Dear Friend,
 On A Personal Note...
I love February! This month is all about heart... showing it, expressing it,
listening to it, sharing it and loving it! This is the perfect time to get in
touch with your heart and do some things that make your heart feel good. Like
making homemade Valentines, baking cookies for someone special, slipping off to
a romantic sappy matinee with your honey or best friend, slipping into an
incredibly sexy bargain that will get your heart pounding or taking your heart
in for a check up to make sure it is in tip top shape. No matter what it is
that makes your heart feel warm and fuzzy, this is the perfect month to be
unexpectedly tender and spontaneously loving to both yourself and others.
Be happy! Be Beautiful! Be Thrifty!
Love and Trust,

Sixth Cents - Lace
That demure detail of old is back in a big way for Spring. Start searching your
consignment shops, thrift stores and sale racks for lace pieces that can be
worn in a new modern way.
Avoid layering lace tops with lace bottoms. Choose one lace item and modernize
it with denim, fitted tops, cool shoes and accessories. Lace also makes a sexy
statement on Valentine's Day!

This Month's Cents Of
Style®
Accessory Suite
ODE TO JACKIE
 This month's Cents of
StyleŽ Accessory Suite was inspired by the belief that we all need basics in
our wardrobe that we can build on... Classic pieces that never go out of style
or feel trendy, but that are always appropriate, sharp and sophisticated. Once
you have these great standbys, you can then be more adventurous in your
selections, but everybody needs the basics. So I thought I would design a suite
that reflected the sophisticated styling of the one and only Jackie O.... after
all, my grandmother loved her style, my mom loved her style and I loved her
style... talk about timeless!
In this month's Cents of StyleŽ Accessory Suite,
Ode to Jackie, you will
find a gorgeous (can't believe I got it at that price) black faux ostrich
Birkin style handbag, a beautiful 60" strand of 8mm individually knotted pearls
with matching stud earrings, a fabulous Pucci inspired scarf and an oh-so
glamorous pair of large plastic Jackie O. sunglasses! This Accessory Suite is a
must have for everyone... and as always, just $49.50 for the whole kit and
caboodle!
Tips
For a more natural looking youthful blush, try applying the color to your
cheeks right after your foundation and before you set your face with powder.
Whether you prefer a powder blush, cream blush or a stain, always gently blend
up and out. By applying blush before your powder, you will create a more
natural glow that makes you look as if you are blushing from within!!
 Have You Tried...
Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer Tinted Moisturizer?
I saw an ad for this and immediately knew I had to try it. Neutrogena Healthy
Skin Enhancer combines a vitamin-infused Retinol treatment to smooth fine
lines, the protection of SPF 20 moisturizer, and sheer, lightweight oil-free
tint in a single application. That means you are getting wrinkle fighters, sun
protection and sheer foundation all in one bottle.
I love this stuff. I have been wearing it for a couple of weeks and I've found
that it gives a nice light moisturizing coverage that works great with powder
or without. It goes on very silky and offers a dewy finish that doesn't look
oily. I will advise you to select a shade lighter than you expect; I had to
return/exchange my first bottle because the shade was darker than anticipated.
