Do you ever have those moments where you think to yourself, “I wish I would have thought of that!” I do ALL the time. (It began when Juicy came out circa 2003- I mean why couldn’t I have thought of cute sweatpants!) ANYWAYS, one of the perks of starting this little blog is that I’ve […]

Getting the mini’s a passport…
Hey AG’s! One of the most complicated things about having a child abroad is figuring out how to get them a passport, social security, etc. Thankfully, if you know the right steps, and are on top of it, the process can be relatively painless. Here’s the low-down… In order to get your child a US passport […]
A tip for cruisin’ around Europe…
A good friend of hubby and I recently recommended the rental car company Sixt. I was eager to try pretty much any rental car company after a disaster with Hertz last summer in Italy. The car that was given to us stalled out on each Tuscan hill we attempted to climb, creating a backlog of […]
If you can’t make it to centre court this year…
This is my first summer in London not attending Wimbledon and we’re trying something new. Bluebird on the Kings Road has put up a GIANT screen and is showing all of the key matches, with a special champagne cocktail menu. I can’t wait to try the “Mixed Double,” stawberries, Pimms, and champagne! Not only is […]
A little bit of 90210 in London..
Who doesn’t love mini-muffins?! I do, I do! I’ve been dying to do a post on Beverly Hills Bakery (yes, they are located IN London) ever since we received a basket from them when I was in the hospital having Mini AG. This place is absolutely to-die-for-yummy! We received the classic basket which included all sorts […]
You are the sunshine of my life…
Hi girls. So, I am really excited for this weekend, its the Hard Rock Calling Concerts in Hyde Park. Last summer we got to see Dave Matthews and Bruce Springsteen, and this Saturday it’s all about Stevie Wonder. The concerts run from the 25-27 of June and Paul McCartney and Pearl Jam are also playing! […]
Fresh and Healthy Meals Delivered To Your Door…
For the past several weeks I’ve been conducting a fun, and very healthy experiment. I have had the privilege of trying out three different food delivery services in central London; Pure Package, Raw Fairies, and Nosh Detox. Post baby, and pre-summer holidays, these have been an absolute dream! Pure Package I received a one day […]
St Tropez Sparkle!
Hey AG’s! Hubby, Mini and I just got back from an absolutely fantastic weekend in St Tropez. If you haven’t been yet- you must must go! One of my best girlfriends, who is super fabulous herself, married a very famous French photog, and the wedding was superb- we’re talking world-famous DJ’s spinning on the beach […]
Horray for Halston!
My hat goes off to Sarah Jessica Parker this summer, not for SATC2 (I mean seriously girls, it had NO plot!), but for making Halston Heritage a household name, just like she did for Manolo Blahnik. The dresses and accessories are literally flying off the shelves everywhere you turn, and not even NET-A-PORTER can keep […]
Great brows, in a Blink!
American Girl, Wendy, has asked for a recommendation for brow-shaping! Well, Wendy this has been a bit like the mani/pedi search for me, and here are my thoughts… First off, I would definitely say not to try just any one willy-nilly for a brow wax. I made the mistake of asking one girl if she […]
Holiday, Celebrate!
Summer is upon us, and that means one thing- holiday! One of the most fantastic things about living in London is that you are two hours (give or take) from pretty much all of Europe. It’s a US based website, but, if you haven’t checked out Luxury Link yet, you must must must! My Hubby […]
J’adore…
For my American Girl Fashionistas, I received this in my inbox and thought I would share. Try to sneak in this weekend or go Monday! We are delighted to invite you to the Dior Sale Preview for Spring Summer 2010 collection. The preview begins on Saturday 12th June and ends on Sunday 13th June 2010. Location: 31 […]
