I’m in love with the movie Brave and Disney’s Princess Merida, so I thought it was the perfect DIY costume to tackle next in my Disney character dress up series. My first in the series was Cinderella, and Cinderella was fun, but other than figuring out how to get the perfectly large and rolling bun, …
Halloween is coming and writing for Babble has got me thinking in all things Disney so I’ve kind of started this Disney character costume series that I have to admit is SO MUCH FUN! My last in the series, and first ever, was Cinderella, remember? If not, go to Modern Day Cinderella Costume which links …
Football season kicks off this month {yesterday to be exact!} and who doesn’t want to look stylish while supporting their favorite team? Now more than ever, team spirit and fashion go hand in hand, as more and more retailers are offering cute NFL football duds for women. Finally fashion and football collide and we don’t …
I found this Sinful Colors deep teal nail polish recently and it reminded me of a darker version of Chanel’s Azur lacquer so I snatched it up. And I really like it on as well. It’s dark and rich and perfect for fall. I thought I’d add some gemstone accent nails and when I finished …
Sure when we think of blooming flowers and pretty floral designs, the spring and summer months come to mind, but just because the leaves are beginning to turn and the sun is setting a bit earlier, doesn’t mean we have to say goodbye to floral nails and nail art designs.

This pretty gold leafed thank you note with pink cherry blossoms sits on my desk at all times. I just love it. And the other day I looked at it and suddenly wanted to try it on my nails. Now I titled it “inspired” because while in person and up close, they look like cherry …
It’s true I’ve been dressing up as Disney characters since I was an infant due to my mom’s deep admiration of the “Mouse”, but before they were labeled “princesses” I wanted to be every one of Disney’s leading ladies, and of them all, Cinderella was my favorite. I guess I just have a soft spot …

Though I don’t do this beauty routine everyday because, well let’s face it, I work from home and honestly, I’m pretty low maintenance on those days. Now, I wouldn’t say I stay in my pajamas all day, but that’s only because I don’t really wear pajamas. I simply like to refer to my work at …
I am dying to try these all-natural facial cleansing sponges by the Konjac Sponge Company. There are six different Konjac vegetable sponges made with natural konjac fiber or pure vegetable fiber, from the root of the amorphophallus konjac plant. They are apparently one of the softest, most gentle, and effective skin cleansing products you can …
I learned to embrace big hair in my teenage years, and decided after years of trying to tame it, that my hair looked better if I just worked with it instead of against it. And so I also learned to love big hair. Even when sleek hair styles are trending, I have big hair, and …
I’ve been wanting to create a pretty floral nail art manicure for some time now and these two L’Oreal mod 1960′s inspired nail polish colors gave me the inspiration to do so. And I just LOVE IT! Of course, each new nail art manicure I give myself becomes my new favorite and my obsession with …
Chanel makeup, especially face powders and foundations, will forever remind me of my grandma. She wore it until she couldn’t any longer and even then, was laid to rest in a face full of Chanel makeup. Morbid, maybe, but I can’t help thinking that it may have had a little to do with my grandma’s …
When I first finished my nails, I was a little meh about them because they kind of reminded me of a red, white, and blue, Fourth of July mani, but the longer I’ve looked down at them, the more I’ve come to love them. It just so happens that the gray, coral, and white are …
A few months ago I picked up this charcoal gray nail polish color by Sinful Colors at the drugstore, actually named “Ardoise {Night Magic} 1037” and then a few weeks later as part of a Chanel gift set, received the Chanel nail lacquer, ironically named “Vertigo”. And when I looked at them separately I thought …
