    BAM. Finally found some cute aviators that fit my big, round head. They’re a little aggressive… I kind of feel like a cop but I’m bossy so I guess it’s ok.

    I first found these in NYC where they were $430.00 at Sunglass Hut, however online they are soooooooo much cheaper!

    To find just search:

    DOLCE & GABBANA SUNGLASSES DG 2075

    And you will find tons of options to purchase for about $195.00 bucks. This site says they will match any price, click here to purchase! These also come in blue, black & white/black.

    They are super comfy & cute. A great find by me :)

    Warning: Do not purchase if you have a narrow face as these fit wiiiide. Just how I like em.

    Gotta be out the door but your hair’s lookin a dirty mess? Have no fear, Big Sexy Dry Shampoo is here! I am not sure how I survived for soooo long without this product because it is for sure one of my top 10 faves of all time! Sooooo helpful for those days where your hair could use a wash, but you’re really just not in the mood to take on that chore.

    I wash my hair every 2-3 days, so on day 3 Big Sexy Hair Dry Shampoo is my best friend. So long hats, hello dry shampoo! The product goes on like a hairspray and is designed to absorb extra oil that accumulates in your hair on those days you can’t get to washin.

    How it works: Spray on roots or anywhere else that appears dull or dirty. Leave product on for 2 minutes and then brush out. Bam, volumized, clean hair!

    Reasons I love Big Sexy Hair Dry Shampoo:

    * Perfect for traveling or days where you have no time to wash your hair.

    * Goes on clear, not white!

    * Comes in a cute travel size, however I love it so much next time I will supersize it.

    * Volumizes better than any shampoo or product I’ve used before. It leaves your hair so dry that it holds teasing even better.

    Big Sexy Hair Volumizing Dry Shampoo $12.00

    When it comes to luggage, I need something sturdy, realll sturdy… I move around a lot. After the last 4 bags busted and broke, I realized it was time to invest in some real, big girl luggage. I went online to begin my search. Where to begin? I knew I needed something cute of course, but that wouldn’t fall apart after one Vegas trip. I’ve heard that Heys was a good brand so I began researching it more and reading their reviews. Once I confirmed that the brand was legit and did hold up well, I then began the quest for the cutest set. Pink was of course the first choice, but since everything I own is pink, I was in the mood to switch it up.

    I came across the Leopard Heys Luggage set and at first wasn’t into it. I thought 3 leopard bags? Too much leopard! But then I realized realistically, you really only travel with one bag at a time. The small bag for overnighters. The medium bag for Vegas trips, and the big daddy bag for longer trips… This 3 piece leopard set was perfect! Plus I’ve always wanted to try out a luggage that has the 4 wheelie things, they always seem to effortlessly glide across airport floors. I’ve been jealous far too long.

    Stylish but sturdy and definitely affordable! Click click, “Buy it Now”. It arrived almost instantly and I am off to put it to use! I will let you know how it holds up in a few weeks :)

    ***Note when Ebaying This: The site that I found the luggage on is back ordered until June 2011. You can also check Ebay just search: Heys leopard print luggage. Be careful though, many people sell Travel Concepts which is not Heys. A brand by Heys but not actual Heys. Make sure it says Heys and not Heys TC or Travel Concepts.
