I stumbled upon Bridal Canvas today and wanted to spread the word on the latest and greatest online inspiration board generator. Specifically geared toward brides, Bridal Canvas works much like predecessors such as Polyvore with the added bonus of literally dozens of preloaded wedding-related images and the ability to upload photos directly from your computer [...]

While getting my hair done a week or so ago for the holidays, I had the chance to flip through the January issue of Self while my color processed. I was so excited to see a fitness feature with Jillian Michaels and even more excited to find an exclusive fitness video featuring Jillian’s 1 month [...]

I imagine things will be rather post-heavy around here the next few days as I fight to get all of the thoughts and updates out of my head and into words. So in the spirit of getting right to it, first thing first – I believe I owe you details on a particular Bookmark the [...]
