I’m a sucker for a swanky afternoon tea and this one at Dublin’s fab boutique hotel, The Westbury, looks right up my alley. Table for 4, please!

Shoe-la-la
My latest obsession is these black satin sneakers from Superga, designed by none other than The Man Repeller’s own Leandra Medine. I’m ordering mine today! http://www.superga-usa.com
Summer Moisturizer
I love this time of year, when I switch from thick winter beauty products to lighter ones. Kiehl’s Super-Multi-Corrective Cream is one of the very best things about summer! I just adore the scent.
Off-Season Shopping
If you’re like me and hate paying full price, the best time to buy a new coat is NOW. I just picked up this fun and funky ASOS leopard coat for a song. And free international shipping!
Foodie Biking Tours
Love biking? Love food? Love the Luberon region of Provence? Then this tour is for you. Read all about it on The Provence Post: http://www.theprovencepost.blogspot.fr/2014/05/a-luberon-tour-for-foodies-by-bike-or.html
Style Inspiration
My German friend Corinna is my style inspiration for today. I just love what she’s done with that wrap around her waist. I would have just worn something like this with a pair of sandals, but the hat and boots really bring that extra va-va-voom to this flowy dress for a look that’s perfect for spring.
Play Dirty, Stay Spotless
Finally! Where have these jeans been all my life? The Skinny Ankle from Joe’s Jeans features an innovative wash treatment that will repel spills no matter what surprises your day brings. It resists liquids such as water, coffee, soda and wine. http://www.joesjeans.com
Happy Mother’s Day!
Don’t get your hopes up, Mom! Not that I wouldn’t buy you a $45,000 Chanel bag if I could. You totally deserve it. But I hear there are only 3 of these limited edition croc bags in all of France, so my chances would be slim, even if I had that kind of money. A girl can dream, though, right?
Bucket List: Provence
“Ah Provence… the beauty of the landscape, sunshine, vineyards, lavender and sunflower fields, medieval villages, pastel shutters, winding roads and olive orchards. Now there’s something else to add to your Provence bucket list – truffle hunting in the most magnificent location in Provence. Go behind the scenes of the world’s most secretive business and most expensive natural food produce. Learn how truffles are cultivated and how truffle dogs are trained and then hunt for the elusive “black gold” with professional hunters and toast your find with Champagne and truffle delicacies…” Read the whole story here: http://www.thegoodlifefrance.com/truffle-hunting-france-gorgeous-provence/
