The Underwear Confession



Ok, I have a confession to make...

I just recently threw away underwear I've had for over 10 years. Thought it was just guys who kept their old, worn out underwear with holes in them? Nope. I'm guilty as charged.

To stay in line with my goal of finding sexy underwear, I decided it was time to part with the old to make room for the new. After all, I'm in a relationship with a man who still finds me attractive after 15 years, so I have to keep that passion alive. And since men are more enticed visually than any other sense, the investment in fancy underwear is a must. Even if you don't have a special guy in your life to see the underwear, you can still feel sassy and confident all over.

3 Amazingly Easy and Cute Summer Hair Styles



The time has come yet again to store away our winter wardrobes and break out the bathing suits and shorts. With summer right around the corner, you’ll most likely want to spend more time outside enjoying your day and less time inside getting ready for it. Whether you’re relaxing on the beach, grabbing drinks at a local bar, enjoying a nice dinner out, or dancing the night away at a concert, these featured hairstyles will serve you well all summer long.

Light Waves

If you choose to rock only one hairstyle this summer, this should be it. These waves are perfect for any time of the day or night, and go great with both casual and dressy outfits. This look works with any hair length and requires very little prep time (which is always a plus)!

Channeling Carrie Bradshaw



If you weren't living under a rock during the 90's, you may recall the show that popularized Manolo Blahniks and put Sarah Jessica Parker on the map for fashion eternity. However, despite all the fabulous clothing and accessories that SJP's character, Carrie Bradshaw, wore during all those episodes of Sex and the City, there's only one fashion item that I will remember her for: The gold name necklace.

I don't know why that necklace stood out, but I wanted one too. And now I do...

5 Cute iPhone Cases For the Stylish Fashionista

Trying on an outfit in Target

The mobile phone has become a staple in the handbags of fashionistas and fashion bloggers. I often try to remember what we did before mobile phones. Without them, how could we easily take a picture of our outfits and quickly post and share it with our social networks? What would our world be like without the obligatory self-portrait taken in the bathroom or dressing room after trying on a cute outfit?

What I Love Right Now: "Jasper" by butter LONDON

"Jasper" By BUTTER London

I've never been into yellow anything - until now. "Jasper" by butter LONDON ($15) has put me in a sunshine-y mood, and for once I'm looking forward to summer. Well, kind of looking forward to summer.

What I am definitely looking forward to, though, is using this mellow yellow color in a variety of easy nail art designs. So far I've done bright stripes and polka dots...

The Life of the Arm Party

Arm party

If you have been hibernating in a cave somewhere for the past couple years, there's a huge party going on in the fashion world. It's called the "arm party." Well, actually, there are a ton of “parties” going on, and you are invited too. Just do a search for #armparty on Twitter, Instagram, or Tumblr and you’ll discover a whole lot of partying going on!

Throw on a few bracelets and voila - you've just created a party on your arm. You can mix it up with one more thing, which I consider the life of the party: A stylish watch.
