sunday - golden globes

Ah, the start of awards season, I am just too excited for the Golden Globes.  I know that many of my favorite celebs and style icons will look ravishing tonight.  I especially can't wait to see Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman, Mila Kunis and the girls of Glee.

As a tribute, I am going to give you a glance back at some of my favorite GG styles.

{Kate Winslet}

{Olivia Wilde}

{Reese Witherspoon, loving the sequins}

As we look back at some of my favorite looks from the past few years, here is to hoping my favorite celebs do not end up on my "Why the heck did you not hire Rachel Zoe??" list.  I hope you enjoy watching the GG as much as I do.  I can't wait to sit down, sip champagne and eye the latest red carpet looks.

In the words of my fave Rachel Zoe, "I die" for these gloves:

And this belt:

And this top:

If anyone is feeling generous, you can find these items at J.Crew.  I have the perfect spot for them in my closet and have already envisioned how FAB they will look with many of my outfits.

Besides People, Perez, Facebook and my blog, my other favorite website is Sephora.  I could spend hours scrolling through all the products and adding them to my cart without even thinking.  A problem does occur when I go to check out, as I usually have around $700 worth of product in my cart. (Hey, I get free shipping and free samples)

Since I do have a product addiction, I knew that I needed to find help quick.  I tried to find a Beauty Product Anonymous group at my local community center, but was unsuccessful. 

Insert a new brilliant business I just started, I will sell products and get to talk about them.  OMG, dying.  I love to talk and love products, so why not combine them?

So I decided to partner with Rodan + Fields Dermatologists (the ones behind Proactiv) to market their new business and line that deals with all skin problems.  Let me show you what my skin looked like before I started using my R+F products:

And then after:

Woo Hoo!  I have found something to make my skin red carpet ready everyday.  Check out the Today Show, where my new company was featured as THE skin care product to have in 2011.  So, you want to have celeb skin this new year - comment below with your email and I will let you know how.  Or, just send me an email.  {Ok, this is the end of my shameless plug...but I am excited about my new job and you can be a part of this amazing company too!}

Growing up with a sister, we never had a gaming system in our house.  Oh, we had enough Barbies and American Girl Dolls to go around, but never a Sega or Nintendo 64.

{Of course, I had Molly, though she spelled her name the wrong way}

One Christmas I asked for a Sega.  All I wanted to do was to play The Lion King game and to get past level one.  My neighbor had this game, and I loved playing it every time I went to her house.  Well Santa decided to get me a bike that year for Christmas.  Though I was disapointed that I never had the chance to make it to level two, I am very thankful that Santa was smart enough to give me a bike so I would get outdoors and play and not become obese.

With that being said, I now am a part owner of a new XBox.  It is an exciting new addition to my abode, but there is one slight problem - I don't know how to use gaming systems.  Yes, it is true, in an age where technology is taking over our lives, I don't know how to use the XBox.  Luckily I am also the part owner of a Kinect - the crazy new addition where your body serves as the controller.  Now, this is something I can learn how to do.

As many of you know, I have an affinity for celebrities.  It may be unhealthy, but we are not here to worry about that today.  The one thing that I am ecstatic to see is that both Suri Cruise and Maddox Jolie Pitt have been spotted wearing faux fur coats.  OMGee.  I need to go and adopt a small child to dress them in this adorable coat.

Friday

As I was surfing around the web the other day, I stumbled upon an amazing blog, The Man Repeller.  The author takes high fashion looks that are not attractive to men, thus known as "man repellers".

Scrolling through the blog, I was almost on the floor because I was laughing so hard at the writer's antics in finding man repelling objects in her closet.  However, my laughter faded when I looked back at some of my older fashion choices.

OMG, I have been a repeat "man repeller" offender.  After looking at ridiculous fashions, I always thought I could pull off anything, even if it did include crazy prints, leggings as pants, or multi-colored headbands.  My life partner even tells a story about one of our first outings.  He recalls that I was wearing this crazy pink 80's inspired outfit.  Of course, I deny it as he was listing items that I have never had in my wardrobe.  But after looking at this website, I probably was trying to be "hip" for a lunch meeting, but in fact, was really "man repelling".

Stay tuned as I try on some "man repelling" items in my closet today and see what the males in my life think of these fashion choices.

And I leave you with two choices that are reflected by my blog title, from my favorite fashion line Tibi.  I can't wait till my new skin care business becomes lucrative and I can buy each piece, even if they are considered "man repellers".
