Dear Santa,


Quick question for you...May I receive fabulous gifts on the evening of Dec. 24th (they can be left w/my doorman - there is no chimney) even though I am Jewish?


Looking forward to your feedback!

xoxo

Dear Chanukah Harry,

Just in case you're reading this blog post, below are the candles I am LOVING this season!

I don't have a chimney, but I do have a doorman. Please feel free to stop by tomorrow night, the first night of Chanukah, and leave any and all goodies downstairs with any of our great doormen.


Happy Chanukah!

Countdown to Chanukah (and yes, Christmas too)

By TheGlamtastic · November 18, 2010 · 0 Comments ·

My favorite time of year is always the consumer frenzy that ensues the weeks between Halloween and New Year's Eve. This window of shopping insanity used to be smaller, but every year it seems that the Christmas lights appear earlier and earlier.

 

So, this year I'm not waiting until after Turkey Day, Black Friday or Cyber Monday to get in the holiday shopping spirit. I'm starting right now!

 

For the next few weeks, I'll be rolling out my Chanukah countdown!

 

What's on your holiday wish list? Tell us about it!

Light It Up For Valentine's Day: Godiva Strawberry Rose Candle, C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Tint & Calvin Klein Euphoria

By TheGlamtastic · February 8, 2010 · 0 Comments ·
Godiva Strawberry Rose Candle $24.95 - http://gifts.redenvelope.com/
Bigelow Chemists: Mentha Lip Tint in Bare Mint $7.50 - http://www.bigelowchemists.com/
Calvin Klein euphoria Eau de Toilette $40 - Sephora
When you think of Valentine's day, images of truffles and cheesy red roses may appear, but I'm hear to change all that! This year, here are some Valentine's Day goodies that may transform your vision of Valentine's Day.

Get It Hot
Close your eyes. All you can smell is the essence of ripened strawberries covered in what your senses have decided is a rich robe of milk chocolate. Open your eyes. What you're really smelling is Godiva Chocolatiers Strawberry Rose Candle, which brings decadent scents of chocolate and fresh strawberries. The scent is strong upon opening the box, but calms once the candle is lit. This candle is sure to inspire some fire in the bedroom...you know what I mean.

Kiss It Better
Mint in my lipgloss, oh how lovey! Experience fresh breath and super soft lips with the help of C.O. Bigolow's Mentha Lip Tint Bare Mint. This lip gloss feels almost electric as peppermint oil hits the lips and adds a layer of sheer, oh-so-sexy gloss. This nudey cutey lip gloss offers a refreshing, cooling sensation. It keeps lips tingling for at least 5 minutes and leaves a minty, kissable smile for a few hours after application.

Gets You Hot or Not?
There is always one fragrance that screms sex! Not in a dirty, slutty way, but in a come hither way. This year, that fragrance is of course Calvin Klein's Europhia. This sensual scent may turn your Valentine's Day from PG to R-rated quite quickly. The scent utilizes a powerful combination of pomegranate, persimmon, black orchid, lotus blossom, champaca flower, liquid amber, mahogany wood, black violet, cream accord, and the list goes. on.

This is one of those fragrances that has women wanting to be around you and men swarming around you. They just can't get enough!

What is your Valentine's Day secret? Dare to share?

Burn Baby Burn: The Perfect Holiday Candles

By TheGlamtastic · December 17, 2009 · 1 Comment ·
This holiday season, it's all about keeping the candles burning! I have to have fabulous candles at my desk at work, by my bedside, on my living room table, in the kitchen...I'm a fan!

This year, here are my favorite holiday candle must-haves:

NEST Holiday Candle ($30): It may not feel like the holidays are here, but the NEST Holiday Candle can fill any room with heavenly holiday scents. This stunning three wick candle gives off inviting pomegranate, Mandarin orange, pine, cloves and cinnamon and arrives in a red and gold velvet box. It's a sleek gift with long lasting burning power - 150 hours worth. Love that!

Godiva Black Almond Truffle Candle ($22): This is the ultimate gift for chocolate lovers that want to spare themselves the additional calories, while still enjoying the rich aroma of Godiva chocolates.

This scented candle is inspired by the Godiva creamy roasted almond truffle, composed of roasted black almonds, velvet dark chocolate, with a hint of black pepper, golden honey and decedent essences. This is the perfect gift for the chocolate lover in your life! I just can't get enough of it!

Niven Morgan's Marrakesh Orange Blossom Candle ($30): I love transformative fragrances and the Marrakesh Orange Blossom Candle does just that! This scented candle was created to transport you from your cubicle to a lavish beachside vacation, with bazaars, flowers, spices and mystery all around you. Take a mental getaway with this relaxing holiday treat.

All candles are available at http://www.neimanmarcus.com/ if you'd like to try them!

Which candle is your favorite? Tell us about it!


Please note: I did receive PR samples to test.
