Get Smooth for Summer with the New NAIR Moroccan Argan Oil Line


Get smooth all summer long with Nair's NEW Moroccan Argan Oil line

Summer's just around the corner, and that's why I'm so excited to be teaming up with NAIR to celebrate their new Moroccan Argan Oil collection - the only at-home hair removal product line infused with 100 percent natural Moroccan Argan Oil!

We all know Moroccan Argan Oil is where it's at when it comes to things like our hair – so why not our skin?! I will take anything that makes summer shaving more pleasant and less time-consuming, and that's why I'm loving the new Nair line. It's a beauty must-have for Memorial Day Weekend when you just want to throw on some shorts and sandals and relax – and not worry about stubble. Trips to the spa can be costly and time-consuming, and that's why Nair is such a lifesaver. You can get that spa experience (minus the awkwardness of getting waxed by a stranger!) with spa results at home at a fraction of the price.

Pastels always feel right for spring, from your clothes to your fingertips. This season, icy pastels like blues, mints and really pale pinks were all over the runways. Inspired by this trend and the latest nail colors from Sally Hansen, I created a chic & easy icy pastel polka-dot manicure using Sally Hansen Insta-Dry in Blue Away and Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure in Gilty Party (get both at Target!).

Wear Gold, Win Gold During 'May Is Gold Month'


May is Gold Month


Did you know? May is Gold Month and it's in its 11th year, celebrating the love of all things Karat Gold, from fashion-forward to everyday classic gold jewelry. In honor of this fashionable anniversary, I'm sharing one of my favorite pieces of gold jewelry from my personal collection - my 14 Karat Gold antique "snake" ring from my Grandmother. It's meaningful because it's unique, just like my Grandmother, and the gold offsets the tiny diamonds and rubies (my birthstone!) so well. I love to layer it with other delicate gold pieces, like my initial ring, and some gold bangles. May is the perfect time to wear gold since the weather's warming up and gold pairs beautifully with colors like coral, turquoise and white. It's also the perfect time to treat yourself to gold must haves (think classic hoops, the perfect gold chain bracelet or gold boyfriend watch). Plus, gold makes a great gift, from Mother's Day and graduations, to bridal showers, weddings and anniversaries!

May is Gold Month is also hosting three amazing giveaways! Read on for the details...
