I am continuously on the hunt for body moisturizer that will satiate my skins thirst for moisture. Yes, I know I should drink more water, but enough already! I was gifted with Aveeno’s Shea Butter moisturizer a while back and loved it, but couldn’t find it anywhere after I ran through the bottle. Most recently, I was gifted with a huge glass jar of June Jacob’s Age Defying Body Emulsion and I am in love…again! I have a small proclivity
A week’s worth of fashion, faux pas, follies, fabulosity, finds, forgettables, regrettables, and the like…… Loving Leather: Right now any/everything leather is HOT! Make it work for you with a pair of mid-calf leather boots for an uptown chic feel, a leather cuff (pssst we’ll be giving one away this week) for some added edginess, or go all out with an asymmetrical leather bomber. Dress for Your Body: Recognize that not every item was made for you….even if it comes in your
I would love to believe that beauty and fashion are the same, but alas it’s not true. As a matter of fact, while I consider myself to be stylish person, I am painfully aware of the fact that I am makeup-illiterate in comparison to most beauty divas. Sure I have a proclivity toward pretty packaging and great coloring, but that’s it. Well, this week a friend of mine who runs her own beauty blog and is definitely beauty-bountiful, Sondra, featured
I’ve been testing Nude Skincare’s newest product, and I’m in love. Try it!

While in New York for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week activities, one can become overwhelmed with all of the “fashion” and “beauty” and I am no different. I have mentioned previously that eyes can make your face ‘pop’ and it’s the eyelashes that help to make that happen. I even took it so far as to have a well-attended Eyelash party last year so that other ladies could learn the secret to making your face ‘pop’. It occurred to me in NYC
During our time in Cape Town, Johnica and I were given the opportunity to luxuriate at The Spa at Cape Grace– and that we did! While we stayed at The Table Bay Hotel, it was Cape Grace’s recently renovated and upgraded hotel and services that left our mouth agasp and let the hectic pace melt away.
Today while in Cape Town, Johnica and I had the pleasure of partaking in a bit of ‘exhale’ at the Camelot Spa located inside The Table Bay Hotel in Cape Town, South Africa. A large part of being stylish and sophisticated is our ability to feel stylish and sophisticated–what better way (besides a massage and a great workout) than with a facial! The staff was very professional and courteous, and the facial hit the spot. After having spent several hours and
A large part of being stylish and sophisticated is the ability to present your ‘game face’. In this case, your game face comes as a result of taking care of yourself and your body – and that’s what Blueprint just finished doing! While in Cape Town today, Johnica and I were treated to Papaya and Pineapple body scrubs and wraps to moisturize our jetlagged skin! The results were amazing not to mention the service and the entire spa environment! The best
(Guys and gals) Read on — you’re wondering why a style blog is talking about beauty BUT a large part of presenting the ‘best’ you is about presenting your best ‘game face’…..after all, it is the first thing people see when they see you! I consulted with the owner of Skin Beauty Lounge, an upscale spa in the Capitol Hill area of Washington, DC and she had this information to share about how to weatherproof your skin for summer:
