I don't know a singular woman that secretly doesn't want bigger, voluminous lashes. I'm raising my hand, too. When I was given the opportunity to review Younique 3D Fiber Lashes...I nodded my head emphatically. What real housewife doesn't need a little va va voom regardless if she is sporting yoga pants from 5 o'clock on?!
Read MoreBeing a heels girl, I only whip out flats when absolutely necessary. That said, there are times when heels just won't fit the bill including running after my children and during a day of travel. As NYFW approaches, I'm mentally packing and editing everyday. And, if you know anything about Fashion Week, you know that every fashionable gal needs a pair of chic flats for those long walks as you sweat profusely trying to hail the same taxi that 30 other fashionistas are trying to wave at furiously. Yeah, that means those cab to curb heels need to find a comfy spot in your tote or else you better bring a first aid kit!
Read MoreIt felt like the onset of Fall today. And, I'm ok with it. Generally speaking, by March I want to chuck all my denim out the window and light a match because our winters are soo long. Dare I say that I'm actually getting excited for Fall? Sliding on black denim sort of evoked a little wave of "yeah...where's my leather jacket" in me. Could it be that I am over you, Summer? 'Fraid so. Where's my plaid? Anyone?
Read MoreWhen it comes to summer dresses, I've never met a print I didn't like. Perhaps you could say I'm a little print crazy. Hence when I laid eyes on this maxi with the unique cut-outs - I knew this wasn't going to be the type of maxi dress I'd wear to our weekend Farmer's Market. Rather, this was a fancy maxi. A date night maxi.
Read More101 things i love is five years old. Over a thousand posts. Endless sweet comments. Dozens of new friends. Hundreds of heels. Dozens of red lipstick tubes. I feel lucky to celebrate something I love.
Read MoreI kinda view this outfit as a fashion mullet. It's business on the top and a party on the bottom. In other words, the title of this post has nothing to do with the content. As a matter of fact, my husband came up with it because I have extreme writer's block and it's 10 o'clock at night. One word: exhaustion
Read MoreHey ladiesssszzz! It's sale season which is THE best time to scoop up your favorite summer trends before the leaves fall off the trees. I can tell you with 100% sincerity that I am just adoring everything in this month's Budget Babe but my #1 pick is the boohoo metallic heeled loafer. I first laid eyes on these in May and man, those betches would look so good with a crisp oxford and boyfriend jeans. I'm just sayin'... P/S That Old Navy hem skirt will sell out in minutes, trust! Get it in Polar Bear!
Read MoreImma gonna shoot you straight. I don't look forward to working out. It's hard. It takes an entire internal conversation to force myself into sneakers. Like all of us, when I'm done - I feel fantastic! Before kids I ran 45 minutes daily intermixed with biweekly pilates sessions. Diapers took over my life and I found myself craving that "me" time. That one hour of head-clearing, Jay-Z jamming, heaving sweating, heart pounding, body rockin' toning that only a run outside can offer.
Read MoreNapa was delicious in every way possible. It was our first getaway without the nuggets. Make that our first trip in three years! Note to self: this cannot happen again. We finished conversations, literally went numb with relaxation and interrogated every winemaker/sommelier in the valley...ok, that was just me. But, still...Napa is just one HUGE photo opp waiting to happen so I thought I'd share some of my favorites from the trip. Follow along...
