Lolita Lempicka & Feeling Sexy

I use only one perfume

I traveled down quite a road to find it

I think it describes me

Not very many people use it

It's gotten much more popular though

It makes me feel sexy

I'm not even sure why

I guess it's because I found it

At the same time I found myself

As a woman

And not some kid

Around the same time I found Lolita Lempicka

I found out that I'm sexy

Before that I never thought I was ugly

But I never would've described myself as sexy

Cute maybe,

But not sexy

I smelled it in a magazine

Years before I ran into Lolita in person

I don't remember what magazine

I looked for it in other magazines

And never found it

I was living a pretty good year

Driving a little red Cavalier

Singing at the top of my lungs

All around town

I had my friends

Good friends

Recent friends

That I found by myself

They were all over the place

Just like I was all over the place

Two went to different schools

Two were in different grades

None of them knew each other

YET!

I went to high school

During the day

I took just the classes I wanted

AP European History, AP English, and AP Art Portfolio

I then took community college classes at night

My classes all tied together

I was happy to skip high school

To write my college papers

And then write my high school papers

On topics I learned in college

I worked

Almost every night

I loved working

I loved paying for myself

I felt grown

And I got a 2nd job

A dream job

House sitting in paradise

After work I drove up all these back roads

To end up on a dirt road

On the edge of the Ocala National Forest

To be greeted by bloodhounds at the gate

And the Umatilla Villa

Vacation by another's vacation!

Swimming pool

NASA designed mattress

Satellite TV

Fridge full of Yoo-hoos

Hammock in the shade

Jacuzzi tub with candles

And I was getting PAID to stay there!

Well I sat around drinking Yoo-hoos

And watching CMT

And I'd look at all the female singer-songwriters

And wish I was that pretty

And that sexy

I found Lolita Lempicka again

On the shelf in that amazing bathroom

with the Jacuzzi tub

And I decided to try some

Even though it wasn't mine

And I smelled beautiful

I stepped out of that Jacuzzi tub

Onto the cold white floor

In front of that bathroom's

enormous wall length mirror

And I saw myself as sexy

And it had nothing to do with anyone else

So I wear Lolita Lempicka

It's French

The French have a reputation

For being sexy

I love that Lolita Lempicka is not endorsed by any celebrity

I think that people care too much about celebrities

Celebrities are just people who have a job that puts them in the public eye

Celebrities have reputations that come with them

Some positive reputations easily turn negative

But 1st and foremost, celebrity endorsement doesn't celebrate the sexiness of the individual buyer.

Women need to embrace their own sexiness

And that sexiness has lots of varieties

I think that women with body issues should take figure drawing

Nothing makes you appreciate the human form like drawing nude models of all shapes and sizes

I didn't realize it at the time, but Lolita Lempicka's brand image also fits me very well.

Romantic hand drawn illustrations fill the website and packaging

It has a creative fairytale apple shaped bottle, image and designer to match.

Lolita Lempicka is named after it's designer Lolita Lempicka

I think that his woman really is a great role model for what I strive to be.

She is a creative individual who is open to many different ventures

She designs dresses inspired by the '30s and '40s lace and silk negligees and XVIIth century Baroque period.

She designed a luxury Nissan Micra

And a Samsung Mobile Phone

And luggage

As a person with many different ideas and varied interests it is inspiring to hear about someone who refuses to limit her repertoire

Not only empowering, but pretty darn sexy.

Lady Speed Stick Prevents Cut-Offs & Tie-Dyes

After eight years of using Dove deodorant, I have switched to Lady Speed Stick... Honestly, I never previously considered Lady Speed Stick. The package design and logo could definitely use some work, along with the name. Honestly it reminds me of female high school sports from the '70s... you know "Lady Jackets" or "Lady Eagles" stitched across now deteriorating uniforms or found on faded vintage t-shirts. "Lady" is a throwback to the days of a newly passed Title XI and the door opening for women athletes. You rarely hear "Lady" now unless it's a team trying to be cute... gosh we are all past that now... We are all bona fide Eagles, Jackets, ect. What does gender have to do with it?

But anyway,
Lady Speed Stick now has bumped it up a notch with some new technology thrown in their antiquated stick. They should seriously at least go '60s space ship vintage with this amazing new breakthrough... I think refillable stainless steel would be cool, with some curves on it.

Ta Da!! Lady Speed Stick Stainguard now prevents yellow stains and to think I've been intensely researching laundry stain removers for years with no results. You know that old wise phrase, "An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure", well that is especially true if there is no cure and your favorite white shirt is starting to embarrass. In fact I even went as far as tie-dying all my old white shirts..."well if it's multicolored who's going to notice a little yellow."

I know I've probably over shared and I hope you all don't think I'm gross.
I really am not a smelly person. I promise.
At least you know I wear deodorant and all my new white shirts will stay white in the pits.
No more tie-dye and cut-off sleeves! I suwannee! Unless it's the look I'm goin' for :)
