I AM SO OUT OF SHAPE! Yes, that deserved to be in all caps. I was all confident about my fitness since starting Pilates again, but my utter and total lack of endurance has made cardio extra hellish for me. I tried to use my elliptical today and made it to just about 15 minutes before I thought I'd literally plop over and collapse. ...

We Got An Elliptical, Some OOTD’s & OPI’s “Midnight in Moscow” Polish
Hello ladies! We made it through another Tuesday! Today was an exciting day for me because we got an elliptical machine! The wonders of Facebook connected me with a friend who was selling hers and so we got this lovely elliptical for just $100. It's so essential for me to get cardio since I quit the gym so this will be perfect for ...
Holy Grail: Phytodefrisant Botanical Hair Relaxing Balm & OOTDs
Happy Thursday everyone! I had a work event last night so I was MIA from blogging but I'm happy to be back today. Before I get into my OOTD, I want to absolutely RAVE about a product I've been using for a few weeks now. It has pretty much secured a Holy Grail spot in my hair product collection. It's called Phytodefrisant Botanical Hair ...
Requested: Lash Routine & OOTD: Black, White & Gold. Plus: I Quit the Gym
I've been getting a lot of requests to post about my lash routine so I am going to do it in this post! Thank-you to everyone who requested this post. Here are a few images of my finished lash look: I like really thick, soft, feathery looking lashes. I notice a lot of women have sort of a clumped-together look and I'm not sure if it depends ...
Tucker for Target: Halo Print Camisole Dress (OOTD)
I had such a busy day today...but I love those days because I always feel like I get so much accomplished! I wore my new Tucker for Target Camisole Dress in Halo Print: I think this line hasn't been as popular as some of their other designer lines and for good reason. A lot of the pieces didn't appeal to me. For some reason though, I love ...
OOTD: Geometric Prints
Hello lovely readers! I hope everyone had a great day today. My day at work was really productive and I love having those days where you feel like you got a lot accomplished on your to-do list. I know this BR skirt is not a favorite for some, but it always makes me happy when I wear it. It's crisp and pretty! I think it photographs a ...
My Emmy Award Dress Kisses and Disses & A Quick Outfit of the Day
This post has to start off with the gorgeous January Jones who has been trashed on other websites and blogs for her Emmy dress choice...her dress was actually one of my favorites (gasp!)... I just love its shape, bold color and uniqueness. I thought the dress was made for her. I can't apologize for this---I LOVE it! Another favorite- and perhaps ...
Outfit of the Day & MAC Eyeshadow Rave!
This outfit isn't from today, but I thought I'd post it anyway. It's one of the dresses I got on sale at Zara that has the Grecian-style draped front. As I've said before, I love dresses for work because it's so EASY. It's one piece, maybe a belt, throw a sweater on top and you're good to go. I must admit I've been struggling with dresses ...
OOTD & GAP’s New Line of Dress Pants: Black Magic?
Happy Wednesday everyone! I had a meeting today for work so I decided to stick with a simple look: all black, of course. As you all know I wear black a lot because it's easy and flattering. Yesterday one of the ads I showed from the September issue of VOGUE was a GAP ad for their new line of dress pants called "Black Magic." I hope ...
Dressing Your Age: Do You? Join the Discussion.
Today I read an article in the LA Times about Ann Taylor changing their look to become more modern and also to target younger shoppers. Here are some excerpts from that piece: The women's apparel chain is trying to shake its "Corporate Cathy" image with the help of a design overhaul, updated stores and a new celebrity spokeswoman — Naomi ...
