LaLicious Body Care: A Review
Have you tried the LaLicious skin care products? They are a line of body care products that are made with natural ingredients. They are free from chemical preservatives, harsh ingredients, parabens, or sulfates.
The LaLicious people sent me a variety of their products in the Brown Sugar & Vanilla fragrance to try for review and I loved them. My favorite was the Sugar Souffle. It smells incredible. Seriously. I had my daughter smell it and we agreed that it smelled good… More »
5 Spring Collections To Start 2010
Over the last week or so I’ve brought you several spring wedding gown collections. I thought I’d recap my 5 favorites here today. My absolute favorite is Vera Wang’s Spring collection. I love the fitted look, the flowing shimmering layers, and the splashes of color in her new line. Fabulous!
I also enjoyed the Justin Brandon collection. I love the different looks, from the elegant shimmer of the Signature collection, to the curve hugging perfection of the Pure line (these gowns… More »
What Will Wedding Gown Trends Bring~2010?
What can we look forward to for the wedding gown trends of 2010? Many of the spring wedding gown collections I’ve featured here at Splendicity Wedding over the last few days have had several things in common, so today I want to talk about a few of those things.
Here are some of the trends I’ve spotted in the spring collections I’ve featured over the last week or so.
Most of the collections featured at least one mini dress. Whether these mini… More »
2 Point Knew Length Dress by Grey Ant
Grey Ant is a new label that makes styles that are simple but off-kilter in a way that I absolutely love. The LBD turns into a draped, sculptural garment in their hands, with a surprising blend of fabrics and textures.
Holy perfect neckline! The sweetheart cut is flattering on everyone, and the ruching at the center of this strapless version makes it wearable for even the small-breasted, like myself, who usually look a little awkward in strapless styles. The fabric is… More »
2010 Resolutions: Better Skin Care
Today is the last day of 2009. Phew! Bring on 2010, I’m ready!
I’ve been thinking about the changes that I’ve faced this year – work, personal, family, friends. Some changes have been good, some not so good, but I’m lucky in that my family is secure and I love my work. With a base like that, anything is possible.
I’m going to be working on my resolutions a bit more today. My youngest and I are both making a project of… More »
Best of 2009: Luxury Edition
As we are getting our make-up ready, dresses on, nails polished and dancing shoes on in anticipation for the ball to drop this New Year’s Eve it’s time to take a look back at this year in luxury. Taking a look back is always a great way to see where we are headed. We saw luxury bargains, the rise of fashion on twitter, and the rise (if that’s what you can call it) of Lindsay Lohan at Ungaro. So, what’s… More »

My Favorite Chapstick: Fresh Lip Treatment
I’d heard a lot about this special little chapstick before I tried it. Fresh is one of my favorite skin care boutiques with soaps, scrubs, and moisturizers that focus as much on beautiful packaging as they do on natural ingredients and mesmerizing scents. I am usually wary of skin care products with fancy packaging because it seems that they might be disguising an inferior product in a superior dressing, but Fresh completely delivers.
Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15 $22.50
The top-selling product… More »

Cherrie Mini Dress by Betsey Johnson Archives
The Betsey Johnson Archives collection induced a majorly cool blast from the past this year. I want basically every piece, especially because they’re exactly like the pieces I wanted as a teenager. This one is a total classic, and totally on sale.
Mmmmm, cherries on a black background with lime green leaves? Yes, please. I love the simple body con cut, the stretch cotton fabric, and the drastically reduced $80 price tag. It’s hard not to imagine this dress with a… More »
Christina Aguilera Dresses Like a Teen
I think Christina time travelled back to her early Genie in a Bottle days and forgot that she’s a mother and almost 30. I know the girl likes to make fashion statements, but this is just not a good one.
The young mama was spotted out shopping with hubbie Jordan Bratman and baby Max at Barneys in Beverly Hills. I’m 99% certain that she didn’t get this outfit at anyplace like Barneys. I have no idea where she found this 80′s… More »

2. Eat black eyed peas…. More »
Joan Rivers is back with E! for red carpet
E! has had some issues with their red carpet coverage. Every awards season it’s someone new, including the short lived stint Isaac Mizrahi had with the network, which promptly ended after he groped Scarlett Johansson in her body hugging red dress. Yikes.

Now it looks like Joan Rivers is back with E!, at least for coverage of the Golden Globes, which airs January 18th. I am so excited to see what nominees like Mo’nique and Marion Cotillard wear on… More »

Marquis & Camus Vintage Jewelry
Ever since I discovered Marquis & Camus a few months ago I have been drooling over the unique appearance of this beautiful jewelry line. I would definitely be superbly happy if I could have any piece in the collection!
Sarah Kang designs each piece with a mixture of vintage and new materials to create necklaces and earrings with large gems, cameos, grosgrain ribbon, and lots of tangled chains. I like that many of the pieces look as if you have just… More »
