I love reading – news, magazines, books – it doesn’t matter. So when my co-workers were talking about starting a book club last winter, I was all in. I had never been involved in one before and it sounded like a lot of fun! So far we’ve read our way through some diverse books, with meetings focused around food and fun. We’ve taken a more laidback approach this summer, choosing book/movie combos and holding our meetings at the local movie theater. Yesterday was our August get-together. After dinner at Olive Garden we headed over to watch [ . . . ]

If you wait with bated breath for Glamour UK to let us know who the hottest men in the world are each year, you can relax – the list is out! In a strange twist that’s very telling of our current pop culture, every single man in the top 5 is either a vampire or a [ . . . ]

I finally got to see The Twilight Saga: Eclipse over the Fourth of July weekend. I have to say, I was a little disappointed by the movie. Once I finally agreed to start reading the Twilight books, I was hooked. I definitely love the characters and the stories, but they don’t seem to translate well to the big screen. In fact, the only movie I’ve really liked so far has been New Moon. After watching it this past fall, I assumed that the movies would only get better – most likely because the studio would have reason to [ . . . ]

I don’t know why, but I was surprised to hear that Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green had gotten married a couple of weeks ago. It had just become public knowledge that she had received (and promptly lost) another engagement ring from Brian. I figured there would be the obligatory year long planning period before the wedding. Silly me – since when has Megan Fox been known as traditional?

That’s one of the things that most impresses me about her. She may be famous, but [. . . ]

Wedding season has just gotten underway, but our wedding shoe series is drawing to a close. Our final model is another ShoeMall employee – Rachel K. Her dress is a great example of a timelessly elegant wedding dress. The cut, style and simple embellishments make this a dress that has the potential to be fashionable many years into the future. Who knows, if she has a daughter someday it may even become a family heirloom!

When pairing shoes and accessories with an elegant dress, you have a couple of options. You can [ . . . ]

Many of us know all too well that “little black dress” hanging up in our closets that we resort to oh so many times for weddings, parties, girls night out, or any other event you want to be looking your best! This post we are going to discuss the latest trends and what shoes to wear with that dress this season[ . . . ]

For many brides, picking out your wedding shoes is a pretty big deal, and we all know there are several options out there. Finding the perfect pair doesn’t have to be stressful. Here are some keys points to keep in mind while trying to complete your look for your special day.

1) Comfy is key. Sure those 4-inch blue Manolo Blahnik’s are sexy, but [ . . . ]

Sandra Bullock has had a tough time of late. I’m sure most people are aware of the issues she has been having in her marriage to Jesse James. I’ve spent the last couple of months hoping that some good news would be coming her way, while the whole time she has been keeping a joyful secret – make that a bundle of joy secret!

According to People.com, Sandra and Jesse were in the process of adopting a newborn son named [ . . . ]

It was a bittersweet evening at my house on Wednesday. Although I did get to enjoy new episodes of The Middle, CougarTown and Modern Family, I also watched the very last episode of Ugly Betty. As you probably already know, I’m going to miss it! (FYI – if you haven’t watched the finale yet and don’t want to know how it ends, you may want to skip this post. There will be spoilers!) [ . . . ]

I was surprised how much the trailer to The Last Song caught my attention. I’ve seen Hannah Montana – I know Miley Cyrus is a decent Disney channel style actress. I just wasn’t expecting her to be very enticing in a more serious role. I may have been wrong – the movie actually looks really good!

Not only is Miley looking to get into the movie business, but it sounds like she may be doing so at the expense of her current career. It’s no surprise that Hannah Montana is ending. [ . . . ]
