Dreaming of Spring
I’m already dreaming of Spring as Houston approaches freezing temperatures tonight. Hopefully, winter won’t stay too long with colors like these. Thank you Essie for always bringing a little warmth to our fingernail polish no matter how cold it gets outside.

Steve Jobs
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
-Steve Jobs-

New Fav
I’m really a no frills kind of a girl when it comes to my hair. I am naturally blessed with straight hair. It is really easy to manage and for that, I’m thankful. My normal routine isn’t really a routine even. I get out of the shower and just let my hair naturally air dry. Ahh, the joys of Asian hair — no curling, no bends, etc. Every so often, I do like to add extra volume and do something a little more polished. I’ll blow dry my hair with a round brush and voila — instant volume and bounce. With the Houston humidity, I recommend Loreal’s Elnett Satin Hairspray. For a long time, this product could only be purchased in Europe. Now, it can be found in the U.S. at stores like Target and Ulta. It is the best hairspray ever. It holds but keeps the hair soft to the touch. You can even comb through to restyle and reshape! Try it and I promise you will love the natural results.
