Do Graphic T-shit slogans go to far?

I found it really interesting to learn this week that JC Penny yanked a graphic t-shirt off its website after public outrage that it sent out the wrong message.

They … Continue reading Do Graphic T-shit slogans go to far?

Leopard print does have a sexy allure to it, and you … Continue reading End of Summer Hottest Trend – Leopard Print

Sephora by OPI Cherry Blossom Nail Design

This post was actually a family affair. My sister re-created the OPI Cherry Blossom Nail Design originally curated by nail-artist Sophy Robson, and my mom was our hand model. Sephora recommends that you use the color Havana Dreams for this look, but we tried Natural Environ-Mint ($9.50), which is a very similar pale-blue color, and it worked perfectly! Havana Dreams is just slightly darker and is … Continue reading Sephora by OPI Cherry Blossom Nail Design
