Is Your Makeup Too Old?
We may all be guilty of hanging onto makeup a little too long, myself included. I’m sure most of us may even keep products as long as possible, only making the official decision to chuck them when they start to clump, smell, or change color. Unfortunately, by the time your makeup starts to stink, it’s […]
Manicure Monday: Sweet Floral
Happy Manicure Monday! After a great holiday weekend, I’m feeling flirty and floral today. I decided to try to take the difficulty level of my manis up a notch this week – but don’t worry, they’re still totally DIYable. Just like my leopard print manicure, the best part about this nail art is that it doesn’t […]
Manicure Monday: Preppy Blues
My inspiration for this week’s Manicure Monday came from my weekend getaway in Ocean City, Maryland with my boyfriend.

For those of you that know the Jersey […]

Manicure Monday: Flower Power
As dedicated as I am to the tried-and-true manicure, I’m always up for trying something new. This week, that “something new” is Sally Hansen Salon Effects Real Nail Polish Strips. I actually tried them once before, a few months ago, and swore I would never use them again because it took forever for me to […]
Trend Spotting on a Budget
So Women’s Wear Daily is your bible, New York Fashion Week is your Christmas, and fashion is your religion. You eat, sleep, and breathe the latest trends. You never miss a red carpet event – even if you’re just watching it on TV. A lot of women find themselves fascinated by the world of fashion. […]

Be Radiant at Prom!
I remember contemplating my prom makeup like it was yesterday. Cliche? Maybe. True? Definitely. I wanted to coordinate my makeup look with my dress, which isn’t necessarily a bad idea, but it isn’t always the way to go. My advice to all you ladies getting ready for prom (I apologize if your prom already passed!) […]
