Reading Roundup: Lips, Gifts, 'n Stew

Posted by Claire | Friday February 4, 2011

Our blogger besties are talking up luscious lips, Valentine's gifts, and hearty stews this week.

Gifted loves this adorable wooden puzzle that doubles as kid bedroom decor, while Kim Vallee found a nifty way to package Valentine sweets.

Beauty Geek is in Paris, taking the sights and noticing that French women don't do bright lipstick. It's their loss, n'est-ce pas?

Sweet Potato Chronicles fixed up some Mediterranean-style Chicken Stew a la spaghetti all puttanesca (and there's a scandalous back story there, so click over to read!)

See what our other Style Collective chicks are up to this week: Beauty Editor, Coco & Lowe, I Want - I Got, I'm The It Girl, and Style House.
