As a kid, Halloween was always very exciting until about two seconds before it was time to go out trick or treating. This was because my mom would guard the door with our winter coats in hand. “You don’t leave until you put this on.” It’s a memory shared by every child who did not...

Designer Invites for Beer Budget Brides
This just in…I’m not sure if you’ve all heard, but apparently the economy is in tough shape right now? Weird.

Hitchcock for Halloween
If you’re throwing a Halloween party and want to forgo the kitschy pumpkins and cats, consider decorating with vintage Hitchcock posters. All can be found here for about $15.00. Have your guests dress up to go along with the theme. Not too many ladies will think twice about dressing up like Grace Kelly or Kim...

Pumpkin rage and pretty lamps
I’ve started counting my calories again. In these tough economic times, it’s cheaper to lose weight than replace all of the tight jeans I suddenly find in my closet.
And of course it couldn’t come at a more ridiculous time — Halloween candy is everywhere, and all I want is a giant piece of pumpkin loaf...
