About seven months ago I did a post on a new product, the Color Bug. It gives your hair a nice, bright bit of temporary color without being stiff or sticky like spray-on colors. It looked neat, but I was hesitant to try it. Would it be messy? Would […]

Contest: Latitude Longitude Keepsake Pendant
Ana from the fantastic (and Seattle-based) company, The Pretty Peacock, contacted me about her jewelry a month or two ago, and I fell in love. Her pieces are all deeply personal and customizable–things that will always make you think of the person who gave it to you. The Latitude Longitude […]

Be Patriotic and Fashionable
Like me, you’re probably a bit sleep-deprived today from staying up and watching speeches by Romney and Obama. Whether or not the candidates and measures you voted for won, we all gathered together to exercise our right to vote and make a change in our country. Pretty awesome. What better […]

Introducing: OneUpMakeup
A couple weeks ago, I gathered together with my friends Liz, Kristina, Meagan, Mallory, and Molly and put together a geeky makeup channel. I swear, filming with this group of girls was like being at an awesome sleepover: I was giggling like crazy the whole time while we played with […]
