New Fall/Winter Nail Shades: Something for Everyone | September 27, 2011

New Fall/Winter Nail Shades: Something for Everyone

As always, with a new season comes new nail polish shades, and I have to say I get giddy over cold weather hues.

Fashion and Beauty Interest Already Emerging After ‘One Day’

Based on the international best-selling novel by David Nichols, One Day, starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess, premiered in theaters last Friday on August 19, 2011.  Although weekend box office stats can not be completely determined until Monday afternoon, by Saturday there were already indicators that One Day was not going to meet the expectations of movie critics and its producer, Focus Features.  It ranked fourth at the box office among competing Friday released films, Spy Kids: All the Time in the World taking first — more than doubling One Day‘s gross earnings (see boxofficemojo.com for complete weekend box office stats).

Whadda Stud! | August 15, 2011

Whadda Stud!

Move aside Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Matthew McConaughey and the Old Spice guy…there’s a new stud in town. He’s slick, shiny and hard – colorful, too – and maybe a little naughty. He’s…AN EARRING?? Haha, betcha didn’t see that coming. Or maybe, knowing me, you did.
