Gwen is one rocking Lady...








I love Gwen Stefani's style. I genuinely appreciate a pop stars that like to look pretty. Try as I might, this whole GaGa thing completely eludes me.
It most be exhausting to live your life in costume.
I thought this dress looked absolutely stunning on Gwen, so I created this Polyvore set and completed her ensemble.
I hope you like it.

Review: Brazilian Blowout Instant Body Boost Powder
![]() |
| Gwen Stefani loves lift |
I was born in the wrong era. If it were feasible, I would have a "bump-it" permanently stitched to the crown of my head, (it's the only possible way to get it to stay, 3 steps out of my bathroom).
Who doesn't look better with a little lift at the root??? My obsession started the first time I saw the film Bonnie and Clyde. I wanted Faye Dunaway's bob. The fact that my hair is neither blond or straight was of little concern. Get me a rat tail teasing comb stat...

Today, I love Gwen, because she has figured out how to add fullness to the crown, without looking like Snooki. Adele's do gives me heart palpitations too. My favorite Carrie Bradshaw look evah, was when she got to be a "MODEL". Orlando Pita did her hair and Kevyn Aucoin did her makeup. Both were OTT and SJP never looked better.
When I had the opportunity to try Brazilian Blowout's Instant Body Boost Powder from their new Volume Collection of course I said yes!

This is an interesting product, and I just happened to LOVE it. It requires very, very little to get maximum effect, and nicely, they forewarn you of this. (I tend to be a more is better kind of Girl and can easily overdose on product.)
Simply rub Instant Volume Body Boost Powder in completely to any area you want to add some instant volume and lift to. The unique powder formula also will give you a pass, on needing to wash your hair for a day or two.
It gives you Va-Va in about 5 seconds. I can tell you unequivocally, Brazilian Blowout's Instant Volume Body Boost Powder is a new Holy Grail product for me and I will never be without it.
Here's a link so you can order it
Now if I could just find that rat tail comb...
Oh. And you're welcome.

Meow!!!





This Polyvore was inspired by Gwen Stefani, who recently wore this Blumarine ensemble and as only she could, rocked it.
It is also dedicated to my friend Jackie Silver noted writer, radio personality and author of Aging Backwards. She is a kitty lover extraordinaire and is the only person delighted to receive a picture of my "son" Scoots, at any hour of the day or night.
Meowf to Jackie and all my kitty loving readers.

L.A.M.B.Spring 2012
Just after leaving the L.A.M.B. presentation at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center, I spotted Alex McCord of Real Housewives of Brooklyn New York fame dashing in...Naturally, Hub Simon Van Kempen was within eyeshot. I asked to take her picture and she sweetly obliged.
I could see why Alex would want to see the L.A.M.B. Collection by Gwen Stefani...she is never afraid to take risks and she enjoys color. Gwen definitely is her own best muse, and I could picture her in every look, as well as Blake Lively, Leighton Meister, Sarah Jessica Parker and Chloe Sevigny, a leggy bunch, with plenty of confidence to match...
