Saipua’s Basil Soap

Have you tried Saipua’s newest Basil soap?  I just treated myself to one today and my whole bathroom smells DIVINE.

Mademoiselle

I worked at Mademoiselle magazine from 1995 to 2000, right before Conde Nast sadly shuttered its doors.  It saddens me that it’s now been almost ten years since it’s been in publication.   Of course I have all of the issues from when I was an editor there saved {at my parents’ house- sorry mom!} but I’ve also bought many vintage issues over the years, some of which I’m selling on eBay.  {We have to make room for the newest addition to the family two months from now!}

My faves are this one, for it’s gorgeous and totally unique cover, and this one because of the great fashion career articles….

If we were having a girl…

she would most certainly be getting these shoes and boots!  How chic!!
