There are two things I seriously get comments all the time. One, my eyebrows. Two, my hair. And two things I obsess over (well there are a couple more, but when it comes to my personal care and grooming) are my hair and skin.

You should hold a dance party for one. Really? Yes, really. Why??? Honestly, part of me can’t even believe I’m asking that question! Why should we hold a dance party for one? Because they’re fun of course, and lets face it, we could all use a little bit more fun in our life. Or a lot more fun. I have a confession to make.

5 Ways To Get A Little More Shut Eye
This year I’m all about making small steps towards overall improvement in my life, and last night when I found myself awake in the middle of the night returning e-mails and getting some work done, I knew that it was going to be a rough morning.

Fuzzy Friday: French Martini
This weekend is about the love... Love is in the air. Valentine's Day is about the love, and something about the French and Paris makes me think of love and romance.

Maybe it's for vacations to places like these. … [Read more...]
