A Lace Affair

Sounds so racy, doesn't it?  A lace affair?

Lace Affair has great quality, whimsical clothing.  I love me some lace, and this site certainly does the trick.  Some of the tops look like they belong in another era; like something I'd see on the set of Mad Men.

A few of my personal faves...

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why I have a hard time saving money.

Hair Extensions

I always laugh when I watch trash TV, and some girl is carrying on about her weave.  What I don't understand, however, is why EVERY GIRL ON EARTH is not using hair extensions.  This is coming from a girl who's had long hair for most of her adult life.

I love having long hair, but there are so many drawbacks...

• Salon services cost more
• Takes twice as long to color/blowdry/flat-iron
• Curls fall out faster
• Twice as much product needed - $$$
• Shedding on clothes and/or furniture is much more noticeable
• Damage

I can't emphasize that last one enough.  My ends are disgusting.  The split ends are visible.  Even my dog notices.  He likes me anyways.

I came across an extension tutorial that reminded me of how fantastic hair extensions are.  Luxy Hair Extensions are pretty reasonably priced as well.  I should have mentioned this from the beginning...clip-ins are the way to go.  Even with my long hair, I like wearing clip-ins if I'm too busy/lazy/drunk/____ to curl my hair.  They keep the curl, they look natural and healthy, and it's so easy.

There.  Making girls gorgeous, one blog post at a time.
