Hot Beauty Buys: Sephora Shows Off Their Best Buy Picks!
November 17, 2011 | 
Author I love Sephora. Goodness knows I spend enough time and money online and in the store. I love it for what it has and I love that sometimes it’s so overwhelming that I cannot buy anything– because either it’s everything or nothing. The selection is too overwhelming!
Here’s a video from Sephora– it’s just about a month old but the products still are HOT– and will be hot throughout the holiday season. Here’s the video and the links with my comments since I have tried most of them.
Holiday Glam: Start Eating Your Way to Being Healthy & Gorgeous with Paleta!!
The holidays are on their way. It started with Halloween– eating all that candy. I personally didn’t buy any but wound up at a restaurant that night where they had halloween buckets full of (you guessed it) candy. While I sipped hot tea and waited for my appetizer based dinner, I scarfed down a couple of favorites from the bucket and finally said “enough!, no more!”. Heck it’s not good for you and I wanted to eat my dinner.

Get Into Fall Fashion Groove with Banana Republic!!
You don’t often see me talk about mass brands of clothing on this blog. I might feature bits and pieces or a denim line or a specific few pieces of a collection (a la Missioni that is no longer here and I no longer want to see it or have it). But talking about an entire store — like Banana Republic, The Gap and JCrew — isn’t often on my radar. Why? Partly because I find that the last few years the trends have been so repetitive and boring both in texture, presentation and color that I couldn’t cover what was in specific stores. I could find pieces of a look, but not an entire look in one store (whether it was Saks, Nordstroms, Mango or JCrew).

Bobbi Brown Talks Her Fall 2011 Collection & Her Inspiration
Just like the changes I am seeing in various stores and collections, I am seeing a shift in the mainstream beauty brands– thank heavens!! Bobbi Brown (and Bobbi Brown Cosmetics) has been slowly making that shift but how amazing is it that you can see Bobbi Brown talking about bold colors and not just neutrals; featuring glittery lip gloss and not just subtle shimmers.
