When I moved to Georgia I wanted a new look but didn’t want to spend tremendous amount of money giving myself a makeover.

Hair: Buy boxed hair color and do it yourself in your bathroom. This way you can get the color without spending enormous amounts in the hair salon. Once your hair is colored you can then go to an inexpensive hair salon around the corner of your house. Generally, I would not recommend a salon you are not familiar with, but to receive just a trim, any salon will do. Women underestimate the power of a hair trim.

Buying your wedding dress can be one of the most exciting days during your planning process as well as one of your most stressful days. You want to make sure you look like an absolute princess the day of your wedding, and ladies, relax and breathe, you will! But I must warn you of the three major no-no’s women must be aware of when dress shopping. Make sure you stay away from committing anyone of these wedding dress shopping crimes.
1) Do not take more than 3 people to the dress fitting. Of course a bride wants another opinion, but the problems begins when there are too many opinions. Too many opinions make it harder for you to come to a decision, and at times, make you feel more stressed. The fewer people attending the dress fitting the better, but if you must have more than one, make your cut off at three. Read the rest of this entry »
