Just snooping around for a little hair inspiration lately, as I’m a bit bored with my default waves and curls, I found this great resource, Vogue’s Guide to Fall 2014 Beauty Trends, and though I flipped through about 86 of their hair, makeup, and other beauty trends, I found these to be the stand-outs. …
This video review post is brought to you by illuMask… all opinions are my own. While I’ve been lucky enough to have somehow slipped through my entire life avoiding horrible acne, I’ve always had breakouts, even now, well into my thirties. Fortunately, they don’t mortify me as much now as they did when I was …
I’m not sure why this particular eyelash comb will be better than all the others, but it somehow looks like it would do a far superior job… like a miniature rake for your lashes, I’m dying to try it! Have you? Thoughts? Shop | M2 Beauty’s M2 Tools : Eyelash Comb Surprisingly simple and impressively …
I’ve been trying to think of a cute new Valentine’s Day Manicure like my Heart Nails from a few years ago, but I’m a little lacking in the creativity department lately. Luckily it’s just the beginning of February so I have a little over a week to think of something else. But this is a …
This is a sponsored post & FAB giveaway on behalf of Walgreens and P&G… All opinions are my own! I loved the major minimalist white dresses on the red carpet at the People’s Choice Awards last week! They looked so refreshing in a sea of floral poufs and sparkles. I think Jessica Alba was …
A few months ago I was sent Color Wow Root Cover Up {temporary hair color/powder} to try out and I’ve been sort of waiting for my roots to grow out to really give it a proper test. And now’s that time! As I’ve probably mentioned a hundred times since 2007 when I started this blog, …
I bought the husband the Nike+ Fuelband for Christmas and two days later had to buy one for myself because it was so cool and he was having so much fun with it. I got the limited edition Fuelband with the rose gold clasp and LOVE IT… but I think it’s sold out now :(. …
A few weeks ago I was one of 10 lucky bloggers to meet Tim Gunn and chat beauty and style at Walgreens in Hollywood with Marsha Chilko, P&G Beauty Ambassador for the #OnMyWay2Fab campaign and The 2014 People’s Choice Awards airing tonight/Jan 8 at 9/8c and the red carpet pre-show streaming live, which I can’t …

As a fashion, lifestyle, & beauty blogger, I’m sent a ton of products to try out. Some have been part of sponsored posts and others were simply gifted products. If you’re a blogger, you probably understand this. Earlier in the month I wrote about all the beauty products I’ve been sent to review that I …
Pinterest is a master at the art of time suckage, to quote the movie Reality Bites. It can suck us all in for hours and hours, as we pour over and pin perfectly pretty and somewhat unrealistic photos of what inspires us to create a more beautiful life. But sometimes we get lost in a …
Jamberry Nails sent me a fun packet of nail art wrap designs to try out over a month ago but I’ve been giving my nails a rest to rejuvenate. After months of weekly nail art manicures, they start losing their vitality, and begin cracking, and breaking daily, and so I generally like to give them …
It’s difficult not to like Alexa Chung, try as I might, it’s actually impossible. She’s too “real” and too honest for me to really hold onto anything that would make me dislike her, though I don’t stop trying. I recently read her book IT and though it was a little boring, I’d read it again …
