No One Is Invincible

Reality has hit the Real Housewives of NYC! One showed that she wasn’t invincible, as she was laid off from her job as a buyer at Victoria’s Secret. Another Real Housewife faces assault charges after punching her boyfriend in the face.

I can’t get enough of the McDonald’s Filet O’Fish commercial.  Can you?

Estelle has a free song available for download on Crystal Light’s website.  You don’t even have to say that you’ll buy their products…even though I think diet drinks that will probably give me cancer are deeeelish.

Twitter was the buzzword in the mainstream media last week. The micro blogging site is growing by leaps and bounds, and is being utilized by reporters and citizen journalists alike.  Everyone seems to be tweeting, aka updating their twitter status. Will there be a backlash?

Last night’s American Idol episode made it clear that for the last contestant you should call 1-866-IDOLS-36 instead of the planned 1-866-IDOLS-13. The reasoning? American Idol usually reserves 12 phone lines, one for every finalist.  This year, there are 13 finalists.

The 13th consecutive phone line was apparently reserved for a phone sex hotline. The Hotline was allegedly disconnected before American Idol’s lines opened up. I hope you called or texted the right number if you were interested in casting a vote. I’m also wondering — how did the Phone Sex hotline let their users know that their number would not be in service?



If You’ll Be Bundled Up Inside Tonight …

Get wonderfully inspired by the amazing blog, Come Spy With Me, created by the ladies at Grasshopper, one of Philly’s most fabulous boutiques.  This photo collection of classic beauty will keep you coming back for more daily!

Bask in the tears and hilarity of American Idol’s Hollywood Week, and at the same time be particularly peeved knowing that Project Runway SHOULD HAVE BEEN BACK BY NOW!

Soothe your skin with a great face masque like the Rare-Earth Masque by Kiehl’s.

Finally, a super seasonal nightcap.  Sass up your hot chocolate with this amazing recipe.



Happy Thursday! The Weekend Prep Edition.

Nowadays, it’s like God forbid if a dude who has been calling/texting/communicating with you in various forms of impersonal technology asks to see you and actually calls it a date. I mean, really, that would be just insane, because anymore every young single knows that caring is creepy. In light of this philosophy, and the awkward yet anticipated “hangout,” I am left wondering just what the hell am I supposed to wear? I mean, I don’t want to appear as though I actually thought about it, right? Some fashion bloggers attempted to come to the rescue by posting photos of their top picks for first date—I mean “hangout”—attire, and I have to admit that some of these ladies have the right idea.

If you are going to a DJ night this weekend and think that somehow that adorable mini dress is going to make up for how weird you look convulsing in the hypothermic winter air, think again. Dress sassy but smart with these helpful tips.

Miss Popularity, an amazing highlighter by Benefit, does it all. With a line of it over each eye, you can achieve shimmery, icy eyes for a night out. And no matter how early your Friday obligations pull you out of bed, a simple brush of Miss Popularity under each eye will take away that, “I got home at 3 am and I have no idea how” look in a snap!

I don’t think this is actually news, because the fashion choices of contestants on American Idol have always made me cringe, but it seems even random news sites are taking note at just how lame these people can be. If the brunette spray-tanned attempt at Paris Hilton (because imitating her is cool?) isn’t enough for you, a photo gallery of the rest of these super-talents is posted as well.

A Final Treat: Save your skin from the sub-zero windchill with Alba’s Coconut Milk Body Cream. Not only does it have an amazing moisturizing effect, this lotion smells absolutely divine. Not to mention just $11.95 for an entire tub of it!
