latisse- 50% off with a groupon


Latisse is a prescription (Rx grade) medication that has clinically been proven to lengthen and thicken lashes over time. After 16 weeks of consistent application, users have reported up to a 25% increase in lash length. 
I'm going to try this product out tonight and report what happens after 16 weeks. I can't wait to share my results with you guys.

virgin drink of choice- zero calorie aloe vera juice



You can maximize the benefits that you receive from aloe vera by taking it in an ingestible form. It helps detoxify the body, cleanse the colon, and improves immunity by acting as an antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal agent. It also acts as mild pain reliever and reduces inflammation.

An ice cold glass of this juice is amazing right after some hot yoga.

spring pastels

I took some pictures outside as the weather has been getting surprisingly nice. 30 something degrees is crazy warm for February in Chicago. This fast-forwarding through winter is kind of scaring me...Global-warming in full-effect?

 I've never tried anything like this before. The oysters and caviar were surprisingly sweet and paired very well with the plum wine.

Seth Porges, senior editor of MAXIM and cloth

On my way back to Chicago, my flight got delayed for 4 hours. I ended up getting back home at around 4 AM, but after all of these exciting NYC events, even that couldn't put me in a bad mood. As I waited at the gate, I sat next to this guy and his girlfriend. They kindly shared a box of delicious chocolate almonds with me. Later on, I found out that this guy was actually Seth Porges, senior editor of MAXIM magazine. woah! :) 

He gave me a free copy of March's issue of MAXIM.
In semi-related news, 
Remember the movie Clueless? ever dreamed of owning Cher's closet? well get ready to live the dream! A very similar program is not available on your iphone thanks to Seth.  

Cloth is an app where you can take pictures of your favorite outfits, organize them, and share them with friends. Go check it out. It's pretty awesome:
