Dear Food Fashionista,
I love that gold is shining bright for summer. Please give us a few more items that are so "fabulish"!

Supershiny gold is sunshine bliss. This LV bracelet reminds me of a daisy chain that will last and last and last. So darling for summer. Don't you agree?!

Dear Lisa,

Here's a tip for shedding those unwanted lbs. this new year.

Get a puppy!

Seriously, your puppy will get you (and your kids) outside to exercise. Fun for all!

Dear Lisa,

My daughter loves to dress up (whose doesn't) and I'm
hunting for something that's romantic and nostalgic without
being saccharine. (No more tutus and fairy wings!)

Any suggestions?

Outrageous (and even a little fussy, I admit) but to-die-for. Here's an exception to my rule of ultra-wearable fashion for kids: A most luxe gift for your daughter! Hand-sewn by Castelnou & Minervois. Pure enchantment. (Look at those buttons!)

Hi Lisa,

I love your blog! Any tips for a mom who wants clothes that are

playful and at the same time urban? Clothes I can wear to the

park or the office or downtown that will look like I'm acting my age?

A dear reader from Mill Valley emailed me. Here's her note:

-----------------------------------------
I say a wholehearted YES to all of the music you recommended to make the mood better for the whole family. But I thought your readers should know that Koop and Bitter:Sweet aren't Christmas tunes, but martini-lounge music.

Thanks for the fab suggestions.
