Time To Be Naughty
Posted by Stephanie | Filed under ActivATE
In honor of tonight’s long-awaited, girls night out “mom prom” event, I thought I’d fire up a little Naughty Betty for all of the lovely ladies in taffeta. Nothin’ like a little brutal honesty, all prettied up as an official start to prom day. And by the way, the mom jeans thing? I couldn’t agree more. [...]

Whether it be sky-dive-daring or brazillian-bikini-wax-daring … what are you waiting for? We all have our own definition of “daring” but you know what I think? I think we all need to dig a little deeper to revisit our sense of adventure. You know… like when we were kids?

Heads up. Today I’m adopting a brilliant idea for the good of my family.
