Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI get a bit giddy when I think about the approaching spring season. While it may be chilly outside, it's all springtime warmness in my head and heart.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI'm not sure why I would have expected anything less than this outfit from Kesha. It's not great - glad that's out of the way - but it is totally Kesha (aka Ke$ha), I'll give her that.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThis is the one and only time you'll ever hear me geek out. I obsessively watch YouTube videos on 3D printing. I swear this is the stuff of sci fi tv shows from the 60's. I mentioned my love for 3D printers in my Apocalypse Shopping Haul, that's how cool I think they are.
If you aren't so familiar with the concept of 3D printing, I'll explain the basics of what you...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI have a soft spot for 90's nostalgia, so when I heard that the iconic 90's hair styling company Vidal Sassoon was revamping and relaunching its classic line of haircare from the 90's, I was excited to get my Cher from Clueless hair flip on.
Lucky for me, Vidal Sassoon was happy to let me check out their new collection. Plus, they showed me how they used the products to create a...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWhile our all time love will always be a LBD, we think it might be time to shake things up and inject some colour into February. We're suggesting: Red (surprise). There's a reason that Little Red Riding Hood chose it as her signature hue. Red is hot. It's universally flattering and always makes a statement. Whether you're doing red as print, pattern or solid, it's an...
