Play Things

Whether you refer to them as play suits, rompers, onsies, or jumpers, one thing is clear - these sexy shorts are a chic and so-effortless way to get dressed this summer.


A knit one-piece is insanely easy for running errands or a casual lunch. This one has a sweet little halter neckline that ties in the front.







The Antik Batik version is absolutely a summer vacation staple! Pairs perfectly with flat sandals and glamorous sunglasses for sightseeing and sunning.

Turel Romper, $98



Diane von Furstenberg's design mixes ultra-luxe hammered silk with a playfully bold print and super-sporty racerback.

Lynnia Romper, $255



This version from Elizabeth & James is quite possibly the season's sexiest, thanks to a seductively deep neck-to-waist slit in the back!

Summer Bare Shoulder Romper, $350

Bliss World

The past ten days have been a little more than hectic for me - art directing a two-day photo shoot, attending a memorial service, and hosting a 40+ guest-bridal shower for my dearest friend. I'm yearning for a bit of pampering but am a little too exhausted to even leave the house. And I may not have to thanks to this ad from Bliss Cosmetics:

Take the ‘spa’ into your own hands at blissworld.com

Intriguing! So I can get the same glow-inducing facial products that I'd find at a Bliss Spa without leaving the comforts of my own little nook - perfect! I'm after the Bliss Triple Oxygen Take Home Trio (above left) for its calming effects and super-cleansing-yet-non-drying formula. The kit comes with Bliss Cosmetics bestselling Clog-Dissolving Cleansing Milk, Triple Oxygen Instant Energizing Mask, and Sleeping Peel Resurfacing Gel.

I'm also going to pick up Bliss Tempt Feet (right) to soothe and soften my tired feet - the Foot Patrol AHA exfoliating and softening cream combined with the Diamancel #11 Tough Buffer turn cracked heels and dry feet silky and feather soft!
Spaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!
