I have a lot of quirks, and I had to narrow them down. So, here are the rules: 1. Link the person who tagged you. 2. Mention the rules in your blog. 3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours. 4.

What a lovely Mother’s Day gift! A phrase from Puccini’s romantic opera, “Ti amo, sei mia”“I love you,- you’re mine now.” A most romantic gift for that special woman in your life who also happens to be a mom. This pendant is unobtrusive, contemporary, and something that she will treasure for years to come. (via bella8)

I hope everyone enjoyed our “green” week! It was a great way to learn about some new companies who are committed to a eco-fabulous philosophy. Remember, it’s not just about Earth Day, but about being green all year long! On a seperate and unrelated note, I hope you like the design! I promise to stop messing with it, so perhaps you’ll see a more consistent look around here. Look for some great Mother’s Day gift ideas coming up soon, plus some reviews and other fun stuff!

Gorgeous wrap sweater made from bamboo and organic cotton. A perfect spring addition to your wardrobe.
Stella McCartney developed this skincare line after realizing that there weren’t many truly green or organic skin care lines out there. She feels that you shouldn’t have to sacrifice luxury to be green. 100% organic active ingredients, which means that it has everything your skin needs, nothing it doesn’t. 100% certified as organic and ecological, these products don’t contain and petroleum derivatives or silicones. Even the fragrance is made from 100% essential oils. This line is simple, easy to use, and very uncomplicated. Browse the line at Sephora or Nordstrom. (via deydolma)
Makeup artist Carmindy has partnered with Sally Hansen to bring us a natural makeup line that is affordable and created with natural ingredients and antioxidants. All the products are completely paraben-free. So far, they don’t seem easy to find. If you don’t have a CVS pharmacy near you (we don’t have them here, either), you might be out of luck. You can always order online, though, although I would never recommend trying out a new line without actually seeing it first.Ulta has them online, but reports seem to be mixed about finding the line in stores. However, if you’re interested, [...]
