Got Hair? Got a Face? Get James.

I think everyone knows how much I love James Grella. Any man whose hair is longer than mine is a keeper in the Diva Squad.  (FYI, the Diva Squad is a group of professionals that work tirelessly to pull Miss Thang, yours truly, together.  Other great members of the Diva Squad would also be the [...]

Did You Know?

Let’s talk shop.
I’m going to share some things with you that you may have heard or thought about, that might not necessarily be true or warranted.

Hardly anyone really saves the top layer of their cake anymore.  Sure, they say they will eat it at their first year anniversary, but come on. Let’s be real. A [...]

Fake Creme Brulee

Ok.  My vices:
 *  Hair
 *  Makeup
 * Creme Brulee
 Creme Brulee is the best thing since sliced bread.  If creme brulee was a person, it would be my husband :)  After a hard day of playing Mommy, Mrs. S. and Super Wedding Planner, I am sitting in my living room with a signature Berry Creme Brulee candle watching [...]

Now that takes the CUPcake.

Wanting something a little more unique? 
Cupcake wedding cake. I know- YUM. It’s sure to leave your guests with some sweet memories of your big day. A cupcake wedding cake is usually less expensive than your traditional wedding cake, and since there are so many little cakes you can chose lots of flavors.  Plus, you can still have one cake tier (or seperate cake) for you and your new hubby [...]

Getting EXACTLY what you want….

 
…At least where it concerns your wedding jewelry
So you’ve got the dress, the shoes, and the veil and you’ve spent the past three months searching for the perfect jewelry to complement your already perfect dress on what is to be your perfect day.  The only problem is not that you aren’t sure what you want…it’s [...]

If the Nuns In My High School Could See My Workout…

They would probably hose me down with Holy Water.  (This will make you laugh– but looking back at my Senior yearbook at my past reunion, my Senior Superlative was “Most likely to still be serving detention by our reunion”.) Carmen Electra’s Aerobic Striptease is the BEST workout…EVER.  I tell everyone about it!  Even if you [...]

The Phone That Brought Sexy Back

In addition to my addiction to makeup–I’ve clearly got an addiction to phones too :)  I decided to maximize my time and efforts with business and personal life and got a Palm Treo. It was cute. I felt like a big girl.  Even though I wanted a Blackberry– I decided to cut my teeth on [...]

I Want Candy!

I have spoken before about my complete “thumbs-upping-ness” for edible favors. Some people don’t agree, but I figure, if you want to waste a couple hundred bucks on things people will leave behind– send it to me! I could always use more lipstick and bronzers! :)  You can jazz up your edible favors– like pictured [...]

Ditch the Crown!

I am noticing that more brides are opting to ditch the tiaras and crowns next year, and are deciding instead to go for embellished pins and combs, as featured left from Nuagi.  This can be a good option– ditching the antiquated crown can prevent you from looking like Miss Teen USA twenty years from now [...]
