    My 8-year-old has been taking swimming lessons this winter, and we’re hoping she’ll be able to doggy paddle by summer. One of the things about learning to swim that troubles her is going underwater. I too remember being a bit scared of that unknown (would a fish try to bite me?), but once I got past it, it was one of my favorite parts of being in the water. Well, even if your kid isn’t fearful of diving right in, but just wants to look cool when she’s 20,000 leagues under the sea, you’ll want to check out this summer’s coolest fashion accessory. Bling2O are not your average swimming goggles; these babies are spiced up with a little bit o’ bling to make your favorite [&hellip

    I “heart” Strawberry Shortcake. That’s what I would have said about 30-someodd years ago when talking about my favorite doll. I’ll admit it: I wasn’t captivated by her adorable frock or her gaggle of fruity friends. For this little girl, it was the scented hair that really won me over, and this fascination kept me playing with dolls for longer than a girl would back in the day.

Whatever her rationale, her penchant for posh footwear doesn’t come cheap, so it’s not easy to build a wardrobe when you’re on a budget. Fashionistas in the know have that problem solved, thanks to a line of footwear accessories that give new life to tired tootsies. Hugrz boot wrappers are the hip, new way to update your winter shoes without having to invest in multiple purchase. (Who can afford more than one pair of UGGS, anyhow?) Not matter your mood, there’s [&hellip

    What do you do when your hair is ultra fine and no barrettes or clips will stay place? If you were like me as a teenager, you got down on your hands and knees and prayed to God for curly locks. But if the powers that be were too busy attending to more pressing matters–heaven forbid, literally!–you learned to get creative and find alternative ways to make your hair look half-way decent. Now if you’re an athlete, you’ve got more reasons than plain old beauty to keep your hair in place. If you’re tired of resorting to those sweatbands that make you look like an 80s throwback (think Olivia Newton John’s “Let’s Get Physical”), well, let’s just say your prayers have answered.
