Last Monday, one of my coworkers walked into our offices carrying a lovely Kate Spade small handbag and I gasped at how cute it was! I knew I had to have it. She got it at the outlets on 290 so I waited until the weekend, praying they would still have them (the entire store is deeply discounted, so I worried they would sell out.) Luckily, ...

Today while visiting Gawker.com, I saw a piece called A Visual Timeline of Lindsay Lohan's Fall from Grace. They showed a timeline of what Lindsay looked like in 2007 and how she looks now. I encourage you to visit Gawker and check out their entire gallery of Lohan photos. I don't like to negatively comment on other people's looks and I ...
Beauty Would You Rather TAG!
This tag has been floating around YouTube and beauty blogs so I thought I'd do this one for fun. I stole the questions from the lovely BubbleGarm's Blog. 1.Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or Nice hair and no make-up? I'd rather have messy hair but makeup on.

This post is going to talk about some products I've purchased over the last little while...I'll tell you if ...
