February 14, 2013Easy Valentine’s Hair
February 6, 2013Need a do for Valentine’s Day? Love curls, but can only achieve the look with an expensive visit to the salon? I feel your pain, in fact- almost every time I attempt curls using curlers or a curling iron- they stay in for about 20 minutes-yes this is after I’ve sprayed it with tight hold hair-spray. Have an extra shirt lying around? ( or drop by Goodwill for a cheap one!)
I have a quick and easy DIY using an old shirt to create beautiful hair perfect for Valentine’s Day!

Weekend DIY Project: Love Decor
February 4, 2013
LOVE is in the air! Okay, well, physically it’s on the bookshelf, but these little Valentine’s Day frames definitely make my heart smile! And they were oh-so-simple to make (and free using supplies I already had – Bonus!)!
Almost everytime I go shopping at Goodwill, I grab a frame (or two) to add to my stash, and those purchases came in handy with this project! I was inspired to add a some Valentine’s Day cheer to my home on a recent trip to Target – their Read the rest of this entry ?
Hot Valentine’s Day Date?
January 30, 2012It’s never to early to start planning out your attire for a hot date! And with Valentine’s Day, the hot date of the year, right around the corner, NOW is the time to start looking!
I’ve found some awesome outfits which could be worn out with your man, out with your girls or at home having vin chaud with your cats..; )
Outfit #1: Valentine’s Day Girl’s Night
Who say’s you can only have a great time on the most commercialised Holiday known to man-kind with a guy?
Wrong, you can have a great night out with the girls! And for that night, I suggest a sweet and flirty dress, like this one from modcloth.com. Imagine yourself channelling the pin-up girls of the 50′s in this adorable dress! Pair with a killer pair of open toe pumps and red nails= unstoppable!
Outfit #2 Date night with the Beau
I am so in love with this dress from asos.com! What’s so perfect about it is A. It’s super sexy, without letting it all out and B. its versatile so it can be dressed up ( I’m thinking black tights and patent leather pumps) or dressed down ( tightless and black flats) depending on where you’re being taken out ; )
Outfit #3: Cozy with the Cats
All alone? Don’t fret, this is what you need: 1. Funny movie from redbox 2. Ice Cream 3. Super comfy pj’s….like these from target.com and they have cute kittens all over ‘em, awwww
What does your Valentine’s Day look like?

The Slim Down
January 23, 2012Did you make a resolution to slim down in 2012 and have gotten off the beaten path since January 1st? Or maybe you have a big event coming up; Valentine’s Day date, formals, even PROM, and your goal is to accentuate those GREAT areas and down play those….not so great areas?
There are plenty tricks of the trade when it comes to Fashion, especially when you want to appear slim….even when you have a burger baby! The classic slim down trick is Black. It also happens to be my favorite color, but there are other ways to appease the eye without looking like a gothic princess ( not hatin’).
I read an article recently on Yahoo which disclosed some crafty approaches to faking thin until you make it thin; http://shine.yahoo.com/the-thread/fake-it-til-you-make-it–5-easy–slimming-wardrobe-pieces-to-wear-now.html. 
My favorite thin techniques are: 1. Black 2. Drape Neck Cardigan 3. Long Hair 4. Good posture 5. Spray tan
Number 3 may seem crazy, but it’s so true. When your hair is long it elongates your face and upper body ( depending on the length) as well as provides slight coverage!
What are you favorite ways to fake thin?!
Fake it till ya make it,
