Last weekend, I drove up to Rhode Island for a meeting with the Loren Hope executive team. I’m excited to be working with them in a professional capacity, doing marketing consulting for the luxury jewelry line. It’s a brand that I admire and the couple that runs the company is just lovely.

Loren, the creative genius behind our favorite sparkles, and I took these fun photos on a gloomy Saturday afternoon while waiting for a lunch table in Providence. I am obsessed with stacking her crystal bracelets because the look takes any boring old outfit from drab to glam just like that.

I drove up and back in one day in pouring rain so comfort was non-negotiable. I am a freak about leggings in the winter. They’re literally the only piece of clothing I want to wear on my lower half between November and February every year. My friend Hitha recently introduced me to the brand Lyssé which makes leggings that suck everything in. . . Like everything. Fat day? No problem. Bloated? Well now you look like a model! I highly recommend investing in a pair this winter.
