I recently saw an ad on Facebook for Girlfriend Collective, boasting innovative leggings that only cost the price of shipping ($20). I was intrigued, clicked through and bought the product. It was a bit of an experiment to see if there was a catch or if they really were the best-fitting, sustainably- and ethically-made leggings out there. After all, they advertised the fact that Lulu Lemon alums were making them and refused to sacrifice quality, fit and the environment. Plus: $20. They were speaking my language. I also just received this sweater dress that would show my every bump and bulge if I didn't find the right pair of body-flattering tights or leggings to wear underneath. In short, I am hooked on these Girlfriend Collective leggings and would encourage you to get in on this pre-order discounted action. Read on to learn more of the details...Schedule
I've been testing several foundations over the last few months, desperately trying to find the best one for me and the ones that I'm willing to recommend to my readers. And I've found a few, actually! Plus I've found some that I didn't love, and some that I'd still like to try that folks have told me about along the way - both high and low end. Read on for my favorite foundation recommendations!Schedule
Atlanta keeps threatening to turn to fall but as soon as we get one lovely autumnal day, it's back to the mid-80s on the next. I've had to start playing a game with my outfits where I get to wear some fabulous fall pieces but I have to balance it out by showing a little skin. Now I'm not one to bare it all - I'm simply too old for that and it's never really been my style - but at the same time, one needs ventilation in the south. So to have my fall-style-cake and eat it too, I'm going for it. If you live in a warmer climate, read on for thoughts on rocking cold-weather trends. Schedule
It's been a while since I've done a post focused on haircare - partly because I've been so uninspired by my hair products lately! Here's why - my hair has changed dramatically over the last year. It used to be off-the-charts curly and very voluminous. In fact, I could get away with washing it once a week (no joke). Now that I'm solidly in my 30s, the natural curl has turned into an unpredictable semi-wave, it gets greasy after one day, and it is thinner. Then one day it'll curl out of the blue after a shampoo, and then back to flat the next day. All of my expensive uber-curl products are now mostly useless to me, and I certainly can't afford to spend tons of money on all-new expensive products. Any of you other ladies out there dealing with this weirdness?? Fortunately, I've found a couple solutions that you can buy at Target that I'm recommending today. Schedule
