Pamela Pekerman is a style expert, host, TV personality, and soon-to-be mom! She throws regular events in NYC introducing guests (myself included) to a plethora of brands spanning beauty, fitness/health, style and lifestyle products and is a true tastemaker in the world of fashion —- can you tell I’m a fan? So I asked Pamela for her must-haves for the season and here’s what made her list:
Jill Zarin Facets Ring ($58)– cocktail rings make a big statement and this one talks from all sides. I love how sleek and modern the shape is, with just a hint of crystals. Best of all in December 35% of the purchase price goes to the Ilya Peckerman Fund Vasculitis Foundation, which raises money for research grants to find a cure for these rare, autoimmune diseases. www.
Pinch Provision kits ($15) – adorably compact kits because you never know when you’ll need hairspray, double sided sticky tape or clear nail polish. A savvy gal is always ready to shine, no excuses. I’d like someone to get me the Labor Delivery Kit. http://shop.pinchprovisions.
LAGOS Jewelry macramé bracelets ($150) – they are fun to stack and made with much more care and style than most of the macramé jewelry on the market. This is a great gift for all my girlfriends. Each one can have her own color. http://www.lagos.com/
Bindya cashmere/silk scarf ($135) – they feel amazingly, luxurious again your skin. Plus, scarves are so versatile. I love to wear them around my neck, draped over the shoulder, looped I front through a belt, or accenting the
What started as a curiosity turned into a life changing experience for me — and more so a better understanding of myself and the life I want to live. Over the past few years The Landmark Forum has come up in conversation; I had a friend tell me it helped her get over a breakup, another friend say it helped him with his career path, and some other similar anecdotes that all ended with life changing experiences.
While none of these incidents at the time caused me to sign up or dig deeper, with every story I heard I grew more curious until finally this summer I was having lunch in LA with a producer friend (who I never expected to have done it) and that was the final straw. None of these friends of mine had anything in common; how was this program making such a difference?
Let me back up by explaining what The Landmark Forum is. It’s a 3 day + 1 night program available all over the world that’s set up in a workshop setting where there are anywhere from 75-250 participants and one instructor leading a series of exercises geared around better communication and personal development. While many
There are more then a few brands on this list, I never thought would make my site, which is why all the more excited that they have!
For starters Cat footwear, which I always associated with work boots and construction — and with good reason, that is their specialty and they bare all types of advanced technology and safety features to get the job done. And with that I had the mentality of function over fashion, until I spotted their Marin Boots ($210)– love at first site!
{Cat Footwear Marin Boots}
Utilitarian boots are so in right now and these are so well made and flattering, they are one of my it shoes of the season! The attention to detail through the stitching and premium leathers, has made them a great winter staple. They come in 3 colors, Chili (brown), Coffee (two tone dark brown on camel), and Black. I have the Coffee but
Last night the unthinkable happened. I was stung multiple times by a mosquito while I was sleeping. And yes, I get it, mosquito’s love me — a curse that I’ve carried since I came into this world, but seriously, it’s October! That’s the best part about summer being done is mosquito season is over!
In any case I’m no stranger to the multiple offenses one little mosquito can do to my body while I’m sleeping. Usually somewhere around my 4th bite, I wake up — wake my boyfriend up and then turn on the light and wait until I catch it. Well, in my overly tired state I turned that light bulb on and then immediately off (it was too bright), and instead ran to my medicine cabinet for bug spray. Or so I thought, turns out without even realizing it, I had grabbed a bottle of EcoSmart Organic Bed Bug Killer & Repellent, which by the way smells great (it’s made with Peppermint Oil and Rosemary Oil) and proceeded to spray it all over the bed and on my
