Tip of the Week


If hair is an important part of your beauty regime, listen up. Ladies don't wash your hair everyday, it takes a toll on your hair and makes it dry. Instead wash it every other day, it will keep your hair soft and moisturized. If your conditioner is weighing your hair down, try this trick. Wash you hair with conditioner first and then shampoo. It will clean your hair and still make it soft and smooth with out weighing it down.

My Top 5 Online Clothing Stores

1. Anthropology – I decided that my number one choice would be Anthropology because they are always updating, showing you new and different ways to put outfits together and besides selling clothes, the also sell really cute things for your home.

2. Shopbop - Shopbop is my second choice because they have the cutest designer clothes at pretty good prices. They have a variety of catalogs to look from and always have a variety of outfit ideas.

3. Urban Outfitters - Urban Outfitters is my third because they update their site just about every day and also have items for your home. They offer books, linens, furniture, décor, and a variety of other things.

4. Free People – Free People is my fourth choice because they update their site almost everyday as well. Some of their clothes are a little more pricey but well worth it. Sometimes they have items for your home.

5. Roxy - Roxy offers a variety of cute clothes but they do not update as often as the other 4. If you want the cutest luggage, Roxy is the way to go.

Tip of the Week


Most women know the basics steps to getting a great tan with sunless tanning lotion but here are some tricks I like to use. After I shave my legs I use sugar, (yup that's right, regular sugar you would bake cookies with) and exfoliate. Exfoliates I have bought from the store are to oily and make streaks on my legs when I use sunless tanner. Sugar is a great exfoliate for your face and body, plus its cheap. Make sure your body is completely dry before you put on the sunless tanner or it will streak. After you use the tanner of your choice and blend in you can use polish remover to remove dark spots. Use a cotton ball with non-acetone nail polish remover. The sunless tanner I like it use is from Bath and Body Works and its True Blue Bronze Bombshell Strike Gold, its a self tanner with bronzer so you can see if its blending and where you need more. I love the color, its not orange at all, its a turns my legs a beautiful bronze color.

CH by Carolina Herrera


Last weekend I was on a mission to find the best smelling perfume, after what seemed like an hour in Bath and Body Works and Victorias Secret, I decided to check out Nordstrom. When I walked into Nordstrom I saw it, a beautiful red bottle by Carolina Herrera. After I smelled the perfume, I knew I wouldn't need to keep looking, this perfume was by far the single best smelling thing I have ever smelled. I couldn't resist spraying it all over my self, unfortunately CH by by Carolina Herrera is pretty pricey but I am saving up for the bottle. I recommend this perfume to anyone who wants to smell amazing.
