How pretty is this ring?! I found it on topshops website and it only costs £6.00. Too bad it is out of stock…bummer.

Usually I cannot stand Angelina Jolie mostly because she stole Brad Pitt from Jennifer Aniston and I have yet to forgive her, but I must admit she looks gorgeous here. Green is my favorite color, whether it’s to look at or wear myself…I call it my happy color.

This picture is from the Cannes Film Festival where she was promoting her new film with Jack Black called Kung Fu Panda. AND apparently she is expecting twin girls.

I could only hope to look that good when I am pregnant.

 As you may know from previous posts, I adore Patricia Field, the stylists of Sex and the City. She was offered to give Diet Coke bottles a bit of a makeover with the ‘Diet Coke City Collection’. Patricia worked with a friend of hers who is an artist to come up with these four quirky bottle designs (just in time for the Sex and the City movie). “The Diet Coke City Collection captures today’s modern women - confident, glamorous, sexy and more in charge of their own lives - and represents the areas of life that are most important to them such as career, passion, love and fashion,” she said in an article on Vogues website.

As of now, I believe they are only being sold in Selfridges stores here in the UK, but if I find out that the bottles are making it worldwide I will let you know.

Dear Readers, 

The UBTC store is now open!

The store is in association with Ebay and I have made it easier for you to search for fashion and beauty related items by creating categories on the left sidebar. The layout is not complete yet, but I just wanted to get it up and running. The store is great because some of the clothes and products that I mention on the site you can find and bid on through the store, and at a lower cost!

Hopefully you will find lots of goodies!

Happy Shopping!

I just called Clarins here in the UK. They are not selling the shimmer body oil this summer because of packaging issues, but they will hopefully relaunch it in the near future!

Great products for a fake tan!

1. Lancaster’s Satin Bronze Dry Oil Spray - I HIGHLY SUGGEST! Or any of the Lancaster self tanning products.

2. Darphin’s Skin Bronze Self Tanning Face Tinted Gel

3. L’Oreal’s Glam Bronze Micro-Fine Spray Foundation - If you want an instant tan use this product. It’s like body makeup, dries quickly and lasts all day.

Overall Best! Fake tan products:

* Holiday Skin by Johnson’s: I use this every day and after a few days I have a very natural tan…it works very well if you want a subtle tan and glow.

* L’Oreal: Sublime Bronze Self Tanning Gel

* Clarins: Delicious Self Tanning Cream

*** What I am trying to find:

Clarins Shimmer Body Oil. It is very hard to find, so if anyone uses it or knows where to find it, let me know!

Go short! (if you are brave enough)

These pictures are from an email that my Mom sent me a few days ago with the title: Think your shoes are uncomfortable?
The latest rage in Japan …. 

I think I like my uncomfortable shoes much more now….!
  

Today I painted my nails with this color. It is call ‘Hard to get’ from Essie. Their website describes the color as “flirty pink, very light yet slightly bright” and it looks really beautiful on my nails! I believe it is part of their new summer collection.
