Shave It or Bare It?

Please note: I did not receive editorial samples.
It's freezing! Before I exit my apartment, I bundle up in my warmest Burberry scarf, earmuffs, hat and gloves, and zip myself into my "Marshmallow Man" coat. However, the minute I walk outside my freshly shaven, silky legs are covered in goose bumps! I HATE WINTER!

In the winter, most women I know spend so much time hydrating dry skin, exfoliating or just keeping warm, that shaving sometimes tumbles down the priority list and ends up landing near the bottom with trash old beauty magazines or clean out the fridge.

After polling my friends, I want some fresh data. I want to know what YOU think!!!

Pop Quiz:

When It comes to your legs, are you a:
A) Waxer
B) Shaver
C) Other ________________ (NAIR, Lazer Girl, Pray for the hair to stop growing, etc)

In the winter months, would you say that you shave your legs:
A) Once a week to avoid feeling like a guerilla
B) Every few days
C) Everyday - it's a must on my list

Your main motivation for shaving your legs is:
A) Hygiene
B) I don't want to get caught in a make-out session with hairy legs
C) I prefer the way it looks and feels

After spending my Valentine's Day in a tight, hot pink belted Rebecca Taylor dress (yes, it was so hot), black stockings and super high booties, my silky legs were shaking and I was craving a hoodie! Apparently, that's not a sexy look. Who knew?!

Tell us your winter beauty secrets! When it comes to winter beauty maintenance, would you prefer to shave it or bare it?

P.S. This Valentine's Day Please Get Me...

My V-Day Beauty Wish List
Please note: I did receive select editorial samples for review.


This Valentine's Day is my first as a wife. Wow, that makes me sound old and I am so not. Don't get me wrong, I'm no child bride, but after being married for just nine months it all feels so new, so fresh, so surreal...

And like any good wife, I try to help my new hubby out whenever possible. I don't play games or beat around the bush regarding what I may or may not want. If I did, I'd end up with a see-through cashmere turtle neck dress - no, I am not kidding. He almost purchased that as my "special surprise" gift  last V-day. Of course, I would have given him a big hug, super smooch and thanked him.

This year, here's my beauty wish list (in case my husband happens to be reading this)...
