Too Much Girl Talk?

Girl Talk: No-Slip Strapless Bras
2008-05-08 20:45:00 With the warm weather comes fun, flirty wardrobe options. Spare tanks; sporty tube tops; sultry strapless dresses. The options are fabulous, but the mechanics can get a little tricky. For all but the most boyish figures, these fashion choices require sporting the dreaded strapless bra. Few underpinnings inspire negative feelings like the strapless bra. Strapless bras slip, or bind, or twist. I

Girl Talk Reviews: Dreaming Tommy Hilfiger Fragrance
2008-03-24 15:38:00 Dreaming Tommy Hilfiger 1.7oz.$45.00Available at: boscovs.comIt seems like there is a new fragrance hitting the shelves every other week. Trying to figure out which new scents are actually worth the effort of a test run could practically be a full-time job. Who has time for that? Well, we can't try every fragrance for you, but you can cross one new scent off of your pre-investigation list. We turned three members of the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk Panel loose with the brand new Dreaming Tommy Hilfiger fragrance and scented lotion, and asked them to come back a week later with their honest opinion of this new scent. The new Dreaming Tommy Hilfiger is a feminine scent featuring notes of Peach, Freesia, Tuberose, White Hibiscus, White Woods, and Orris (which is derived from the Iris plant). So ladies, was Dreaming all that you-- um-- dreamed it would be?"I love this new scent," says 34-year-old Tina, a San Diego-based attorney. "It has some nice florals without being sweet and without t...

Even if you haven't yet experienced it for yourself, you know its true. I bet you've even seen it in action. Maybe on the pages of Allure? Or perhaps on What Not To Wear? Carmindy is famous for her WNTW brow makeovers. So, have you become a master of your own brows?Eager to see what a few real world women think about the prospect of brow grooming and enhancement, I asked the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel to spill their daily brow enhancement routine. From minimalist, to maximum impact, here's how they get their brows on."I absolutely love filling in my brows. I used to think it was a pain, but then I learned how to do it from a friend-- now I'm hooked," starts 24-year-old Kim M., a resident of Del Mar, California. "Ever since I dyed my hair dark brown from blonde, I realized the difference a little brow filling can do. T...
Girl Talk How-To: Eliminate VPL
2008-03-05 17:07:00 Commandos Multi-Pack$10.00Available at: gocommandos.comPop quiz: what's the quickest way to ruin a fabulous look? I nominate the dreaded VPL. Yes, visible panty line has sent many a look plummeting head long into disaster-ville. And, just when you think you have VPL conquered, here comes the thong line. You know, that tell-tale ridge that runs from mid-butt to lower hip, letting the world know you are sporting a thong. What's a girl to do?In an effort to eliminate VPL once and for all, I called upon the intrepid fashionistas of the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel to dish their secrets for banishing visible panty line.

Girl Talk: Dirty Hair - Do or Don't?
2008-02-27 16:52:00 Is Dirty Hair Trendy?As much as Stiletto Jungle is tuned in to the more practical facets of the world of shopping and style, I do keep a watchful eye on emerging trends-- no matter how far they seem to fall outside of the mainstream. Today's odd blip of the fashion radar can become tomorrow's must-have style in the blink of an eye. It's best to be prepared.While indulging in my daily read of the always cutting-edge New York Times Style section last Friday I came across a rather astonishing new beauty "trend"-- it seems that regular shampooing is on its way out. Really? What ever happened to the days of lather-rinse-repeat? Remember when sudsing up just once per shower-- skipping the "repeat"-- was rebellious? I was deep in my disbelief when I stopped to examine my own recent dirty hair habits. Could it be that I was taking part in this new trend without even realizing it?First, I stopped shampooing the day after blowing out my hair. The process was just too painful to repeat ever...

With lives populated by piles of goodies, the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panelists are always on the lookout for stylish ways to keep their big girl toys in tip top shape. When they were offered the chance to review Vibe Vault, a new line of nearly indestructible iPod cases that still manage to keep all of the buttons and dials available for use, the Girl Talk panel jumped on it!

