His own personal Angel

I woke up Thursday morning to such disappointing news. My assistant and I were on the east coast for the weekend (celeb. emergency), when she told me that my amazing flat hair iron was dead. That was disappointment #1. Then when I was manually styling my hair, staring in the mirror, I noticed some Breaking News in the reflection. THE Smooth Criminal himself was pronounced dead, along with the moisture and shine in my hair.

My little Lotus Blossom and I were extremely upset to also learn that THE Glamorous Farrah Fawcett had also passed. That same morning. THE definition of a 1970's ultra-feminine icon. An inspiration to beautiful women everywhere. Including me.

Three disappointments in the matter of an hour.

The highlight of my day was when L. Blossom found the perfect replacement: A Verseo Ceramic Pro flat iron. If only she had discovered this amazing product sooner. At least my precious hair wouldn't be as depressed. I ordered three, then as I continued staring at the messy haired man in the mirror, I remembered M.J.'s lyrics: "If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then make a change."

I just have to wait a couple days until my Ceramic Pro arrives.

One for One...

... is much classier than "an eye for an eye." And I, Takahatchi, being the classiest of them all, would like to thank Mr. Blake Mycoskie, the founder of TOMS Shoes (also a classy gentleman) , for beginning the One for One Movement: For every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of shoes to a child in need.

And believe me, there's more children in need than adults.

Trust me, I know some adults who have a pair of shoes for every day of the year... for the next 10 years. Take for example, Mz. Farrah Sterling.

I give myself credit for introducing her to TOMS, but I would like to thank her assistant, Ronna, for posting TOMS Shoes on the Viva Swag Accessory page. Taking this into consideration, I have purchased several pairs for myself (because I do have the ability to empathize), and one pair for my little lotus blossom, my assistant, Christine, because I want to bring joy and happiness to her lovely feet.

I also want to bring joy and happiness to YOU and Mz. Sterling by introducing NVEY ECO's Organic Lip Plumper. Take it from me, it's a $40 chemical-free miracle, and it will save you a trip to the cosmetic surgeon's office.

Much Respect. To you. Your feet. Your lips.

Ciao BeLLa!

AND Grazie for patiently waiting, for my return that is. Not only have I been sipping on Limoncello's and indulging in cannoli's, but I have been working on an exclusive project! Yes, yours truly, has been in Italy, working on the most anticipated movie of this year. And what may that be? I'll give you a hint, I had to use a LOT of that amazing Hi-Definition Foundation from Smashbox.....and marvelous shimmery/sparkly GENIE COLORES from COLORESCIENCE!

Now, you're either a crazed fan or a smart cookie. Go figure it out! Then go browse my simply stunning swag selections. My assistant will humbly appreciate it.
