Ladies and Gents, there are now band-aids for the new iPhone!
It obviously started out as a joke but now it’s they’re actually being sold to customers!
These band-aids are helping the reception problem and people are buying them like crazy.
Kudos to the creators of this “fix”.

Now my question to you is, are you buying a band-aid for your iPhone 4 or are you going to use the case from Mr. Jobs?

They’re classic, vintage and they’re totally tres cute!
I know hats aren’t meant for everyone, but you should at least give Fedoras a try.
Fedoras can be worn by both men and women. Back in the day, they were only worn by the guys but now, times have changed and the ladies are rocking the fedoras.
I personally LOVE hats and need to try on a fedora soon. Not sure what I’m waiting for!

Here are some I found online that you might like!

Other things that are tres hot now =)

blazers – where it to work and then out for drinks with friends! Just pair it with jeans and the right accessories and you’re set for a night out.

vests – again, something that you can transition from day to night!

jean leggings – my personal opinion – not for work but definitely fun to wear outside of work!

Two great summer scents

Bright Crystal by Versace
Envy Me by Gucci

Unlike most girls I know, I’m not a “vanilla” fan. I prefer light scents that can be described as floral or clean. While I can appreciate more “woodsy” and “mature” scents, I really like perfumes that make me feel flirty, girly and sexy.
That being said, I have fallen head over heel for Bright Crystal by Versace and Envy Me by Gucci.
The last time I received as many compliments on how I smelled, was when I made Estee Lauders “Pleasures” my signature scent over 5 years ago.
The bottles for both these perfumes are “tres cute” as well. I get a sense of satisfaction seeing them on my dresser. Call me silly, but I appreciate creative and pretty packaging.
These two scents can be described as fresh, foral, and fun. Everything that summer should be!
The only “downer” to Envy Me is that it doesn’t linger as long as I’d like, but it would be perfect to wear on a date.
I would also warn you not to over do “Bright Crystal” It may be floral, but it is strong, and you don’t need more then two sprits to be noticed.
I highly encourage you head down to your local perfume counter and sample these two scents. I can guarantee you will fall in love with one, or both!

Yes, most of know the importance of protecting our skin from the sun, but when it comes to protecting our eyes, some people forget.
Wearing the right sunglasses is a key way to not only look good but also to helping you see better on a sunny day.
I don’t know about you, but driving without sunglasses is bad news for me. The sun can hurt your eyes, cause blind spots and could cause an accident if you’re not careful.

There are lots of great designers out there that make hot shades, but my fav (at the moment) is Maui Jim.
I bought a pair of his polarized sunglasses in the spring and it was one of the best purchases I’ve made.
Polarized lenses give the ultimate in sun protection for your eyes. Maui Jim was the first to do polarized lenses and they do it well.

I do own other designer sunglasses that I adore but my new favorite is Maui Jims.
Don’t worry Ray Ban and Gucci – I still love you too.

Time to give props again to Lancome!
Last time I wrote about them, I was telling you about their Oscillation Mascara.
Today, it’s about the eyes again but this time it’s their eyeshadow!

This is my favorite eyeshadow compact at the moment!
It’s called Color Design and it’s being sold for a limited time.

These colors are great for the summer (and all year round too).
So what are you waiting for?
Go online or to your nearest Lancome counter and buy Lancome’s Color Design

Haven’t done one of my website shout outs in a while.
I need to do this more regularly!

A big shout out goes out to… drum roll please.

Groupon.com hooks users up with really great deals.
I just bought a groupon (coupon) and saved lots of money!
It gets better – if you refer people and they buy a groupon, groupon will give you $10.
What goes around comes around I guess.

I’m loving Alex and Ani bracelets!
They’re eco-friendly and super stylish. I have a small wrist and sometimes it’s hard to find a bracelet that fits right – NOT a problem with Alex and Ani’s bracelets! You can adjust the size so that it can fit on you. – - – PERFECT

I started my collection with 4 bracelets and plan on building to it. I went with a mother of pearl bracelet with 3 variations of russian gold bracelets. What’s cool is that you can buy a set of bracelets or you can buy individual bracelets and create your own custom set.

Their website is great too because you can design your set right online!

When it comes to killing your hair by over processing it, I’m the Queen. I’ve taken my dark brown, corkscrew curls, and transformed them to golden brown and blond straight tresses.

I’ve battled my genes in a quest to get looks fitting of any modern magazine. Fine and curly, meets hot and ceramic, my flat iron wins every time.

I finally after 4 yrs of coloring, I decided to go back to brown, and give my hair such much needed R&R. While coloring it darker helped restore some shine, I needed more.

I came across Ojon® oil at a local Ulta, and decided to give it a try.

While the price made me balk ($20 for the smallest jar, $50 for something barely double the size) I was desperate for something to help restore moisture to my badly parched locks.

Ojon® oil is highly-concentrated hair and scalp treatment, Ojon® claims to hydrates dry, damaged hair.

I took my little jar home in hopes of a miracle. I measured out the specified amount and slathering it on my very dry hair. I put a shower cap on and went to bed (taking extra precaution by putting a towel on my pillow case)

The next morning I showered, and washed my hair (using my normal shampoo and conditioner) Now the test, would my hair look any better when I tried to straighten it?

45 mins later SUCCESS. My hair looked shiner and was visibly smoother. My fly always diminished and there was a healthier look to it as well.

I recommend this product to other process-aholics. I would suggest buying the smallest jar, and giving it a try. At the very least it restores shine, and at the most it disguises some of the damage that comes with passionately owning styling tools

It’s summer time! Time for BBQs, sailing, going to the beach, vacations, etc.
Many of us remember to protect our skin from the sun by using lotions with SPF and many of us forget to protect our scalp.
I don’t know about you, but I hate when my scalp gets burnt from the sun. It hurts. A lot.

Recently, I bought an O’Neill hat (I got mine at Dicks Sporting Goods store).
Brought it on vacation with me and it was a wise decision. Not only did my scalp not get burnt, it also helped my face from burning too.
Oh, and it’s super cute on. I got tons of compliments.
