I know summer break is just about over, but what is on your reading and watching list right now? I have a few things floating around on the to-do list, and hopefully I will find the time for most of them! Lion – This movie came highly recommended by my best friend but I haven’t […]
How often do you change your handbag? Daily, weekly, seasonally, when it wears out? We each have our own preferences as to when it’s time for a new one. Part of it depends on what type of handbag you carry. If you tend to carry a classic, you are probably less tempted to change it […]

As long as you know in advance which things to avoid, you can […]
I’m not referring to the 12-step skincare regimens, although that does seem like a lot. I’m referring to how much of each product you use with each application.
