One thing I love are cocktail napkins.They can help set the entire tone of the party right off the bat! I thought it would be fun to organize a cocktail napkin swap because it is easy to do, and it’ll be an inexpensive exchange with minimal postage costs. If you think so too, you are invited to join the fun! I think this will start the summer off in style! Won’t this be fun? 🙂 I haven’t seen a swap… [Read More]

I took them out of the box, admired them and slipped them on my feet and instantly enjoyed my higher elevation. I walked to my car in the garage. I stepped of out… [Read More]
At first, Danny, my go-to guy at the salon told me if I bought one Brazilian procedure the other one was free. I told him my Tierra del Fuego was off limits and I was there for north of the equator maintenance, not south of the border. Well, you know what I mean and what what I’m talking about, right? The Brazilian Blowout. (Not me but my hair is naturally like this.) The Brazilian Blowout (B.B.) is a process to… [Read More]

My new loves ~‘Pro Longwear’ Lip stain Marker in Runway Ripened (pictured). Think felt tipped marker for your lips.I was surprised how much I liked this.

I love products that deliver what they say they will.Here are some that do ~ LipFusion XL ($50)It’s a night time treatment that works on a molecular level that rehydrates and plumps your lips. It’s clear and it tingles. I go to bed with this on and wake up with a perfect pout. I can actually see a difference in the morning when I put on my lipstick and/or gloss. You can also use it during the day as a… [Read More]
