What does your diamond cut say about you? When I went engagement ring shopping, I didn’t know the names of every of diamond cut let alone that the shape can say something about your personality.

Let me know if you find the diamond personalities to be true or if you have other adjectives in mind. The Round: This says you’re traditional and trustworthy with strong values. The Oval: Traditional and dependable yet y... |

I am a shoe addict and so are most of my brides. I haven’t seen a white shoe in years! But, it is all about your personal style. Here is a picture from one of my weddings that denotes the bride’s style. She is a high-ranking officer in the military and wanted to find a camouflage shoe. Of course, these Betsy Johnson shoes fit the bill. She wears a uniform every day and these sassy shoes were a big departure from her everyday attire. She looked stunning!

Help! For those who know me, you know I’m a pretty avid gym go-er. However, I’m in a rut right now. I can’t seem to find the motivation to go! I think part of the issue is that Apricot Dude, who is a teacher, is home for the summer. Usually, I wake up when he does and go to the gym. However, now he sleeps till 9! What I need to be doing!!!! I have heard some people recommend the website sparkpeople.com but I’m not too sure about it. I signed up but already unsubscribed from all the newsletters because they sent me about 92338 a day, well, maybe not that many. Anywho- I’m going to go ... |
