Make-Up artisit Jill Kloster is back, this time dialing us into what’s hot for nails this spring. Some unexpected colors (gray for spring?) and results (the face of Jesus on your thumb), read on to learn more. . .
From Jill:
Seriously. One new trend is Seashells on nails.
I think I can count on one dried out, thrashed, cuticle man-hand the number of manicures I’ve had since my wedding, and that was eight years ago. So when I learned that my newest assignment for Breezy Mama was to find out the latest trends in nails, it was on. On like Donkey Kong. Initially I learned that nails are like art, or an insult from your mother; very personal. From zebra stripes to Read More…
I’m a kill two birds with one stone kinda gal. If I can shop for my kids (or for gifts) AND give a little bit of love to a worthy cause, I’m in! After searching through countless kid’s clothing companies (size 3 months to 12 years) that donate a percentage of proceeds to a charity, I narrowed down my favs so your kids can be stylish while stylishly giving back.

You won’t want to let-go of your eggo when she’s dressed in the adorable dress in the photo at the top ($48). Or add a little vroom in your dude’s zoom with this comfy Roadster Tee ($28)
What gives? Founded by two moms (who are also sisters), they donate 20% of proceeds to partnering children’s charities (thru Read More…
Breezy Mama’s Queen of the Caboodle saved us all oodles of dollars in her first round of Drugstore Beauty and now she gives us the rest of her picks!
From Kelly:
As I reported last time about my quest to find great makeup in my local drugstores, I stumbled upon some other great beauty finds that I simply cannot do without now! All tried and true by yours truly, here are the other drugstore beauty items that are worth their weight in gold while only costing pennies: Read More…
I don’t know about you, but I’m always wondering what to wear when the family attends a birthday party–you want to look cute, but you need to be casual enough to (depending on the party) go down slides, jump in ball pits, dance around, etc. As a result, I always feel like I look too casual and sloppy. So for this month, I asked Vanessa to put together an outfit that could go to any children’s party–no matter where it was held. As always, Vanessa didn’t disappoint. . .
From Vanessa:
The look of chinos is great, especially when you have many “children related” activities going on. You want to look cute/nice, but maybe you want something different from the jeans look. This weekend wear outfit will take you to all those Read More…
Are drugstore shampoos and conditioners just as good as the salon brands? In Breezy Mama’s on-going quest to bring you the best products for the lowest prices, we turned to makeup artist Jill Kloster — who has worked in the entertainment industry from commercials like Target to reality shows like The Bachelor — to find out. Jill did extensive research of several shampoo types and gave each her final grade — with some falling flat! So, before you try out a less expensive brand, let Jill save you the money by reading on.
From Jill:
There is nothing better than the feel of your hair after you leave the hair salon. What is it? The water, the massage, the shampoo? My thoughts immediately gravitate towards the shampoo. At the reception desk, you ask what kind they used and nine times out of ten, the price is outrageous. My goal? To get that wonderful, soft, hair from Read More…
Whether you’re little in the middle, but you got much “back” or not, Breezy Mama recently got the low down on the best jean pockets for your butt type from The mun2 Look’s – a half hour series on fashion trends – celebrity stylist Jorge Ramon, plus more tips.
So here’s the skinny on jeans: Jorge says the pocket shouldn’t Read More…
I am the absolute worst about updating my underwear. Seriously, the sexiest thing I have are nighties from my bridal shower (which was ten years ago) and my set of Hanky Panky’s which are three years old and have been worn so many times that are practically falling off me. What’s a woman to do? Enlist some help–Breezy Mama tracked down Lauren Rich, of RICHPR, who represents several lingerie companies and hence, knows a thing or two about the subject. And now, I bring you Lauren. . .
The NEW New Year’s Resolution: I Promise to Lose the Granny Panties and Wear Sexy, Empowering Lingerie!

Instead of promising yet again to hit the gym or go on a grapefruit diet, how about setting one that will make you feel instantly sexy, confident and empowered – the whole year through? Resolve this year to lose the granny panties and wear sexy, empowering lingerie – and not just for Read More…
Sure, looking good is priceless, but looking good for less is even better! Breezy Mama’s Queen of the Caboodle Kelly put on her drugstore cowgirl hat to do her research for the best low cost picks, with only one item at $20 and the rest under $10 — yeeeehaw!
From Kelly:
A couple of months ago my purse was stolen. As one can imagine, I was upset. Then I realized not only was my purse stolen, but also my entire makeup bag. I was DEVASTATED! Being the beauty junkie that I am, I had accumulated $500-$700 of makeup in that bag. To replenish my treasured beauty amenities I had to take a measly $100 and scour the grocery and drugstores for makeup that would suffice until I am able to afford the items I once purchased at a makeup counter. I was pleasantly surprised to find many comparable items that performed as well if not better than my pricey makeup at a fraction of the price! Here are my new top faves: Read More…
Breezy Mama’s Go-To outfit whiz, Vanessa, is back with yet another adorable outfit for you. This one can carry you through the winter months–cute and sassy. For those of you with hot Valentine dates planned, it would be perfect. Vanessa says, “I wanted to do a sweater dress that wasn’t too “heavy” and I made the outfit from there…It’s a Macy’s run!”
Nine West Sweater Dress/Tunic
Warm (it’s wool, but soft!) and cozy, pretty, and a little sexy. Can be worn Read More…
To find functional workout wear that was cute, too, Breezy Mama turned to volleyball star, mother of two and exercise guru Gabby Reece.
From Gabby:
“I like LuLu Lemon. They make Read More…
