So - the Oscars. The show was a bit of a yawn (just my opinion) but the dresses were absolutely DIVINE! It was nice to see so much red. And I was nice to see a return to a more classic Hollywood glamour - dresses that looked like dresses, not costumes.
It’s AMAZING how quickly the best of the red carpet translates into the real world of ready to wear. Some designers boast that they can take a couture gown worn by an A-list celeb at the Oscars, reinterpret it and get it into the stores in a matter of days after the big event. And when it comes to those red carpet dress styles - eDressMe - dresses for all occasions is a best bet. They were just featured tonight on EXTRA - did you see it? Anyway - they’ve got the hottest styles, direct from the red carpet to your closet. For far less than you’ll pay anywhere else.
One of the things that drives me crazy is having to pay for shipping when I’m sending a very small gift. I’m not talking about something small in size - I’m talking about something inexpensive. Particularly something inexpensive, rather bulky and perishable. It’s not that I’m cheap (I’m just savvy) - it’s more about the absurdity of spending $12 on shipping to send someone a $25 box of chocolates as a small thank you or birthday gift. It’s just irritating. And I know I’m not alone in this. It’s very irritating.
Problem solved. Fannie May is now offering Free Shipping when you spend $20 per address with code 10107 thru 6.28.08. Like I said. Problem solved.
PS There’s no rule that the chocolates MUST be a gift. You might just want to treat yourself!
It’s almost too beautiful to use.

Even though it’s colder than cold outside, it is late February and spring is just around the corner. And with spring comes the inevitable spring cleaning. And the best way to get a jump start on that spring cleaning? With a bit of de-cluttering. Start small, one closet, or one area or room at a time. Toss things that need to go. If you’ve got anything of value that you don’t want anymore you can give it to a friend or family member or donate it to charity.
Once you’ve gotten what you don’t want out of a space, start cleaning and organizing what’s left. Work slowly, area by area. That way, you are less likely to feel overwhelmed and quit before you’ve finished. I also like the ‘geographical’ approach to cleaning and organizing because it’s easy to see the fruits of all that hard labor as you progress.
As you work through your home, make note of all those little things that need attention and repair. Cracked outlet plates. Hardware, handles and hinges that need replacement. Indicator bulbs. Doors that don’t quite close properly. You get the idea.
But first things first. Start with a little bit of de-cluttering. And take the rest one small step at a time.

I’ll admit it. I have a thing for mirrors. It’s not that my house looks like a disco ball or anything. And I don’t have any of those bad 70’s mirror tiles on the wall. I just really like the look of wall mirrors in just about any (or every) room. I actually have one wall in my house that showcases a pretty large ‘collection’ of mirrors.
I was shopping at CharlesKeath today and was completely blown away by their selection of mirrors.
From the traditional to ultra modern, tiny to totally humongous. Wall mirrors. Floor mirrors.
Reproduction Window Mirrors, pr.
Looks like my collection will soon be growing!

Art glass lovers, take note. There is a HUGE selection of beautiful Murano glass and art glass at Novica.com . Explore the work of dozens of artisans and craftspeople from all over the world. You’ll find wonderful glass for gifting. And for keeping, too. At prices starting well below $50 up to several hundred dollars for all but the most expensive pieces.
I love the look of this small Murano vase and at $47.95, it’s quite a good buy.
Murano handblown vase, ‘Ember’
The fiery red glow of this vase is fascinating. It is intense and passionate, and contrasts elegantly with its crystalline finish. The Seguso Family mastermind the illusion as they craft the vase by hand with traditional blown glass techniques inherited from Murano, Italy. The presence of air bubbles accentuates the nature of the traditional hand blown crafting process, making each piece unique. Other designs, sizes and colors are available from the same artists.
I also like the glass star mobile - what a wonderful gift for a baby shower! Also under $50.
