Glow Head to Toe & Red Apple Lipgloss Review

If there are two things in this life that I am addicted to in the beauty realm it is lip gloss and sunless tanner.  I carry no less than four shades of lip gloss in my purse at all times. Those ladies have their own bag within in my bag!  As for the sunless tanner, I use it all year round but I really crank up the use in the warm months.  Right now there are probably six different types in my bathroom alone.  If not, I'm a total Casper with a Chanel mind-set (It was Coco herself who made tanning all the rage, no?) On to this week's reviews of Glow Head to Toe tan towels and Red Apple Lipstick lip gloss. … [Read more...]

Summer’s Lovely Reveal- What I’m Loving Right Now

I sometimes think that summer is best described as a case of white mundane mellowing heat punctuated by icy bouts of excitement.  There are those lazy days where you stay in your pajamas or head to the pool.  The kids roam the neighborhood with friends and popsicles are eaten on a regular basis.  Great books are devoured, binge television happens in air-conditioned basements late into the night and to me, it is a time to get creative and discover new things.  In a lackadaisical way I've been busy brewing with ideas, projects and testing new things.  It's a slow process that only summer can offer and I can't help but embrace it and share. Here's what I'm loving right now.  From workouts to books, things for the home and you, it's all good.  Enjoy! … [Read more...]

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday- Summer Days

We've been having a real laid-back life here lately. It's what we need and what summer is all about. I think that if you can grab that time, then go for it. Since a majority of my time is being spent at swim lessons by the pool or hosting kids at my house, I'm not into layering accessories or wearing a whole lot more than shirts and shorts. This happened- … [Read more...]

Kiss My Face Sunscreen & Rescue Beauty Lounge

I'm a bit crazy about sunscreen. I probably have about fifteen bottles of it in my downstairs bathroom cabinet alone. That doesn't account for the girls bathroom or my own upstairs. I like to review it and I use it everyday, all over. It's like being a safety freak. Did I mention I'm that as well? Totally. This week it is all about Kiss My Face Sunscreen and Face Factor for the face and neck. For fun I added in Rescue Beauty Lounge's newest blogger nail polish, Scrangie 2.0 that I'm digging more and more. … [Read more...]

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday

Just back from a week long vacation spent in the sun, at the pool and on the beach, I have no inspiring outfits to show from the whole trip. It was just me and my bathing suits each day with various pairs of aviator,  Jackie O sunglasses and hats put on for cover.  I may look tan but it is really just one giant freckle glommed together despite SPF slathered on from head to toe. I wore the heck out of that swimsuit! I packed at least two others but found this one just made me happy each time I wore  it.  It wasn't until the second time that I realized it was a yellow polka-dot bikini. Beach day!  We spent a gorgeous day in the ocean until dark clouds approached and soaked us to the skin just before reaching the car.  One of our favorite days away.   Home again, getting … [Read more...]

Yogurt Pops Make for Easy Summer Fun

I will be the first one to tell you that I am so not crafty.  Glitter, beads, yarn and all those little things that make cute creations make me break out into hives. You think I'm kidding. I may like to bake up a batch of cookies or cupcakes and I've been known to make an octopus or ladybug cake but creating recipes and showcasing them on the blog or making holiday-themed crafts. It is so not my thing.  That stuff just stresses me out, man. BUT … [Read more...]

I do it on a regular basis and I like to feel good in what I'm wearing. A few years back it was totally fine for me to just wear the basic black yoga pants and a t-shirt but the more I got into different types of fitness the more I gravitated towards brighter colors and different styles. These days I'm downright colorful. My new loves this summer are the following three pieces. They are fun, fit and wear well and are spot on for summer. … [Read more...]
