A few months ago I blogged about shopping at Sears.  Before then, I would have never thought to shop at Sears for fashionable items because in my mind, it was just a place to go when you needed appliances or things for the home.  Well now that I know better, Sears is on the top…

As the holiday season approaches, it’s time for me to start thinking about all the holiday parties and family gatherings that will soon ensue.  I like to dress nice at these types of gatherings and for me, that usually means wearing either a skirt or dress.  Every year I usually devote a day where I…

I love seeing beautiful nail design, but I totally suck at doing it myself.  I’ve tried in the past, and I always wind up removing the polish because it just never comes out right. Well, the other day I was doing some shopping online and came across a nail polish called Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail…

New York Fashion week kicked off last week.  I have never really paid that much attention to fashion week in the past, I guess mostly because I have never been invited to any of the festivities surrounding fashion week. This year however, things have changed a little.  I was invited to attend a blogger brunch…

Testing Out Makari Skin Care Products
