Paul Mitchell Freeze and Shine Super Spray

Achieve long-lasting hold for your hair without looking stiff and flaky like an 80’s commercial or a Molly Ringwald movie. It’s made with rosemary, aloe, henna and jojoba, so you can rely on having gorgeous shine sans the oily look or feel. It’s great for short locks, but works well for any hair type. And it smells lovely and releases a light mist, unlike several hairsprays that smell like alcohol and spritz out too much spray at once.

This super spray also contains sunscreen, so you can protect those tresses when you’re under the sun. So whether you wear your hair up or down, curly or straight, you’ll get the hold you need, yet your hair will look soft and lively. Hey, they didn’t call it a super spray for nothin’.

Golden Flats

Golden Flats

Christian Louboutin Marisandal Flats

Valentine’s Day is not even here yet, but I can’t help but brag about these yellow-gold flats for spring and summer. And it’s official- Christian Louboutin is my favorite designer. I’ve never encountered so many shoes and clothing that I consistently love from the same designer. Well anyway, these sandal/flats are the perfect shoe to add a touch of gold to almost any casual spring and summer garment.

In case you didn’t notice, it is basketweave nappa leather. You can’t go wrong with a good leather shoe, girls. Team it up with a fun and flirty summer dress or skirt and oversized tote bag or your timeless capri or short. It’s pretty versatile, but I’d pair it up with dressy/casual ensembles- nothing too formal, obviously. For instance, unless you’re totally fashionably challenged, I know you wouldn’t wear these with a cocktail dress or evening gown.

Ditch the Perfume and Body Lotion

Origins Birthday Suit for Silky Smooth Body Skin

Can you imagine not wearing perfume and body lotion any longer? I mean those are two important beauty items in a woman’s life. Most of us care about how we smell and our skin’s softness or lack thereof. Well, Origins Birthday Suit is a body spray that moisturizes our skin (think glorified baby oil sans the oil), plus a sweet, refreshing fragrance of spearmint, wintergreen, lemon and lavender. Who needs a perfume and body cream when this little spray does the trick?

With a few mists all over your body, you’ll instantly smell lovely and your skin will look and feel silky smooth. It’s perfect to use right after a shower when you skin is still a bit damp- that way, your skin will absorb it more. Someone will probably ask you; Mmm what is it that you’re wearing? It smells wonderful! You can simply respond by saying, oh, my Birthday Suit.

Marchesa Silk Chiffon Gown

Marchesa Silk Chiffon Gown

This lovely coral chiffon number is the epitome of spring formal fashion. It has an embellished bodice and long, feminine drapery that it’s the right dress for those who want to exude a Grecian look. Pair it with metallic gold stilettos and a gold clutch, and you’ll look red-carpet ready. It’s one of those gowns that nearly any body shape can pull off- and that most certainly includes moms-to-be. So if you’ve got quite a large baby bump, you can flaunt your pregnancy with this dress and still look hot.

The color itself should be an incentive to wear this dress. Coral is not only pretty and timeless, but it’s the rage this spring and summer- so you’ll stand out at any event in the midst of a slew of ladies wearing the same classic black gown. You will be refreshing to gaze it, believe me.

Spritz Yourself Clean

Spritz Yourself Clean

Clean Provence by Dlish

At first glance, I thought this was a new scent from Philosophy, then immediately my next thought was that it resembled a bootleg version of Philosophy Amazing Grace- sorry, Dlish but you could have come up with a different bottle for your perfume. Anyway, I don’t mean to diss Dlish, but seriously…

Well, regardless of its sketchy packaging, the scent happens to be quite decent. Just as the name says, it smells well, clean. It’s infused with cotton blossom, violet musk, lemon, lime and rose geranium. Remember when your Mama used to bring out a basket of clean, fresh laundry? ‘Twas a sweet, sentimental smell, wasn’t it? Well, that’s Clean in a nutshell, but with an added twist of citrus. Mmm- can’t get cleaner than that, can ya?
Well, speaking of laundry, Dlish does have a fragrance named Clean Fresh Laundry- that one possesses more of the freshly washed tee-shirt scent, hence the name, but Clean Provence is not much different, except with more floral under-notes.

It’s a Jungle Around Your Waist

Roberto Cavalli Leopard Print Belt

Leopards and snakes and belts, oh my! Forgive me for my ridiculous leopard print fetish (and corny humour), but I just can’t seem to bypass leopard print anything! Well, this insanely cute belt by Roberto Cavalli has a twisted gold snake buckle in the front for an extra kick of jungle action. But seriously, it’s a must-have belt for all you animal-print addicts out there- and believe me I empathize.

Wear it with a killer pair of jeans and stilettos or boots, and- holla! Classy and sassy. You can also wear it to accesorize a monochromatic black casual or semi-casual outfit. Or pull it off with a red blouse as leopard print and red team well together. Whichever color you choose to wear the belt with, obviously choose the right handbag accordingly (I have faith in you).

Sergio Ross Round Toe Platform Pumps

I want these so bad, I could scream. I love shoes that are not your average or “normal” color. Don’t get me wrong; I’m not saying I would sport a pair of flamboyant neon green pumps, but I do appreciate tasteful, yet funky pieces of fashion- thanks to my Sanguine disposition. But anyway, you might be wondering what on earth do you wear these with in terms of color. Well, I don’t mean to copycat net-a-porter.com, but they paired these up with a lovely neutral-toned dress, and I’ve gotta say, it looks fabulous with a khaki/tan sort of color because it added a fun flair to a “plain” colored number. You can also pair it with a multi-colored ensemble that has some of the same/similar shade of blue in it.

Because it is a blue shoe, it won’t limit you to wear it exclusively for day or night- you can easily pull it off during any time of day. And boy, do I love fashion pieces that are versatile. As for what handbag to wear these with, it mainly depends on your outfit, not solely on these platforms.
