Vaunting 'Mongst Minions

I couldn't resist borrowing this phrase from the Bard himself.  Is that terribly despicable of me? It seems my life has been going at 90 miles an hour for the past two months. But, no matter how busy I get, spending a little quality time with my better half is very high on my list of priorities.

Eat Drink And Be Merry

For tomorrow we shall all die(t). As we approach the end of the holidays and the beginning of 2014 it's only appropriate to ring out the old year in style. After all, on New Year's Day most of us will attempt to turn over a new leaf and get our lives - and waistlines - back in order. More on that later this week.

You may even find something you love at such a good price you'd be a fool not to give yourself a little gift, too.

Put On Your Red Dress Baby

And don't forget your high-heeled boots. Although these pictures were taken several weeks ago I wanted to use them today, post-Thanksgiving, to talk about some of the things I'm thankful for that may seem a bit trivial to some but mean the world to me.

Spashionista's Shopping Picks

It's here; the most wonderful time of the year. The time of year when everybody's doing what I do best - shopping! I want to encourage you to give small businesses, both locally and on the 'net, your support by shopping with them this season.
