It’s only half way thru winter and I’m already so tired of feeling like a dry crocodile. We often get goodies to test to help with that just that very problem. And I was surprised that the bottle I keep on reaching for is from Vaseline.
The new Vaseline Sheer Infusion lotions have a little bit of science behind them. Straty-3 Complex (it’s patent pending and all) gets to all three layers of the skin to really moisturize.
Mineral is my fav – apple, peony and ginger. There’s also Botanical is Fiji apple and Chinese mandarin with a bit of lily; and Vitamin with pear, rhubarb and spices.
After all – who wants to cuddle up to stay warm with a crocodile.

So over Boxing Day I did only a few purchases worth mentioning: one was the cashmere wrap that my dog proceeded to chew. No seriously, he took actual bites out of it (and he doesn’t even chew shoes!) So he has good taste?
The other purchase is a pair of jeans from Citizens of Humanity. Now I’ve been perplexed at the branding they’ve been trying to do with the simple acronym of COH. Pretty blah, COH what the heck is that? But OMG is the other acronym I’ll use – as it’s what came out of my mouth when I touched them.
I’ve found a few JBrand that were this velvety soft that they don’t even feel like denim, but this one topped it. It was love at first touch. The Matrix wash is pretty grand.
Can’t wait to roll these softies up and go wandering on a beach like in this pic!

If you haven’t had enough of the sequin trend and need more bling in your life – here are the headphones for you.
BlingAffair.com has made a ton of custom Dj headsets and other music props for people like David Guetta, Roger Sanchez, The Party Squad, DJ Jean, Axwell, and many more. And many of their designs arelimited edition items, which means only 10 are made of this design.
So do the little Swarovsi crystals come off (all 3,500 of them)? Nah! (they claim) Nah! They have special pattented glue developed. So bling on.

Dues the passing of another year bring you thoughts of past makeup that you just can’t find anymore?
Threecustom.com and giella.com are new online stores to buy discontinued makeup – which they re-create for you. That shade of “it” bronzer, lip stick, or shadow that you can not find anymore.
At Three Custom you can do more than just reminisce about L Word Lipsticks! And with Giella you can mail in a blob of color and they’ll work from that for something from scratch, let alone a discontinued or they’ll custom blend makeup colours for you.

You’re probably thinking what I did at first – shopping bags aren’t anything new. I’ve got a dozen different types that fold up into little bundles that you can easily keep in your purse.
I still decided to test drive the Bhold Shopping Bags for a few months – including a few hefty Boxing Day adventures.
These ones are a bit pricey, but they wear really, really well. Other bags I’ve had were tossed and replaced in the same time span.
What I like most is the gathered top gives them a bit of shape compared to others – which is the other reason I much prefer the Copper colored version. Bhold’s color, shape and quality make it the best little travel shopping bag I’ve found.

My latest fav indie music is from Welsh singer–songwriter and guitarist, Ellie Goulding. Her voice. Love love love “it”.
Starry Eyed and Under the Sheets are amazing track, and even more grand is the upbeat Jakwob remix. Listen Up – here. On a recent girls trip to Whistler, Carla and I had the remix on repeat overkill!
Actually the only bad thing about Ellie Goulding is that there isn’t a full album yet, and she’s only touring in the UK. So you’ll just have to get teased by what there is – her official website says the album is coming out soon in 2010 (so keep watching) and buy a copy to support this indie angel.

An even heavier than norm’ social calendar has me trying to stretch out my holiday dresses – a bit of challenge, but just a few more to go! My easy answer is accessories.
Some good old sparkles usually do that, especially with all the sequins this season, but don’t forget tights and nylons - especially from the Secret Legwear Fall Collection.*
A bursts of color might be one way of getting some attention, but if you truly want to step into the spotlight, opt for pretty patterns. F/Winter 2009 you can add slinky glamour to an outfit with the Molten Gloss tight in Bronze or Silver, while the Black Crochet tight & Sparkle Diamond Mesh tight will take an outfit from plain to perfect in no time flat. My fav pick of the collection is the Horizontal Rib tight (the far right). Something about this ribbing adds real style, but is still demure.
*I know it’s December and I’m sharing Fall styles, but I just checked my local mall today and they’re in stock (on sale even).
