Huck has never been arrested and Olivia starts to figure out what’s really going on when she sees her father’s pen with the name Acme Limited on it. She confronts her father and then she gets smart and decides to accept Edison’s (Norm Lewis) proposal because his new Senate position gives her some leverage to get Huck back. Olivia wears a sold out Max Mara Orleans coat. I found an asymmetrical Sam Edelman coat for $178 that is similar:

maxmaraIn the present, Olivia and team are still trying to clear Jeannine’s name. This is all for nothing once Mellie (Bellamy Young) gets to her and convinces her to admit to the affair for $2 million. Olivia gets a choice, until President Grant (Tony Goldwyn) makes it for her by admitting the affair and getting Jake Ballard released. Olivia wears an Alexander McQueen Military Jacket ($1778.61). I found a similar BCBG Military Jacket ($169.99):

military

In the final flashback we realize that Eli Pope giving Huck back had a price. He orchestrated an accident that put Edison in the hospital and told Olivia she had to break up with him.

At the end of the episode Huck figures out who Eli Pope really is and the deal Olivia secured for him and Jake Ballard shows up at Olivia’s door…as long as she attends Sunday night dinners. Olivia wears a Donna Karan Collection Drape Front Cashmere Cozy ($1,000) and Cashmere Tank ($550). I found a similar Karen Kane Cardigan for $69.30:

Phillip Lim for Target

October 14, 2013 by 2 Comments

I’m a little late on this, as the Phillip Lim for Target Collection came out on September 15th, but as I’ve been putting together my fall wardrobe I’ve seen some great pieces from this collection. I love these limited edition collections from Target. I loved the Prabal Gurung, Jason Wu and Missoni collections and can’t wait to see what they do next.

target

You can still buy many of the pieces at Target, but I have been eyeing a few things on eBay. I thought I would detail my favorite pieces from this collection.

1. The Trench Coat ($79.99)

A good trench is essential and that’s what this piece is. I love the light blue accents.

trench

 2. Sparkle Peplum Tank ($39.99)

I love the sleek lines of this tank and think it would look great with a number of different outfits. I am guessing that you should order a size up as the front has a zipper close.

14617960_201308072002

 3. Tote Bag in Black and Purpleberry

I can’t decide if I should get the black or purpleberry tote maybe both. This bag is awesome! So awesome that you can only get it on eBay now.

totes

4. Animal Print Scarf

I saw someone else tie this scarf to their tote and thought it was a great idea. So when I get the totes, I have to get the scarf to go with them.

3. Badgley Mischka Floral Cloche Hat ($42)

I found this hat while looking for something else last night and thought it was darling. I need to buy it and wear it all winter, the color just pops!

cloche

4. Stella and Dot Bahari Necklace

This is the perfect necklace to wear on Michigan game days. Funny story – I saw one of our local TV anchors wearing it after last week’s game and I liked it so much I decided to tweet her and ask her where she got it. I was thrilled when she said it was Stella and Dot. Unfortunately, this necklace is sold out on the Stella and Dot website, but I have tracked down a number of them on eBay.

5. Side Way Cross Necklace ($25)

I was so excited when I got my Ily Couture Side Way Cross Necklace on sale. I wore it a number of times…and then I lost it. I can’t seem to find it anywhere, so I am thinking about just buying another one (which is probably the fastest way to find the old one). It annoys me to have to buy something twice, but I really want to wear it again.

I Broke My Foot and Have No Flats

October 5, 2013 by 5 Comments

Last weekend I broke my foot on our trip to Petoskey. I tripped in my wedges and rolled onto my foot. At first we were hoping it was just a bad sprain, but a trip to the doctor confirmed the break. I was lucky enough to get a soft cast which means that I can take it off at night and to shower.

