It's no secret I have an affinity for the WhoWhatWear Collection for Target. I love that these pieces have style, they're up with the trends, yet not "trendy" and so dated that we'll get tired of them in 6 months. I also love that I can wear them being my age, and yet so can a gal way younger than me, as well as a woman 15 years older than me. These pieces can be worn to work then out to a dinner party. Versatile and stylish and the best part … [Read more...]

7 Ways To Control Impulse Shopping
Control and shopping in the same sentence? I think that sounds like an oxymoron. Would you ever think of shopping as an addiction? Some over eat, some smoke, some drink, some gamble, and some shop.

Yes, that's one battle I've had to overcome. What's the harm … [Read more...]
