Gmail is great (at least when it's up and running and not crashing, don't even get me started on that). Gmail lets me send emails to my friends and parentals.

Whenever we come across something interesting, we immediately link it to each...

I'll admit that I've never really been a Kim K fan. I've always thought that she just seemed to be trying too hard. Especially after she hooked up with Kanye and went all "high fashion", seriously, those quotation marks are well placed. However, homegurl has been looking all sorts of fabulous lately. Motherhood is doing her good. She stepped out in Paris with not only a brand new dye job, but this...

Ladies, I have a new, weird obsession and I need to share it with you. 

So, this new Asian beauty supply store opened up near CA HQ and I decided that it was necessary to go on a bit of a rampage and spend all my money there. 


Among the goodies I purchased, was a mysterious package in another language. I assumed it had something to do with acne treatment. To be honest, I had no clue what...

At any given moment, I have about a week's worth of lip products on me. I just looked through my bag and I have two lip balms, two lip stains, a lip liner and a lipstick. What can I say? A gal likes to change her mind! Plus, I've got a serious case of 'Ioseeverything-itis'. With lip balms that seem to just disappear without a trace and my love for trying EVERY SINGLE COLOUR EVER, I don't like to...

It's October. A.K.A. Oktober. As in, Oktoberfest. As in, the holiday dedicated to all things German, Beer and Sausage related. That's my kind of holiday. I, for one, am all for beer guzzling however, I know I may be in the minority around here. 


When you imagine a 'typical beer fan', you're probably picturing some Homer Simpson-esque guy, pot bellied and balding with a big ol' mug o' beer in...

If you know me, you know that I loooovveee a good ol' chunk of meat. A nice, juicy steak or a moist pork tenderloin, I'm all up on that. Now, my love for meats can even extend to my beauty routine! Through the grapevine, or rather, the meatvine (lame, I know), I heard about Dirty Duck Soap. This soap is all natural and made from the fats of game meats like duck, pork or chicken. Sound crazy?

So with a new season, we've been been searching for new loves and developing some serious crushes. Here are a...
