Here it is! The fabulous dress I picked out during my visit to the Jigsaw London San Francisco shop last week. I adored the entire collection in the store and wished I could bring home all three of the dresses I tried on, but this one was the winner! I wore this dress to my cousin’s wedding in Sonoma. It was perfect. The long sleeves kept the crisp, evening fog from giving me a chill and the dress was easy to dance the night away in! Love that!

The print was also a hit with my family! They loved it; and it also happens to be an exclusive print designed especially for Jigsaw London! I love exclusivity!

I love the high quality of Jigsaw London’s clothing, comfortable fabrics and flattering cuts. It is my new favorite store! What are your favorite pieces from Jigsaw London? To view the collection, please visit Jigsaw-London.com.

Laura Mercier’s new “Luxe Brush Set” for the holiday 2013 season is nothing short of amazing! This luxurious brush set not only has all the make-up brushes you need on a daily basis, it has a detachable case inside which leaves plenty of room for the using the case as a clutch! How perfect is that!!!

I absolutely adore the case. The deep chocolate brown color and faux stingray texture offers a beautiful classic look which can be worn for years. The case is a hard box, so it acts like a hard box clutch which makes it easy to wear casually, as shown above, or paired with a dress for evening occasions.

Since Laura Mercier’s Luxe Brush Set comes in a beautiful handbag/case, it is perfect for traveling! You can easily fit the brush set, jewelry and make-up inside the case when tucking it into your suitcase. When you arrive at your destination simply remove the brush set and it’s zipper case along with anything you stored inside for travel and voila! You have a beautiful clutch! Love it!

Laura Mercier’s Luxe Brush Set will make the perfect gift this holiday season; for a loved one or you! The Luxe brush Set by Laura Mercier is priced at $125 ( a $26 value!) and can be found online here and here.

Happy Holidays! xoxo Cathy

Happy Friday! I am so happy casual Friday exists! There is something about the last day of the workweek where I always feel slightly tired yet extremely happy that the weekend is almost here. This type of mood almost always calls for jeans! Of course in the fall and winter months, it always calls for a cozy sweater too! I love this sweater by Trouve. It offers a classic look with a twist! Notice the asymmetrical zipper on the side. I love how the zipper adds a subtle touch which makes an otherwise timeless sweater unusual and fresh. I can see myself living in this sweater all season long.

Do you have a favorite, cozy and casual item this fall you are looking forward to wearing throughout the season? If so, please share!
