She is also the Founder and Owner of Haute Papier, a couture stationery studio with locations in Georgetown and Leesburg, Virginia. Her exquisite designs can be found in almost all 50 of the states and around the globe. Her eye for exceptional design has also landed her in national publications such as Martha Stewart Weddings and Brides Magazine.

A gourmand that knows exactly what it takes to make a perfect croissant, she'd never be caught with packaged cookies from the supermarket. She's truly a hostess with the mostess always planning down to the last detail of hand calligraphed placecards and menus for dinner parties.

A sucker for good books, fine wine, and a mean blue cheese mac-and-cheese, Sarah resides in Georgetown, with her husband and two dogs, aptly named Gewurz and Stella.

Want to “Accent”uate your Body?

Are you looking for smoother skin or a reduction in cellulite dimples or a more sculpted look, but don’t want the pain of surgery or lipo?   I just discovered the most miracle-like treatment out there.  Seriously!

Last week, I had the pleasure of having an Accent XL treatment at Calvert Rejuvenations in Herndon.  I have to start by saying I was obviously really hoping for results, but had a hard time understanding how something that was painless – it really doesn’t hurt at all – could make my skin firmer and smoother, but it works.  It really does.  My husband, who barely notices if I shave my legs, said, “your butt looks really good,” the day after I had it done!  So, what is it and how does it work, you ask?

In a nutshell, Accent XL uses Bipolar radio-frequency energy that is delivered to the dermis to stimulate the production of collagen.  It works by heating the water molecules in our subcutaneous fat which pulls out the toxins and trapped fluids.  The deep thermal heating contracts, remodels and multiples the collagen fibers to improve skin laxity and firmness.

My treatment, which was with Calvert, the owner of the spa, was enjoyable and actually spa-like, rather than stressful, like most medical procedures.  Calvert Rejuvenations is nestled into a quiet office building tucked into a wooded area not far from Reston Town Center and about 25 minutes from DC.  Calvert was wonderful – she gave me a brief tour of the spa and made me feel so comfortable.  She answered my questions and explained the entire process before we started and continued to do so as she was administering the treatment. I loved the experience and can’t get over the results.  I had just one treatment, but most people get a package of a couple of treatments to see even greater results.  And the price… For one session, the cost is $400 or for six, the cost is $2050.  If you ask me, it’s a great deal!  Less expensive than most other options out there and painless!
