dazzle softly.

While I was at a bar with my friends last weekend we were talking fashion [duh, that's just what we do]. You wouldn't think that was the topic considering the hole in the wall type of place we were in, but if you saw our wardrobe compared to anyone else you would understand.

[note: I was in a white, black, and gray leopard cardigan then over the knee gray boots. loves it.]

While talking about clothes one of my friends brought up Shoe Dazzle.

Shoe Dazzle? I had never heard of such a thing.

She continues to tell me it is a website that Kim Kardashian has. SOLD! That's all I needed to hear.

In my loud drunk voice I immediately yelled, "I love the Kardashians. And I love Kim, I mean, look at my hair!"

So while surfing the internet today I remembered our conversation. So I went to the website [shoedazzle.com].



It is a monthly website that charges you $39 a month. The first week of the month they pick out 5 shoes for you from their 'stylists.' You then choose which shoe you want and for free shipping and handling, THEY'RE YOURS!



When you register for the site there are approximately 25 questions. You choose out of models which outfits you like better, then out of brands which you like better, celebrities, shoe styles, shoe colors, etc.

My personal picks were: D&G, LAMB, Smashbox Makeup, Urban Outfitters, Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Aniston, Victoria Beckham, Reese Witherspoon.

Once you have the 5 options you pick the one you want. If you do not want any of the shoes they pick for you you can do two things: 1) you can skip a month and you will not get the $39 charge 2) you can choose a pair from their showroom instead.

If you do not like the shoes you can exchange them for no charge, or return them for a $5.95 restocking fee.

This sounds like a FANTASTIC website! I'm ready to get dazzled. How about you?

new year. new me. [in need of a new body]

Lets face it, most of EVERYONE'S new years resolutions is to lose weight. However, that is not mine. Mine was to keep my room clean and organized. And if anyone out there knows me, then you know what kind of challenge this may be.

However, I will say I wouldn't mind loosing a few pounds, or 30...

I used to be a total work out queen. I would go to the gym twice a day. Then go to work and eat macho nachos. For any Red Robiners out there...you know what I'm talking about. But I would STILL lose weight because of how much I worked out!

For a while I did weight watchers and was actually super successful. I wont lie, we are all friends here...but when I started weight watchers I was 189 lbs. Not my best years. I did weight watchers with a friend for only a few months, but it was great. I lost 26 lbs, dropped 2 pant sizes and felt great. I kept the weight off for about a year then gained about 10 back. I stayed at that size for about another year...and here I am today. In the need of a new body.

Generally when I lose weight it is for a goal of some sort. Not a weight goal, because that would just be too easy. When I was doing WW it was to always beat the girl I would go weigh in with. Before it was to wear a white dress to a specific graduation. And I am that girl that hangs a pair of jeans on her closet door and tries them on every day to see how close we are. Yes, I will admit, I have done that. But only for the great moment when all of a sudden...THEY BUTTON!

So this time around, I need something to keep me going. Now I have a wedding to go to in April...April 30th to be exact. And of course, I already have my dress and shoes. I bought the dress in November. Macy's was having a sale, don't judge. It fit a little snug...but then the holidays happened and I have been frightened to put it on ever since. I do think that will be my end goal.

Now I just need something to kick my ass and keep me in line. I was reading some other blogs and articles and thought, why don't I try quicktrim? I know, I know what you must be thinking...but the Kardashians did it...and with my hair, I'm like an honorary Kardashian [minus the ass of course].

I went online and was looking at the products.
1. They're really expensive
2. They're REALLY confusing

There are A LOT of different products. What do you use first? Which is good? What does Kim use?

Clearly not the cellulite gel that they have because she admitted to not be able to get rid of her cellulite...


Seeeeee look at all of those products! And yes I know, using them wont make me look like Kim, that is NOT my goal...more like Khloe [trannys gotta stick together as my friend John Guzman would say]

The QT products also have very mixed reviews. People either give them one star, or five. Nothing in between.

I'm a little sketch on them and not exactly sure what to do. But I am a hot tranny mess just like Khloe and if I can lose 30 lbs with these magical purple pills, two a day workouts, a gallon of water a day, and no starbucks...then I'm in!



I will keep you all posted as to what I decide!
I know it's expensive $49.99 for 14 days. But if I can't have additional caffeine while on 'the purple pill' it will save me approx $56 from starbucks...so it's almost the same ;)
