Special thanks to U by Kotex for sponsoring today's conversation about travel essentials. It seems like every time I go somewhere, it takes me forever to figure out what I’m going to pack. I swear, I must spend at least as much time as I’m going to be gone trying to figure out what to bring with me. Packing for a 4 day trip? Gotta spend at least 10 days obsessing about it. As I type this, I ...
We all love to watch movies, right? I know I do! What you may not have noticed is all the hidden or brief Halloween moments in these movies. A short scene at a costume party. Maybe a batch of Trick or Treaters come by. Perhaps it's as subtle as passing someone in costume or a big display of pumpkins on the street. Halloween is in so many movies, and we don't even realize it. These are ...
Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year. I love how people go all out celebrating, and let’s face it - I am a sucker for decorations. Halloween used to be a one day, or one week only holiday, but not anymore. Nowadays, it seems that we’re celebrating for longer and longer. This distressed Sugar Skull shirt is the perfect piece to wear for Halloween – and beyond! Anyone can make ...
We all love beauty products. Let's face it - we do! But they're not all good for us. Tons of items have ingredients that have NO BUSINESS being on our skin. After all, our skin is the largest organ, and everything we come in contact is absorbed by our bodies. One of the ways we can help to avoid things that we don't want is to make DIY beauty products. But where do we start? Never fear! ...
I don’t know about your area, but in my area, watermelons are one of the signs that summer is waning. They usually roll into stores about the same time as school supplies. We pick ‘em up and have one last hurrah with a float trip or a great blowout BBQ. Never fear, though! We’re here to celebrate the end of Summer in style. Check out this adorable Half Watermelon nail art tutorial. We’ll ...
Special thank to U by Kotex for sponsoring this discussion. Be sure to get your FREE sample. When I'm traveling, I like to travel light. Well...sometimes. When I'm exploring a new city, I don't need to drag around my normal purse. I can strip it down to the essentials and just carry what I really need to. Let's start with the bag. I like a small crossbody with a really long ...
Who doesn't love a bun, right? It's easy to do, and looks good. Combine that with sculptural hair and a fishtail braid, and you might think that the look has gone overboard. Not with this look! Fishtail braids are still so hot! Just when we think that the trend is going to die off, it fires right back up. This brand new hair tutorial from Michael Duenas of the heart shaped fishtail braid ...

Whether you're headed to a baseball game, watching the kids play soccer, or out to the farmer's market, you're going to look fab doing it. Depending on your office, you could even wear this maxi dress to work, when paired with a little shrug. ...
