My Top Ten

by - edited

This week’s PM Style blog is in tribute to my bank account crying itself to sleep lately.

Nonetheless, here is mycurrent top ten. Hope u likey!

10. A225674 ST Tropez Pro Light Portable Spray Tan Device - This was a customer request and took two years to develop. It's just like going to get a spray tan, and it’s actually quicker, easier and cheaper (because you use less product due to the fine mist) than regular self tanning mousses and lotions. Best customer review of this top rated little number: “The salons are going to be hating St.Tropez for releasing this!” Yes they are. Mine is on the way.

9. A272372 Halston Wide Leg Ponte Pants aka Gaucho Pants - Have you heard or seen the new trend, gauchos or culottes? Every designer is showing them this year and I’m so glad. I never loved traditional crop pants. The tapered leg does tragic things for my body silhouette. I’ve always loved a wide leg but you will notice I rarely, if ever, wear pants. A.) I love dress B.) pants are normally form fitting and woven. These Halstons just arrived at my door and I can’t wait to try. Knit. Wide leg=Zero hips. Comfy. Designer. And look great with heels.

8. M47544 Mama Mancini Meatballs, Turkey - So I don’t cook, we’ve long established that. So recently Joe gets me going on this ‘Slow Carb’ diet. So of course, I’m stuck finding things to eat that fit the bill and are protein based because…again, I don’t cook. So I just happen to be getting off the air one Tuesday night when Dan Wheeler is kicking off a meatball TSV. I hadn’t eaten nearly all day so I score a little taste behind the scenes. Wow, like those are seriously good. So there you go, another order. On its way to my house.

7. A274259 Marc Fisher Leather Peep Toe Wedge - So Marc is big time. His Dad started Nine West, and aside from his own branded footwear line, he also is the manufacturer behind GUESS shoes and the new highly popular Kylie+Kendall line. Yes, Kardashians. His footwear is top quality and on trend. And comfortable. So when I saw these, I loved the suede story and the wedge situation bc I need a pair of heels that aren’t heels because my regular heels are beginning to kill my feet. Yes my bad feet that you all ask how I can wear heels now all the time. Theres a difference between “can” and “should”. My feet are admittedly paying a price. They are sore every day I don’t work. But I wear my trusty orthotics and Vionics and well, bite the bullet I do to have the joy of heels in my life. My foot doctor wants me doing stretching…

6. V32778 Stretch Refle - So BECAUSE my foot doctor wants me doing stretching, largely to comfort and treat my aching achilles, I got this. It sold out on my show The Find this week. Invented by a Japanese chiropractor who wanted to invent a device his patients could use at home for relief and comfort…it uses airbags to stretch your neck, back and feet. Its pretty crazy the increased range of motion and flexibility it provided to our presentation models. So, one more thing coming to my home. The pilates guest says to use it once a day.

5. F12210 Obsidian 5’ Slide Board - I don’t exercise so I’m a perfect example of someone who gets sucked into watching presentations and thinking that could be me. Case in point, Rick selling this live from L.A. a few weeks ago with B

4. J318381 Shawn’s Courage Charms - Bought these for my friend Jenny (who I also shipped the Obsidian Slide Board to as a gift) because Jen is struggling with health issues and the “blues” that come from them. She needs a strong and hearty dose of hope, flat out courage, to keep going and believing. So before the Courage charms are retired, I sent her them.

3. Sloggers and Scott Living lantern / Solar LED Marquee Animal - My bestie Laurie’s birthday is in April and she’s a total gardening and home decor addict. She loves a great farmer's market, plants, and anything rustic and shabby chic. These 3 early birthday gifts will be perfect on her back porch. It's covered with a wood overhang like in a vineyard, and vines grow up and over it. I love gifting. Another reason .

2. A262701 Breezies s/4 Long Leg panties - It’s possible you saw me flash my shapewear when I was selling the St Tropez spray device this week. I couldn’t help but start using it on myself during the sell but WHOOPS there we go, hiked up my dress a littllllllleeeee too high. I live for a good shapewear bodysuit, but when I wear dresses that aren’t conducive to the top of a bodysuit, then I live for great boy shorts. I have worn my old Jockeys for so long it's almost sinful so it was time for a fresh set. Boom!

1. Mally Lip Sculpting Double Ended Pencil Duo & Mally See the Light Camouflage Concealer with Brush - Mally did my makeup this week and as usual I was in heaven. She used both of these items on me and again, heaven. Though I’ve been wearing a colored lip lately, she decided to take me back to a fierce nude lip for the night, and this is how. Plus this concealer (PS I normally hate concealer) was angelic. Like, amazing. So now we are using this on me in the QVC salon full-time.
