Hairspray and Tonic, Anyone? Non-Toxic Hairspray That WORKS

Filed under: Hair Care, Green Fashion



How many of you have ever gotten hairspray in your eye, or breathed too much of it in, and really suffered from it? We definitely have, on more occasions than we care to admit. But, we also have to say that we've been nervous about trying a non-toxic hairspray in case it just didn't work. However, after seeing this video from EcoStiletto, we're feeling considerably more confident. Check it out for yourself and let us know if, for one thing, you'd try it, and for another, if you'd drink it!

Hair Raising Star Styles

    Jada Pinkett Smith
    Please tell us this mullet chop job is for a movie. When Jada's hair is slightly grown out, shiny and sleek, its easy to see why she and her hunky hubby are considered one of Hollywood's most stylish couples.

    At her best, Katherine Heigl successfully channels Veronica Lake. But with too much product, her locks are dingy: No self-respecting bridesmaid would ever leave the house with hair that looks like it was inspired by "There's Something About Mary".

    Only Bo Derek could be a perfect "10" in cornrows. Her new mommy makeover included trading her Dirrty 'do for Marilyn Monroe-inspired platinum blonde waves

    Posh pioneered the blunt bob trend -- and it suits her no-nonsense fashion style perfectly. In this uptight up-do (r.), she looks like she's taking her reputation as an ice queen a little too seriously

    Mary-Kate Olsen
    She's known for her eccentric style, but Mary Kate's Marc Jacobs' headband is less modern fashion icon, more Jane Fonda (circa 1982).

    Hey, Fergie -- Bret Michaels wants his look back. The star is far more Glamorous when she wears her honey hair wavy and free.

    Scarlett Johansson
    Scarlett's super-poufy beehive doesn't create much buzz. A more natural style (l.) suits the pretty young star.

    Hey Alicia -- No One should be using the "Coneheads" for fashion inspiration! Keys' classic beauty shines in her natural curls.

Fashionable food and drink for your Kentucky Derby Party

Filed under: Fashionable Food




A stylish party is one part fabulous atmosphere, one part gorgeous guests, and one part fashionable food and drink -- a Kentucky Derby party is no exception.

First things first -- you can't celebrate the Derby without serving up mint juleps. This is the traditional drink of the Kentucky Derby, made of sugar, water, mint, and bourbon (or variations thereof). Ideally, they should be served in a chilled, silver cup (which are fun gifts for your guests to take home).

Must-have accessory for Sex and the City movie: Cutesy Heart Flask

Filed under: Fashionable Food, Accessories

Who better than Patricia Field, stylist for the Sex and the City gals, to give us the perfect accessory for the Sex and the City movie? Well, truth be told, I'm sure there are lots of must-haves. I mean, you can't go without Manolos on your feet and a Carrie Bradshaw-approved bag on your arm, right?

Well, even better, or at least far less expensive, is the Cutesy Heart Flask. At just $26, it's totally affordable, and useful. You could fill it up with, you know, hot chocolate, or soda, or the obvious -- COSMOS -- before hitting the movie theater for the big premiere and feel right at home with Carrie, Miranda, Samantha, and Charlotte.

Although, since we're talking about a feature length movie, you might want to bring two of them since they only hold 6 oz. each. That way, if the movie isn't meeting your expectations, you don't have to worry because you probably won't remember it anyway!

Bottoms up! Give the Betsey Johnson Stirred Pantini Shaker for Valentine's Day

Filed under: Swimwear and Lingerie




Trying to decide on a gift for the special lady in your life this Valentine's Day? Should you give her something funny? Sexy? Practical? Why not hit all of the above (sort of) with Betsey Johnson's Stirred Pantini Shaker?

  • Funny -- Okay, you've got panties stuffed inside a martini shaker. There's no way that's not going to bring on a giggle or two.

  • Sexy -- Betsey Johnson isn't going to give you plain old granny panties, that's for sure. Each shaker contains three low-rise thongs embellished with lace trim, a small bow, and rhinestone detail.

  • Practical -- Well, embellished thongs might not be the most practical undies you can find, but put that together with a cool martini shaker, and I think you've given a gift that will be totally useful. Think about it: A martini or two now, pretty panties later ...
Happy Valentine's Day to all!


Celebrate good...beer?

Filed under: Fashionable Food

We're deep into the cool days of autumn, and soon the frigid nights of winter will arrive. With the changing of the seasons, the brewmasters of the world bring us a little something special: seasonal beers. Last night, it was cold and rainy here in Georgia, and I decided it was time to tap into the world of a winter brew.

My choice? Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale. I had a couple reasons for my pick: (1) I'm of a fan of the year-round Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, (2) The label was so enticing -- I just couldn't resist. The picture of the snow-covered cottage and Christmas-colored text made it feel like December (and it just looks cool).

I'm usually one to pick more of a rare brew, rather than mainstream, but the Celebration Ale is just plain good. It's got a very strong taste ("robust" in beer terminology) and will leave that warm, satisfied feeling in your stomach and in your face. The Sierra Nevada website lists several awards for this ale, along with a quote from the San Francisco Chronicle: "...best beer ever made in America."

It's always more interesting to try beers like this, instead of sticking to the standard brews!
