Today started off beautifully. I woke up to a winter wonderland. We got approximately 16 inches of snow…a few days late, would have preferred this on Christmas morning. Is there anything better than a White Christmas? But the storm was sandwiched nicely between Christmas and New Year’s, so it counts as festive and inspiring. I […]

No, that is not a typo in the subject line. Yes, the line is traditionally “slow and steady” and is usually followed by “wins the race” but this post is not about being slow and steady. It is not about winning (or losing for that matter). It is actually taken from a comment in author […]

I continually find myself caught off guard by the collision of my expectations and the reality of what I end up experiencing. After bracing myself for a treacherous trip to the mall to finish up my last minute Christmas shopping, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed my trip! To think that three […]

I am in the center of the most beautiful city in the world. A world I never thought in my wildest imagination that I would be visiting with Oprah Winfrey. As part of this amazing “Ultimate Australian Adventure” the details I can give at this stage in the game are few and far between but […]

December 2, 2010 1 Comment
Sometimes I do things that really emphasize how girlie and silly I can be. Today was one of those days. I bought a body spray at PINK because I liked the look of the bottle! Yes. I really did this. Did I smell it first? Nope. But do I love the way it looks on […]

I am packing for a very big trip next week and am trying desperately to figure out what the essentials are that I need to bring. I’m heading to Australia with The Oprah Winfrey Show and I am hoping to blog while I am there…so stay tuned. They have kept everything very hush hush so […]

THE DOUBLE WALLED TUMBLER! I was searching for a cup earlier today to put ice water in and I stumbled across my brother’s Starbucks tumbler. Do you want to know why it’s AWESOME?? Because it doesn’t “sweat”. Do you know what I mean? When a cup of ice water gets all beaded up with water […]

I keep hearing great things about MAC and I can’t believe I don’t own a stitch of MAC makeup?! It is probably the number one makeup product talked about and blogged about and I think it’s time that I jump on the MAC bandwagon! Here are the products that may be coming home with me […]

November 24, 2010 2 Comments
I am officially obsessed with the way JCrew is taking on the holidays. Everything is sparkling and glittering like diamonds. This particular little number will look absolutely perfect paired with a “Little Black Dress” for a holiday party. It is simple and elegant and dresses up any outfit. You will be amazed at how your […]

In an interview with Bella Sugar, actress Diana Kruger gave readers a tiny glimpse into her makeup and skincare routine. Because I am obsessed with finding out what products the A-Listers use, I thought I would share what I learned. [Side Note: I once stopped Julianne Moore in an airport to ask her what cleanser/moisturizer […]

After Oprah announced yesterday that one of her “Favorite Things” was Philosophy’s Hope in a Jar, today Philosophy now has the news that they are being acquired by Coty for (reportedly) $ 1 Billion. Coty is the world’s largest fragrance company, and holds brands including Calvin Klein, Kenneth Cole and Davidoff.

This morning I realized that I have been doing my body a disservice. I have been using boring “soap” in the shower. I don’t know what I was thinking or why it never occurred to me to bring a little luxury to my shower. And when luxury comes in an affordable $5.99 (PINK!) bottle, it’s […]

November 23, 2010 Leave a Comment
Following the suggestion of another beauty blogger, Miss Glamorazzi, I purchased the following items at my local CVS tonight. I haven’t tested them out, except for the L’Oreal Colour Riche Lipstick in Fairest Nude…which I already adore! You can tell that I am going for a very neutral palette but with clean, sharp eyes. Cover […]

You can expect more than one post about Oprah’s Favorite Things on Daily Moxie. I live for these shows and this year, as Oprah’s Final Farewell, she outdid herself by doing TWO Favorite Things Shows. As I compile my own Christmas list, I thought I would share one of the items I am now lusting […]

Nails are one of the most overlooked accessories. A particular nail color can change your whole style and can really give you a polished (no pun intended) look. I have recently discovered the beauty of really dark nails. They add a sophisticated glamour to any style and make your jewelry pop and sparkle like never […]

As a curly-haired girl, I am so used to seeing the shiny, sleek, straight hair flowing down the runways and across the pages in my favorite magazines. So you can imagine how thrilled I was to see the designer Tibi use models with flowing curls to strut their stuff down her runway! Also, on a […]

There are moments when I feel that my time is not my own. People pulling at me from all directions. Wanting something from me. Wanting my words, my advice, my thoughts, even just my presence. More often than not I want desperately to give my time to these people, these loved ones or colleagues. I […]
