Prayers for Japan

I would like to take a moment to reflect on the people of Japan who are facing so much pain and destruction at this time. I have always admired Japanese culture and traditions. It pains me to see the people of Japan facing what seems like an insurmountable task ahead of them. Every day that has passed this week has brought more sad developments, but I know that they will overcome this tragedy through prayer, unity and strength. Just wanted to take a minute to remember Japan.

Before Gaga...Madonna

I'm an 80's kid so I grew up listening to Madonna (or Madge as she is called by the British). Besides that you know by now that I love music...alot.

So when I saw this little shirt at Walmart, I said, why not? And it was only 5 dollars. Walmart has some pretty cool tees like this. I am kind of obsessed with "band" tees. I have one for The Doors, The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Hello Kitty (wait a second, she's not a singer). I love a face on a shirt for some reason! If I could I would wear my own face on a t-shirt like Paris Hilton does, but I think I have to be famous first to do that. People would be surprised to find tees like this in places like Walmart, Kmart and Target but that's pretty much where I find all of them. (Except for the bedazzled Rolling Stones shirt I found in H and M) Great casual shirts for singing, playing Rock Band or and relaxing in!

A Butler Bag Changed My Life

In addition to the latest fashions and beauty products, I like to feature items that can simplify and organize our lives. In the past I have spotlighted a scarf holder, boot shapers and many more, so I hope I am helping all my ladies find little helpers!

I bought a Butler Bag from Kmart a few years ago. But I felt it was bulky under my arm, so I took out the velcro organizer and I use it in my bags. But I wanted to buy the complete bag set again so I just did (on kmart.com)

Butler Bags were created by Jen Grover and they are awesome in terms of organization. The will literally change your life. She has two versions...a higher end leather collection and lower priced versions available at Kmart. The inside organizers are pretty fantastic. It's a little sturdier than the Kangaroo Keepers that are seen on tv. To get an idea of how they work, here's a look inside the bag I've been using this week with the organizer in place.

Here's a cute hobo style Butler Bag being offered at Avon...
