Scandal @ Saks

I’ve been so busy lately-focusing on 54 Couture, I have not been nosing around the web, but here are a few tidbits I discovered. As you may or may not know I am a Scandal fan, and I cannot wait to watch the new one tonight. Well I guess Saks Fifth Avenue is a fan as well, the windows are filled with mannequins of the Scandal crew decked out is fashions that of course can be purchased.

Yesterday I was in the city (LA) yes I live in the burbs and I make it my business to go into LA a couple of times a week, usually with my eyes open, observing the world around me…so I enter this boutique and I am greeted with this sign that is so apropos.

I think everybody knows I’m a “kitty” person, but after watching this video, maybe just maybe I could have a change of heart. Fall in love with these Corgi pups.

Interesting study about when women feel most unattractive, so that companies could tap into the “feeling ugly” market. Monday is the day women feel most unattractive according to the study, I thought about this–my “ugly” usually is Thursday, day before I usually do my hair, especially if I have been working out hard all week my hair is jacked by then. Read it here.

More than half the women in this country are a size 14 and above, there is a contest for companies to compete for a chance to have their business compete to have a commercial during Super Bowl. Curvy Girl Lingerie is in the running, read about it here and vote.

I found this piece interesting and insightful “15 things every woman over 50 should Own” I especially like the one about having a professional portrait…

And finally I am going to end with my Facebook post from yesterday:

Grab a Big piece of Life today…and Hold on to it like theres no Tomorrow…

XOXO,

Kerry on Elle Magazine

My girl crush…Kerry Washington. Yes! I love Scandal. I love seeing an African-American woman in a leading role on prime time, I can’t remember the last time. Now that the finale has aired I thought I’d take a moment to meander through Kerry’s fabulous fashion moments. Although her style is different from mine, I love and appreciate her muted “Olivia Pope” look and her personal style. She is one tight 36 year-old, 5’4″ bundle of sass and she is always on point. Every pic of her is fabulous, I can’t find one bad one. I love her hair, especially in the retro shoot she did. I don’t know how I am going to make it through the summer…I guess I can buy the season and watch it again.

A few years back I sent Reggie to my favorite detox spa We Care out in Palm desert for a weekend. I know we normally are always together, but We Care is an experience best had alone, as I said it is a “detox” spa and you will spend a lot of time in the bathroom…but any way getting back to the story as luck would have it Kerry Washington and her boyfriend at the time were there as well. We Care is an intimate spa with only a few guests each weekend, there is a common area where everyone gathers to get water, juice and soup, there is no restaurant, you are on a supervised fast. So Reggie being Reggie says to Kerry “Do I know you?”and of course she says “NO”, but by the end of the weekend she told him she was an actor, of course this was pre-Scandal. He said she was very personable and he was so flattered when he told her how old he was and she told him “Black don’t Crack”.
