    KTG Vintage Shirts Would Make Betsey Ross Jealous!

    With less than a week left to shop, many are scrambling to find the perfect Fourth of July outfit. The fourth of July is almost like Halloween; you want to find a look that everyone will love (and compliment), but you don't want to spend a million bucks on something you will probably wear once. After careful researching, we may have the answer to a cheap-but-chic Independence Day outfit with Kiss the Girl. Kiss the Girl, aka KTG, has been selling vintage-style tees since 2006. The idea came after the founders noticed how many California girls live in their worn-out, well-fitted, and, most important, one-of-a-kind tees. Instantly, KTG set out on a mission to satisfy the demand. The result? Unique pieces made out of quality materials that get better and softer with every wash. All their pieces are embroidered with some sort of design ranging from big peace signs to smaller images of anchors and swallows. They are so confident in their pieces they event stated this: "Kiss the Girl's unique patchwork designs [on our tees] would make the great Betsy Ross jealous." Plus in addition to their already reasonable prices, KTG is offering 20% off of your entire order-- just enter this promo code when you make your purchase on their website - SUMMER09.

    One Man's Recyclables Are Another Man's... Furniture?

    How is it that a living space can get so cluttered? Some people are lucky and are born with the "organized and tidy" gene. I got the "cluttered pack-rat" gene instead. With every new beginning, I promise myself that I will only keep what is absolutely necessary and all that is not under that category will be swiftly thrown, recycled or donated. Instead, there are piles of fashion and gossip magazines dotting my floor, suitcases holding clothes because my closet and dressers are full and shelves of random knick-knacks, accessories and souvenirs that I swear are sentimental, but probably wouldn't notice if they were gone. Some fellow pack-rats have found a creative and environmental way to rid our already small living spaces of junk and clutter and produce objects that are beautiful, funky and totally useful! From trash-cans and large vases made from old magazines (i could make a patio set) to bright, extravagant chandeliers made from "stuff" and a place to rest your feet made up of shoes that used to be on them, innovative designers are helping lighten the land-fill load and make our homes more fun and functional! Because the items are made of recyclables, subtle details will be different, ensuring that you truly have a one-of-a-kind piece. Sounds like something you've been looking for to help set the theme of a new house, or to spruce up a room? Check out the slideshow to see some favorite recycled furniture ideas and find one for your space!

Her Rock Candy Crystal necklaces are easy to wear, totally eye-catching and guilt-free!

Adorn your tried and true LBD to add some color and spark to an evening look! However you choose to wear it, it'll make people want to eat you up! Just don't break a tooth!

    Summer Scents You Can Spritz On The Go!

    Ida Hsiang on Jun 30, 2009 10:18 AM PDT
    Summer can be the busiest time of year for many of us. Three months of vacation, travel, weekend excursions, surprise visits and spontaneous road trips! All those days at the beach, evening concerts and other balmy night activities sure are fun, but keep us busy and running all around! What is the best way to stay looking and smelling so fresh and so clean (clean) if there's no time to stop by the house in between things? There's travel size cosmetics, blotting papers, compact mirrors, mini hair brushes and even dry shampoo! But what about perfume? The last thing you want to do is stuff your already bulging tote with the Nordstrom's fragrance department! Some mini perfume solids and oils have become my favorites, but at times, I just want to smell like my favorite perfume... the one that only comes in a spray-on version. The latest trend in perfumes and scents is the travel size tube! These are glass vials that hold about 0.3 oz of your favorite scent, so you can grab a familiar favorite and slip it easily into a purse or pocket and smell like your freshest you anytime and anywhere. More and more stores are providing this simple and sweet solution in scents so check out your favorite beauty store! Still not sure if you'll be able to find your specific favorite? Check out the slideshow for some classic favorites.
