Refined Simplicity & Marcella Hazan

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” Leonardo DaVinci.

In honor of the late, great food writer Marcella Hazan, the maven of simplicity, it’s all about simple, relaxing pleasures this week.

Here’s Marcella’s famous 3 ingredient tomato sauce. Nothing could be simpler, or better.

The colorful office supplies company Poppin is having an anniversary sale with 20% off everything. Their tagline is “Work Happy, ” and their design aesthetic is sleek and contemporary with every candy color you can imagine. So much fun.

And here’s a simple way to do good and look good. Pick something gorgeous to wear (or to share) from the Live in Pink Collection, and 60% of the purchase goes to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Here’s a cool find. Flower paintings with a simple gesture that cuts through the prettiness.

A simple way to give his wedding outfit a little personality: a statement shoe for the groom would look great for a vintage-themed wedding.

Pumpkin bread, made with Amish simplicity.

Sometimes, it’s simpler to say “I’ll have what she’s having.” Especially when it’s all this chic.

Have a simply gorgeous weekend!

Breast Cancer Charities & Awareness

If, like us, you’ve been directly affected by Breast Cancer, our heart goes out to you. Fighting cancer is a cause that’s very important to us, and we’re please to have been recognized as one of Britt’s picks over at JCK online. We adorned our Leah ring with a pink sapphire and are featuring it all month as a symbol of courage, strength and solidarity.

We also noticed some other businesses bringing attention and donations to the cause, and we want to give them a shout out. We’re only including company’s that donate 100%.

Rao’s, (the exclusive NYC restaurant with the high-end pasta sauce) is selling a pink gift basket full of incredible products, and all the proceeds go to The Cancer Center at NYU Langone Medical Center.

Philosophy also donates 100% of net proceeds from sales of Shower for the Cure.

And if you like to give directly, here’s a breakdown that compares Breast Cancer Charities and how they rate.

think pink for breast cancer awareness & Cycle for Survival

October is here, and it’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

We’re thinking pink, so here’s our Leah Engagement Ring, sporting a pink sapphire in support of all the brave mothers, daughters and sisters who have battled breast cancer. We are so incredibly proud and in awe of you!

And here’s another cause that’s dear to us, and that we want to promote.

Our own David Cooper is cycling to raise awareness and money for rare cancer, for the third year in a row! Cycle for Survival is a great cause, and since it’s Breast Cancer Awareness month, we want to recognize his efforts. Go David! Let’s kick rare cancer’s butt. To learn more and donate, go here.

It’s also Bullying Prevention Month, so check out the inspiring #awkwardyearsproject on Twitter.

Didn’t cry yet? Five hundred and eight adolescent girls living in poverty in 14 countries across four continents were asked what they need to have a chance to reach their potential. It’s called The Girl Declaration, and we dare you not to cry.

And here’s one last link to inspire you. This bold 8 year old girl’s activism got sexist books removed from her bookstore.

Be the change you want to see in the world, everybody! And let’s all make a difference this weekend.
