It looks like skin is in or at least, skin colors are in. Is nude the new black? I’ve never been a huge fan of tan, but it’s starting to look better and better. view full post »…

Ever since we met in old Landis Hall at FSU our freshman year, Shannon has been one of my absolute favorite people – sorority sister, roommate, best friend, drinking buddy – you name it. I don’t think she could have found a better mate than Doug. They are both smart, goofy, easy going and 100% sincere. A perfect combination!They’re tying the knot in October and…

If you’ve never made your way over to the Boatyard on Panama City Beach, start planning now! Next Thursday (July 16th) is Little Sundress Night and it is always a fun time to catch up with the girls, sip champagne and even win a little something nice. Envy Boutique gives away a dress every month and every sundressed lady gets a little goody bag full…

I know not all of you out there are country music fans, so you may have missed the CMT Crossroads that aired recently featuring Jason Aldean. For that matter, you may not have even heard of this newcomer, but I’m sure you’ve sung along to at least a few Bryan Adams songs in your day. Heaven? Cuts Like a Knife? Summer of 69? That’s a…

Lately I’ve been trying to plan a little girls’ trip to Europe in the fall, so I’ve been obsessed with anything travel related. I’ve never been, so it’s a pretty big deal for me. A friend of mine went to Greece not too long ago, and I seem to be falling madly in love with the pure whites and beautiful blues of the landscapes. The…

Amidst all of the wedding preparation that’s been going on lately (pics coming soon!), I managed to snag a few new pairs of shoes here and there. I definitely have some new favorites! Can’t you just imagine the possibilities for these babies? Some added sparkle for a relaxing day at the beach or a lazy shopping day… view full post »…

The wedding countdown is on! I can’t believe it’s less than two weeks away — I feel so unprepared! Some of the really fun parts of the time leading up to the big day are going to all the showers. The food is always cute and the drinks are always tasty! (Of course, as the MOH, I also have a very important job of writing…

This month’s After Hours event was at the fabulous Chops 30A, where I caught up with a couple friends and met several new faces. One of those was Giovanni Filipponi, the main man in the kitchen as well as Hell’s Kitchen current season cast member. Everyone sampled lots of his tasty apps (kobe beef! venison! tuna!) and sushi as we mingled around the amazing bar…

It’s February (already) and Valentine’s day is a short time away, so you might as well get in the spirit and treat yourself to a few chocolate-themed beauty goodies. I wouldn’t mind using some to add a little color to my face or smack to my lips and the best part is … these chocolate delights won’t go straight to your hips. view full post…

Take a little time out for some fun with the girls this weekend at the Aesthetic Clinique in Rosemary Beach. From 9-10 AM Saturday, there will be a breakfast of coffee, oj, fruit, and pastries with giveaways including BOTOX, Restylane, and other skincare goodies plus quality time with the girlfriends! view full post »…

It’s another cold day at the beach, so I’m trying to survive by focusing on the warm weather and sunshine coming this way soon. I love this dress on Ashley Tisdale. Her Gypsy 05 tie-dye would be perfect as a beach cover-up or even better dressed up for some shopping or lunch out. You can choose from a few colors at Madison boutique, but I’m…
