Game Time! Game On!

My daughter turns 3 on Tuesday.  Oh, how it pains me to say that.  When we were deciding on a date for her birthday party, we decided on Sunday January 31st.  Why?  Well, because February 7th, the week after her birthday, had a slight conflict.  We didn’t dare place it during that weekend – just in case. Our little football team –... [Read more of this review]

Girlfriend Getaway with Holiday Inn

Have you ever stayed at a Holiday Inn?  As a frequent traveler, I have had the opportunity to stay at quite a few of them.  They are typically reasonably priced and they are really in almost every location you could ever want to stay at.  Of course, when I’m booking my own hotel, my qualifiers are typically clean, safe, and comfy.  If it’s... [Read more of this review]

Mystic Tan. To Spray or Not To Spray.

Ok, I know I’m supposed to be the expert here, but I need a little help.  I have this Mardi Gras Ball coming up very soon, and well, my skin is so pale that you can practically see through it.  I plan to wear a strapless dress.  It’s a grey dress which won’t do much against my vampire-like skin. I’m a big fan of how I look... [Read more of this review]

The Post Where I Discuss Lingerie. (Sorry, Dad.)

If you’ve read anything that I’ve written, especially over the past year, you know that I love fashion and style.  I love getting dressed up, feeling confident in what I’m wearing and how I’m wearing it, and helping other women to feel the same way.  My mantra is that “no one can take their eyes off of a confident woman.” Think... [Read more of this review]

More Bubbles and Bubbly Fun

So remember how, back in October, Wisk HE brought me to my second home, New York City, for a little bubbles and bubbly shindig?  I had a blast with some amazing people and learned all about bubbles- when you need them, when you don’t. So, today I’m on Google, searching for pictures of myself and my friend Katja for this way cool NYC Tweetup... [Read more of this review]

Update Your Winter Wardrobe (AKA – Look Christy, You’re Internet Famous!)

I have awesome friends.  I’m not sure why, but they keep coming back for more.  They put up with my fickle phone skills and know-it-all personality for reasons I have yet to determine.  Of course, this makes them all the more awesome.  When my longtime friend Christy told me at brunch the other day that she was going shopping to update her... [Read more of this review]

Spring 2010 Trends: Go Red

Red.  It conjures up all sorts of images, doesn’t it?  Power.  Anger.  Rage.  Love.  Red is sexy, alluring, bold – it pulls people in and announces, in no uncertain terms, that you are unafraid of confrontation.  Or of power, anger, rage, or even love, for that matter. I know the new year has only just begun, but I thought I’d... [Read more of this review]

Haikus Are Easy

Oh man.  I tweeted about this shirt earlier today because I love it so much, but I felt it deserved it’s own post. Haikus are easy But sometimes they don’t make sense Refrigerator * * * I’m not a big fan of t-shirts in general (I think they look sloppy) but this Haiku shirt makes me laugh so hard that I might consider it.  Ok, I... [Read more of this review]

Makeup Must: Foundation Brush

You’ve heard it before – you get what you pay for.  The savvy people of the world know that it is only mostly true – there are certainly things that aren’t worth the money or investment, but then there are, of course, lots of things that are.  Here is where I cut to the chase and tell you that a foundation brush is one of those... [Read more of this review]

2009 Holiday Guide: Gifts For Mom

I sat next to a gentleman when I was on a plane on my way to Womma last month who was fascinated by my arsenal of beauty and fashion magazines.  He was the smart engineering-type, so lest he think I was the most vapid human being he had ever met (clearly I’m in the top 5, but certainly not number one), I offered him a little information about... [Read more of this review]
