Oh jeez it’s that time of year where you can get pumpkin cream cheese vodka shots and Pinterest is one big carved gourd fest.

Dear Willpower,
Where are you? Have you moved? You never called me back and I’m starting to get worried that I’ll never see you again! I mean, I’ve been doing the Whole Life Challenge for a few weeks now, and you haven’t responded to any of my desperate sugar-withdrawl texts begging for a visit!!!

I like my design functional with oodles of color, never met a pompom I didn’t like, could quite happily road-test lipgloss for the rest of my life and am on the constant search for the perfect T-shirt. I was a magazine editor for 15 years, wrote a bunch of books that gave teen girls more beauty tips than they’ll ever need and owned a design store…not all at the same time.
Current obsessions: Chola-girl eyeliner, Clare V. french T-shirts, leaving chia seeds in plain yogurt overnight so it turns into pudding and the CVT soft serve ice cream truck. This will change, I can be fickle.
