I just had to share this fashion forward and affordable home decor collection I discovered while doing some serious late night channel surfing. Can you believe these pieces come to you courtesy of the home shopping network, QVC? That’s all. Carry on.

That’s All. Carry On.
Thursday, December 30th, 2010Remember, Your Eyebrows are Sisters NOT Twins
Wednesday, October 28th, 2009I’m obsessed with QVC. Obsessed. In fact, I’m watching it as I write. The home shopping network is hocking computers and accessories this half hour. Just in case you need an HP 17″ Notebook computer with 4GB RAM, it can be all yours for 5 easy payments of $199.80. Just type in product number E-165168 when you call 1-800-345-1515 and tell them Tasha sent you. It doesn’t matter which telephone operator answers, they’ll know who I am. You don’t even have to give them my last name.
I have to admit, I’ve never purchased a computer from QVC . My husband is such a square about buying technology off TV. Blah, blah, blah is about all I hear when he drones on and on about customer service, warranty, and reliability. What I have bought a lot of: jewlery, handbags, and cosmetics.
Smashbox is my favorite collection of cosmetics and watching artist Holly Mordini on QVC over, and over, and over again has taught me all I need to know about make-up and how to apply it. The tall blonde is even the author of one of my favorite pieces of advice.
“Remember, your eyebrows are sisters not twins.” – Holly Mordini, Smashbox Cosmetics
I just wish I would have remembered that little nugget while grooming the frames of my face this weekend. I brushed my brows up toward my hairline just as Holly instructs and proceeded to give them a tiny trim. They needed it. I mean, the crazy old man eyebrow look is just not for me.
I trimmed my left brow and then my right. But it just didn’t look as good as my left, so I trimmed a little more, and a little more, and a little more. I trimmed so much before I knew it, I cut out a HUGE hole in the middle of my eyebrow. I HAVE A HUGE HOLE IN THE MIDDLE OF MY EYEBROW!!!
Since Holly has taught me how to be an expert in the technique of penciling in my eyebrows, I thought no one would notice. I thought wrong.
Husband: “You have a hole in your eyebrow.”
Me: “I KNOW I HAVE A HOLE IN MY EYEBROW. YOU CAN SEE IT?!?”
Husband: “Yes, I can see it. You have a huge hole in the middle of your eyebrow.”
Me: “WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME YOU COULD SEE IT?!?”
Him: “I just did.”
I wonder if QVC sells pride.
Jewelry Junkie
Tuesday, May 12th, 2009I’m a jewelry junkie. I have been ever since I can remember. I began begging for beautiful baubles at an early age. My parents knew the formula for success: birthday + little bitty box = happy daughter.
I’m even happier now that I can purchase pieces for myself every now and then and there are some great, affordable collections out there right now.
These pretty earring are from Banana Republic. The green and white color combination is perfect for the spring and summer months. The three tier drops set in brass only cost $34.
I’m also really loving the bib style of necklace a lot of stores are carrying right now. This one is from JCrew. The jeweled palm leaf piece is certainly a statement. To be honest, I haven’t even tried one on yet, but I will. I think it is so pretty. The resin creation costs $175.

QVC is also a great place to check out great designer jewelry. The turquoise starfish pin by Kenneth Jay Lane looks so expensive and only costs $75. Love it!
