Birchbox

I confess that I get a little overwhelmed with all the beauty products out there, and I become a bit skeptical as to whether or not certain products work enough to put so much money into them.  Now, I can pay a little and try out a whole lot!  There is a site called Birchbox which has set it up so that you can pay 10 dollars a month and receive this cute little box with different samples.  It is like a little gift to yourself each month and you can try out all kinds of different beauty products!  I love it!

Wallpaper I Want...Badly

I was reading the post about bookshelf wallpaper in House Beautiful the other day and I was a bit disappointed in their selections...

But then we had this lovely engagement party for my friends and we had a progressive dinner which involved us riding our bikes from house to house.  All of my friends have gorgeous homes, but I was blown away by one of the hosts' bathroom wallpaper from Anthro .  This is way cooler than all of the others!

Yay for good taste!
