I Love Supporting Women-Owned Businesses
February 15th, 2010 — LA fun, beauty, biz, check it out, shopping
So a while back, I mentioned the awesome LA Cupcake Tour I was lucky to go on thanks to the Best of Tours folks and GM/Chevy. This time around, the Best of Tours/Chevy gang were partnering with CraveLA for their take on the Best of Women Owned Businesses in Los Angeles.
A little full disclosure before [...]
Is It Possible to Vacation Without First Shopping?
December 14th, 2009 — life, shopping, travel
Hello, my name is Kat and I’d like to make a little confession…
I can’t seem to take a vacation (no matter how short), without first having to shop and pamper myself a bit.
The worst part, I know this about myself and typically try to stop myself from doing this and wait until the last possible [...]
It’s That Time of Year Again
November 7th, 2009 — eat & drink, shopping
And no, I’m not talking Christmas. Nope, I’m talking cooking! Winter cooking (you know, the only time I can actually cook).
Better still, holiday cooking.
Any other time of the year, I can walk away from magazine; cooking, entertaining, decorating, womens, you name it. But as soon as the “holiday” features start to show up on the [...]
Weird Fashion Related Mistakes
November 4th, 2009 — life lessons, shopping, whatnots
I never said I was a fashion plate. In fact, I blogged about being fashionably challenged some time over the summer. While I have gotten a bit more fashionable since I started teaching again – I mean, considering I can’t teach in yoga pants and sweats – I’ve still got a lot to learn.
The other [...]
Working On This Green Thing
October 13th, 2009 — beauty, life, shopping, whatnots
On the one hand, I’m totally on the bandwagon and have been for years. I was raised recycling and making our own household products. I’ve been refusing bags or bringing my own bags places long before it was all sorts of trendy and cool (I love my mini-Rume bag and keep one in my purse [...]
Why Didn’t Someone Tell Me Sooner?
October 12th, 2009 — gratitude, shopping
I’ve said it before, but I’ve never been the kind of gal that goes crazy for shoes. Flip flops maybe, but not shoes. And certainly not heels.
I think one of the many reasons why I love my flip flops so much is that they don’t need time to break them in. There’s no painful rubbing [...]
Just call me a Bag Hag and Bring On the New Purse!
September 25th, 2009 — shopping
I’ll admit it, actually, I’ll admit two things…1) if you haven’t figured it out yet, I’m a plus-sized gal and 2) I love me some purses.
What does one have to do with the other? Well, as a plus-size gal, our fabulous fashion choices are often quite limited. This of course leaves [...]
Looking for the Perfect Eye Shadow
June 21st, 2009 — life, shopping, whatnots
I’m on a quest. Much like I was looking for the best drugstore mascara not all too long ago (found it…Maybelline Stiletto). This time around, I’m looking for the perfect all over eyeshadow. You know, that one shadow that you can wear daily that doesn’t necessarily look like you’re wearing shadow, but just kind of [...]
It’s Monday So Let’s Have a Giveaway!
June 15th, 2009 — check it out, shopping
Enter for Your Chance to Win an Envirosax Bag!
The good folks from Envirosax contacted me and asked if I’d be interested in doing a giveaway here. I’m all about using reusable bags for shopping that you better believe I jumped at the opportunity.
The goal was to get it up about a week ago and tell [...]
Makeup Primers, Oh How I Love Thee
June 4th, 2009 — life lessons, shopping
I’ve known about makeup primers for a couple years now. I remember before I moved out here to LA, my girlfriend was in love with a particular primer (I don’t think Smashbox had their product out just yet). She’d pick up a new tube any time she came out here to LA. [...]
