L'ACQUAROSSA - SUPER SEXY SCENT!!!



THIS SCENT IS FANTASTIC!  WHEN I SMELLED IT BY CHANCE AT ONE OF MY FAVORITE DEPARTMENT STORES, I WAS INTRIGUED RIGHT AWAY!  I WAS GOING TO BUY MY SIGNATURE SCENT, BUT I HAD TO ADD THIS TO MY REPERTOIRE.  AS PER FRANGTICA.COM, THE SCENT IS MADE OF:

"........Sicilian mandarin, Calabrian bergamot and a prune accord for the top notes. The heart of the composition blends red-and-gold lantana flowers, rose, orange blossoms and magnolia, while the base notes bring nuances of red cedar, musk and Indonesian patchouli."

IT'S SPICY AND FRUITY!

QUICK SWEET AND SOUR DIP

We all love chicken tenders, strips, fingers, wings, or whatever you want to call them.  We also know that the dip for these things is just as important to the experience.

I have a quick sweet and sour dip. Mix equal parts oil and vinegar together, for example 3 tablespoons of each together.  Then add your favorite fruit jam like raspberry or strawberry, but mix in one part more than the oil and vinegar,  so in this case it would be 4 tablespoons jam to the 3 tablespoons of oil and 3 tablespoons of vinegar.  Now, you can experiment and  add ranch or your favorite creamy dressing to make it creamy.   After you taste it, add more jam if you want it sweeter and more vinegar to be more savory.

ARMANI SI PERFUME - SI! SI! SI!

I love my new Armani Si! Perfume.  Cate Blanchett is the face of the fragrance. It's sweet and fruity.  The vanilla is an aphrodisiac!  I always get compliments from men and women for this fragrance.  At first, I thought it would be too light, but it seems to endure heartily.   I also like to mix it with some of my more aggressive scents to add a subtle new profile into my repertoire.

HOLLYWOOD MEN I LOVE! LUKE EVANS, AKA DRACULA!

There's a new hottie on my list - Luke Evans, soon to be known as the hottest Dracula ever!  He's the star of the soon - to - be - released, "Dracula Untold".  Some of you may already know him as the villain from the hit "Fast and Furious 6".  I think he was the best and sexiest thing in that movie.

He's been around for quite a few years and now he's really making his mark.  In interviews, he is well-spoken, mysterious, a bit reserved and yet, seemingly, accessible.  He's an actor that can really talk about his projects in an intelligent and thought - provoking way.  He's also prone to a bit of joking around.  He's a real guy, who is also super sexy, physically and mentally!

Did I mention that he's SEXY? :-)

FLASH PERFUME RECOMMENDATION! VICTORIA'S SECRET!!!

I was shopping with a friend and we stopped by Victoria's Secret.  Usually,  I only deal with expensive designer perfumes, but that day something caught my eye.  I noticed how many fragrances Victoria's Secret actually had.  It was overwhelming!  I had to try some of them.  Surely, there must be something here that would excite me.

There were a few that intrigued me, but the best was Victoria.   It's fresh and a little bit fruity.  It was a compliment to my chemistry.  I usually like more aggressive scents, but this one enchanted me so much.

So, I bought a box set that was actually in a cute little pink hat box shaped case.  It came with a regular sized scent and a rollerball version, which is great for your purse.  It also had a scent-layering lotion.

If you're intrigued then....TRY IT!
