My Savvy Holiday Tips!

No Comments

I do a lot of shopping, and whether shopping online, or on a tight budget, I have some great tips to make getting through the holiday shopping season a little easier. This is a pretty easy post since I do most of these things! ;)Never buy online without searching for a coupon code!One of my FAVE websites is Retail Me Not. You search by retailer/website and can find any coupon codes that exist out in the cyber world. I have saved tons of money this way! Some sites even let you use more than one coupon code at a time. Don’t waste your money on expensive wrapping paper and ribbonsDollar stores have some great inexpensive wrapping supplies. They offer wrapping paper, bows, rippons, gift bags, and tissue paper. Sometimes I have found tissue paper printed with patterns or designs, and was able to use that as wrapping paper for smaller…

1 Comment

If you haven’t yet heard, OPI and Dell have teamed up so that you can now get a Dell Mini, Inspiron, or Studio laptop in one of your fave OPI shades. There are currently 20 of OPI’s classic colors to choose from, and six limited time shades (currently now from the Holiday Collection), which will vary by season. These OPI models are currently available in the Dell Design Studio, and select OPI shades will be sold in retail outlets. As Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive Vice President & Artistic Director, stated, “And now, with Dell laptops that coordinate with OPI Nail Lacquers, you can match your nails to your emails!” Well said Suzi. These new OPI color matching laptops are the new, ultimate accessory! You can also check out the color selection on OPI’s website (where I took the screenshots from).

Fall is in the Air

No Comments

I love Fall. I love the cool, crisp weather (although here in South Florida, it takes a while for it to get here), I love pumpkin everything–pie, candles, bread, coffee, and a few months ago, I came across a product which I fell in love with, and it seems fitting to share it with you for Fall.It’s Slatkin & Co. Concentrated Room Spray in Kitchen Spice from Bath and Body Works. Now, if you’re thinking “Kitchen Spice?”, yes I know it might not sound like it would smell delightfully like fall but o-m-g, does it! I like it better than their cinnamon, vanilla, and even pumpkin scents (

Now You Can Look AND Smell “Very Hollywood”

No Comments

Michael Kors and Sephora are bringing you a chic, glamorous Very Hollywood Solid Perfume Cocktail Ring. If you love MK’s Very Hollywood scent, you are going to love this ring.The ring is luxurious, and stylish, and has the notes of Mandarin, Gardenia, and Vetiver that Michael Kors’ newer Very Hollywood fragrance is known for. The ring is $40, so it’s a great deal for getting a chic cocktail ring along with the solid perfume.The ring is a pretty large piece, but still doesn’t look gaudy. It only comes in a size 7, but if your index, middle, or ring fingers aren’t a size 7, this piece would still look great for show on top of your dresser, or it’s convenient and light enough to keep in your purse so that you can apply/reapply perfume when you’re on the go! It’s only available at Sephora, and you can order it online.

Cheap Polish Finds for Fall

No Comments

While I was going about some errands at my local Walmart, I came across two great shades of Pure Ice nail polish that are perfect (and cheap!) finds for the Fall.First, is Kiss Me Here. After doing a little research, I found out the the Pure Ice brand is part of a larger umbrella brand called, Bari Cosmetics Ltd. I visited the website hoping to find some photos of my new found polish purchases, however, the image they had for Kiss Me Here (the gray shade below), looked nothing like the actual product I purchased. You can see there’s here (it looks like there’s glitter in it), and compare it to the picture I took below.I have been craving a flat/non-shimmery gray to add to my polish collection, and was thinking about purchasing Essie’s new Chinchilly shade, but this polish prices in at $2, and was the exact gray I…
