How cool are these wooden sunglasses? Its recently come to my attention that I have a very limited selection of eye-wear. As someone who tends to stick to the same comfortable lane of black and tortuous, I've never been one to give my sunglasses that much thought. In preparation for summer, I decided to branch out from my norm and add a few new pairs to my collection. These unique wooden shades are begging for a beach day and I love how effortlessly chic this monogrammed pair is.  

Must Watch


One of my favorite things to do whenever I'm feeling stressed or a little down, is to watch inspirational videos. I could listen to Oprah talk for hours. And when Super Soul Sunday just isn't enough, I always turn to Youtube to find a little Oprah pick-me-up. This amazing interview held at the Stanford Graduate School of Business is Oprah at her finest. From her career, to her beliefs, to the importance of trusting your instincts, Oprah continues to prove why she's one of the most empowering women in the world. If you have an hour to kill, this video is a must-watch.

Must Cook

I've been stuck in a major lunch rut lately. Searching for vegetarian lunch options that actually excite me and can easily make the trek from home to work isn't always easy. I can't wait to whip up this mango, avocado and arugula salad (recipe here) and this ultra pretty spiraled greek cucumber salad (recipe here).

Must Try

I've never been much of a work-out buff. I seem to stick well to the whole super productive for a week and then nothing for the following six weeks pattern. I recently tried this new 30-minute work-out and couldn't believe how sore I was in the days following. It's definitely a must-try. Here's hoping I can kick the seven day slump.
