I'm not a sneaker wearer, but that doesn't mean a pair of kicks can't make me smile. Just look at these Watermelon Vans! When so many people are digging out of snow and bundled up in scarves and mittens, Vans gives us a peek from their Spring line! I can almost feel the sun from looking at them....

In case you missed it, one of our very own CafeMoms was featured on The Tyra Banks Show!
mommytoseven thought she was going on the program to talk about for her child advocacy work, but she got a big surprise when they told her she was going to get a fantasy makeover!
To the right is mommytoseven before the makeover...

Man. Meat. Two things that often go together, but as a fragrance? Yep...Burger King has introduced a scent for men called Flame -- now your man can smell like a Whopper.

Photo from Target
Target's GO International line is set to debut Thakoon Panichgul's collection on December 28th. I'm super excited! Thakoon makes feminine yet sporty looks and Demi Moore and Sarah Jessica Parker are big fans.
I'm so happy he decided to design a line that's affordable at Target! The prints are fun, but not too bold. There are dresses, tops, shorts, and funky coats.
My only complaint is that I wish it was available now so I can shop the line for the holidays! I really love the colors of the dress seen here.
Are you excited about Thakoon for Target?
Click through for some more photos from the line!

Starting in January, Ellen DeGeneres' ads for CoverGirl's Simply Ageless Foundation will be in magazines and online everywhere. The campaign's slogan is "witty, wise, strong, and simply age-defying." Ellen will be 51 on January 25th -- I think the slogan fits her perfectly.
What do you think of Ellen being the next CoverGirl?
Who would you love to see as the next CoverGirl?

Lots of us are thinking of creative ways to make money. I have taken my gently worn clothes and sold them to a second-hand store. But did you know you can sell your hair for cash, too?

We've talked about our hair down there, but what about his? Manscaping, when men trim, shave, or wax their body hair, has become a way of life for metrosexuals, but sometimes even the rough and tumble types like to trim their own bushes.
Pete Wentz is a manscaper. Oh yes, this Fall Out Boy, soon-to-be first-time dad, and husband of Ashlee Simpson has talked to Elle magazine about how he maintains his hair down below.

From Target
I'm really sad Isaac Mizrahi is moving on from Target, but he's making room for Alexander McQueen! I have fantasized about owning a McQueen piece for a long time (apparently so has Kenley from Project Runway). But I've never been able to splurge on the price tag.
We have to sit tight, fashionistas, the line isn't set to be in stores until March. But that doesn't mean you can't shop designers for less right now....
