Happy Friday, Guys!
It’s been a little while since I featured some of the hottest hoodies out there, and well, now’s as good a time as any. Check out what I found:

I love the stripes on this El Morro hoodie from Hollister. At $44.50, it’s a little pricey, but just think of all the things you can wear it with.

Love the springy colors and retro look of this Mossimo hoodie from Target. And at under $20, it’s a total steal.

Okay, so this is the non-hooded hoodie. I couldn’t help but include it because it is sooo flippin’ cute. It’s the …read more

Aeropostale’s awesome new program, Teens for Jeans, begins today and runs through February 8. When you donate a gently worn pair of jeans, life will reward you with good karma and Aeropostale will reward you with 20% off a new pair! Pretty good gig, ay?
Your jeans will be passed on to a shelter, where on average, one out of 3 people there will be under 18. So Do Something to help the homeless – and score some new jeans in the process.

As I sit here thinking about how I can fix my hair blondification that went a little wrong, I got to thinking that sometimes change ain’t all it’s cracked up to be. Maybe I should’ve left well enough alone. Maybe I’m just not meant to be as blond as I once was. Maybe I should just quit with this change nonsense and be all boring and predictable.
Nah! What’s the fun in that?
Change is good. Change is exciting. Change …read more

OK, so if you’re like moi, you have magazines stacked in piles taller than you. Yep, with FOURTEEN mag subscriptions, I am in dire need of somewhere to put all of these must-reads. Of course, I rarely dump any, so they keep on stacking up until I get tired of them and send them to the recycling bin. But I know when I do that, I’m throwing away a bunch of stuff I wanted to keep for reference. Not cool.
So I’ve been searching for a mag rack to keep everything organized and under wraps. I’ve found some that were “Meh, …read more

I LOVE reader mail. It makes me totally happy because I love being challenged to help you guys find “the perfect thing”. In this case, over the weekend, I got a note from a reader (Hi, Katie!) about to attend her first winter formal. But her school had some pretty strict guidelines. Check them out:

It must be a dress or nice skirt & shirt (Nobody asked, but my vote is for DRESS!)
The straps must be as wide as 3 fingers (Hmmm! Picky, picky, picky!)
The skirt must be no shorter than 3 inches above the knee (No problemo here!)
