The European Beauty of Mila Kunis

I’ll admit it… I have a girl crush on Mila Kunis. I think she secured her place on my list when she played the sexy, yet vulnerable, Jamie, the headhunter on Friends with Benefits. Milena “Mila” Markovna Kunis is what I consider a European beauty, not only because she was born in Chernivtsi, Ukraine, but because of her exotic looks. Standing only 5’4″, this pint-sized powerhouse is one seriously sexy woman! Photo Source: GQ And for those who have been living under a rock, she dated Macaulay Culkin for seven years.

The September Issue

Every year, millions of fashionistas (almost all women, and some men) wait patiently for Vogue magazine’s “September Issue”. This year was no different, with the industry’s “fashion Bible” touting “916 pages of spectacular fall fashion for all”! And of course I was one of those millions who purchased the September issue with a certain level of expectation that there would truly be a wide array of “fall fashion for all”, meaning fall fashion that anyone and everyone could afford.

My Review of the September T&C

Last month I expressed my excitement about getting several magazines in the mail. Among those magazines was the September issue of Town & County, which was full of really great articles. One article that popped out at me was in the “Manners & Misdemeanors” column, which this month was written by Ali Wentworth, the beautiful wife of George Stephanopoulos. Her article, entitled “Confessions of a Bag Lady”, was a comical look at the idea of goodie bags, which are given away at charity dinners, book parties, film festivals, etc. Ali states, “A quick primer: A goodie bag is the reward one gets […]