Girl Talk Reviews: Venus Clothing & Swimwear
2007-12-20 16:54:00 Venus Clothing & SwimwearSure, we wax poetic about $1000 handbags and $400 shoes, but Stiletto Jungle girls love finding fab fashions at reasonable prices just as much as the next person. I'm always on the lookout for a new source of stylish, yet affordable, clothes. But, when well-known swimwear purveyor Venus approached me with news of their newest line of clothing, I was actually kind of perplexed. I've known about Venus swimsuits for a while, but never knew they did clothes as well. I couldn't help but wonder, what kind of clothing could a company known for swimwear really turn out? Perhaps sensing my disbelief, the people behind Venus's newest line of clothing offered to let our Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel give their goods a test drive. Armed with nothing more than the address for the Venus online store, the Girl Talk panel set out to shop, select, and try out Venus clothing. The results?Babydoll Print Top$29.00 (was $39-- save 26%!)Available at: venus.com"I feel th...
Girl Talk Reviews: Sun Sauce Moisturizers
2007-12-19 16:49:00 Ahh, there's nothing like winter weather to get you feeling all scaly and dry. Add a love of tanning-- whether it be traditional, bed, or sunless-- to the mix and you are just asking for nasty, flaky skin. Every woman I know is searching for the next big thing in moisturizers right now, and ladies who love to tan are searching at a double frantic pace. When I heard about Sun Sauce-- the latest venture from the same super popular tanning lotion maker responsible for Hoss Sauce, Rebel Sun, and Outlaw Tanning-- I was instantly interested.Sun Sauce makes three lines of products: Skin Care, Sunless Tanning, and Tanning. All Sun Sauce products are infused with a proprietary blend of Monoi Oil and Kukui Nut Oil, plus moisturizing Shea Butter, Sweet Almond Oil and Jojoba Oil and soothing Aloe Vera, Tea Tree Oil, and Hemp Seed Oil. The goal? Deep moisture replenishing, no matter if you are a tanner, a sunless tanner, or au natural. Ready to put Sun Sauce to the test, I dished out samples of...
Girl Talk Reviews: Pro Silk Hair Care
2007-12-14 16:55:00 Pro Silk Hair CareIs it just me, or is every woman in a constant struggle for better hair? With so many hair care products to choose from, a woman could try a different product every day for the rest of her life and still not hit on the right combination of cleansing, conditioning, treating, and styling to make her hair just right. Top that off with the crazy prices some hair care lines are charging-- I spent almost $50 on a tiny tub of conditioner yesterday!-- the whole process is too much to bear. I take every chance I get to ask other women what they use on their tresses, and every chance to have the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panelists test drive new hair care products and share their thoughts with all of you.Up this week, the Pro Silk hair care line. I turned Pearl, Kim, and Tina loose with Pro Silk shampoo, conditioner, serum, and straightening combs and asked them to come back with the details of their Pro Silk test drive."The Pro Silk products were pretty decent," starts Pear...

Girl Talk Reviews: Bond No. 9 Andy Warhol Silver Factory
2007-12-11 16:46:00 Bond No. 9Andy Warhol Silver Factory$230.00Available at: saks.comTis the season for life's little luxuries. No better time for super upscale New York perfumerie Bond No. 9 to release their latest fragrance. December 1 marked the debut of Andy Warhol Silver Factory, the first in what will be a series of partnerships between Bond No. 9 and the Andy Warhol Foundation.Silver Factory is a scent that is not for the flower lovers among you. The scent is a blend of "incense, wood resin and syrupy seductive amber with a heart of jasmine, iris and violet and a handful of cedarwood." I think it sounds delicious. For the Pop Art lovers, the iconic bottle is inspired by Warhol's Campbell Soup Can silkscreen painting of 1965. Are you loving it already? I am. But, I wanted to call in a few second opinions. I distributed samples of this posh new perfume to the members of the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel and sent them on their way. "This was my absolute favorite and I will be wearing it my next...
Girl Talk Reviews: My Hip-T Creates Bulk-Free Layers
2007-11-29 16:30:00 Beauty and accessory gadgets I've done, but fashion gadgets? When I heard about My Hip-T, a new fashion gadget designed to both create layers without bulk and eliminate peekaboo panties when pairing tees with low-rise pants, I was intrigued. This could be interesting. A brand new category of apparel designed to solve a real problem, but with style. There really was only one thing to do. I turned to the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel to get their opinion of this hot new fashion gadget. Michelle, Pearl, and Jennifer each gave My Hip-T the full day test.

I'll be the first to say that some of the products we see do not meet our high standards, and when I first heard about Aliza Darik Shoe Clips I was pretty sure they would be one of those products we pass on. When I think shoe clips, I picture those truly fug creations that kids and grandmas wore in the '80s. You know what I'm talking about: polyester satin rosettes and such. Boy, did I have Aliza Darik wrong!Aliza Darik makes what can only be characterized as couture shoe clips. Seriously gorgeous. Like jewels for your shoes.

We cover it all: from conditioner to foot scrub, lip gloss to mascara, and everything in between. We've easily name dropped a hundred different beauty labels... or more. With so much beautiful water under the bridge, it was time to ask the big question. Of all the beauty labels you use, what's your number one favorite?MAC Lustreglass$14.00Available at: Nordstrom.comGiven the range of beauty brands the Girl Talk ladies have dished about, I was expecting a different fave label from each of the girls. Boy was I wrong!

