I love getting mail, especially when it comes in the form of a package or box, like the Spring 2016 fabfitfun box! I joined the fabfitfun community last fall, and I’ve enjoyed all three of the boxes I’ve received so far. This box, in particular, is in support of “I Am That Girl” (#IAmThatGirl). {*Disclosure: I am a FabFitFun Affiliate, which means if you order from my blog posts, I receive a small commission. #fffaffiliate #fffpartner} So what makes this Spring box so amazing? Well, I’ll give you 10 reasons! 1. Herb Garden by MakersKit {$35} This mini herb garden kit gives […]

Beauty Review: QVC's Christmas Advent Calendar
Just before Thanksgiving, two of my friends and I purchased the QVC Christmas Advent Calendar.

It featured 24 hair, skin, or fragrance products from 21 different beauty brands. It contained sweet little surprises every day! Unbeknownst to the other, we each put on the […]
Friday Favorites: Instagram Bloggers
Instagram is my favorite form of social media, simply because pictures are literally worth a thousand words, or in this case, a thousand #hashtags. Some days I can’t wait to open my Instagram feed just to see what people post. Instagram is a treasure trove of beauty, indulgence, food, fashion, love, and life.

Earlier this summer, when I was off for a couple of weeks recovering from my total hysterectomy, I saw an interview with Cameron Diaz on The Queen Latifa Show. Although she was there to promote her book – The Body Book, her message was simple… “love your amazing body.” Photo Source: Cosmopolitan I thought that by purchasing […]
