You had to get up, go to work, deal with crazy people all day long, come home and watch the horror that they report on the evening news, go to bed and sleep for not nearly long enough, and then to top it all off, you had to wake up repeatedly and do it all over again!
Oh my darling super women, how ever do you manage??
How in the world does society expect us to maintain our fab while living under such harsh conditions?
I mean, let's be honest. If you're like most of the world, you don't subject yourself to all of that occupational torture because you feel like it. You do it because you have bills to pay, and if you spend like I spend, then you've got BIG bills to pay.
Going to work affords you the luxury of earning an income that you can then have the privilege of handing over to someone else.
Working women of the world, how did we become so lucky?!?
Now before you order yet another make-it-all-disappear-margarita, I want you to know that I have great news for you!
The Singles' Salon hereby declares that you have the right to take some of your hard earned income and spend it on....
Wait for it....
YOU!!!!
Today, we want you to spoil yourself by purchasing something a little out of the ordinary (and in some cases, a little outside of your budget!).
We've searched high and low to find the perfect splurge for you, and I think you'll be quite thrilled with what we've come up with.
Now as many of you know, the fashion bible that is the annual Vogue September issue weighs no less than the phone book of a major metropolitan city. This year the fashion gods gave us 726 pages of singlelista style inspiration, which while uber-exciting, can also be a bit daunting for the modern woman.
Between working, volunteering, pet mommying, child raising, love life maintaining, girlfriends gossiping, and all other fab -ings that occupy our lives, when do we have time to sit down and absorb 726 pages of unbridled fierceness?
Well after three weeks of incremental Vogue page turning, I am proud to announce that I've successfully matriculated from the first cover to the back cover, and am now all the more fashionably astute! It was quite the experience, I must admit, but the most exciting part came somewhere around page 397.
As I was making my way through the optical indulgence upon which my eyes were feasting, I began to sense a subtle treat for my olfactory system as well.
Hmm...what could that deliciousness possibly be?!?
I turned the page.
The scent grew stronger, more inviting.
I sniffed.
It was intoxicating, truly.
I HAD to know its origin.
I sniffed.
I turned the page and like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, there it was, summoning me.
This fragrance, so provocative, so alluring, so tempting, was none other than...
GUCCI GUILTY
"The New Fragrance For Her"
the ad read.
I knew instantly that what they meant to write was
"The New Fragrance For Me."
Being the tech savvy singlelista that I am, I diverted my attention immediately (albeit briefly) from my Vogue to my laptop and got my Google on.
I discovered that GUILTY is the new fall fragrance by Gucci, which launched at the top of this month (thanks September!) and is comprised of notes of mandarin, pink pepper, peach, lilac, geranium, amber and patchouli.
*Bliss*
Now, we've discussed the pleasantries of pink pepper before, but never quite like this.
The website also stated that Guilty was "designed for the glamorous, daring, brave, and very sexy girls who like to party and enjoy themselves."
Sounds like it was made for singlelistas to me!
Then I saw this hard core trailer for the new fragrance and I thought, "Absolutely Yes!"

Now, I'll have to be honest with you, I considered not sharing the news of my new sinful pleasure because...well, I just wasn't that thrilled about having all you divas strutting around smelling like me. But after purchasing my own bottle and basking in all its delectable fabness, I realized that this really was too amazing not to share.
Ohh...the sacrifices I make for you loves! Sigh...
At $75 for the 1.7 oz and $95 for the 2.5 oz, it may be a bit of a splurge, but you're absolutely worth it!
So singlelistas, for all that you do for everybody else, I demand that today you do something for yourself that will leave you with not one single regret.
Get Guilty. Today!
Love life...every SINGLE moment of it!
