Great Moments In A White Bathrobe

Great Moments In A White Bathrobe
The white bathrobe is a classic that never goes out of style.  It just screams fresh, clean and maybe wholesome? One of my favorite moments from Breakfast At Tiffanys, is when Holly surprises "Fred" in his bedroom.  Sorry Truman Copote, I think Audrey was the perfect Holly.

Chanel Eyelash Curler Review

 
Posted by Picasa


I was on the search for a new eyelash curler. I had heard good things about the Chanel curler so I thought I would give it a try.

I have to say this curler does just as fine a job as the Shu Uemura.  No pinching. My lashes stay curled all day long.  I have not lost any lashes after curling like I have in the past.

The curler is black with the Chanel logo. I like it because it is a change from the silver tone curlers of the past.

Delivering beautiful lift and intense curves, the arc shape of the precision eyelash curler fits perfectly against the eyelid, gently and safely sculpting every single lash for optimal natural curl. Includes two silicone refill pads. Featured in the Le Regard Sophistique collection.


The cost is steep.  I purchased at Nordstroms for $34. You get two silicone replacement pads.

Overall I think it is worth the money to get yourself beautifully curled lashes with no pinching.

Organizing Ideas - Cards



I have discovered its easier to keep your holiday/special occasion cards in one space. This box from Kate Spade fits the bill. Its not too big so it does not take too much room.

I like to buy all of my cards in advance so that I always have one on hand. Writing the dates on your calendar in advance also helps you never forget the occasion. Remember to keep some Forever Stamps with your cards.

My New Kate Spade Purse

Picked up this nylon bag at the today Kate Spade sale.  I was looking for a nylon bag I could use during cold damp days.  An added bonus is that its in my favorite print.

What do you think of the Almond Nail Shape?



I have been wearing my nails in a square shape for a long time.  A few weeks ago I decided I was sick of that shape and went to oval.  I love oval as it turns out.
When I was little kid, my mom wore her nails in the almond shape.  For some reason I have been reluctant to go there.  I decided to let my nails grow longer and see how I like it.
It will be fun to see my nails go, “back in time”. 
Have you tried this look?

The Perfect Cowl

Last year I purchased this cowl From The Good Night Day Knits on Etsy.  I love it!  It kept me warm last winter and is so soft.  I also received plenty of compliments.  This is my second purchase from this shop.  If you are looking for something beautiful to keep you warm, look no further.
