Can You Hear Me Now?

Music is such a vital aspect to every party and event. However, especially at a house party it is hard to strike a balance between the volume being loud enough for everyone to hear and blowing people out of the room. One of the best ways to solve this it with Satellite Speakers. You can find great affordable indoor/outdoor options at places like Target and Best Buy. The speakers above are designed to give you top notch sound while withstanding the elements outdoors, and at only $32.98 they are a great deal. Place a couple in every area of the party and no one will feel left out of the vibe!

Get Down With OPI

Since I am on a roll with things I love today, (and I just painted my nails) I thought I would share my favorite shade with you guys. OPI makes about 900,000 shades I love but the one I always seem to go back to is "Brand New Skates". Gray with a little bit of shimmer, you can rock it with everything at every occasion. It's my weekend shade, what are you guys wearing? Leave it in the comments!

OPI

Living bi-costally often takes its toll on my body, especially in the winter. I am going back and forth between the two very different climates of LA and NYC. For the most part this rocks because I get to experience the best of both worlds, but usually my skin does not agree. With the combo of plane flights, NYC snow, and Cali winter wind my skin gets more than distressed! One of the best things I have ever found to combat this are the ExfoliKate products from Kate Somerville. Obviously my first choice would be to get a fabulous facial from Kate's staff everyday but her products are definitely the next best thing. The regular ExfoliKate is even small enough to be safe in my carry on, Perfect!
