Midlife is Often Connected to a Crisis

February 1, 2021

Midlife is oftentimes connected to a crisis… I had mine in my early 40’s while going through a divorce.

When it comes to accessorizing, more is definitely more! 💎 Rocking the @marciamoran_jewelry Iris Collection has me feeling bold and unstoppable. The Asha necklace adds the perfect pop with its diamond-shaped stone on a sleek rope chain, while the Elena earrings serve just the right amount of texture and glam. And can we talk about the Collette ring? Major main character energy!✨

Still looking for the perfect gift? Treat someone special—or yourself. You deserve it. 💛 Use code ISABELLA15 for 15% off and shine brighter this holiday season.

🎀 When life gives you no @hermes Kelly, you go full Miss @dior !!!🎀

last March, my sweet hubby planned the ultimate birthday surprise : an Hermès Kelly bag (yes, THE elusive holy grail) through a London based stylist/broker, who delivered a Birkin bag for me 3 years ago. Fast forward 7 months later, the consolation came via #dior

Classic staples + new gems from their Cruise Collection, topped off with the VIP treatment at Dior’s New Bond Street store in Mayfair. Imagine stepping into a private salon, watching three dramatic doors, swinging open to reveal everything in my size, pieces from a collection not even on the floor yet! 👗👠
🎀 Cue the dress up fantasy, complete with stunning shoes and bags! I was in my princess era👸 And yes, this was literally the first thing I did after landing. Zero jet lag, 💯% shopping energy🛍️
So … one Kelly bag or all of this Dior magic? Tell me, which team are you on🤔

Day 2 of our trip to Williamsburg, VA was a true adventure, filled with more historical immersion, delicious food, cultural experiences and the natural beauty of Virginia! @visitwilliamsburg #visitwilliamsburgpartner

Of course, everyday starts with a workout for us! We truly made the most of the state-of-the-art facilities at @kingsmillresort

Then we were out the door for an authentic blown glass demonstration at the Jamestown Glasshouse @colonialnps where one of a kind treasures are made.

Our eyes and ears were wide open at the wonders of Jamestown Settlement (@jyfmuseums) where we marveled that there is so much to learn about our history and that learning is the great connector of the generations. We are never too old for that.

After a healthy and delicious lunch @foodforthoughtrestaurant we thoroughly enjoyed our tour and tasting at @copperfoxdistillery where we were able to immerse ourselves in the process of whisky making and sample the delicious variety of their creations!

Finishing our day at Yorktown Scenic Sunset Sail with @sailyorktown was such a beautiful time sailing the York River laughing and enjoying our time together.

By then we had worked up an appetite for our fantastic final meal at Second Street American Bistro @secondstwb where we toasted to our friendship and gratitude for our time with

A quick coffee break at @theoriginalaromas and some retail therapy at @monkeesofwilliamsburg in @merchantssquare, then we were off on a fantastic tour of @colonialwmsburg with Trish from @williamsburgwalkingtours. The history and charm of Colonial Williamsburg are truly a must-see!

After a tasty lunch at @dogstreetpub we strolled through the prestigious @william_and_mary campus. Then, after a quick refresh at the resort, we wrapped up the day with an incredible dinner at @fatcanaryrestaurant
