December 1, 2008
“With all the fun, cute, shoes out there, why would anybody put those on her feet?” That was pretty much my reaction a few years ago when I opened a magazine and saw some teen diva sporting Uggs. Of course she was wearing them with short, shorts and layered tank tops, which did nothing for the … [Read more...]
The Holiday Sweater

Yes, you're at the right place! We might look a little different, but we're still the same girlfriends gabbing about fashion and beauty products. Now, first, I have to get something off my chest.

Spanx and Assets
March 27, 2008
I'm new here so I'm not sure if this is allowed but I sure do want to write about Spanx. Spanx are similar to footless pantyhose that smooth down your hiney and legs creating a mirage of a perfect tush under your clothes. It's like wearing super-thin, comfy, tight long underwear.
