The J. Crew nobody saw coming...

It has been an intense year for J. Crew... not only did they promoted the ever sophisticated and fashionable creative director, Jenna Lyons, to be president, while she catapolted the brand from expected and preppy into mainstream fashionista territory, but now they are taking FASHION WEEK BY STORM!!!

Setpember 13, 2011, J. Crew will be making their debut at the Licoln Center Mercedes Benz Fashion Showcase to prove to the CFDA that they have what it takes to play in the big leagues.

John Frieda- Where have you been all my life?

I am completely OBSESSED with a new hair product that may save me thousands of dollars a year for a mere $8 a month thanks to my girl JC....

Introducing John Frieda Sheer Blonde Go Blonder Controlled Lightening Spray

I had been complimenting my friend about her gorgeous hair color when she confessed that it was nothing more than a drugstore purchase that created the amazing blonde locks she was rocking.

I hit the drugstore to track it down right away but was sad to find it was sold out.. after going to every local CVS and Duane Reade in my neighborhood I hit up Bed Bath and Beyond which I recently noticed carried beauty products and was in luck.

All you do is spray your towel dried hair and apply the heat of a hair dryer and/or straightening iron and within the first 2 times you do this you will feel like a new woman.

I was in need of coloring my roots the day I first started using this product- now I have received more compliments than ever about my new more natural looking blonde mane!!

Thanks JC!!!
