Domino is one of my favorite magazine's so it takes me a little longer to read it, I love the images and decor. In the November 2008 issue of Domino, the editor wrote about the “new” luxury and how today’s luxury goods are not just products but cultural artifacts and/or every day items. So she posed a question, what things in your life or surroundings is considered luxurious.
My personal luxuries are:
* A nice hot bath with candles
* My favorite Jo Malone scent
* Fresh Flowers
* The color white
* Mani/Pedi
* A comfy bed and fresh white linens
* Havaiana flip-flops
* Pure time with my family
* Time
What is your luxury?

Cartoon Gossip - Ashton & Todd Style
I am a huge fan of Todd Goldman. One of my amazing LL sisters shared one of Ashton Kutcher's new project called Blahgirls.com a new web series based on Todd Goldmans Blah Girls characters. I found it truly hilarious and girly. I love how they incorporate celebrity gossip with a cartoon feel to it. Check out the video below and enjoy their website!

Tone it Up!
Body+Soul magazine had a great article on tips to help me get in shape. When it comes to working out, I'm such a procrastinator! Visually (in my mind) I see myself thinner but it takes more than visualizing, it's taking "action" on my vision and dumping the excuses (oh you should hear my excuses).
Here's a few toning tips:
- Take your meetings on the road by turning a sit-down session into a walk-and-talk.
- Set an alarm to remind you to stand up at least once every hour.
- Go dancing once a week
- Don't take your TV commercials sitting down. Get up and move around; do a few jumping jacks or physical chores until the program comes back on.
- Skip the elevator and take the stairs.
- Play the Dance Dance Revolution video game (you don't have to be a kid to enjoy it).
- Have (more) sex.
- Get a cardio workout DVD and do it 1 to 2 times a week.

Tory Burch: The Hottest Summer Sandal!
I love Tory Burch! Tory's summer sandal collection is hot - she has various styles with her signature gold emblem. You have to pick up a pair to wear with your neon manicured toes. You are in luck because she has a great sale going on, get a pair before they sell out!

Bring the on the curves....
This ad is awesome! I was browsing through Lucky Magazine (I thought I was going to stop reading it but - ok your right, it's a pretty good mag) I glanced at this ad for Curvation and immediately felt like I could identify with this woman. I am also a curvaceous and petite black woman so I felt connected with this ad as there aren't many ads that feature curvaceous women to begin with, let alone black women. I usually find the really good multi-racial ads in Essence magazine. Glossies are so stereotypical and this ad defies the image that "skinny is in". It is ok to be curvy with hips, shapely legs and a bust line that most women pay to have, this ad says basically brings truth that we are all human!
