Snarkstress, I Accept Your Challenge

The other day, my daughter, Bailey, made the comment that she wished I would buy myself some new clothes after Christmas.  I was surprised because usually when she thinks of new clothes, it’s something that she wants.  Then, I realized that she was gently saying, “Mom, it’s time to freshen up your wardrobe.”  I work part-time at an elementary school and the rest of the time in my home office – I get lazy sometimes. 

I’m Mom, sure, but I’d also like to be a confident,  attractive, (sexy) woman, as well.

Then, I read about Julie, The Snarkstress’s Challenge, clicked through a few of her posts, found this photo of Jennie Garth, and that’s when I got downright enthusiastic about the whole thing.  

I felt that this top was most like Jennie’s ………

Janelle Silky Tunic, in Hunter Green

I decided that I need more than one top if I’m truly going to be updating, so just for the heck of it, I’m going to get this one, too…………..

Retro Floral Tunic

And just because I’m feeling like treating myself extra special, I’m going to get some of this………..

KenzoAmour Shower Honey

The ingredients include……………

Gentle Rice

A major food staple for much of the world’s population, rice is the second most consumed cereal grain. Rice has many health benefits; it is an antioxidant, helps to lower cholesterol and assists in balancing blood sugar levels

Musk

Musk has been an essential ingredient in perfumery since ancient times. Its capability to enhance a fragrance comes from its ability to adopt the fixative qualities of a natural scent. Musk is a linear, powdery note

Frangipani Blossom

Also known as Plumeria, Frangipani Blossom has become common in all tropical areas of the world. ‘Frangipani’ comes from the name of an Italian noble family that created a perfume from the flower. In many Pacific islands, frangipani blossoms are used to make leis. In modern Polynesian culture, the way you wear a frangipani blossom indicates your relationship status

I tried the KenzoAmour as part of a fragrance review awhile ago and I’m hooked on it now. It’s a spicy, woody, scent. Very sexy.  If you are looking to update your fragrance collection, I suggest you pick some up, or better yet, it’s the holiday season – put it on your wish list.
