One Day or Day One

Have you made that decision yet? “One Day” means some day in the future. “One day I’ll visit Spain.” The deeper meaning though is that it’s never going happen; it’s wishful thinking. The person waiting for one day is not doing anything to make it happen. “One day” never comes. “Day One” means the first…

No elegance is possible without perfume. It is the unseen, unforgettable, ultimate accessory – Coco Chanel Despite the fact that it feels like its winter outside, spring is in the air and its time to shift from smoky fire, wood and leather, strong espresso and evergreen scents to fun, feminine, fresh, and flirty scents.

Spring is approaching and my thoughts of long, flowing strawberry blonde hair are creeping back in. Ive been wearing my hair short for about 2 years now, but that doesn’t stop me from going in my wig drawer and looking through my variety of “units” (a unit is a more professional term for a wig)…
