Plus-sized Asian-inspired Fashion

  • posted February 8th, 2010
  • Fashion


Asian fashions are so unusual and cool-looking, but they do tend to size very, very small, and if your frame is anything larger than tiny, you can have a lot of trouble finding Asian clothes that fit.  If you’re plus-sized, well, basically you can forget it… or at least that’s how it used to be.  More and more Asian clothing designers are making their fashions for all sizes, which is a welcome change.

Check out this plus-sized chiffon-hem dress from Japanese brand SmileLand – it’s cute, it’s great for spring, and it has that distinct Japanese street style look about it (really cute!).  You might have to study the very complicated sizing chart to work out which size you need to order, but this dress is a very loose fit, so the sizing should be pretty forgiving if you get it slightly wrong.  This is a great dress to wear with tights and boots!

Let’s Talk Kids Pajamas

There’s something so cute about kids in pajamas.  Maybe it’s that we know that some peace and quite is in the foreseeable future.  Or maybe it’s just that they look so sweet and innocent all snuggled up in a cozy pair of pjs.  Footed sleepers, especially the fleece ones in the winter, are great for the cooler seasons.  That is, until your child is potty trained.  After that, no matter how cute they look, they just aren’t practical anymore.  Then it’s time for big kid jammies!  Don’t worry- they will still look adorable in a pair of pajama pants with the matching collared button down top (like the Star Wars ones from Pottery Barn pictured above).

Snuggle up with your kids and enjoy some quality time with them before bed- they’ll be all grown up before you know it!

Winter Errand Clothes – Merona Microfleece Pants

  • posted February 8th, 2010
  • Fashion


It’s getting to that end part of winter where things get particularly nasty – wind, rain, sleet, and still a lot of snow in places.  Winter coats take care of a lot of the problem, but my legs still get frozen every single time I go out, and it’s annoying that so many nice-looking pairs of pants are so thin.

Now, I’m not saying I’d wear these to a social event, obviously, but as far as going out to run errands is concerned, you can certainly put together a decent-looking outfit with these Merona microfleece pants from Target.  At $15, they’re a steal, and they look and feel a lot nicer than your average sweat pants.  Best of all, they’re warm – a lot warmer than the thinness of the fabric would indicate.  Don’t be fooled by the fact that they’re polyester, because these look great and will keep you warm until spring starts rolling in.

The Beauty of a Bucket Basket

  • posted February 8th, 2010

I think it’s safe to say, after having lived with a man for a fair few months now, that men are decidedly more messy than women (at least, this specific man surely is more messy than this specific woman).

There’s deodorant everywhere in my apartment. A stick in the bedroom, a stick in the kitchen. What’s with all the sticks?

There’s Body Glide (a runner’s best friend, I’m told) and headphones, months of unopened mail and Netflix DVDs strewn haphazardly about.

And I must say, I’m left feeling a bit, well, disheveled. As much as I don’t want to be a maid, or a nag, I also don’t want to live in the messiness.

The perfect solution: this beautiful Apple Bucket Basket. It’s cute, and it hides all the teeny, tiny toiletries and other things that would normally cause a fight. So now, instead of random objects every which way in the apartment, or me moving things so that the boy can’t find them, all he has to do is put them away in their proper place, in the great little Apple Bucket Basket. Yet another domestic problem solved.

Face Spring Slush in Style – Kenneth Cole Midnight Rain Boots

As we slowly head into the slushy part of the year where winter meets spring, there’s always the issue of finding footwear that’s suitable for dealing with the elements.  If you live or work in an urban area, the mixture of snow with traffic results in that brown, icy mess everywhere, and as you already know it can wreak havoc on your beautiful (and expensive!) shoe collection.

Luckily there’s a fashionable way around the problem, thanks to Kenneth Cole – these Midnight Rain rubber boots.  Aside from protecting up to the knee and being 100% weatherproof, they’re also very nice-looking, not just in comparison to other rubber boots, but in general.  As a bonus, Kenneth Cole are donating all the net profits from the sale of these boots to the Foundation for AIDS Research, so you can do a good deed while getting a cool pair of black boots for the late winter weather.

Pretty in Pink

It doesn’t take a whole lot to easily decorate up a room. It’s in the lighting, the throw pillows, the framed photos, the books on the bookshelf.

I’ve done a lot to tidy up and make pretty what small space I have to work with in my Manhattan apartment. I started with the lighting, and moved to the carpeting, the throw pillows, the books on the bookshelves. I did all of that. But I still felt like more could be done.

It wasn’t actually until my sister’s wedding that I found the easiest way to decorate up my area. Just a few clear vases of different sizes, some white candles and some decorate pink rose ice gems to get down into the vase.

Everything just looks better in pink and candlelight.

Natural Dentist Groovy Grape Toothpaste Sparkles


February is Children’s National Dental Health Month.  It’s perfect timing too.  Just think of all the sweet chocolate goodies, lollipops and Conversation Hearts that your child might be gobbling up this month. Makes you want to go out and buy the whole family new toothpaste and toothbrushes doesn’t it?

Have no fear, Natural Dentist is debuting their newest flavored kids toothpaste, Cavity Zapper Groovy
Grape right now.  Sparkling and purple in color Groovy Grape joins Berry Blast in the Natural Dentist kid’s dental health arsenal.  This kid approved brand is safe, effective and the best of science meets nature.  Groovy Grape and Berry Blast taste great and they are sparkly too.  Mica, a naturally forming mineral, gives it that shine while beet and tomato create the fun pink and purple colors.  Even better is that Natural Dentist products do not contain any dyes, alcohol,  harsh chemicals, detergents, or artificial ingredients.  These things can irritate young teeth and gums.

Add Natural Dentist’s Groovy Grape Cavity Zapper toothpaste and its accompanying Cavity Zapper Fluoride rinse to your shopping list today and know that your child’s teeth are protected and safe from this month’s onslaught of candy.

Bring on Spring with a Floral Bib Necklace

Very slowly I’m starting to bring color and brighter looks back into my wardrobe, in anticipation of spring.  I know it’s still a ways off, but it doesn’t hurt to brighten up the grey days with something a little more cheerful and bold.  Since bib necklaces are really a big deal right now, I thought that getting one with a March/April kind of theme might help February to look a little less gloomy.

I never would have thought of Avon as the place to buy jewelry; nevertheless, I was shocked at the range of gorgeous items they have in preparation for the change of seasons.  This desert rose bib necklace features a beautiful floral pattern and warm corals, oranges, and golds – it’s the sort of thing you can wear with a black top for the next couple of months, and then switch to white or a khaki pairing when spring really does arrive.
