NYE – Party Tricks For Dancing Divas

One thing I do know for sure is that there will be a lot of partying going on tonight, and hopefully, you’ll be rocking into 2011. I’m sure many of you will be getting all dolled up, so here are some party smarty tricks I’ve been saving to share with you tonight. Smiling Feet on the dance floor Don’t let aching feet stop you from dancing the night away and please girls, keep your shoes on! Women who walk around all dressed up and barefoot look super trashy.

Fab Find Friday – Justin Case

Haven’t you ever wished you could size down all your must have cosmetics, so that you can keep them with you just in case? With party season just around the corner, I found the perfect handbag-must-have, from none other than one of the most innovative cosmetics companies – Benefit.

Inside you’ll find a miniature Calafornia Kissn – the gloss that brightens your smile and gives you minty-fresh breath. You’ll also find Benefits infamous Benetint potion, which can be used as a rose-tinted lipstick or cheek stain.
