In circles where phrases like “resort wear” and “Hampton cottage” are tossed about, Tory Burch is a household name. Away from New York society, the name is less well known but that is quickly changing. As a blossoming designer, socialite (and Lance Armstrong’s newest love) Burch is redefining the summer wardrobe by reintroducing a classic Eastern inspired staple – the tunic – into her stylish set. Universally flattering and the perfect accoutrement to everything from a bathing suit to white jeans to summer’s essential Bermuda shorts, a tunic should be the first item in your suitcase for upcoming vacations.

I've been a lifelong chocoholic. So, imagine my excitement when I learned that there was a (real-life) chocolate factory in Fremont. Instantly my mind filled with visions of Willy Wonka and his Oompa Loompas sailing down rivers of cocoa. While Theo Chocolate is far from fantasy, my recent visit to the United States' first roaster of fair-trade cocoa beans and the only organic chocolate factory in the nation was just as fantastic.
