A Cardio Tip and my Love for Marisa Miller
Today is a good day. I've finally discovered a way in which I can power-through more than 20 minutes of cardio. E! News. I was on the elliptical today working away when I noticed the TV several machines down was about to air E! News. I looked for an opportunity to take over a "prime real estate" elliptical machine near that TV and as soon as ...
Going Rouge
No, I am not talking about Sarah Palin's new book, which is actually titled "Going Rogue," I am talking about the trend in Hollywood where blondes and brunettes are going rouge- red, that is. It also seems that natural red-heads are hotter than ever!I've always loved red hair. There is something so rare and beautiful about it. My one stipulation ...
Motivation Mondays: Health, Beauty and Fitness Inspiration
Recently, makeup artist guru extraordinaire Kandee Johnson, who is known for her sweet, positive "glass half full" nature said something that I found to be very impactful on her blog: let the words that come out of your mouth...encourage, inspire, compliment, and brighten someones day! When you speak positive words into others...you'll be surprised ...
Review: Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum
I just wanted to write a quick review about Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum. I have used it for two blowouts so far, and I very much enjoy it. My favorite aspect about the product is that it really does seem to cut down drying time, even when I air-dry.Since my first air-drying experiment gone wrong, I have started using an "air-drying" method ...
Looks from “The Hills”
I was inspired to write today's post after stumbling upon Amy Nadine's beauty blog (she is a makeup artist for Lauren Conrad and other celebrities).I was a Hills addict before it even existed- that's right, I've been watching since season one of Laguna Beach. I like the drama, the shopping, the California sunshine...what can I say?What I notice ...
NOTD: OPI “No Spain, No Gain”
This past Saturday, my best friend came over with a fresh mani/pedi in a gorgeous plum-y, purple-y, berry-ish color that I immediately fell in love with.She was wearing an OPI color from their fall 2009 "Espagna" collection- "No Spain, No Gain" (can I please have a job as an OPI nail-polish namer. It would be so fun!)It is a beautiful color and ...
Pony Tales…My Ongoing Updo Struggle
I hate wearing my hair up. Hate. I definitely see my hair as my "security blanket" which is why I always wear it down. It sounds strange, but I feel "exposed" when my hair is up. I actually feel uncomfortable.The only time I ever wear my hair up is when I go to the gym (because that's one place I really can't avoid it). No one wants to do cardio ...
A blush called “peony?” I knew I had to have it.
Yesterday afternoon I headed to the Galleria mall with high hopes of finding Chanel's "Jade" nail polish. After seeing beauty guru Tiffany D rave about it on YouTube and her blog, I knew I had to have it.I went to Neiman's, Nordstrom's and Saks...and the actual Chanel boutique, where it was sold out. Apparently, the color is a boutique exclusive. ...
Air-Drying Left me Damp (Literally)
Yesterday evening, I proudly came home from the gym after a good workout and washed my hair so that I could embark on the wonderful journey of air-drying. Unfortunately, my-air drying experience left much to be desired.After applying mousse to my roots and Morrocanoil to my ends, I dried just the front and top part of my hair with a hairdryer to ...
