Daily Dose: 5 Vitamin Must Haves

I have to say that I am pretty good about taking my vitamins everyday...except for when I forget. But I haven't always been as diligent as I am now. Up until late teens I could only swallow teeny-tiny little pills...so I know your pain if you are one of those people.

I know vitamins aren't something that everyone immediately buys or takes, yet we all hear or read that they're important. So I thought this bit of information from Dr. Michael Roizen, co-author of You: Staying Young would be helpful and easy!

He says that 5 vitamins will help you everyday. Let's break it down:
You: Staying Young: The Owner's Manual for Extending Your Warranty1) One Multivitamin for health and life longevity.
2) Two 600 milligrams of DHA/omega-3 fatty acid (fish oil) for brain function.
3) One 1,000 IU vitamin D for bone and heart health.
4) One 200 milligrams of magnesium to counter act bloat and constipation.

I hope you found this helpful. Now you know what to buy and take to give yourself a quick dose of health.

Happy Health,

Look Hot in Vintage Glam:Perfect Little Plus Size Black Dress for Date Nights or Special Ocassions

Honestly, I know how hard it can be to find a nice dress when you have an event to go to. As a plus size lady myself, it's not always easy to find something glam/retro and not have it look like my great-grandmother would wear it!!! I want sexy not dumpy. I want to be on the dance floor not in the corner.

Kiyonna is the place that I turn to for such occasions and I know you will really love what you see. I adore this dress. It's the perfect mix of vintage glam and simplicity combined. Think Marylin Monroe and Jane Mansfield combined...sexy sophistication.

I have bought quite a few items from Kiyonna and love them all. This dress is on the list to pick up. Plus it has really good customer reviews. AND it ranges from size 10-12 to a 32-34...yeah I'm serious!!! So if you or someone close to you is plus size then click on the pic below to find out more about my Little Black Dress Pick of the Day. It will save so many tears of frustration. And YOU WILL LOOK HOT!!! I'm just saying!;)







Happy Fashions,

Fergie's New Ad Campaign for Avon

According to beauty journalist Rachel Jacoby at instyle.com,"Fergie’s debut ad campaign for Avon features the songstress in a sexy cut-out lace mini-dress with an armful of edgy bangles."

She described the scent, Outspoken (available for purchase later this month), "[as] everything Fergie—fresh and modern—with exotic notes of passionflower, ebony, saffron and even black leather!" In October 2009 when her appointment to Avon was announced, Fergie told WWD.com that “It was very important to me to bring what I have to the table. I’m a bit more rock and roll than some of the other artists, and Avon has really allowed my personality to come through.”

These are two new pics of her Avon ad.

Men in heels: WATCH NOW Lady Gaga's Newest Video Alejandro

Men with bowl hair cuts in high heels: Have you seen Lady Gaga's latest video Alejandro? It's both minimal and overdone in the Gaga style we have come to enjoy and expect...and it's awesome. Just when you think you know what she is going to do next she switches it up. Yet she remains true to her art form philosophy.

One thing I do notice is a video catalogue reference, purposeful or not, to some of Madonna's videos. Maybe it's coincidental but it does show how groundbreaking Madonna has been and continues to be.

Hope you enjoy,
Elisa L'Amour xoxo
