Contest Winner! Congratulations & Thank You to Everyone Who Entered
Good Morning Lovely Blog Readers! I must admit I am extremely tired today because I was up until almost 4 a.m. which is absolutely unheard of for me because I am totally an "8 hours of sleep a night or I can't function" type of girl. We had a friend visiting from Dallas and ended up going to another friend's house to hang out and play Wii, etc. I ...

Today, I froze my gym membership for 6 months (gasp!) But but but...it's not because I'm not working out anymore, it's quite the opposite. I actually plan to work out more. Ever since January 1st, the 24 Hour Fitness I go to has been an absolute cluster. When I do attempt to go after work, I end up driving around the parking garage for 20 ...
Beauty Inspiration: Simply Stunning Cheryl Cole
Everyone knows I am obsessed with Cheryl Cole (I've blogged about her hair alone a few times.) There is something about her look that I find so stunning. The big hair, the pretty makeup, her smile.I saw some new photos of her recently which re-ignited my love of her overall look. I don't see her on celebrity blogs too often because I believe she ...
