We’ve teamed up with HOTmilk lingerie to offer you a free maternity camisole or bra and French panty set. I love HOTmilk because they are all about reminding moms-to-be that there is still a sexy woman underneath the loving mother , and that woman deserves a collection of pretty lingerie full of lace and ribbons with a heaping dose of attitude.

I love clean starts. As a recent divorcee and a woman who left a successful career to launch my own business, I know a thing or two about starting over, reinventing yourself and going after the life you want for yourself.

I wanted to blog often from the Bahamas. Promise. But I was having too much fun!
The JetAdventure media trip to the new Atlantis Kids Adventures was simply marvelous! It was sponsored by JetBlue, Atlantis and Lego. Obviously, the resort is beyond gorgeous. The kids and I had so much fun at the water park, I broke all of my hair rules.

I really couldn't believe the recent spread in Vanity Fair heralding the next generation of Hollywood starlets.
It was bad enough that they couldn't (or didn't try) to find at least one person of color to include in their annual "New Hollywood" spread in the March issue. They've been taking a little heat for this ridiculous oversight.
