‘#GIRLBOSS’: One of the Best Books I’ve Read in a While

July 27, 2014 by anc49

Photo via Instead of my traditional book review format, I’m going to do something different this time around. #GIRLBOSS is a half-memoir, half-professional advice book by Sophia Amoruso, the Founder and CEO of Nasty Gal, which is the fastest growing online retailer in the world. Amoruso tells the ultimate underdog story of a college dropout who was diagnosed with ADD, committed petty theft, hitchhiked with strangers, and more—and ended up being a multi-millionaire by the age of 30. Nasty Gal started […]

Rice to Riches: A Review

July 26, 2014 by anc49

Photo via Like any good Cuban, I love rice pudding (or arroz con leche). Nothing had ever matched (or come close to) my grandma’s arroz con leche—until I tried Rice to Riches. It’s this quirky little shop in Nolita that literally only serves rice pudding (aside from beverages, obviously) and is decorated with bright, clever, politically incorrect signs that leave you no option but to laugh. It’s always busy and there are a bajillion rice pudding flavors and toppings. Or, […]

Drop What You’re Doing and Go to Zara’s Summer Sale Now!

July 25, 2014 by anc49

Photo via I have just gone to heaven and come back. No, really—Zara is having an insane summer sale. If you know me, you know my unhealthy obsession with Zara and my mania during their sales. Oddly enough, I was at dinner with a friend last night and we both said which brand we would wear for the rest of our lives if we could only choose one. You should already know what my answer was… Anyway, I had no […]

Weekly Sass Round Up: What I Loved These Past 7 Days

July 24, 2014 by anc49

Welcome to The Weekly Sass Round Up, a new section where I discuss my favorite findings and obsessions from the past seven days. My selections will range from beauty products to food to TV shows to blogs I love. I hope you love these things as much as I do—feel free to recommend something you stumbled upon recently and adored!

Celebrity Style Inspiration: Camilla Belle

July 23, 2014 by anc49

Photo via This week’s style star is Camilla Belle. Although she’s not very relevant or active right now in the acting world (how long has it been since When a Stranger Calls?), she knows how to dress and has some of the best eyebrows ever. And albeit our height differences, we have very similar hair color, complexion and body type so I like to seek style inspiration from her. Plus her current short haircut has given me some serious thought about my […]

Wordnesday: Dearth

July 23, 2014 by anc49

Word: Dearth Origin: 13th century Definition: a lack of something; a scarcity Sassy Sentence: Her dearth of skincare knowledge led her to believe that daily sunscreen wasn’t necessary and that a bar of soap was an adequate cleanser.

Blue Mercury Spa: A Review

July 22, 2014 by anc49

Photo via So my last facial was less than desirable, to say the least. It’s kind of like a bad relationship and consequent breakup—you think you’ll never love (have a facial) again and that you can never trust any other person (aesthetician) again. But like I mentioned in my last review, the aesthetician at Mario Badescu didn’t extract very much from my battered face so I had no choice but to put myself out there again in the hopes of clearing […]

Billy’s Bakery: A Review

July 19, 2014 by anc49

Photo via I’m a fan of all bakeries, so it’s no surprise that I jumped at the opportunity to try out Billy’s Bakery in Chelsea with a couple friends this past Sunday. I’d never been but fell in love with the place once I got there. It’s so charming and adorable—kind of like Magnolia meets Butter Lane. Anyway, I was overwhelmed with all of the scrumptious looking flavors and just knew deep down inside that a cupcake wasn’t gonna cut […]

The Meatball Shop: A Review

July 18, 2014 by anc49

Photo via Before I delve into my review for The Meatball Shop, I must admit that I am now a carnivore. After a year and a half of pescatarianism, I have begun to eat meat for health reasons. So last week when my friend invited me to dinner at The Meatball Shop, I couldn’t resist the offer because back in my previous carnivore days, I adored quality meatballs and of course, meatball subs. The Meatball Shop has several Manhattan locations, […]