Sure, you got it 40% off because you read Stiletto Jungle every day (hint, hint), but it still cost the better part of your entire monthly clothing budget. You are ready for your cold cocktail and free nachos. One problem: where do you put your purse?Your options are limited. Do you carry it with you, slung over your shoulder for the next three hours?

Girl Talk Reviews: Frutels Skincare Vitamins
2007-10-18 05:53:00 Frutels Gummy Vitamins$24.95Available at: frutels.comI am a firm believer that the single best thing we can do for our outside is to take really good care of our insides. In my case, my obsessive whole-grain-flax-seed-fresh-fru-it-antioxident infested diet pretty much drives my entire family and most of my friends completely crazy. What can I say, I'm addicted to healthfulness.Needless to say, when I heard about a new gummy vitamin designed to nourish our insides in order to combat acne and skin blemishes on the outside, I was ready to jump on the bandwagon. The recipe for better skin in a jiffy includes a range of vitamins from C to zinc-- literally-- and nutrients such as inositol and choline. Let's be real, I'm neither doctor nor nutritionist, so I can't comment on the ingredients. The only real question left for me? Would the gummies really deliver on their promise of better skin in just two weeks? I put the test out to the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel: if you are plagued ...

It's no wonder my mind has been on preparing for the inevitable winter ahead.Bonacure Mositure Conditioner$15.00Available at: CosmeticMall.comOver the past couple of weeks we've covered two of the most important cold weather skincare obstacles: relief for painfully chapped lips and moisture for itchy, dry skin.

In this circular set-up, the window of one room opens right up upon that of another room. There is a group of loud female American students who are studying abroad in Morocco staying in the rooms near mine. They are loud, but they are having a good time, so I cannot blame them. They are on study abroad sabbatical and are having the time of their lives . . .At night the loud American girls next to my room make girl talk really loudly. I cannot escape listening, no matter how hard I try. They are loud, and it is as if they are yelling right into my room (they are). I have always wondered what girl talk consists of, and last night I was force fed a lesson. The very loud girl from Milwaukee began orating a very loud descriptio...
Girl Talk: Body Moisturizers for Summer to Fall
2007-10-03 16:11:00 There's nothing like the changing of the seasons to remind you to take better care of your skin. During the balmy days of summer it's easy to forget how fragile our skin really is. But, sure enough, as soon as the first chill of fall comes around we remember in a hurry that we really should be pampering our precious epidermis. It's that first dry, scaly itch that clues us in to the fact that it's time to break out the super moisturizer.Philosophy Amazing Grace$34.00Available at: Nordstrom.comTruthfully, I'm still using my "summer" moisturizer. But, I know that it's nearly time to switch over to a heavy duty cream. The question is which cream to try out first. In an effort to get some skin pampering inspiration I called in the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel to share their favorite lotions and potions for keeping their skin soft and happy during the colder months.

Girl Talk Reviews: Bosom Buttons Combat Wardrobe Malfunctions
2007-09-27 04:07:00 I'm a sucker for a cute new fashion product. When I saw the Bosom Button on the site of fellow blogette StyleBakery I fell in love. These adorable "buttons," which are really pretty little Swarovski crystals perched on pins, are designed as a fashionable way to keep low cut shirts and gaping button-down blouses from getting out of hand. If I had a bosom that in any way required assistance staying lodged within my shirt I'd snap up a Bosom Button in a hurry.Bosom Button$12.00Available at: Amazon.comSadly, my chest fits just fine in XS tops of all types. But, I still adore the idea behind Bosom Button. Determined to give the Bosom Button a try anyway, at least vicariously, I handed out Bosom Buttons to the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel's resident "va-va-voom" girls to see what they thought about my fashion find."How did you know that I was just wrestling with my uber cute silk wrap top this weekend?" asks Pearl, a 29-year-old LA-based music industry maven.

2007-09-19 16:07:00 The funny thing about the weather here in the San Francisco bay area is that just when it really starts to feel like summer, it's fall. I'm not even kidding. It finally got up to the 80s a few weeks ago. We're expecting our first big rain storm tomorrow. So much for summer. Truthfully, I don't need a rainstorm to tell me that the seasons are changing. My body knows that the air is getting colder and drier. I can feel it in my lips.Kiehl's Lip Balm #1$5.50Available at: Nordstrom.comWithout fail, the minute the weather changes for the colder my lips become a flaky, nasty, sore, chapped mess. Ugh. I need some serious lip therapy. I know you feel me on this. Faced with the reality that winter is mere months away, I called in reinforcements to assess the lip balm preparedness situation. What balms are best for keeping your lips soft and supple all winter long? I asked the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel to weigh in on the issue. So ladies, what say you?"Now this is an easy one... th...

