It’s no secret- everyone loves a deal. I am sure even some of the fashionistas seated at Fashion Week (Beyonce and Alexa Chung among them) were frantically rushing about to get their hands on some of those coveted Missoni for Target items, whether they came in the form of a bicycle, a floppy hat or a signature printed jumpsuit. When they aren’t looking for designer steals, though, they are seated at some of the most glorious designer fashion walks to take place this season.

This week, when the girls headed home, their house was full of Warriors in Pink merchandise (from the Susan B. Komen Foundation). The next morning, the girls were sent to a modeling challenge.  The always gorgeous Nigel was waiting at a studio for them and told them that they would be doing a shoot for Warriors in Pink.  Each girl had to embody a symbol (i.e. an angel, a tree, etc.) and the winner would appear in a Warrior in Pink print ad.

I don’t know about you, but whenever springtime approaches, I get inspired to change.  Since the world is getting a fresh start, I want to have a fresh start, too! This usually includes a desire to chop off my hair, buy a whole new wardrobe, and start working out more often.  Most years, I chicken out and don’t actually change a thing.  This year, though, I really do want to give myself a spring makeover to refresh both my body and mind- and you can, too!

1. Tell us a bit about your blog?

red lipstick

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, you’re probably searching for the perfect Valentine’s day look – the outfit, the makeup and the hair. I tend to be a makeup minimalist. I’ll cover up zits and blotchy spots as well as use mascara and eyeliner, but that’s about it. This allows me to keep my morning routine to 10 minutes or less.

But why not spice things up a bit for Valentine’s Day? I won’t lie, I am deathly afraid of red lipstick. Actually, I don’t like wearing red anything – I’ve never felt good in red. I’ve always believed that some people can pull it off, and others, well, can’t.  Apparently, wearing red lipstick isn’t so cut and dry.  It turns out that anyone can pull off red lipstick if it’s the right shade, the right outfit and the right occasion.

The other day, Kathryn wrote about the STRESS surrounding Valentine’s Day.  While letting go of those crazy, unattainable romantic ideals will definitely alleviate some Valentine’s Day stress, my motto, like the Boy Scouts, is to always be prepared.

If you want a special Valentine’s Day, help plan one! Don’t leave everything up to you significant other. Sure surprises are nice, but just because you take charge doesn’t mean that he won’t surprise you with something.

While going out to eat is a standard V-Day activity, maybe this year you should cook an extra-special meal at home.  Here are some healthy Valentine’s Day meal options:

Meal 1:
Herbed Pork with Sauteed Wild Mushrooms
Kale Saute
Shortcake Biscuits with Berries
