Longer, Fuller Lashes... yours, of course!


Latisse Eyelash Conditioner
Price: $125.00/unit OR
Buy 2, Get 1 Free ($98.33/unit)

Not talking false lashes, although I love them.

You don't need a prescription to purchase Latisse- if you were planning on testing out this product on yourself.

The FDA and their spokesperson, Brooke Shields seems to be behind the product. And although I know this isn't a new product, I'm talking (well, blogging...) about it because I've watched YouTube reviews and read on comparable products, such as: Lipocils, and some claims of "it not working" vs. "it working", and the average practical customer would want to save money and test out the cheaper brand ($40 compared to $100, come on now!)

BUT from my sources, I seem to read more positive feedback for Latisse being a higher rate of positive results.

Latisse and others say you need a prescription. Well, Latisse is available online to anyone, AND if you buy 2, you get 1 free... I think I just might try this baby!

Introducing ShopStyle (... if you didn't already know)

Nancy Gonzalez at ShopStyle



More often, I will be posting these Looks. ShopStyle is my one-stop shop portal, and my absolute favorite so far. My favorite shop-sites: ArdenB, Nordstrom, Free People, to name a few are all jumbled up and their products are conveniently on this site. And there is a community of fashion-lovers that put Looks together for you to rate, shop and get ideas. I simply love this site and I hope you do too.

I'll still be posting my favorites on here, along with links and buying info, but Join ShopStyle; it's so fun!

A touch of Vintage for the cost of a cup of joe

(shown: Tropical Lady)
(shown: Vintage Lady)

(shown: Wooden II)


(shown: Wooden I)

Forever21.com
These rings are only $5.80 each!
Totally femme, romantic, antique- inspired accessories. I took home 'Wooden II' and 'Vintage Lady.' They're so pretty and a conversation-starter for the romantic eye that notices them!

Unfortunately, the only two styles left online are 'Tropical Lady' and 'Wooden I.' BUT, my sister informed me that all 4 are available in-stores. Go get yours while they still have them! They're timeless little wooden treasures.

love21 to launch on the 19th

It Looks like Forever21 is continuing its expansion. With Faith21 (Plus size) newly opened on the site and select branches in the Los Angeles area, love21 is Forever21's new take on "sophisticated style, at a price you can't pass up." This is scheduled to launch on May 19th (just around the corner, at exactly a week away from today!)


I'm expecting to see clothing appropriate for a baby shower, wedding and possibly office work-related attire. When they mention the word "sophisticate", I think "older."


Drawing attention to the curvaceous woman was one step, now Forever21 may be attempting to draw the more above 30 crowd. I don't blame them-- this is what women want. And we're not getting any younger!

Easy Click-It Nail Polish!




Color Quick Fast Dry Nail Color Pen
Color: Sand Shimmer by Sally Hansen
Price: $7.79

"Description: Get an on-the-go manicure in minutes with the Quick Color Fast Dry
Nail Color Pen by Sally Hansen. Buy 2, get 1 FREE - Add 3 items to bag to qualify "

It was my little exploring daughter that was interested in this item during a trip to Ulta. She is barely into makeup, nail polish, etc. But I did allow her to buy this product, and without knowing it when I purchased it, it would be one of my favorite items!


It's easier to use than a traditional nail polish brush and you don't have to worry about spills or a big mess. It's so easy to use. You just click the pen to let out a few drops of polish to seep through to the brush on the end, and you can start painting away. Of course, there's a cover to keep it from drying out! It's good for on-the-go people, especially moms, and great for touching up. It's made my at-home pedicures much more enjoyable, worry-free and quick!


Since I pulled this up from online, don't feel limited to this brand or this color! There are more colors and about 2-3 more brands to choose from if you go to the store in person!

Faith 21 Has Spoken!

Pleated Silky Dress
Price: $24.80
(Also comes in Blue!)


"Faith 21 - A beautiful sleeveless silky knit dress featuring a crossover
v-neckline, an attached waist tie, and a pleated skirt with an unfinished
raw-edge hem."

I'm very excited to announce that Forever21 has launched Faith21- a Plus-size department for their voluptuous and curvaceous audience. I'm so happy that they have responded to a mass of customer requests and finally gave us what we wanted!




Personally, in some Forever21 dresses, I can be a medium, or a large. In most tops, (because I am 34DD busty), a larger fit would do me justice and I do not want to squeeze into size Large tops when I clearly look like I need a size bigger!




This is great for women! So far, I think the Faith21 launch is being tested in LA locations, and will soon spread throughout other branches, BUT Faith21 is now and will always be available to Shop Online! So go check it out!!
