The busy girl's guide to looking great

My maiden voyage in the land of blog and I don't feel quite ready. I don't look the part of the modern wife- I am 7 months pregnant in mis-matched pajamas and I need a haircut. I have also been thinking about some highlights er...maybe..... low lights (since its the end of summer here shortly).  However I type disappointedly because I haven't a clue! I should know exactly what to do with my great hair predicament,  because I was modern enough to buy a book called "The busy girl's guide to looking great"

I bought the book while rejoicing the fashionista saints who were looking down on me with pity and highlight hints from above. Imagine my further success when I was finding this book on the clearance table.(while running an errand at the bookstore and in a hurry).

The back cover says it's a fabulous book and I bet that the tips for make-up, hair (highlights) and diets are incredible. The problem is... I am too busy to read it! I would laugh at the cliche of it all if I didn't feel victim to a marketing ploy! Preying on the weak-minded busy moms/wives hoping this book would make them feel like they had a personal stylist in their back pocket. .  Yep haven't done anything but dust the cover of the book on my nightstand.

One for the ad execs and Zero for the modern wife......At least the cover looks great.

What makes you think of summer the most?
