10 Fabulous Pink Gift Ideas

Today my lovely friend Nascar Camping World Truck Series and Nascar Nationwide Series driver, Jennifer Jo Cobb is making history at the final race of the season at Homestead Speedway in Miami.

Jennifer is the only full time female driver in any of the top three Nascar series, and today becomes the highest ranked female driver of all time in Nascar. On top of that she is the first driver in Nascar to bring a makeup sponsor to the sport.
Jennifer's primary sponsor today is LillysCosmetics.com. She will be driving a pink Lillys Cosmetics Ford F150, and wearing a pink Lillys cosmetics firesuit.

All week I've been posting the Jennifer Jo Cobb makeup looks that you can duplicate with products from LillysCosmetics.com.
Today I'm celebrating Jennifer's huge achievement with 10 pink gift giving ideas for the holiday season. (Jennifer's truck is the #10)

1.) Limited Edition Clarisonic Mia Hope

I swear by my Clarisonic! 

With every purchase of the Limited Edition  Clarisonic Mia Hope Clarisonic will make a donation to help women with cancer to look and feel like themselves again.

2.) A girl needs to smell fabulous too! Enjoy the naughtiness of Agent Provocateur on your wrists, throat, and all your other kissable places.

3.) Celebrate your gorgeous derriere with fun pink undies from Kiki de Montparnasse.
A bow here, a wiggle there - what more could a girl ask for?

4.) Pink diamond earrings. Fabulous!

5.) A pink ceramic watch from Michael Kors. Completely lovely.

6.) The Pink Room Candles. I found these on one of my favorite blogs, Flat Out Fabulous

7.) A cerise or rose pink pashmina. A beautiful accessory as well as the perfect throw to take with you when traveling. Real pashmina is both lightweight and warm, and ideal for air travel.

8.) Pink Frette Sheets.
I don't actually know anyone with pink Frette sheets, but the thought of them is just delicious!

9.) Juicy Couture Bath Caviar. A Juicy Girl needs a little luxury, so why not add some coral extracts of youth and vitality to your bath of glory?

10.) What better celebration of the pure pinkness of it all than a Pink CD? Every girl needs her Funhouse!

Prior work commitments meant I couldn't be in Miami with Jen and the crew to celebrate today, but I will make it home in time to watch her race tonight, so I will be there in spirit! And keeping with today's pink theme I'll be drinking one of these:

 

The perfect (pink) Cosmopolitan!

Good luck Jen!

Hey Santa Baby!

Dear Santa
It's me, Corinna.
I've been such a good, good girl
Achingly good in fact
Good til it almost hurt

I've made a list of things I'd like
for you to bring me
Because I deserve them

Alicia Keys new album drops 10 days before you get here
I'll already have it
But bring another just in case

This David Yurman ring will make me feel like Kate
Wild and free

Mr Louboutin said you have his number
I told him you'd get me this shoe in black
It sparkles when I dance in it.
Mesmerizing.

I put this one in to give you a yuletide giggle.
It looks like its wearing a merkin.
We'll call it the "M" shoe
It'll be our little secret
Yours and mine
And you will know what I mean.
(I don't really want this shoe Santa...)

But this one I'd die for.
Jimmy Choo "Glenys" in silver
I pined for it in green python
But I didn't succumb

Santa, this shoe is everything. Everything.

If you bring it to me
Stop by Agent Provocateur on the way


Choose either of these masks

Will is already looking for a sexy dark wig for me
We need it for a shoot
But I will have it on when you get here

I will do my makeup like this
Beautiful K.K

I'll slip on the Jimmy's and a mask
and I will dance for you
Santa
To this beautiful song

This is not the end of my list Santa
I will be back
with more
xo

Bringing Me Joy In November

Do you ever just stop and think about what brings you true joy?
What makes you smile, warms your heart or just makes you feel really, really good when you look at it?

I decided to invite you to my November, with a few things that truly bring me joy this month...

Starbucks Non Fat Cinnamon Dolce Latte.
Welcome back!
I love you in November...

Rhonda Allison Grape Seed Oil.
Every night I use this to keep my skin divinely hydrated.
The fountain of youth in a pump pack bottle.
Can't live without it!

My new Drag Strip Girl hoodie will be with me at every shoot.
I so love their clothes - cool designer cuts plus I love the logo. Even if you're not a race fan, their shirts and hoodies are edgy and cool.
There's only a limited number of these hoodies, so get in quick! www.DragStripGirlDesigns.com

I am obsessed with Julie Hewett Lip Lush in Tish.
Worn alone, over Bibo (pictured) or over any other lip color it gives the perfect golden sheen.
Golden lip gloss? Endless hours of happiness!

November sunsets over my lake are so beautiful! They fly by me too quickly. They begin by turning the palm trees gold and green

They wait a mere moment...

then plunge the mountains into a crazy cool, fabulous purple that I wish I could breathe in...
And then it's night.

Chris Cornell's acoustic cover of Led Zeppelin's Thank You.
I am playing it over and over.
And I give thanks.

Red things bring me November joy.
A handbag of red roses...

Soulful deep red candles burn throughout my home.
Tubereuse, such a deliciously deep, heady, sensual scent

All I want for Christmas, ALL I want, is this cat mask from Agent Provocateur.
What a life I could lead in that mask...

OK, so I want the boots too. I want them so bad it hurts!
And I don't want to wait for Christmas.
I want them in November...




And there are a million joyful secrets in my soul
for which
this lovely November
I give thanks


XO

Gentlemen, start your engines!

One of my favorite temptations in Las Vegas is the divine emporium of naughtiness, Agent Provocateur.

For the uninitiated, this is not quite (well hopefully not quite) your mother's bra shop. In fact, I would describe it as a luxury lingerie store with a big, heaping spoonful of wicked sprinkled on top!

Agent P is a British import, and has locations nationwide, but not in Phoenix, so I meander on down there when in Sin City. Their clever, drop dead sexy merchandise has been immortalized in print ads featuring Kate Moss. Their fare is titillating yet tasteful, not Fredericks and not Trashy L.

Their window displays are frequently hilarious




The dressing rooms are boudoir style with lace walls, and softly lit, so we all look fabulous and feel comfortable.

I walked into Agent this trip and was greeted by the store mannequin wearing a leopard print cat mask, a corset and a knowing smile. All of which would have been a great sales tool if her plastic eyes hadn't been all wonky, making her look like a cross between a rabid feline and a homicidal maniac. No matter where I was in the store I could feel her demented stare burning holes in my back.
However, she did get me thinking about corsets. And the corsets they are showing this season are beautiful. Black corsets, pink corsets, beige corsets. Something for everyone from sexy to feminine to super cool. Some were wicked and to be hidden under your clothes (or not!), some to be worn with a great pair of jeans and some cracking high heels.
They had a fabulous see through trench coat too, and were showing it with the bathrobes and peignoirs.

I love that the staff are so fun and friendly. I watched them helping men select pieces of perfection for their girlfriends, and put them completely at ease while discussing the naughty stuff. You've gotta admire a fellow who finds his way to buy sexy undies for his girl at Agent P instead of the Hustler store!

Every girl should know that its really rather empowering wearing fine lingerie, no matter where you're going or what you're doing.
If you're in Las Vegas, make sure you go check out Agent Provocateur at the Forum Shops at Ceasar's Palace, and maybe pick yourself up a little piece of fabulicious....
