Detox Smoothie – Day 3

I was feeling dizzy, light-headed and sleepy yesterday, and that was because I didn’t have any of my Tulsi Organic Green Tea, I didn’t make that mistake again today. I stopped in at Native Juice but they were out of my detox soup, I had to improvise and have my favorite smoothie at Juice Shop,Continue reading “Detox Smoothie – Day 3”

City Girl in Red Lipstick – Frida Kahlo

I always felt a connection with Frida Kahlo, because we were both born with uni-brows. However I over tweezed and since have been in eyebrow rehab, but that’s another story. I love Frida’s work and have several retablos of her paintings, but my favorite is the one of Diego Rivera that shows him holding hisContinue reading “City Girl in Red Lipstick – Frida Kahlo”

Model recommended Haircare – Leonor Greyl

With too many birthdays and holidays I realized I was in danger of gaining my weight back, so far IContinue reading “Detoxing – The 2nd Day”

Le Weekend – Sonoma

I don’t know about you guys, but extensive travel for me these past few years has been out of the question, I just simple don’t have the budget for European excursions. However my sisters and I made it to Sonoma this past weekend, it started off just being a visit to the annual Bottle RockContinue reading “Le Weekend – Sonoma”

On My Wish List – Brazilian Jewels

My sister Wendy and I have been fashion magazine and catalog junkies since we were in our teens, with our favorite magazines being the European versions like British Elle, Paris Vogue etc. Why? Because they are ahead of whatever is going on around here, including beauty, music, literature, film and jewelery. Wendy is a jeweleryContinue reading “On My Wish List – Brazilian Jewels”
