$5 Fashion Finds

By: Chrysa Smith If we said it once, we said it---well at least twice. One way to jazz up, fashion forward, youth up your wardrobe is with some fun fashion accessories.

Although it's classic, whether you're wearing the infamous little black dress or a top with leggings, [...]

I’m not sure who wrote this, but I received it the other day from my mom, who, oddly enough, has been the perpetrator who forwarded me virtually every one of the offending emails listed.

Amal Alamuddin is the name of the woman who appears to be sporting a ring, ostensibly bestowed by you. If pictures are to be believed (I mean, let's face it, anyone can Photoshop a [...]
