My FAVORITE sunscreen ever! I seriously don't leave home without it.
One of the benefits of having a blog is that you can write just about anything you want and today I'd like to use some of that freedom to say thank you to all of the amazing people who are my fans and readers. I appreciate your insight, humor and support more than I can say and absolutely wouldn't be where I am without you.
You truly are the best fans a girl could ask for!

Amazon - What's better than being able to shop with the click of the button and nearly free two day shipping especially as the holiday season approaches? Nothing. Some people argue you can save bundles by shopping around but to me time is money so I shop on the internet's #1 retailer often.
American Apparel - If there is a staple in my closet it's the American Apparel T-shirt in its many variations. They're beyond comfortable, the blended versions last forever and just when you think you have all you need they come out with a new color or favorably tweak an already existing style. A caviat: some of the photos on the American Apparel website can be a bit risqué so if you find that kind of material bothersome have a friend order for you and I'd definitely not browse with the kids around.
Cafe Mom - A wonderful resource for the internet savvy mom and great place to just plain hang out. This is the kind of site you can leave open on your desktop and check in on as you pass by to change a dirty diaper. There is a ridiculous amount of information coming through Cafe Mom so if you're looking for something specific you might have to pull out your magnifying glass and do some searching but the effort's worth it.
ESPN - Arguably the best sports news and The Body Issue. I LOVE the body issue!
Forever 21 - I can't count how often I've had to order something for a red carpet event because I didn't have time to go through the boutique shopping experience. Forever 21 makes it so easy to buy a bunch of options at a next to nothing price that I leave my computer feeling guilty like I just stole something. It's not clothing you'll keep for your children but it serves its purpose well.
Sephora - A girl's best friend for obvious reasons.
Sports Illustrated - Arguably the best sports news and The Swimsuit Issue. My husband would argue it's The Swimsuit Issue then sports news and is hacking my blog right now to redirect the link accordingly.
Trip Advisor - As much as Sacha, Blaise and I travel, Trip Advisor really has been a great tool for us. Perhaps even better than the reviews are the reviewer's photos. Visitors to the site are able to get a better picture of what the hotel/resort they are considering actually looks like. This has saved us on many occasion from making poor choices.
Victoria's Secret - Do I really need to say more?
Women's Health - True, it's a magazine that can be found at your local newstand but I find their website is just as good if not better for finding great fitness tips, healthy recipes and when I need it even advice on love.
Blend
-12 oz. açaí juice*
-1 cup sliced strawberries
-1 cup plain yogurt (agave nectar optional)
Top With
-1/2 cup of your favorite granola (or 1/4 cup ground flax seed)
-1 sliced banana
*açaí berries begin decomposing rapidly after being harvested so it's most likely that you will find them at your local market in the form of powder, pulp or juice.
