Mademoiselle Monday: Mlle Bacall
“A woman isn’t complete without a man. But where do you find a man – a real man – these days?” -Lauren Bacall “I am essentially a loner.” -Lauren Bacall “It’s inappropriate and vulgar and absolutely unacceptable to use your private life to sell anything commercially, but I think it’s kind of a sickness.” -Lauren Bacall “I figure if I have my health, can pay the rent and I have my friends, I call it ‘content.’” -Lauren Bacall “I used to tremble from nerves so badly that the only way I could hold my head steady was to lower my chin practically to my chest and look up at Bogie.…
Silky Face
One of the most attractive attributes of a woman’s face (besides the eyes) is a clear flawless complexion. I am a red-head with some reddish undertones in my skin, and a little bit of freckles, not to mention the occasional blemish…all of which I wish to cover. I don’t go for those “tinted moisturizers” or “light coverage” products, because, well…I’m just not one of those kind of ladies. I like a full coverage foundation that gives a gal that porcelain doll look. They discontinued my favorite foundation in my late teens/early twenties, and I’ve never found one that I approve of 100% since then. I have tried many foundations in…
Boudoir Laundry
It was nearly one year ago that I shared with you my favorite Laundry Delicate by Tocca for hand-washing lingerie and delicate items. But, what if you had one of these tufted beauties? I simply adore these Vedette washing machines for the boudoir, designed by Chantal Thomass. 1
It’s Not Fair…
Me: “That’s not fair!” Mom: “Well, life isn’t fair!” Me: “Well, it should be and it is supposed to be!” This is how it went when I was a child and didn’t get my way. And, this is how I feel about something I found out about today. H&M has a “home” section, but the online shipping is not available in the U.S. Ugh! While it’s true that some of the items are best suited for a young lady’s dorm room or first apartment, there are many delightful items that any woman would find worthy of being in her boudoir. Plus, the prices are very affordable. Check out these great…
Happy New Year!!!

Christmas Recap
I hope you are enjoying the Holidays! I sure am. Our first gift (or blessing, rather) actually came before Christmas. My Step-Father had his life saved during a massive heart attack. He is doing well now, and that is the best gift of all, for which I am very thankful. I have to say, I am also quite pleased with those gifts found under the tree, too. Here are some of the fabulous gifts that I received this year. I’d love to hear what you received…feel free to leave a comment! 1. Gucci Guilty 2. Tiffany & Co. Envelope (aka Business Card Holder) 3. Coach Julia Patent Card Case and…
Celebrity Boudoir: Miley Cyrus
Please let me preface this post by saying that I am not a big fan of Miley, nor do I agree with many of her stunts over the past year or two. Yes, I get that a girl has go to grow up and do things that little girls don’t, but when episodes of your show still air on the Disney Channel and five-year-old girls proudly walk into their first day of kindergarten with your face on their new backpack, it’s just not responsible behavior. Besides, doesn’t she know that bong-toking is not becoming, nor ladylike, behavior fit for a woman with a boudoir? HOWEVER….that does not take away from…

Mademoiselle Monday: Mlle Turner

A successful woman is one who can find such a man.” -Lana Turner “A gentleman is simply a patient wolf.” -Lana Turner “I would rather lose a good earring than be caught without make-up.” -Lana Turner [On Hollywood] “It was all beauty and it was all talent, and if you had it they protected you.” -Lana Turner 0
