About Me:

I’m a graduate from University of Michigan and New York Law School. I live in NYC but I’m originally from Ohio. I’ve done it all- worked in fashion as a lowly intern dressing models for Jean Paul Gautier and Moschino at AEFFE, worked the corporate law firm as a legal assistant and worked for Fox News as an intern. I am a non-profit lawyer, which pays what you would guess. What do all these jobs have in common? Little to no salary to add to my fabulous Manhattan lifestyle! Living in Manhattan—amazing. Living a fabulous VIP lifestyle—PRICELESS–NOT! My site shows you how to live glamorous, for less. Where you should spend your hard earned cash and where to pass!

My Style: Trendy, fun, and flirty (ahem, not slutty). I love experimenting with the latest trends. I’ll let you know what’s cool this season and what the magazines are trying to convince you is…aka wearing sandals in the winter…that’s great for you California girls and Florida fashionistas but out here in the Northeast that’s just not going to happen!

What I Love: Disney princesses and Disney world (I’ve actually been 20 times), Gossip Girl, Shopping, US Weekly, Saks, Sample Sales, Rebecca Taylor, my Burberry rainboots, anything feminine and chic, changing up my look day to day (go from Blair to Serena in 1 day flat), Scrapbooking, taking pictures, Balenciaga, Chanel, homemade smoothies, Christmas, my fam and my BOYF!

Weapons of choice: Intelligent Nutrients hair and skincare, Kevin Aucoin or Great Lash mascara (the Queen Latifah one. I promise I get asked at least once a week what mascara I use), Marc Jacobs Classic Perfume and Smashbox smudgepot eyeliner.
