Beautiful Things My Mother Taught Me


Mom and me, circa 1979 Disclosure: This post is sponsored by CoverGirl. Mother’s Day is this Sunday and I’m so excited. Not just because Mr. Spoiled Pretty and my son, Westley, are treating me to a decadent brunch. But because it’s an opportunity to celebrate my hero, Andrea Stamps. I must admit that until two years ago, Mother’s Day was just another CONTINUE READING

Bath & Body Works 3-Wick Candles: 2 for $22


At Christmastime, I agonized over what to get my son's daycare teachers. There are 12 of them - and even though he has his two main teachers, they all have interaction with him and take excellent care of him. So I needed to buy 12 gifts to show my appreciation, without breaking the bank. $10 each seemed doable, except CONTINUE READING

IMAN Skin Tone Evener BB Creme SPF 15


As a beauty expert, I’m embarrassed by how late I am to the BB Cream party. In the past year, so many friends and colleagues have asked me about BB Creams—what’s the buzz, which brands are the best, etc. —and they would look at me funny when I admitted to not having tried BB Creams yet. I mean, they CONTINUE READING

CoverGirl Outlast Brilliant Shine Nail Gloss in Vio-last


I’m very fickle about my fingernails. Before I paint my nails or get them professionally did, I spend a inordinate amount of time pondering my polish options. I consider the season, recent trends, my wardrobe that week and anywhere special I might go. But despite all of this planning, I’m usually over my polish choice before it even dries. Not CONTINUE READING

My New Arm Candy: Rebecca Minkoff Swing Bag


After beauty products, handbags are my secondary addiction. But when it comes to arm candy, I have discriminating taste. For me, the perfect handbag seamlessly marries fashion with function, is handcrafted from high-quality materials, has really unique hardware and is classic but edgy - all at the same time. I don't like to carry the of-the-moment "it" bag. I CONTINUE READING

Posted on by daneen in Featured, Gift With Purchase, Shoes | Leave a comment

audrey brooke paris flat Audrey Brooke Paris Flat from DSW   an UpdateWhen I purchased my Audrey Brook Paris Flats from DSW in December, it was love at first sight…and since then, my affection only grows stronger. I’ve worn them almost every day for the past three months because they’re so classic and chic and go with just every outfit imaginable. And they’re super comfortable, like a pair of slippers. But what I adore most is that these $60 shoes are often mistaken for $200 Tory Burch Reva flats. CONTINUE READING

olay beauty by example When Mom Goes Online

Mom joined Facebook? Commenting on all your photos, your friends’ photos, and embarrassing you a bit?  Olay wants to celebrate the relationship between mothers and daughters and the humorous way it plays out on social media networks.  So they enlisted blogger and comedian Eliot Glazer to create a cheeky new video just in time for Mother’s Day,  that highlights the much-discussed, ever evolving relationship between mothers and daughters and the often embarrassing moments that ensue when mom joins your favorite social network.

The video helps support Olay’s effort to recognize one million moms by Mother’s Day through a new digital program, Beauty By Example.

This video is pretty hilarious and sweet…

Shopbop.com is downright dangerous. Just when you’ve convinced yourself to be a frugal fashionista, you start ogling the website’s offerings and every item becomes a need-it-right-now situation. Especially this time of year when I can’t seem to find my summer clothes (I swear there’s a troll hiding in my laundry room that eats my favorite pieces) – or I’m just over absolutely everything in my closet.

There are so many precious little babies on Shopbop that I want to adopt. CONTINUE READING
