Are you eating “real” food? Food for a healthy and hot human woman…as opposed to food to feed say, a vending machine? You know what I’m talking about and if not get yourself educated stat! The old adage “you are what you eat” may not be spot on when it comes to making a healthy humanperson but it is a place to start. There’s stuff you should eat if you want to look and feel good and there is definitely stuff you shouldn’t even look at let alone put in your belly.
Unfortunately in this day and age the stuff you shouldn’t eat is in large and overwhelming supply. But the good news is Continue reading [365day Beauty] 5 Tips about food that make a gorgeous body
Woke up today feeling quite blue. It’s probably a mixture of pre-menstrual bs, the dreary cold weather outside, and my stop-n-start internet connection. Oh yeah, and I read on Shopstyle that today is the “most depressing day of the year”. Gawd. Hard to get stuff done and have enthusiasm for interesting projects when you feel like punching a hole in the universe with your screaming or crying till your eyes bleed huh? Yeah? We girls are sensitive and passionate creatures.
So instead of getting my female freak out on I decided to get Continue reading [365day Attitude] A girl’s Monday playlist to fight winter blues
I did my nails the other day – hand painting dark grey on a set of white acrylic tips. Love the look of it but the longer nails are a leetle obnoxious to type with as my talons tap against the rows above my fingers. Ever run into that problem? I get by and it’s not terrible but I’m glad I’m not a stenographer.
Most of the time I can combine my need for daily glamour with my work duties just fine – high heels? check! signature perfume? check check! designer bra? yes indeedy! Just as long as I can walk, think, and type I’m pretty much set for some productivity.
There are occasional Continue reading [365day Beauty] Glamour while working
Do you perpetually try and strive for that perfect work/life balance? I’ve got news for you…that perfect balance, ain’t comin. One day your job wants more from you, the next it’s your boyfriend. Even at your job you can get tugged in one direction from your boss and another from your co-workers. And in your personal life the balance tips with your health, your sex life, etc. etc. (say for example for 3 weeks you feel super frisky until your period hits and then you seriously consider the celibate lifestyle of a nun). So seeing your life as something that needs to balance yourself upon like a tightrope or try and balance like a teeter totter ain’t all that effective.
But laundry – that’s a bit easier of a concept to wrap your head around I think. Continue reading [365day Lifestyle] Treat your life like your laundry Part 2: Sort!
It may seem a bit weird but I find a lot of psychological satisfaction from plucking my eyebrows. It’s a little thing really but does wonders at calming me down sometimes if I get a little riled up by work stuff or personal stuff or whatever. There’s other beautifying rituals I have in my life that not only make look better but also feel better and don’t require much time or effort. Painting my nails, putting on a little makeup, wearing a pretty top that compliments my skin tone – all sorts of wonderful little pick-me-ups I can benefit from. Beauty is more than just creating a pleasing surface to look at I think, or glamming it up for a special occasion – it’s found in the every day and can easily make you feel good about yourself when you look deeper.
What are your favorite beautifying rituals? How do they make you feel more than just a pretty face to behold?
Chick flicks are normally considered to be weepy, sappy, estrogen enhancing experiences in entertainment that only really please the female gender right? I don’t really watch too many of those. When it comes to female characters and girl role models I like em fierce, fiesty, rockin, and gutsy. It’s hella motivating to watch a beautiful woman take matters into her own hands and test her strength in the world. I don’t care if it’s fictional or magical – all I care is that a girl makes a legend out of herself from the beginning of the film to the finale.
Here’s 10 movies that are a must see in your library: Continue reading [365day Fun] 10 Flicks with Chicks that Kick A$$
