OOTD: Still Wearing Tights
It's still cold in the mornings here (well, let's be honest, I'm always cold, so anything below mid 70's feels freezing to me.) I still have a space heater at my desk and use it daily. Everyone in my office likes different temperatures so I've learned the only way I can be comfortable is by having an awesome space heater. My boss got it for me this ...

Home Decor: Inspiration & What Styles Appeal to You?
Before I begin my intended post, I wanted to share with you all a blog I saw posted today called Pale is the New Tan. If you EVER needed yet another reason not to use tanning beds (or O.D. on self-tanner, for that matter) this is the site for you (and it's also good for a laugh for pretty much anyone...unless...uh, you're featured on the site or ...
Loving Now: Shorts with Pumps- “The Hills” Stars Show Us How to Wear It (& How Not To)
I've seen some celebs lately pairing shorts with loose tops and pumps. I am absolutely loving this look. It makes legs look superlong and when paired with a loose top it doesn't look trashy (it can definitely look a bit trashy if you pair it with the wrong top, if the shorts are skintight or if the rest of your "look" is overdone.) I've seen girls ...
Weekend Shopping: If You’re Looking For Something, That’s When You Won’t Find It
I was so looking forward to my shopping trip today. I woke up, took an Excedrin and started my day with all of the hope in the world to find the perfect skirts for spring. And then it happened. It always happens when I set out to buy something specific. I don't ever end up finding what I'm looking for. It's like Murphy's Law. Every time I set out ...
Awesome Self-Tanner Alert: VS Bare Bronze Aibrush Self Tanner
The other day while getting dressed for work, I ditched my tights and opted for bare legs...that is until I was taking some OOTD pictures and noticed how pale and dry they were. Ick. I put on tights before I left the house because I realized it was only 50 degrees out that morning...it did get into the 70's later in the day but I had some early ...
Looks I’m Loving Now
I thought it would be fun to do a "Looks I'm Loving Now" post. Oftentimes when I surf celebrity sites I find myself saving pictures to my computer if they inspire me or appeal to me...and I always plan to write a blog about them and I just never get around to it because something else comes up. So...here are some looks I'm loving right now: The ...
I Had my Skin Checked Today: And You Should Too
Hello lovely readers. I typically like to keep this blog pretty lighthearted and fun, but this is an issue I'm so passionate about that it's hard for me not to preach about it.WARNING, I'M ABOUT TO PREACH!Skin Cancer. The rates are higher than ever before. In fact, research suggests that people who start using sunbeds under the age of 35 increase ...
I Hate Running Shoes & Review of Essie’s “Lilacism”
I have a strange hatred towards running shoes. I understand their purpose, appreciate their comfort and know they are necessary...but I hate them.They make my feet look even larger than they are. They are clunky, totally anti-girly and I just hate how they look on my feet.Let me preface this post by saying it is not meant to offend anyone. This ...