Girl Talk Reviews: Listerine Whitening Quick Dissolving Strips
2007-09-05 15:52:00 We spend a lot of time talking about beauty must-haves here at Stiletto Jungle. Sure, there are some beauty items that we don't think we could live without, but for all of our talk about beauty we often take one of the most important beauty accessories for granted. Gleaming white teeth.Listerine WhiteningQuick Dissolving Strips$24.99 (was $26.99-- save 7%!)Available at: Drugstore.comNothing says beauty and health quite like fresh, white chompers. Thankfully there are a lot of do-it-yourself teeth whitening products around to lend a girl a hand. Unfortunately, they are often messy, hard to use, and disgusting tasting. When the Listerine company introduced their new Whitening Quick Dissolving Strips they made some pretty big promises. These new strips not only taste fresh and are easy to use, they actually dissolve when they are done working, just like Listerine Breath Strips dissolve on your tongue. Sounds great, but would they really work? I turned over full-size boxes of Listerine...
Girl Talk Reviews: Bond No. 9 Saks Fifth Avenue for Him
2007-09-03 06:41:00 We tend to get a little obsessed with fragrance here at Stiletto Jungle. Some are in a deeply committed relationship with their signature scent; others are always on the lookout for the next best thing. Any way you slice it, feelings run deep.When our super committed Girl Talk Panel took on the task of reviewing the brand new Saks Fifth Avenue for Her scent from famed New York fragrance house Bond No. 9 they didn't stop at sniffing their own wrist. Nope, the Stiletto Jungle girls also vowed to take a sample of the new Saks Fifth Avenue for Him and find a willing male guinea pig to test it out. One Girl Talker, Pearl, even took a Saks for Him sample on a 3000-mile, cross-country plane trip to test it out on an East Coast friend. That's dedication... all in the name of shopping journalism! So Pearl, was the mileage worth it?Bond No. 9 Saks Fifth Avenue$125.00 - $185.00Available at: SaksFifthAvenue.com"The men's cologne was amazing. I really liked it," offers Pearl, a 29-year-old LA...
Girl Talk Reviews: Bond No. 9 Saks Fifth Avenue for Her
2007-08-30 16:11:00 Bond No. 9 is the perfume of New York, known for its super upscale neighborhood-inspired scents. Saks Fifth Avenue is the heart of New York style, located smack in the middle of iconic 5th Avenue. So, what happens when the two collide? The first time ever that a specialty store has commissioned a perfumery to design a scent, that's what.This Saturday, September 1, marks the launch of Bond No. 9 Saks Fifth Avenue for Her. According to Bond No. 9, "Saks Fifth Avenue for Her signals the return of the classic gardenia eau de parfum, given a chic contemporary twist with the addition of sparkling jasmine and vetiver, along with smooth vanilla. This all-white bouquet captures the fashion-forward essence of 21st century Saks, while at the same time expressing the eclectic downtown spirit of NoHo-based Bond No. 9." Sounds heavenly, right?Bond No. 9 Saks Fifth Avenue$125.00 - $185.00Available at: SaksFifthAvenue.comHere at Stiletto Jungle, we were excited enough just to hear about this hot n...

I have a sneaking suspicion that many of you out there know exactly what I'm talking about. There's nothing quite like the look of hungover skin in the morning.

But, the older I get, the more rabbits I have to pull out of a hat to repair what that fourth martini hath wrought. In search of new tricks before Labor Day festivities kick in, I called upon the Stiletto Jungle Girl Talk panel to confess how they rescue their hungover skin. So, ladies, how do you fake the happy, healthy, wide awake look the morning af...
Girl Talk
2007-08-14 07:53:00 I love girl talk. I can say what I want and not be judged. Like tonight’s conversation: Jill says: Now you can have that brain surgery! Jess says: Finally!!!! Wait… Brain or boob? Jess says: You know, I’m only wanting one boob job. Jill says: You only want one boob done? Jess says: Yeah, I think that’ll make it easier on the men… They won’t have to choose a favorite. See, when I have girl talk, I can figure out a way to make life easier on men. One boob! How much simpler can I make it?

Girl Talk: Put Your Best Bra Forward - Part 1
2007-07-31 16:02:00 This is part 1 of a 2-part Special Girl Talk series focusing on the best bras. Part two will run on Thursday, August 2.There are few universal truths in the world of fashion; one woman's obsession is another woman's "eh, whatever." Of the few truths that seem to survive across the spectrum of women, the eternal search for a better bra is right up there. No matter how much a woman loves her current fave bra, she's always convinced that there must be a better one available. Something that will fit just a little better, make her just a little more perky, give her just a few more curves.
