I am one of those people who like to create resolutions upon the commencement of a new year. I like the idea of a fresh start and a clean slate; I like self-reflecting on what I have done well and where I have fallen short. For the past few years, I have tried several times …

Shopping Ban Combination Update for February & March 2019
Let’s avoid the throat clearing and get straight to the point. I have been fabulously failing at sticking to my shopping ban rules for both February and March.

Shopping Ban Update for January 2019
On my way to work this morning, Brian cranked up Biggie Smalls “Hypnotize” as I am constantly singing the “refrain” (not sure if that is what you would call it). The song put me in a great mood to start the day and of course Brian got a laugh out of my off beat groove …
Oh the Opulence at Incheon Airport…

Champagne Taste on a Beer Budget
I love champagne, I love Louis Vuitton and all things Chanel. Above all things I love to travel and Europe is my favorite destination to hit. The last time I was in Europe was when I explored the UK which included England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland with my best friend & greatest travel companion Jenn. …
FabFitFun Winter Box 2015
I have never done one of these surprise product box things before, but I saw a lot of good press on the FabFitFun seasonal boxes. My girlfriend said it was way better than Ipsy and gave you full sized products and seasonal items. How it works is each season they will deliver a box right …
