Be (B)eautiful: I am absolutely obsessed with ‘splash of grenadine‘ nail color by Essie. It has been my summer staple and its on my fingers right now as I type this!  The color is appropriate for the office yet fun enough for summer nights. I love love LOVE it! Be (A)uthentic: When it comes to flirting a girls best weapon of choice is NOT her cleavage, but her smile. Your smile is an invitation for conversation. When you smile while speaking to others they cant help but to smile as well. Smiling also makes you look 100 times prettier no matter what you may be wearing or how you may be feeling. Be (D)etermined: On your rise for corporate success its important that you treat everyone with equal amounts of respect. You treat the janitor with the same respect you treat the CEO. It’s not about being too nice or a pushover, but it’s about respect that everyone rightfully deserves. Being a successful woman doesn’t mean you need to be rude or mean to those …

“Spring cleaning is a great motivator. Why confine it to Spring?”

Be (B)eautiful: I’m a bit late with this, but better late than never I always say! Spring cleaning? Have you done it yet? Regardless, of your answer I hope you always donate your old goodies (clothes, shoes, bags, etc). Throwing those things away would be insane! I found some great sites for donating your fab items. Is your old prom dress still hanging in your closet, or better yet- the dress you wore to your EX b/f’s prom?! Why not donate it? Help out a young girl who may not be able to afford going to prom. I love the name of this site http://www.cinderellaproject.net and also, http://www.operationfairydust.org.  Another really great organization to donate to is http://www.dressforsuccess.org – looking good/appropriate for job interviews/work is so important, but can be really costly. So donate some of your old slacks, button ups, blazers,etc. Make someone else feel just as (B)eautiful as you do everyday! Be (A)uthentic: Did you know that when you are on the phone with someone they can hear you smiling? Try it! People can …

“It’s [beauty] a kind of radiance. People who possess a true inner beauty, their eyes are a little brighter, their skin a little more dewy. They vibrate at a different frequency.”~Cameron Diaz

Hello BAD girls! So I was watching the season finale of the Jessica Simpson show,” The Price of Beauty” on VH1 last night and it inspired me for today’s post. Did you know that only 2% of women consider themselves Beautiful?! I find that number to be astonishing! I couldn’t believe it! There is clearly something wrong with today’s society for that to be such a small number. More women need to learn to love and accept themselves. Unfortunately, the media and Hollywood don’t help much, i.e Heidi Montag having 10 surgeries to completely change her appearance because she lacks inner beauty and confidence. I fear for the future of women and I hope to help with this initiative. Jessica Simpson is an Ambassador for Operation Smile and has partnered with VH1 to start the Smiles for Smiles Campaign! So I am asking all you Beautiful BAD girls out there to HELP! Here is what you need to do: 1. Get on Facebook and pick out your best photo with your most Beautiful Smile (I …