I won’t lie to you and tell you that being on crutches easy, because it’s not. It is probably one of the most challenging things I have ever done. I am a pretty independent person, so being reliant on others to get around has been difficult. My husband has been amazing and I am so thankful to have him taking care of me. Everyone from coworkers to complete strangers have stopped to help me open doors, carry my bag and even pull up my car. I have been overwhelmed by the kindness I have received from others this week. That has definitely helped to keep my spirits up.

Cild_Crutches

On to the fun part of today’s blog – now that I am on crutches for 4-6 weeks, I’ve realized that I have no flats and I can’t wear any of my heels. I am not a flats person, but breaking my foot has given me a reason to shop for some cute flats that I can wear on my right foot during the day. Here are the top picks on my shopping list:

Michael Kors Fulton Moc ($99)

I recently traveled to Dallas for work, and one of my coworkers were sporting these adorable flats. I loved the metallic look and think they would work with a number of outfits.

2407796-p-MULTIVIEWTOMS Brown Gisele Flats ($84)

If you haven’t heard of TOMS before, it is a great concept. Buy a pair of shoes and another pair of shoes gets donated to someone in need. Not to mention that the TOMS ballet flats are darling. Since I am a 10, I am still waiting for a pair in my size to come up on eBay, but I hope to get these soon.

toms gisele

TOMS Purple Reptile Women’s Black Sequins Classics ($68)

TOMS also has a classic style and I have wanted to get a pair for a while now. I wanted to get something different and these purple reptile sequin TOMS are perfect for me. They would definitely give me something to look forward to over the next 4-6 weeks.

reptile toms

Coach Dalia Flat ($138)

I’ve been stalking a few different Coach flats on eBay, but I saw these available in my size on the website. Supercute and they look really comfortable.

coachSkechers GOWalk Recovery Slip On ($59)

These shoes are supposed to be super comfortable and after placing all your weight on one foot and crutches all day you need something comfy. Plus, who doesn’t love hot pink?

SKE01248_125531

Let me know if you have any cute and comfortable flat picks. If you have any tips for adjusting to life with crutches, please share them with me. So far I have a rolling office chair at home that I have been using to get around.

Fall Favorites

September 22, 2013 by 6 Comments

I have to admit that Spring and Summer are my favorite seasons. I do like fall, but more for the fun activities we get to do like tailgating and football games. Because of this I wanted to wait until the first day of fall to give you my favorites so I could enjoy every last day of summer.

Caramel Apple Spice

Since I don’t drink coffee, I can’t jump on the pumpkin drinks at Starbucks, but I can enjoy my delicious Caramel Apple Spice. It tastes like a hot apple juice drink with cinnamon, caramel, and whipped cream. What could be better? It is great on a cool day to warm you right up. I can’t wait to get my first one of the season.

Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice

Starbucks Caramel Apple Spice

Fioni Booties

I first talked about these booties on my September Pinspired post here. I haven’t been a huge fan of booties, mostly because I have thicker legs and I think they are more flattering on people with long, thin legs. When I saw these booties, I thought they were perfect – more like heels with a little bit of bootie. The best part is that they are from Payless, so they’re very affordable. Since they are sold out, you can buy them on eBay here. I can’t wait to wear them with tights!

Fioni Booties

Fioni Booties

SPANX High-Waisted Tights ($38)

In order to keep you spring and summer dresses going through fall, you’re going to need a good pair of tights. Enter SPANX. I cannot stress how much I love these tights. I know it seems weird that they go all the way up to your bra, but trust me, you will love them. Because they go up so high, you don’t have to worry about  the muffin top problem that you would get with normal control top tights or pantyhose. This is the one item that I will definitely stock up on. I can’t wait to try different colors and maybe patterns this year.

SPANX High-Waisted Tights

SPANX High-Waisted Tights

Grace & Lace Legwarmers ($34)

I have been watching these all summer and I can’t wait to buy them for fall. I imagine I will mostly wear them for lounging around the house, but I like to think that I might experiment and wear them over jeans and leggings. My feet and legs are always cold, so I think these will be perfect and cute for downtime with the hubby.

