Hit or Miss?

Hit or Miss?

As most of America does, well the female population anyway, I watched the SAG Awards last night to check out the fashion. I have to say I was highly impressed by some while I was disappointed by others. One of my faves of the night was Claire Danes. I loved how put together she looked and her lipstick being and homage to the 90s when we all fell in love with her. Sadly I heard people saying it was a miss. What say you? Hit or Miss?

Gift Card Spending/Michael Kors Love

Gift Card Spending/Michael Kor..

Let’s face it, we all do it. We get a gift card as a gift, for Christmas or our birthday or if  you’re lucky enough just because, and we immediately need to spend it. I admit it, I’m guilty of it. Sometimes that little piece of plastic burns a hole in your pocket that it just has to be done. But is it worth it to spend it so quickly if it isn’t something you need(i.e. shampoo, make-up replacement, et al.) or something that you will use more then once? I know the sales drag us in time and time […]
