Save the Day

Hi Dolls!

I went out shopping this afternoon and managed to pick up a few goodies. I went to Bath and Body Works and picked up the Aromatherapy lotions Sensual Blackcurrent and Vanilla and Stress relieving eucalyptus Spearmint. They smell devine! The Spearmint will definitely open up your airways that's for sure and the blackcurrent helps strike the mood ;) or soooo the bottle says (hehe). Anywho, I also picked up one of their new fragrances called Country Chic (Chick or Sheek is debatable on pronunciations.) Then, I mozied over to Wal-Mart to pick up some Tresemme Heat Tamer and Coconut Milk Anti Breakage Hair Serum. The Heat Tamer I see used by everyone on YouTube and they absolutely swear by it so I'm gonna make a bold switch from my CHI heat protectant and try this out for once. The Coconut milk nourishes hair while the other ingredients (egg whites, shae butter, and coconut oil) add strength and hydration. I have also heard alot of good things about this too so were gonna see and I will keep you guys updated! I did buy clothes and a few pairs of shoes but that haul will be saved for another day!


 Now for a sweet story, While leaving, I ran into a bit of trouble. My car wouldn't start! The wires that connect the fuse box to the battery came out! I was stranded.. Then, along came a very hunky Army Soldier to help me out. He then proceeded to explain what the problem was and told me how it could be fixed. Then drove me across the road to buy a new wire and he spent an hour fixing it for me =) Needless to say, he got my number and I owe him dinner. Wonderful end to a Monday wouldn't you say?!

Bad Hair Day

Vitamins, shampoos, heat bans... why aren't they working!?

My hair refuses to grow.. I have tried everything I can think of and quite frankly, we have a very strong love/hate relationship...  I watched a few YouTube videos today on "tips to make your hair grow." In every one of them, the following was listed: Heat ban came in at #1.. (ha, with my Foxy in Goldmember frizzy hair.. I don't think so) drinking lots of water followed closely in 2nd (I have about 8 bottles a day, A DAY!) and a nice trim every 6-8 weeks. Well, at the rate my hair grows, if I trimmed it every 6-8 weeks, I'd be bald. I have tried vitamins too. Been taking Biotin for about a year.. Still nothing. My hair has grown 2 inches since last august. Anywho, the reason for my post is basically just to rant about my hate more than love relationship with my hair and share this awesome song im currently listening to. =)
I first heard Mumford and Sons on my trip to Seattle.  Absolutely Fantastic..

[ Insert Topic Here ]

When I created this blog, it's intended purpose was to give my opinion and perspective of all things beauty and fashion. As I look back, I have come to the realization that, as I do have a fond love for fashion, writing about it is just not my forte.  I always dreamed of being a big magazine editor in New York. "You watch to many movies," all of my "supporters" would tell me. "You shouldn't belittle yourself pumpkin, your going to med school!" My dad would say. Well, sorry Dad, getting pregnant at a young age demolished all my hopes and dreams of starring out of the window on the 23rd floor of a skyrise with an awesome view and my name on a gold plaque, as well as your hopes of me being Dr. Tiffany. Now, as I sit here, starring starry-eyed over other well accomplished Youtubers, Tweeters, and Bloggers, I realize I am not them, nor will I ever be them, no matter how hard I try. As far as I'll go, im sure, is my desk in my manager position at an insurance agency. A job that I loathe, because of the mere fact that it is not me in any fashion, and stuck here, in this place that has been dubbed "the circle of hell" by all who come through. My life right now can be summed up pretty easily, stuck, like a rock on the side of a riverbed. Oh, I got distracted, anywho, the point of this blog is to reiterate my plans for it. It won't be about any ONE thing in particular. I believe a great blog is made up of a variety of topics. It would get boring after a while, wouldn't you say? If I just so happen to run to the store and buy a makeup product, I may just so happen to do a review on it. If I read a good book (Pride and Prejudice at the moment) then I may just so happen do a review on that subject. Or, if I feel giddy and decide to make up something totally random to entice you lovely readers, I may just do that. Now, to bid you farewell for the night and leave you with a music video =) Enjoy!
