Beauty And The Best

Beauty And The Best

We all know that inner beauty is what counts. But that doesn’t mean outer beauty isn’t fun to play with. When it comes to beauty products, I have a handful of favorites that I’ve weeded out of the ba-jillions out there. I’m a big fan of good smells, tingles, convenience and miracles (!) and the [...]

My Fashion Picks for Fall

My Fashion Picks for Fall

A college classmate of mine and all around awesome gal, Liz Powers writes about style and “everything that makes life fun” over at her blog, Pink Monkey.

This week I was lucky enough to be asked to write a guest post sharing some of my favorite items for fall. It was fun to do some simulated [...]

The Style + Sustainability Issue

The Style + Sustainability Issue

Our styles are as unique to us as our fingerprints. But our styles, like our priorities, change as we grow (otherwise I’d still be wearing scrunchies and French-rolling my stonewashed jeans). Lately, headbands have become my signature accessory. This is due more to a bad haircut than a conscious choice, but I’m rolling with it. [...]

For the Love of Shoes

For the Love of Shoes

When Cinderella left her glass slipper outside the ball, it led to a magical romance with Prince Charming. When 32-year-old Georgia resident Ann Roth broke her dance shoe in a play, it led to a fulfilling career in shoemaking. Like the classic fairytale, Roth’s story is the fantasy of many women, women who only dream [...]

natural woman: my green makeover

natural woman: my green makeover

I’ve been easing my way into becoming more green in my day-to-day life. I try to be conscious about my environmental impact by making small changes here and there—I recycle as often and as much as I can, I’m getting the hang of turning off the water when I brush my teeth, and I print [...]

On the Sensitive Side: Soak delicate wash

On the Sensitive Side: Soak delicate wash

I have very sensitive skin. Once, upon moving in with a new roommate, I broke out into hives. I freaked out, thinking I was allergic to our duplex (or worse, allergic to her) but it turns out it was her Tide detergent that I’d borrowed. I usually go with All Free & Clear for the [...]

Getting that glow.

Getting that glow.

“Oh my gosh, you’re simply glowing!” I always hear people saying this to pregnant women. And from what I’d heard pre-pregnancy (which turned out to be nowhere near the tip of the gestational iceberg) my nails would get stronger, my hair would get shinier, and my skin would radiate with mom-to-be-ness.
Thanks to the prenatal vitamins, [...]

Shoes, glorious shoes.

Shoes, glorious shoes.

I never pass up an opportunity to share a great find with my friends (unless it’s a limited edition and I need to beat you to the punch). But when it comes to Zoe & Zac, the new line of shoes at Payless, I feel safe in saying that there are plenty of pairs to [...]

Unmentionables worth mentioning.

Unmentionables worth mentioning.

I’m all about comfort and convenience, so when I heard about Flingz, a line of thongs for women on-the-go, I knew I had to try them out. They’re made almost completely from all-natural cotton (95%) and the packaging is recyclable, so you don’t have the throw-away guilt that goes along with so many “convenient” products.
