When I get home from a shopping trip, I often quip to my husband "look how much money I saved!" while excitedly flapping my shopping bags in the air. It's usually met with an eye roll, but the hubs does oftentimes congratulate me on my shopping prowess. He even saves coupons for me when he sees them in the mail! True love! Obviously, ...

Holiday Shopping: Gifts for Men!
Alright, I'll admit it. I am the worst at picking out gifts for men. The main reason is that my H never really wants things. He likes to get gadgets, like any dude (big flat screen TVs, iPad, etc) but as far as other things...he could go a year without buying new clothes and be perfectly happy (not that I'd allow that!) I'm trying to fulfill ...
OOTD: That Striped Dress
I never thought I'd say this (ever) but I wish it was cold. I mean not "snowstorm minus 30 with a windchill making it feel like minus 40 cold, but cold.) I want to wear tights, boots, leg warmers, coats, hats and mittens. I'm still going to the office bare-legged, only dreaming of the days I can break out my tights and layer more. The last ...

Knowing What to Ignore
Do you spend your life worrying what people think about you and dwelling on negative comments you've received? I have been wanting to write this post for a very long time and have just now had a chance to sit down and do it. About six months ago, I was having a tough time with many aspects of my life and after a particularly grueling vent session ...
How to Get the Hair You Want!
Have you ever left the salon with a haircut you hate or chunky highlights you don't remember asking for? Then this post is for you.A lot of women find it difficult to communicate with their stylist. They don't know how to convey what they want or they feel their concerns aren't being listened to. They feel nervous and afraid to ...
Home Updates (or Lack Thereof)
I haven't written about our new home in a long time because our house is in shambles. I went on one of my manic cleaning sprees and threw away a ton of stuff and we bought these vacuum seal bags to store things we never use like older bed sheets and pillows, etc. Basically, our house looked better the day after we moved in than it does now. We've ...
New Hair & Weekend Shopping: Gilly Hicks & Lululemon
Today I went and had my hair cut and colored at my salon. I am so happy with the way it turned out! It feels softer and light as air! Usually, I only get partial highlights over my natural color, but today, my stylist added lowlights into the mix because if you keep doing blonde highlights over and over without ever breaking it up, you're going to ...
