fashion blitz - braids

more beauty than fashion - more style than beauty. i'm so inspired by big, chunky braids. dear hair, please grow fast & thick.

sweet petula freebie!

i just got an email from cory at sweet petula offering any reader a free bar of soap if you stop into the store (208 s. jackson street in pioneer square) & mention the still dottie post!

etsy wednesday

sweet petula makes the most lovely soaps, fizzies & other bath time goodies. i bought my first dose at momo after asking the owner what smelled so delicious. made in seattle; soaps selling for $7, fizzies for $5 & 80 hour candles for $15. buy some, it's yummy.

eyebrow love

i've always liked the olsen twins, i think i've watched their e! true hollywood story a gazillion times. i mean, i liked them before they were high fashion; i thought they were intriguing when they were designing & selling tween clothes at big box stores in 2000. but right now, i mostly love ashley olsen's eyebrows & after last night, i am sporting my own full-yet-groomed set.

i'm a dedicated wax on patron (& will still visit sara for all waxing not brows), but i couldn't resist getting an eyebrow wax right after a haircut within the same salon. i booked a waxing with belinda at vain & i'm so happy i found her (she's the sweetest thing) - $25, hard wax (gentler on skin), some eyebrow rubbing love & a brush of powder to conceal the red. it's love.
