The Price of Beauty Last night was a night of pure luxury. Why? I had my hair highlighted at “my house” by an amazing stylist, Casey Schlachta. We talked, laughed and had a blast and the whole time I’m getting foils put in my hair to give me that perfect blond to carry me through one more month. What? You thought those blonde strands came naturally. Oh yes, you’re right. They do…really. I felt very diva like and fabulous as dear, sweet Casey did Madeline’s (my son’s girlfriend) and my hair. This was totally decadent and ultimate fabulousness. Casey is the stylist for my son’s group, Cinema Sleep and she wanted to put a little champage pink (oddly enough there is no pink involved L ) in Madeline’s hair for a photo shoot and stopped by to do so. My house was the rendezvous point. I was the lucky recipient of a spontaneous highlight( which is definitely better than spontaneous combustion). It was...

If I Had a Daughter

If I had a daughter, what I would say to her... Be Happy! Use your brain and not your heart to make decisions. Don't buckle under pressure, whether the pressure is from someone you love or peer pressure. Trust your gut. It will never lead you wrong. Listen...to others but mostly to the little inward voice that seems to be on your shoulder. Never make a decision in a fit of anger or without walking away and thinking about what you're doing. You have a very important voice. Use it. Don't ever be silenced. Take risks. Be a vixen in the bedroom and a siren in the Boardroom. Use Sunscreen (and botox if you should need it :). Follow your heart, but don't let it get you lost. Don't ever let anyone make you think your opinion doesn't count, because it does. Find a man who loves you for you and doesn't want to change you. Love a man you don't want to change. Travel and inhale deeply to enjoy all in life you can. Don't t...
Seeing the World through Rose Colored Glasses

Some people think the sky is blue. Mostly I see it as pink. . I have often said that if I could paint the world pink, I would. I think Pink is the most fabulous color in the universe and just looking at my pink board on Pinterest makes me smile and brightens my morning. I wear pink when I can, use pink accessories, and have also been accused of seeing the world through rose colored glasses. I shared one of my favorite photos this morning….my pink pig adorned in lipstick and pearls. Now there is a lot that could be said about that picture and why on earth I like it so much. First of all, you already know that I love pink and this is a pink pig….she also has pink lipstick and as a bonus, she’s wearing pearls. I’m also imagining those hooves are painted in a very bright pink OPI color to make her even more stunning (if that’s possible). And she’s wearing rose colored glasses and I thin...
Isn't it fabulous that Election 2012 is history?

I think it’s fabulous that the election of 2012 is OVER and that we can get back to the task of hand of just being Americans, because we still rock! I love us! We have the most fabulous lives …still! Where else in the world could you speak so openly about your own opinions and be so blatantly against the leader of a country or his opponent. Democracy was truly at work and this was definitely a test in freedom of speech as barbs flew both ways between the the parties and we were allowed to say what we think with no repercussions. The sun came up this morning shining on America, signaling that we are still “One Nation Under God”. And so we are. What could be more fabulous than that?

I started this blog on August 10, 2010 and called it Everything Fabulous because I wanted to write about things that make me feel wonderful. I haven't written much (and I like to write), so that has caused me to really think about why? Is the world around me less fabulous? I don't think so. What is going on with me that I don't write about all those things fabulous (and there are so many)! The thing I've discovered (and this is SO fabulous) is that those things that make you smile and feel good do not start from the external stimuli in our lives. They have an affect but it has to start from within. If you don't feel fabulous inside, those things you love, that make you smile, won't have the same impact. Of course, experts and wise men through the ages say that you have to reach within (hence the huge section of Self Help books in every bookstore). But how many of us really take it to heart?...
