Thank you notes aren’t just for weddings and baby showers. You were invited to some shi-shi event, were treated to that large latte with no foam soy, your bestie stepped up an put your ex in his place. These little acts of kindness deserve a note of thanks. You don’t need to channel Rumi or Hemingway….just keep it short and simple. It’s the act that counts. All you need are

Spring & Summer 2012 trends have an air of sunshine and fun: perfect to dream about on these cold winter days. We think Elle Magazine’s predictions give a nice little tally of trends to come…. RETRO – Polished 50’s and 60’s feminine styles a la Mad Men are still hot for spring 2012. SHIRTS – From the classic oxford to a form-fitting shirtdress – shirts are a staple for spring.

The latest buzz word for facials is Oxygen. As in 02 Facials. Buzz is what comes with celeb endorsement such as Madonna, Heather Locklear, Donatella Versace, Justin Timberlake, and Gwen Stefani endorsing it and Madonna is even has a machine in her home and this is her go to “it” facial before each concert.

The Queen of Pop’s debut fragrance, Truth or Dare by Madonna: USA April 2012 (only at Macy’s), with global roll outs starting in May. So here’s the first leak of the ads, with Madonna x two. Last Fall, Madonna announced she’s expanding from tween Material Girls to the rest of us with a new fashion brand called “Truth or Dare by Madonna.” The line include accessories, footwear, handbags, and intimates; and

Found this Timberland hiking shoe that got me thinking… I’ve scheduled some R&R in February. Need a vacation to recover from the last holiday season – and being slammed with work upon return. A must do on my trip is a reunion with a little hike up Scottsdale’s Camelback mountain. There are two tough ones – but also a lesser-known one where I don’t have to lose a lung and

We especially covet their Guardian Angel Collection.  It’s eccentric and controversial which makes it the perfect accessory for 2012.
