I ♥ Ronson


Seems one of the biggest trends this coming season will be rompers. I vowed I wouldn't caught dead in one, so I'm hoping lightning doesn't strike me.

JC Penney is carrying the adorable and affordable line from Charlotte Ronson named I ♥ Ronson (Way Cute).

Being a curvy Latina I figured no way I can pull it off. Well I did and I will! The romper looks ultra chic on me, I'm pairing it with some gorge sandals and I'm off...just got to find somewhere to go now...

Anyhow at $20 a pop(it was on sale 30% off), this is sure to put me in the running for the Chicest Recessionista!

Always looking for a good deal while maintaining my Chic!

Shutterfly iPhone App


For years Shutterfly has been my choice for storing online pictures. I love their innovative designs and how easy and user friendly thier site is. Just downloaded the application for Shutterfly, and couldnt be happier. Now I can happily upload, view and share on the go.

Pictures taken on the iPhone can be uploaded to your account and stored for free, at full resolution.

As with all accounts, Shutterfly offers free, unlimited storage, stores images at full resolution and does not delete images.

And of course the kicker is that its FREE!

I heart Shutterfly!

Sweet!

Is Balance the Key to Happiness

Lately I feel like I'm drowning.

People often strive for success and money. I strive for balance. As a mom of three this is getting increasingly harder. Days come and go and "I" get lost in the mix. I was brought up on the theory that your children and husband are first. My mother spent her entire life making sure we were taken care of, while her life passed right before her eyes. Now she suffers from Alzhiemers,and I have regrets for Mom. Regrets that my mom never found that balance.

I love my mom and I've learned from her.

My mission is to take control again and restore my balance in my quest for happiness.

#FollowFriday..what an interesting phenomenon


It happens every Friday, the hashtag before the Follow Friday. It took my awhile to understand how this works but now I know how amazing it is. This morning woke up not really feeling as perky as usual. Must tell you Twitter and my Tweeple always manage to put a smile on my face. I am inspired by so many people, that 140 characters are just not enough. Like many I don't follow a certain industry, or like. I follow anyone who is interesting; and anyone one who stimulates my mind and heart. I am guilty of following some of my favorite celebrities but I must admit they aren't as interesting as the real people on Twitter.

It is was upto me, my status would read #followfriday: EVERYONE!!!

Thanks Twitterworld, I think you are spectacular!!
