Princess Headgear

My daughter Eva is a princess, let's state the fact first ;) She believes everyday is her birthday, she will sing "Happy Birthday Eva" everyday. As my princess I'm always on the lookout for special little things that will make her feel as special as she is to me. On Facebook the other day, my co-worker's daughter Ashley posted some headband she handmade. I fell in love with them, so personalized, so cute. Ashley's "Little Bowchique" has recently been born and I'm already a fan. She custom made these two bows for Eva, I sent her a picture of the outfits and she worked her magic.
I love that she named the first one after my princess ;)

This purple/pink one is called Cupcake.

Please check out her FB album/page:  http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150173978221698.317204.684671697#!/media/set/?set=a.10150277022196421.373859.590676420
You can also email her at akarin22@aol.com
Support a young Hispanic woman with a great talent!! She can custom make headbands for any outfit you have.
The best part of giving Eva these headbands, was her reaction, "Mami, I look like a princess!"

Dazzling

I recently became a member of Shoedazzle.com, a website that brings you different styles of shoes, purses, and jewelry. My kind of website ;) For $39.95 a month you can order a pair of shoes, a purse or jewelry that are picked for you according to a survey you take.
For my first purchase I chose these heels "Glam" , they fit true to size. For your first purchase they give you $7.99 off, so they were $31.99.


For my second purchase I chose this bone purse with gold straps, "Paris." Shoedazzle really knows how to cater to women. First with the packaging of your purchase. All covered in hot pink tissue paper and in this lovely hot pink bag
I was very happy with my "Paris" bag, its a convenient size, I thought it was huge from the pictures on the site. I can use it with the strap extended or double up the strap. It has enough storage space.
Visit http://www.shoedazzle.com/ and sign up, they don't ask for a credit card until you are ready to purchase. And you can skip a month if you don't find anything you like, but trust me you're gonna love a lot of their styles.
Happy Shopping!!

Genefique - Lancome

I'm terrified of wrinkles...that fear started when I was 21! So I started lathering up all the cosmetic creams you can imagine. At 33 I'm happy to report no huge wrinkles, despide the love I have for suntanning. In my continual journey of fighting the wrinkles, I came upon a new weapon...Genefique by Lancome. I was out cosmetic shopping with my BFF, and the Lancome counter lady applied some Genefique to her face before testing out some foundations. We saw a difference on how the foundation looked with the Genefique on, so we had to try it. Four weeks later I'm so happy with the product, the $58 tag was worth it. My face feels youthful, hydrated, and softer. 
I've found my fountain of youth! Go to the Lancome counter and test it out.
