Cool and Refreshing

So I don’t do the sun. I would rather be cold than hot any day; I’m just over it. I enjoy nice weather but not actually being in the sun for more than 10 minutes at a time. I’m trying not to ruin my family’s fun this Summer with my attitude so I’m eyeing Farmaesthetics […]

Where It’s At: Two Turntables and Some Bubble Bath

One of my favorite places to shop when I’m flush (so like once a year) is Anthropologie. It has a very Paris flea market feel. A really overpriced, touristy Paris flea market for yuppies perhaps. Nonetheless you can find lots of little trinkets and cool bath and beauty products. I first discovered Korres there and have […]

Steals and Deals

I have a debilitating addiction to magazines. I think I may be single-handedly killing the environment with my problem so I thought the least I could do was to share some deals with you. Lucky Magazine always has great breaks on lots of goodies. This month if you go to Saffron Rouge and enter in […]

Seaweed Is My New Best Friend

I have a slightly addictive personality. Okay more than slightly. If I like something then I REALLY like it and I will obsess over it until I’m just so over it I don’t want to hear about it anymore. Healthy? No, but it is what it is. My current addiction is seaweed. Seaweed salad with some […]

Because He’s A College Freshman At Heart

 
My husband is the ultimate gift giver. He puts lots of thought into it and it’s always something I wasn’t expecting or had even forgotten about but REALLY wanted. It’s rarely anything lavish, just really thoughtful. I on the other hand am a horrible gifter. I have every intention of planning ahead but then the […]

John Masters Organics

I got my monthly treat from Saffron Rouge this week and I felt obliged to share it with you. Samples of John Masters Organics Shampoos. I’ve been curious and at the same time apprehensive about trying the line out. What Kirsten says about it:
There are no petroleum-based ingredients, sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene glycol, parabens, or other […]

30 Going on 13

So did anyone else have a heart attack on Friday? Why? Um only because like the greatest band of all time, NKOTB, is back together and they were on the Today show. My morning routine was cut short due to my screams while jumping up and down and singing along to Hangin Tough. If you weren’t then […]

Nurture Your Folicles

I’m kinda obsessive when it comes to my beauty products. Shock, gasp, I know. I will look at the same product about twenty times before I commit to buying it. Most of the time anyway. For the past month I have been looking at Mother Earth’s Hair Conditioning Oil at Love Lula and trying really hard […]

Like Butter Baby

I recently picked up Korres Lip Butter in Pomegranate and I am really loving it. I have been trying to find a great tinted lip balm and I feel like this is it. Well at least for now. You know me, I will be smitten with something else in a few weeks. It is actually moisturizing […]
