♥ Alloy: Broke & Plus-Sized

People, I don't really like discussing certain aspects of my life on blogs or anything internet related but there's something you should know: I'm not thin. I'm not use-a-crane-to-remove-her-from-her-house obese, but I can't fit into 75% the stuff I want. Zara is off-limits; Club Monaco is a joke, Benetton makes me weep. But! The teen brands rarely ever let me down. Alloy, I am talking to you: Low prices, larger sizes and the ability to try stuff on in the refuge of my own home. Is it hit and miss? Sure! Is it worth it? Yes. The new catalog has lots of goodies, whether you're a 6 or a 16. This stuff is not just for teenagers! Shop with me here @ Alloy.com.

Most items are available in sizes XS-XXXL and pant sizes 1-25

♥ a ONE night stand ?!

This weekend as you plan your nightly activities, don't forget to pack the ol' ho bag, just in case you get some action! Now you don't have to make a "ho bag" of your own, you can just pick up the overnighter from Benefit! The geniuses at Benefit put everything together in a handy package so you can expect the unexpected! Your Overnighter comes equipped with a fresh pair of Hanky Panky thongs. The "justine case" beautifier kit has benetint for your cheeks, california kisses to keep your lips kissable and eyecon to moisturize to those undereyes! In my opinion, a real woman should always be prepared with one of these!

Collective Wellbeing Hot Pore Scrub ♥

My current product obsession: Collective Wellbeing's Hot Pore Cleansing Scrub. Relatively affordable, it's a purifying mask and jojoba bead exfoliator in-one—and it warms upon contact! Active charcoal, which is like a sponge, absorbs impurities in the skin, while kaolin clay soaks up excess oil (which I've much appreciated during this sweaty summer). Jojoba wax beads gently exfoliate and calm sebum production thanks to jojoba's similarity to our skin's own oil. Salicylic acid and retinol further assist in removing dead skin cells and smoothing texture. Tea tree extract zaps any acne-causing bacteria that might be having their own summer bash on your skin's surface. Collective Wellbeing uses organic botanicals and no sulfate detergents, parabens, or synthetic fragrance or colors. They're active members of 1% For the Planet and The Chicago Climate Exchange, through which they completely eliminate their carbon footprint!