Miss Molly Legwarmers

Miss Molly Legwarmers

Michael Kors ‘Everest’ Baguette Crystal Bezel Bracelet Watch ($325)

I’m in love. Now don’t get me wrong, I still love my white ceramic Michael Kors watch from the summer favorites list, but lately I’ve been adding some gold into my wardrobe and I need a watch that matches. I also think that I need to put the white watch away and bring it out for some winter white in December and January. When I saw this gold Michael Kors watch I thought I died and went to heaven. It is just so beautiful, I have to have it!

Michael Kors 'Everest' Baguette Crystal Bezel Bracelet Watch

CND Vinylux/Shellac Masquerade

Now that summer is over, I am ready for a new fall color. I think that CND Shellac/Vinylux in Masquerade will do the trick. It is not red, but more of a dark red/purple that is perfect for fall. If you haven’t heard of Vinylux yet, check out my post here.

CND Masquerade

CND Masquerade

Flower Headband ($36.99)

I have a few outdoor events to go to this fall, an outdoor beer festival, not to mention lots of tailgating. I need to stay warm, but I don’t want hat hair. Enter the adorable flower headband. It keeps your ears warm without killing your hair for the evening. I particularly like this one from Lucy’s Knitting Shop because of the cute little button.

headband

Infinity Scarves

I bought two infinity scarves last year in black and camel and I wore them everyday. They solve the problem of having a bulky scarf under your fitted coat. They are great to wear with a t-shirt or with a coat or jacket. The place I got mine from doesn’t have them anymore, so I found a great Etsy shop, Beckers Creations, where you can buy them in any color.

infinity scarf

Sam Adams Cherry Wheat Beer

This beer is perfect for fall, it is crisp and fruity, but not dark. It has a cherry/honey taste and is great by itself or with dinner. Each bottle is 165 calories so I like to have one every once in a while.

ChapStick Velvet Cupcake Lip Balm

I live in Michigan, which means that the cold weather is approaching. Combine that with lots of outdoor events and you get chapped lips. It pays to always have chapstick on hand and what could be better than velvet cupcake flavor?

These are all of my favorite fall things. I would love to hear what your favorite fall things are, please share them in the comment section below. If you want to read about my summer favorites, click here.

Mistresses “Payback” Recap

September 20, 2013 by 1 Comment

Savi (Alyssa Milano) gathers the girls to come clean about everything. I can’t help feeling that she did all of this to make herself feel better. What would it have hurt to wait for the paternity results – she may not have needed to say anything at all. She hasn’t come clean with her sister Joss (Jess Macallen) and Joss will no doubt be hurt that she was the last to know. April (Rachelle Aytes) divulges that she slept with Richard (Cameron Bender) in the store.

Joss wears a sold out Cynthia Steffe Red Alana Vneck Colorblock Sheath Dress. Cynthia Steffe has a similar dress here for $136.80 and New Direction has a $59.99 option here.

colorblock dress

ID Source: OnScreenStyle

Karen (Yunjin Kim) stays to reminisce with Savi about their history together. She gives Savi good advice to give Harry time and let him come to her. Karen wears a black skirt and a green Theory blouse (sold out). I found a similar Halogen Tie-Neck Blouse ($44):

theory top

 ID Source: Possessionista 

Savi

Savi doesn’t take her advice (shocker) and goes to the restaurant to see Harry and try to find out when he’s coming home. It didn’t go very well and she didn’t get much of a response from Harry. She should have just left it alone – this isn’t something she can fix overnight. She goes into work and tells Dom (Jason George) that she is pregnant (DUMB!) and that the baby is Harry’s.

Savi again goes to visit Harry – she is really pushing things and it is sort of annoying. She just dumped a lot of stuff on Harry and she doesn’t even give him a day to digest the information. She tells him that she will quit her job for him and accuses him of sleeping with his hostess…wow, she just can’t help herself.

Dom confronts her about interviewing at another firm and tells her she is crazy to throw away everything she has worked for. Savi wears a Michael Kors Boat Neck Dress (sold out). I found a Tahari dress for $40.80 that is similar.

orange dress

Karen

When Karen arrives at the office, she finds out that they have been robbed. Nothing is taken until she discovers that her computer files have been downloaded. She goes to have lunch with Savi who tells her that Harry is sleeping with his hostess. Karen tells her that she is acting crazy and needs to back off (good advice). They also discover that Mrs. Gray has been out of the country and is not interested in her insurance money in the least.

Karen discovers that Sam broke into her office and left her a picture that says “Missing You. Sam” – creepy.

April

April meets with Miranda (Kate Beahan) to give her a payout. She gives a small amount and tells Miranda it will be the first of many payments. Miranda doesn’t seem to thrilled with that idea. Richard has to cancel their date because they couldn’t get a babysitter. He picks her up the next afternoon to take her to a Dodger’s game, but before they can leave Miranda shows up and ruins the date. April ultimately decides to sell part of her store to get the money for Miranda.

Joss

Joss is really pushing it with her new boss at work. I can’t believe she talks to him like that! Joss stops by Savi’s house to borrow some jewelry and discovers a What to Expect When You’re Expecting Book and automatically assumes that Savi is pregnant. Joss runs into April at a boutique and tells her that she knows Savi is pregnant. April immediately calls Savi and tells her to come clean with Joss soon.

Olivier gives Joss a specific assignment to sell an unsellable house. She tries her usual routine of charming the customer. She loses the listing and Olivier isn’t happy with her results. He tells her she is the person that thinks her way is the only way…he’s not wrong. She seems really immature in this episode.

Savi finally confesses everything to Joss and Joss blows up at her for keeping a huge secret. They have other sister issues that come into play and Savi ends up judging her for her lifestyle.

What do you think about Savi’s decisions in this episode? Will Harry forgive her?

5 on Friday: Eat, Blog, Love

September 20, 2013 by Leave a Comment

It’s time for another edition of Five on Friday with A Liz Adventures, The Good Life Blog, Hello Happiness and Carolina Charm.

THE GOOD LIFE BLOG

I have a random group of things to talk about this week, but all things I am loving at the moment.

1. Small Moments Giveaway

I am running the Small Moments Giveaway (read more here) and you have until September 30th to enter. It is easy and free to enter here (a Rafflecopter giveaway). The giveaway includes an 8×10 “Love is” letterpress print and 12 of the Sweet Like Candy cards.:

detroit_duchess_giveaway

2. Eat Blog Love Notepad ($23)

I first saw this on the Keep Calm and Carry On blog and LOVED it! I am currently writing all my ideas on my notes app on my phone and I think this would be super cute.

blognotebook1_1024x1024

3. Marlyn Schiff Elephant Cuff ($34)

I just stumbled upon this surfing the net and think it is adorable. I must have it!

10429_1024x1024

4. Booksfree

I feel like I came up with this idea long before I ever found this site and one day I looked and it was there! Booksfree is sort of like Netflix for books. You pay a monthly subscription fee for one to two books to come to your house at a time. You can keep them as long as you want, so no overdue library fines and no more paying for books that you don’t end up liking. I currently have Committed: A Love Story by Elizabeth Gilbert, the sequel to Eat, Pray, Love and Nights in Rodanthe by Nicholas Sparks. I have a work trip coming up and can’t wait to start reading these on the plane. If you love to read like I do, I highly recommend Booksfree.

BooksFree logo final

5. Prabal Gurung Nolita Heels

I finally got my Prabal Gurung for Target Nolita heels. I wore them yesterday and got so many compliments. They are going to be perfect for fall! I had been eyeing them for a long time and finally got them on eBay. As you know most of the Target collaborations sell out the first day, but people put them up on eBay right away. Click here to search for your size on eBay. I got the matching clutch too!
