Just Add Glam

the San Francisco lifestyle blog by JENNIFER HENRY-NOVICH

March 6, 2012 / FASHION

Freshly Minted

Dress: Cynthia Rowley // Top: Gorgeous // Shoes: Steve Madden // Bag: Sofia C. // Belt: ASOS // Bracelet: Kate Spade // Necklace: Carolee // Sunglasses: Target

Its no secret that I’m loving spring pastels.  Mint is increasingly becoming my favorite color of the season and I’ve got a new mint-hued bag to prove it (not to mention my recent discovery that I currently posses five (yes, FIVE?!) tubes of minty fresh toothpaste as captured on Instagram).  I clearly have mint on the brain!

I’ve been trying to transition a lot of my closet into day-to-night outfits: showcasing a central piece and then adjusting my accessories accordingly to make it more day or night appropriate.  This Cynthia Rowley dress is fun for its super comfortable feel and pockets (yes!) and I’ve been wanting to take it from a night-out LBD to a polished, daytime look.  To soften up the black I loved the idea of adding soft colors–in this case neutral beige and mint–to bring out the demure side of the dress.  Top it all off with a sweet strand of pearls et voila! This dinner dress is ready for brunch!

xoxo

Jennifer

      Thanks Avril, these shoes probably get the most mileage out of my entire collection. Would you believe that they are the most comfortable?

      Sarah, I completely agree. Mint was the pastel of spring, hands down.

      Yes you totally do! Nude pumps are my favorite because they make your legs look LOOOOOONG.

Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Her Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Here’s what we ordered:

🌟Cucumber Salad - a bright and light starter I’d love to make these at home (and @glucosegoddess would be proud!)
🌟String Beans with Garlic - I would have eaten 3 more orders of this had they not been $16/each. I’ve already been searching for copy cat recipes because they are just SO DAMN GOOD
🌟Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao - these are their classic soup dumpling and very yummy and chewy and I loved the soy-vinegar sauce pairing with it
🌟 Sticky Rice & Kurobuta Pork Shao Mai - these were recommended in a TikTok video but they weren’t my favorite. The rice plus the dough was just too much IMO
🌟 Chicken Spicy Wontons - these were very good! I would drink the bowl of sauce if no one was watching…
🌟 Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao - wow, what a great to end the meal! We don’t order dessert often but this really good. Love the melty creamy chocolate!

Can’t wait to go back! Have you been? You’ve got to try it!
I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board tog I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board together until late January because there it’s so much buzz around the new year and goal setting around the start of the new year…but how about waiting until the buzz around it starts to fade? I’ve been committed since 12/31/2022 but if you need some fresh inspiration for 2023…here you go!

Last year I made a digital vision board in Canva with about 8 vague photos and I never looked at it. This year, I got a huge poster board and nearly 100 very specific images of the things I want. VERY specific. In the short 3 weeks having this propped up in my office and seeing it each day, I’m already seeing the needle moving on these items! 

Have you created a vision board or set goals for 2023? What doe is mean to you? How are you achieving your goals this year? #goalsetting #visionboard
