The Perfect Shrug

plus size shrug from Lane Bryant

The hottest pieces this summer seem to be sleeveless or cami style dresses and tops. Unfortunately not all of us are comfortable showing off our arms 24/7 or we live and work in an environment where the temperature is constantly changing because of air conditioning inside (and some really do like it colder than...

Sand Gold Sandals

Spring Earrings

green and white earrings for spring from BeadGalDesigns

One of the things I like about Twitter these days is that I get exsposed to so many people creating their own accessories. Like Sarah from Bead Gal Designs who posted these cute spring earrings the other day. They are simple and sweet and the price won’t trash your pocketbook at $10. Check out...

  • A Cut Above
    I love to watch television shows that have extreme transformations like the ones seen on America's Next Top model, when they totally change the look of the model with a haircut or color. I do not however like "makeover" shows or even the term as they suggest that something was wrong with... […]
  • Miss Representation
    The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) has been airing a documentary by Jennifer Siebel Newsom called Miss Representation. The title is an interesting play on words.
