Toward the end of last summer, I was asked to do a tutorial on how to create beachy waves for short hair. I thought since the season was nearly over, it was kind of pointless at the time. But then Southern California went and did the usual never-ending summer thing (bleh) so, I guess now is as good a time as…

5 More Friday Confessions
Running late. Gotta get Stevie from school. Hurry hurry. Out the door. Crap forgot my phone. Can’t find my phone. Where is it? Seriously!! Stupid phone. Couch cushions! Nope. Charger! Nope. Oh well, guess I’ll worry about it later. It’s got to be somewhere around here. Cut to 2 hours later: Oh, it’s in my…
DIY: How to Distress Stretch Jeans
These are perfectly good jeggings. (Spell check tells me “jeggings” is not a word, but we all know better, right? It’s a terrible word, but a word nonetheless.) And in fact, these jeggings are so perfectly good, that I might have a second back-up pair in storage. I was just ready to change up the…

That moment when you spend all evening on the phone trying to track down your wallet at every location you’ve been to in the last 3 days, only to find it under the front seat of your car. I SWEAR I looked there first! A young guy in the mall parking lot told me I looked “hot” (!!!) Haven’t heard that…
Un-Fancy Guest Post
Good morning troops! Remember when I went to Austin a couple weeks ago? (You can catch the photos here.) That trip was taken to meet style bloggers Caroline (of Unfancy) and Jacquelyn (of JustJacq). We had so much fun, but guess what? We actually got a lot of work done too. Well today is the day.…
5 More Friday Confessions: Airport Edition
Bringing a giant scarf with me is one of the smartest traveling decisions I’ve ever made. It was easy to wear without using up my valuable arm space, it worked as a blanket when I was freezing on the plane, and when I got sleepy, I rolled it up and used it as a neck pillow. I…
5 More Friday Confessions
At any given moment, regardless of what I’m doing, I can almost guarantee I’d rather be watching Shark Tank in bed with my husband. Anyone else ever cried over the Honda “Helpful Honda-days” holiday radio commercials? Yeah, me either… Ok, one time. I just spoke the 6 words a husband never wants to hear “I just…

5 More Friday Confessions
Oh my gosh, I totally did one more craft last night. It was an emergency crafting situation. I’m done for real now. When a sales clerk sees me with my hands full of items chasing Stevie around, picking him up off the floor, trying to keep him busy and then turns to me with a…
5 More Friday Confessions
My nails have been unpolished for two weeks. I hate it. But it’s easy. I’m trying so hard to get in the Christmas spirit this year that I have been crafting. CRAFTING YO. Nobody said they were good crafts, but they are happening. Pom-pomming like a mofo. And speaking of Christmas, I’ve got almost all…
