Measure of happiness.

One of my favorite ways to decorate my home is by replacing the mundane with something colorful and charming. Take these measuring cups and spoons, for example. Can you imagine a sweeter addition to your kitchen? I don’t see any harm (except, perhaps, budgetary) in choosing any of these darling options over more run-of-the-mill cups, do you?

With New York Fashion Week just about to wrap up, I can’t help but have Fall on the brain. One of my favorite looks came from Naomi Campbell’s Fashion For Relief event, which benefitted relief efforts in Haiti. Styled by Rachel Zoe, the show was a nonstop rush of celeb sightings both on and off the runway. Each model sported a crisp, shimmery white called Diamond District from Dashing Diva’s collection of oh-so-hot nail colors. The color, which surprisingly flattered everyone’s skin tone, is available for a bargain-friendly $6 here.

Sail away.

Cruises haven’t really been my thing, perhaps on account of feeling claustrophobic at the slightest hint of confinement. But with a deal like this one from Caribbean Cruises, I may work on my issues and book a fast getaway. For $299 and with very limited departure dates (April 24th and May 3rd only, with destinations determined by when you leave), this trip would be perfect if you have the time off and are alright with an itinerary planned for you. Choose from Jamaica and Grand Cayman on the 24th, or Turks & Caicos and the Bahamas on the 3rd, with all cruises departing from Miami.
