W&D over on ASOS

One of my favorite retailers ASOS.com asked me to participate in a little style feature to kick-start summer. A few bloggers and myself picked out a dress and styled it in our own way. Check out all the looks here. You can also shop what we’re wearing, and enter to win some great prizes, like a $500 giftcard.

This is a little different for Wit & Delight and I had fun wearing styling the dress. Now go get your shop on!

Two Ways: High Waisted Jean

The goal of the facial was to get a read on what was going on with my skin. I also wanted to increase radiance and keep my skin looking fresh and dewy. Here’s the plan that Christen put together for me:

In The Kitchen: Lobster + Ricotta Pizza with Basil + Egg

This pizza is the result of going to the grocery store while famished. Stopping in after going for a run, I had an agenda- to make a lot of pizza. This is where my stomach starts calling the shots.

Mixtape No. 11: The Naughty Meets Nice Mixtape

I was looking through my “Recently Added” playlist the other day and realized how bipolar my iTunes purchases have been. I’m rocking out to M.I.A’s ballad for Bad Girls everywhere, and the next thing I know I’m listening to the Flamingos doo-wop their way into my head. Oddly enough, the sudden change in musical genre works for me, perhaps because they’re chronologically ordered and relate to a certain time or emotion. In any case, songs speak to the different sides of ourselves, so I thought I’d put together a mixtape that pays homage to my “bad-meets-good girl” taste in music. Hope you like.
