I don't know about you ladies, but I love a good shopping excursion that does not require me to leave the comfort of home. For years, I have patronized clothing catalogs and online retailers and you already know I rarely pay full price for anything so finding a site that combines both is a double win! Ultimate Outlet is an online retailer that sells clothing from two of my favorite shops - Newport News and Spiegel (my mom used to live for … [Read more...]
Firmoo Review: Trendy & Cheap Prescription Glasses
March 21, 2013 by · 8 Comments
Today's post is not hair related at all but something I think will be beneficial to you nonetheless! As you may have noted, I wear corrective lenses and have been wearing glasses more often lately. I own several frames in different colors and styles so there is always a pair available to match my outfit or mood. In addition, I must keep a pair in the car just in case while out something happens to one of my contact lenses - I absolutely … [Read more...]

I posted a video a while back about my purchases from Shoe Dazzle and explained how much I love this service.

However, a deal became available from Groupon (a … [Read more...]

I used to have a magazine addiction, dating way back to middle school when I subscribed to Right On! and Seventeen.
