All it took was one home dermabrasion treatment with the Personal Microderm [...]

Twisted Silver Review-EUREKA!

July 16, 2010

My love affair with Twisted Silver continues with my newest piece, Eureka. The Eureka necklace, a newer addition to The Renegade Trip Collection is one of Twisted Silver’s more versatile pieces.

This Summer is NOT quite what I expected…..

July 8, 2010

Not only has the weather been absolutely wacky with incredibly mild days (high’s in the low 80′s) and chilly nights (dipping down to the 50′s), it hasn’t been nearly as relaxing as I had anticipated.
