Styling With Michael Kors From Head to Toe
I've always loved the Michael Kors Brand -just enough flash to get you noticed and products that are well made that will last and worth every penny you pay for them.

The Great State Fair of Texas
Take a look at why you should be joining us at this All American event.
Oh Joy! Mexi-Dip Just in Time for the State Fair of Texas
It's also time for the State Fair of Texas which is one of our favorite times of the year. Every year I say I'm not going to enter anymore, and then I can't help myself and start working on entries again. This year I have already won three 1st and one 2nd place ribbon so I'm completely motivated.
Party Foods is the first category that I'm planning on entering, and this recipe has quickly become one of my favorites.
The Perfect Pairing: Mondavi Home and Thermador Appliances
Rob and Lydia Mondavi have started Mondavi Home, and this beautiful showhome in Beaufort, SC is a wonderful example of how liveable the collection is. The Mondavis chose Thermador appliances for this home because the design fit in perfectly with what they were building, and the Thermador wine columns were perfect to keep Rob's wine collection at just the right temperature.
Find more information here about Mondavi Home, Thermador Appliances and how the Ultimate Lifestylist got these two together.

Garden Harvests
A Caprese salad is always one of my favorite meals in the Summer, using goodies that I harvest right outside my door and I decided to figure out a recipe that I can enter in the Party Foods section of the fair that would be a play on this favorite.
Fingers crossed, I'm liking what I've come up with. I'll let you know what the judges think of it in a few weeks!

What I didn't realize is that it was such a great term and brand so many people would try to copy what I do. Talk about being naive...
The great news is that consumers have really embraced what we do, and we are busier than ever. We have stunning new Lifestylist Designed apartment communities opening up in New York - The Hammocks at Canandaigua and The Hammocks at Geneseo. These communities are all about lifestyle, and we love spending the time exploring the roads less traveled and learning what makes these communities so special.
We have also just completed The Hammocks at Millcreek - another beautiful Riedman Companies community that is their first in Pennsylvania. This one was particularly close to my heart - it's in Erie, PA just minutes from where our family has owned a farm since the 1940's and we spent Summers enjoying fruits and vegetables we picked then enjoyed at picnics on the beach.
I've been taking some of the skills and recipes I received from my family and have been busy in the kitchen as well. I pride myself on not only being the Ultimate Lifestylist but also being a pretty good cook, and love entering the State Fair of Texas every year. This year I've already received three 1st place ribbons and one 2nd place one, and that's before the fair has even opened!
At the end of the day I guess I should be flettered by how many people are trying to copy what I do, but there will only be one original Lifestylist, and that's me :)
I hope that you will continue to follow me on my journey - we have more to share than hours in the day!
