    Pamper Those Poor Feet! Our Favorite Foot Care Superstars..

    I spent last weekend having fun with my girlfriends in Las Vegas, and while the trip was a huge success, my feet are another story. In fact, the only adjective that comes to mind when I think of the current state of my feet is "mangled." Two very long nights of 5+ inch BCBGirls platform t-straps (so worth the pain!) will do that to you. But limping around in my ballet flats is getting old fast, and now I'm in the market for some serious feet fixer-uppers. Luckily it appears that there is an impressive number of stiletto-lovers in the Hive, because I've been able to find a ton of creams, buffers, wraps, and scrubs all made with the tortured foot in mind. Like this adorable Burt's Bees Pedicure Kit which looks tiny, but is actually packed with pedicure necessities like a pumice stone, coconut foot creme, and an adorable pair of socks to keep your toes cozy and soft. For a thick and creamy foot treatment, look no further than this handcrafted Eucalyptus Oil Shea Butter Foot Cream. It's blended with organic unrefined shea butter and is infused with anti-fungal tee tree oil to make sure feet stay fresh. Your feet deserve a treat! Search the Hive for more foot care superstars, and be sure to check out my SLIDESHOW to see my favorite items!

    The impending holiday season brings about cheerful emotions, but also a lot of stress from planning your Thanksgiving feast to what to buy for the in-laws. Add traveling to the mix and things could get even more stressful! With the strict TSA rules for carry-on liquids, you may think you'll have to go without your favorite toiletries. Not to worry! Many companies make travel sized versions of their products so you can travel happy. Buying travel sized items is also a great way to try new products without the long term commitment or full sized prices! Take your favorite scent with you without spilling all over your clothes with this Marc Jacobs Daisy solid perfume, or save much needed space with this travel shower kit from Burt's Bees. When traveling by plane, just remember 3-1-1-- that means 3 ounce bottles or less in 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic zip-top bag, and 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin! Take a look at my SLIDESHOW for more TSA-compliant items that will have you breezing through the security check points!

    Entertaining 101: 10 Luxe Items for a Perfect Guest Room

    Whether your guest room is an actual room with four walls or just a pull-out couch in a nook next to your kitchen, there's no reason you can't pamper guests with luxe items that will keep them thinking fondly of their stay at your elegant little abode. Heck, even an air mattress takes on a sheen of bling when outfitted in crisp, high thread-count linens (think Frette), but not all of the things that can turn your walk-up studio into a spa resort for a night or two require a serious cash spill. Fresh flowers in a sparkling glass vase do wonders for a small space, and a sweet little $13 kit of Burt's Bees bath and body products will make guests feel deliciously spoiled. Muji cardboard iPod speakers and a tote filled with current magazines--include a local magazine with reviews of new restaurants and shows-- will keep guests entertained when you're not around.
