OK ladies, I’m back at it…this time it’s wedge booties. Thumbs up or thumbs down? There is something appealing about the shape and style of wedge booties but I can’t get over the clunky heaviness of the shoe. I worry that they will only style well with jeans and cords, and that they might [...]

If you are looking for a quick and inexpensive pick me up, try the new Shatter nail polish by OPI. Part of the Katy Perry Collection, it is in fact a teenage dream, and even fun for the mother of the teen! A black polish that “shatters” when applied over a dry colored coat, the [...]

I’ve always been slightly obsessed with my fingernails and have spent a king’s ransom in manicures over the years. I love how clean and – well, polished – my hands look after a professional manicure.
