Chicks, I have mentioned this before (I pretty much tell every person I meet this) but I can't tell you enough how much I love a good beard on a man. I would profess my love for beards from the mountain tops if I could. Every man should have a beard. It's always, always, always, better with a beard (in my humble opinion). 

I hope that I'm alone in my beardy love, though I do...

It's no secret we are caffeine junkies here at ChickAdvisor H.Q; and the $2 drink at 2 from Sense Appeal is a total enabler.  In the picture below that, you will see the lovely Aliza Chagpar, who has just been crowned our newest Intern.  Aliza has been a ChickAdvisor member for some time, so she had us at 'hello'.  Of course I had to take pictures of her outfit and those...

I love cooking, but it's also kind of a stressful task. With just a slip up here and a misread ingredient there, you can suddenly find yourself with a dish that not even the dog will eat. 

That's where these nifty little 'kitchen hacks' come in handy. They're tips and tricks that can help save you time, money and generally make your life easier.

Sometimes something is just too cute not to share. That's definitely the case with these onesies I found at an Etsy shop called The Wishing Elephant. I just happened to stumble upon them one day and I thought to myself, I must have a child right now and dress them up as a piece of salmon sushi. This needs to happen. 


How can you resist a baby dressed as a piece of sushi on a bed of rice...

Today was an office day, which basically consisted of food, clothes and lots of meetings.  Oh and there was cupcakes.  Definitely the best part!

Back in January 2012, the Chick staff all wrote down their resolutions for the upcoming year. My own resolution was to take better care of myself. This wasn't exactly coming out of nowhere. Over the past few months, I had started to notice changes in my body. At first, it was just that my jeans were a little tight but before I knew it, I couldn't even get them on. 

I've never...

Today was an office day so while my baby makes googly eyes at his babysitter (for real. He totally has a crush on her), I'm back in my office-y clothes working with my super awesome team.  People always ask what a typical day is like for me and I feel like I should say something really impressive, but honestly, the first thing I do is check out everyone's outfits. I can't help...

Despite what I like to believe, I am not a professional model. Sadly, being only 5'5'', I lack one of the essential qualities needed to be one. I do however, get my photo taken on a regular basis here at ChickAdvisor so I do know a thing or two about being in front of the camera. I used to find getting my picture taken a huge annoyance but I've grown accustomed to pictures now and...

It's pouring rain today and whenever the weather is gray, I like to make indoors as cozy as possible. Luckily I'm working from home and my 4 toothed co-worker is super cute.

I was in a bit of a self-reflective mood this morning so I spent some time with spreadsheets and my old pal, the Bible.  I'm one of those purpose-driven types and it's important to me to evaluate how I...

During the summer months, my reading material needs to be that perfect blend of humour, romance and fun, of course some juicy drama thrown in doesn't hurt either! I'm a big fan of beach reads. I love light hearted novels that I can just relax and unwind with. Sure, it isn't War and Peace or anything but who doesn't love some guilty pleasure reading in the sun? 

There are...
