Sorry to offend anyone, but there is nothing that irks me more on All Hallow’s Eve than sexy cop/kitten/nurse/devil/bumble bee/etc. costumes straight out of a bag from the pop-up Halloween shop. Don’t get me wrong–I understand the desire to look sexy on the one night of the year when it’s completely acceptable to look like … Read more
Attention all my soul sisters (and brothers) who want to be skinny without ever sacrificing booze! It’s time for another LCVC (low-cal vodka cocktail)! (Speaking of, is it 5:30 yet?) This is the easiest one yet–with only two ingredients, you can make it with your eyes closed and one hand tied behind your back. But … Read more
I play music all…the…time. While I work, clean, cook (a rare occasion), get ready, unload the dishwasher, make out with dudes (even rarer than cooking these days), drive, work out, stare at my to-do list, stare at my computer screen, cuddle with Dewey, read magazines, stalk people, read about politics spend time on Facebook, pay bills … Read more
I am headed to Destin, FL this weekend with throngs of hard-partying Atlantans (not to be confused with thongs of hard-partying Atlantans, although there will be those, too) for what’s known as Adult Spring Break. It’s my first year at his momentous event, so I have been majorly preparing with no shame. I hope you’re … Read more
Let’s talk precipitation. For me, unless I’m hungover and want to watch movies in bed all day, I do NOT appreciate rain–it messes up plans and your hair. As for snow/ice, I’ll take a max of three snow days a year (I started going batshit on Day 4 of Snowpocalypse 2011). BUT I’ve decided that … Read more
*Click “Continue Reading” below if video doesn’t load.* I incorporate alcohol into about 98% of my CBS Better Mornings segments, so am obviously known on the set as the boozehound/party girl that starts throwing ’em back at 9 a.m. This week, I decided to fully embrace my reputation and do an ALL BOOZE segment. Check it … Read more
Perfume is tricky business. Not only do you have to love the scent you’re spraying on your body, but if you plan on being around people (which includes dates), it’s nice if those people enjoy the smell as well. Tough Love Tom says women should refrain from fragrances (refragrance?) altogether, but I think that’s a … Read more
Let’s talk about sweaty pits. No one wants ’em, but we all have to deal with ’em. Hayden from Pretty In My Pocket fills us in on the BEST products on the market, whether you need clinical treatment for your underarms, prefer all-natural sweat protection, or just want your pits to smell rich. But first, … Read more
I’m always stoked for the start of fall. First of all, because we get a break from the oppressive summer humidity, and secondly, because we can start wearing scarves, jackets, and (most importantly)….boots. Love it. I also adore the season’s color palette–all the oranges, yellows, golds, deep greens, and browns. The sunlight filtering through the … Read more
Nails Inc.’s Porchester Square polish was collecting dust in one of my beauty bins until this past Saturday when I decided to whip it out and do my own nails (yes, it happens on the reg), for a friend’s wedding. I had a feeling it would complement my bridesmaid dress perfectly. And I had a total … Read more
