Savvy Travelers – For Savvy Women On The Go!

I realize I should do a post on what to pack for a quick beach weekend away, and I will soon (as I am going away for a beach weekend by the end of summer). But in the meantime, if you are traveling somewhere for just a few days, you need to consider Savvy Travelers. I don’t know about you, but my toiletries take up most of my carry-on bag. There’s hardly room for my clothes, not to mention shoes. Or if you take short business trips you already know it’s no fun trying to stuff your beauty and skincare products into those tiny 3.4 oz containers allowed in the overhead bins on planes. I wind up checking my bag because I can’t be bothered. Not anymore!

The Recap And Fashion Drama of The RHONY Season 8: Ep 14

It’s winter in NYC, at least on the Real Housewives of New York! Bethenny walks into work where Kristopher, her makeup artist, reveals he just had his fat frozen. I may have to try that. Bethenny says “You’re like the future Janice Dickenson.” Bethenny’s surgery is just 3 days away and while she is having anxiety about it, she’s keeping busy launching a new line of Skinny Girl chocolates, which is her last obligation prior to surgery. The other girls have been really supportive, most surprisingly Ramoaner. “She’s been unbelievable, who would ever think?” Apparently Ramoaner has been popping over with flowers and books to read so she can keep Bethenny company. It’s not like she has anything better to do.

Outfit Of The Day: Black On Black And Pop Of Bright!

Sure we all love summer whites, but isn’t it easier to wear all black, especially when you live and work in the city? To summer-ize my often all black wardrobe, I like to add a few surprise bursts of bright color. My black M Missoni tank has a multicolor kaleidoscope print on the back and my bright blue clutch bag becomes the center of attention when worn with all black.

Don’t Want To Look Frozen? Dysport Is The Answer

Since I’m an open book and reporting on anti-aging products is my thing…I freely admit I have had Botox (ahem) a few times (wink, wink). However, I am always certain to tell the doctor administrating it, I don’t want to look frozen. I have a a very expressive face and if I can’t move it, it will not go unnoticed. I want to remain myself, I just don’t want to see all those damn lines on my forehead. So when I heard about Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA) which is a similar injectable to Botox, I was intrigued. Why? It’s a prescription for temporary improvement in the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults less than 65 years of age – and you can still move your face!

Celebrity Style Steal: Nicole Richie Rocks A Classic Summer Look

Rock and roll fashionista Nicole Richie takes accessorizing to a whole new level with this black and white look. To start I paired two essential pieces from rag & bone. A draped back black tank, which can be worn for numerous outfits, and a pair of white skinny boyfriend jeans (finally a jean that is actually comfortable and stylish to wear).
