Designer Jeans

I rarely blog about jeans because I rarely find special pairs worth noting. I have come to realize that if you want jeans that are eye-catching, you better be prepared to pay the price.
Exhibit A: These Womens Skyline 10" Ankle Peg w/Zipper jeans in the Kingston shade are from Paige Denim and retail for $198 on the Paige USA website (see title link). Although it's hard to tell from the small image to the left, they feature ankle zippers, that gorgeous skinny style that shows off any figure, a 14" leg opening, and a 98% cotton material to keep you cozy and comfy in that 11.5 oz. of fabric. No doubt about it, jeans that fit well show. But are they really worth the price?

JB Jeans

I thought of a person who has some rockin' sneaker style and couldn't think of a single woman. So I had to resort to men, and yes, ladies, Justin Bieber is the winner. This guy has the best jeans and kicks taste ever (see title link)! The kid is FRESH.

Rihanna-esque Jewelry

I found this Kenneth Jay Lane bracelet in the black combo for $32.73 (see title link) on QVC, although it retails at $75. Buy it before it goes! I saw it on Rihanna in a magazine.

Finally! A hairspray that works

Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Solutions presents Style Professional Level Style Shaping Hair Spray. Its hold lasts for hours and is a perfect finish to your holiday look. It can help shape or reshape effortlessly. You can create and control all, leaving your hair with a beautiful texture, volume, and versatile, not to mention brushable. Don'e forget to spray at the roots! Costs $5.99 (see title link).

I saw Taylor Swift wearing a beautiful ring in a magazine photo shoot and found it was from Noir (see title link). Gorgeous and ready-to-purchase for the holidays!

Hot boots

Check out these beautiful boots from Wanted. They cost $49.99 and are the Throttle boot in the Tan shade (see title link). The Pull-On motorcycle inspired western bootie with studded harness are so edgy! Love them.

Smell great

One of the most sensual fragrances I have ever smelled, Fancy Nights by Jessica Simpson is a great find for a day when you just don't have time to put yourself together (see title link). Available at Macy's for $49 (for 1.7 oz), the Eau de Parfum is magically fragrant and so captivating!

Feel like a princess

Vera Wang is known for her bridal gowns, but her fragrances are no joke, either. Vera Wang Princess is a great perfume for a magical night, including even dark chocolate, amber, and musk. Also contains ripe pink guava and chiffon vanilla (see title link). Available at Sephora.

Earrings

These $10 earrings from AMI Clubwear will definitely take center stage at your next party (see title link).

Lipstick

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick uses LiquiSilk to seal in color and softness to condition your lips and look fashionable. My favorite color is Just Enough Buff (see title link).

Daisy Marc Jacobs is the perfect designer perfume, available at Sephora (see title link). It's feminine, vintage, eclectic, enchanting, spirited, you name it. Contains violet leaves, grapefruit, violet petals, jasmine, musk, and white woods! It's totally eternal.

Taylor Swift's fresh-faced look

As the new face of CoverGirl's NatureLuxe line, Taylor Swift has a beautiful complexion. To match it for yourself, try the Silk Foundation in Alabaster (see title link). Foundation Makeup is great to even out your face, and this one contains cucumber water, jojoba and rose hip extracts, and other ingredients to take out the heaviness that often comes with foundation. Costs just $12.

Voice

Your voice is SO important in this world. To express it, write and have it published (see title link). Tell a magazine what you think about its latest issue! Blog! Change the world!

Get that hair off!

Shaving can be SUCH a nuisance. Plucking, too. But have you tried waxing with Sally Hansen's Hair Remover Wax Strip Kit , for Body, Legs, Arms & Bikini (see title link)? It makes you hair free by just pressing it on and pulling off. Painful? Maybe a little, but the pre-waxed strips can be used wherever, whenever. Their effects last up to 8 weeks. Use Beauty that Works for the easiest way to wax. It works on short hair as well, and is dermatologist tested.

Makeup done right

I didn't realize I needed something underneath basic foundation until I found this number-1 studio secret: your skin will look beautiful with a #1 primer. L'oreal Paris Studio Secrets Professional Magic Perfecting Base provides instant results, hiding pores and fine lines, keep your skin feeling resurfaced, and can be used under any foundation (see title link).

Seventeen

Check out this month's issue of Seventeen magazine! It features Taylor Swift and is the Party issue (see title link)!

Cute Boots

It's hard to find a balance between stylish and durable when it comes to winter boots, but Womens Timberland Mount Holly Boot in the Bone shade (pictured) is perfect. The Earthkeepers boot is warm and waterproof, designed with eco-friendly, recycled rubber soles. 42% recycled materials, 60% recycled cotton laces, and recycled fleece lining. They cost $129.99 at Journeys but are well worth it.

Funny Stories

Everyone has had humiliating moments. Some traumaramas even involve driving lessons! I used to be petrified to parallel park, but now I'm a pro (see title link).

Boys Boys Boys

Want to buy the Bebe dress that Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola rocked at this year's MTV VMA's? You can find it for a cheaper cost than most red carpet dresses (see title link).
But check out her guy: he doesn't mind girls flirting with him, he hates accepting the blame for it, and Sammi needs to save herself from heartache. Is he even worth the fight? That's the bottom line.

Celebrate Good Times!

I've been on a total perfume kink lately, but I've found so many great ones! For a Saturday night dinner with my friends, I chose Mark Celebrate Eau de Toilette, which costs just $25 for 1 oz. It's a mix of citrus petals and marshmallow musk, which just screams fun wherever you go. It feels indulgent without breaking the bank.

Spicy Scents

I enjoy sleeping in as much as the next person, but Black Friday is definitely a must for me to cap off a restful Thanksgiving. I love visiting Macy's to see their holiday decorations. This year my splurge purchase was Givenchy Play for Her Eau de Parfum Intense (see title link). It's pricey, at $73 for a 1.7 oz. bottle, but so spicy! It contains fresh orchids to show off your sweet side and peppercorn to hint of your secret wild one.
