Tis the Season For Big Giant Christmas Sales!

 
I hope you all had a super fantastic Christmas – mine was exhausting, but fun.  Im not sure why I was so dang tired last night and this morning, but I guess it is the culmination of months of planning, buying and guilt that comes to a head on Christmas Day.  Plus all that [...]




And Down The Stretch They Come…

Sooooooo, are you ready?  Gifts bought, wrapped?  Groceries purchased?  House ready for people to come?  Yeah, me neither.  I have a to-do list 3 miles long, visiting relatives (hey bro!), and, oh yeah, a full time job to work today and tomorrow.  Thank goodness I at least have Wednesday off!
I have been thinking about [...]




Perricone MD Firming Neck Therapy

Aaaah Nicholas Perricone.  I am a huge fan and have been for a long time.  I dig his science, his books, and I guess I totally dig really everything he does.  I could easily be a total Perricone fan girl if I let myself.  Maybe too late.
  ANYWAY, included in the first edition of [...]




WebSnob: Are You Ready? Edition: December 19, 2008

Well – its almost here.  Are you ready?  I am so not.  I never am ready early.  Hubby is cutting me off of spending, but yet, there is much more to be done.  Oy.  Best to sit back with some coffee and check out the best of the beauty and fashion web from my [...]




Nanotechnology Poll Results + New Poll: Gift Certificates

I thought the results of this poll about nanotechnology in beauty products, while low in quantity, were pretty interesting:

I was one of the whopping 2 people that voted Yes! on that poll.  I suspect I will probably die young with some dreadful disease brought on by something that I wasn’t too chicken to guinea [...]




Smashbox Rapture Holiday 08 Ultimate Beauty Palette

I read about this palette a month or so ago on one of the beauty forums that I regularly lurk around on – and I knew I had to have it.  I attempted to order it online, but it was sold out.  Boo.  On my subsequent trip to Ulta – behold – there it was, [...]

Smoking Everywhere E-Cigarette

Update - May 2011: I quit smoking cigarettes in September 2010. I am now in the process of starting up a new venture, selling what I know to be the best e-cigarette in the world: The Joye eGo. We are also carrying the 510, another quality e-cigarette made by Joyetech. [...]

Chandra North’s modeling career peaked in the 90’s – today she is back home in Dallas, picking and choosing modeling jobs and being a mostly stay at home mom. 
Fashion!Dallas, who incidentally gave her her very first modeling job in the early 80’s, touched base with Chandra and along with a great article, included [...]




HUGE Sale at Figleaves

If you have been reading my babblings for a while, you know that Figleaves is my favorite place to shop for undies and lingerie – bar none.  I love their search capabilities, and their huge selection of bras in other than a 34 B.  I am SO not a 34 B.  But I’m not [...]
