So it’s no secret that I love ice cream and now Baskin Robbins is totally going to make me fat because TODAY if you show proof of your gym membership (at participating locations), you get a FREE scoop of BRight Choices, the chain’s selection of low-calorie, low fat, and sugar-free ice cream and frozen yogurt…I guess I can’t feel too guilty about that. Who doesn’t want ice cream when it’s snowing?! LOL.
So one of the top spas in NYC, Bliss, is having their own personal celebration to say goodbye to President George W. Bush. During our transition from one president to another, get 20%off Bliss Spa’s signature Brazilian Bikini Wax, plus any waxing and select post waxing products you buy!

So lately I have a new obsession: PostSecret.com. I’m sure you’ve heard of it by now but if you haven’t, basically it’s a site where people send in anonymous post cards with their deepest darkest secrets written on them.
I think I’m fascinated by how completely deranged some people are and also a little intrigued to see if anyone shares my own inner thoughts and feelings. Apparently this site is also among the most visited Web sites by teens…which is actually really interesting to me AND the founder has also somehow managed to turn this site into THREE books. Impressive and intriguing…doesn’t it make you wonder if you know someone who sent in one of these postcards? I saw this one and immediately wondered if my first love sent it in…yeah right.
So I’m a little embarrassed to admit this, but I love the new show “Bromance” with Brody Jenner. Personally, I’ve always been a big Brody fan (even though he’s stupid to not be dating Lauren Conrad) and this show is just absolute pure comedy to watch. I still kind of hate the whole “win a friendship” or “win a husband” concept that a lot of these reality TV shows have but in this case, hey, at least they also win a sick apartment in LA.
So I’m not going to lie, I’ve pretty much been anti-UGG boot since the beginning. I think going to college on Long Island was what spawned what is now a great hatred for an inanimate object. My cousin had ORANGE UGGs at one point (not lying)…and they’re even being sold for an insane amount of money on eBay by some crazy person in “middle of USA.”
Annnnyway, the point of my venting is that according to this WWD (for those fashion enept, Women’s Wear Daily– aka the NY Times of fashion) article, the UGG boot saved Christmas. Really? Thank god someone else takes case with this: one of my favorite sites, Fashionista.com, basically called out the fact that the only time you see people in New York (tourists don’t count) wearing UGGs is when it’s snowing and/or your going to Whole Foods in your pajamas. So then how in the world did the UGG boot save Christmas?! My guess is all those “middle of USA” people are still buying them?
I will admit that I was intrigued by the Cardy version in grey which I feel is not too stupid looking, like the rest of the line. And I don’t know…I also kind of like the chocolate brown “classic” version…but should I give in? Should I join the band wagon like what? five years later? This is still TBD. More later…
So It’s 2009 and I’m BACK! Not much of a segway but I came across the best article on BellaSugar today. How to create a looped ponytail. Boy does this take me back, LOL. I used to think this was the COOLEST hairstyle ever back in the days of elementary school…enjoy the step-by-step directions.
