Morrissey of The Smiths once sang, "Stop me if you think you’ve heard this one before." Yes, darlings, I know you might be sick and tired of me rambling on about what’s hot on my beauty list, but I just can’t help being a certified beauty junkie. But deep inside, don’t you think we all are?
Don’t worry. It’s not too late to look absolutely fabulous like a
glamazon woman. So, here are some post-holiday glamour buys that will make you shine, sparkle and party on before going back to work…
