October 1, 2014 by jessica 4 Comments

[dropcap custom_class=”normal”]T[/dropcap]ick tock! Today is the official release of Tory Burch’s new watch collection. There’s a style to suit every personality from The Tory for the sporty types, The Buddy for the classic ladies (my favorite), and The Izzie for the bold beauties. Browse all of the Swiss timepieces here. (You’ll undoubtedly fall in love with the limited edition Robinson Watch. It’s an investment piece, certainly, but with the lapis inlay it’s an accessory to be cherished forever.)

I usually buy a new travel-size perfume before we head on vacation. It’s a small (yet effective) way to bring back vivid memories of the getaway long after we’ve come home. It’s also why Philosophy’s margarita body wash conjures up memories of a harsh California sunburn and Pucci’s Acqua 330 takes me back to the first vacation I took with Dave just months after meeting.

I’ve recently been introduced to Callio Fragrance, a NYC-based company founded on the belief that scent can bring back special moments. Callio Fragrance offers seven signature scents, all concocted by hand. I was given the opportunity to try Melee and Kiele. I knew I’d fall for Melee’s combination of lime, coconut and lemongrass (three of my favorite fragrances), but I didn’t expect to prefer the lush florals of Kiele. I usually avoid florals since they can be a bit matronly, but this one is young and fresh. In fact, it’s already packed in my travel bag for South Carolina (we leave in 10 days!). I can’t wait for the memories this one brings back months later.

I know there have been a lot of product posts this week, but I want to share one more that I’m raving about: Kushyfoot.

Kushyfoot carries an array of specialty socks that slip discreetly into a variety of shoe styles. I wore a pair of their ultra low-cut socks with my boat shoes last weekend, but my favorites are the padded styles with a little cushion under the ball of the foot. They’re are a godsend for event days when even the most comfortable pair of flats leave my feet achy and sore.
