Wanderlust

Super Secret Sneak Preview: laV
Fabulous French bistro laV is opening today! I love, love, love the Aspen-Austin connection, which I wrote about here.

Made of 14k white gold set with a fantasy-cut aquamarine and diamonds, the ring, designed by Austin’s Benold’s fine jewelry designer Michael Von Krenner, will now move on to the largest jewelry design show…
Happy Birthday Moonshine
For a three-year period of my life, most of my big moments were punctuated by a trip to Moonshine for brunch.
