These Gap ads are everywhere, you know the commercial where they are singing and dancing around and everyone looks all festive yet still casual? Then there's the magazine ad where I think the models are positioned in the shape of a snowflake or something?
Sigh. This ruffle plaid shirt.
Sigh. The marketing apparently works because I really really want one.

Would you join a shoe society? One where Kim Kardashian is your personal shoe stylist (along with other celebrity stylists)?
I'm intrigued. I love shoes.
At ShoeDazzle, for just $39.95 a month, each month you get a new pair of shoes.
Here are the details...

Me with shorter semi side swept bangs.
I've had short bangs that went straight across and I've also had really long side-swept bangs -- can you tell I'm a huge fan of bangs for myself?
The side swept bangs look better on me and that makes sense now that I've got these tips from stylist Antonio Prieto.
Bangs, or fringe as he calls them, can look great if you first identify your shape of face, then get the right fringe cut.

Since I can't bring the spa to you, I wanted to bring some elements of being pampered to one lucky CafeMom.
The Organic Pharmacy has such incredible products -- they are one of London's best makers of organic and homeopathic beauty and health products.
Cleopatra's Milk Bath and Scrub Spa Gift Set is infused with rose petals, and the essential oils of rose, jasmine, and yling ylang, buffing your skin and making it silky smooth. Sounds fantastic, right?
Ooh I would like a bath right now!
Want to win this Spa Gift Set? To enter, tell me...

My grandma and aunt used to have the cutest change purses. I think it's because they played BINGO...and my aunt would do her laundry down the street so the change was needed.
I think it was my grandma that had a little beaded one with a sun on it and the word Florida -- she probably bought it as a souvenir from a trip down there with my papa. I inherited it and wish I still had it.
Anthropologie has some of the most adorable, vintage looking change purses.

You know how when you go to the salon and they blow dry your hair, it almost always looks fabulous? But then when you try to do it yourself, at home, it just never looks as smooth or as good?
I'm an embrace the waves in my hair kind of girl -- in fact, I wish I had more curl. But my sister loves her hair straight. And no matter how you wear your hair, some of us (ahem, me) can often spend lots of money at the salon.
Now I'm not saying to ditch the salon -- I love being pampered -- but wouldn't it be great to get a look as good as they can give you?
The makers at Parlay Brush say they can.

I know there are a lot of really creative and artistic CafeMoms -- and don't we all LOVE shoes?! So I had to tell you about this really neat contest from Zappos and Steve Madden.
You design a shoe. Enter it into the contest. Three are selected for a trip to Las Vegas and NYC to present their design and one will win -- having her her shoe made and sold on Zappos!

Although there are some things I do like about myself...even without makeup.
