BellaSugar's Gift Guide: Bro Down

BellaSugar — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 15:05:40 PST

The good thing about holiday shopping for your brother is that you can give him the sort of grooming goodies that he might not buy on his own. For instance, while he might pick up Whitestrips at Target, you could treat him to a luxurious GoSmile whitening kit. Or if he's the furthest thing from a metrosexual, you could ease him into it with a beer-infused shampoo. Have a look through my brotherly-love picks, and don't miss my other holiday shopping suggestions, either!

FitSugar — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 03:00:00 PST

Since most of us are preparing to spend Thanksgiving with our families, I'm sure you're getting excited. I can't wait to see relatives I haven't seen in a while, and, of course, to eat all the yummy traditional dishes we've all grown to love.

You still have a few days until the holiday, and if you're feeling overly excited or stressed out, exercising always helps. Since you're probably already thinking about your relatives, check out this play list that includes songs about all the people in your family.

When It Comes to Family, Who Are You Closest to?

DearSugar — Thu, 01 Nov 2007 17:00:55 PDT

Of course, I love everyone in my family. Each person has a special place in my heart, and my mind is filled with so many memories of all of them. I love them for what they've taught me, how they've been there for me, and what we've shared together.

That being said, there's one person I call the most and tell my secrets to, and that's my mom. Yes, she's my mom, but now that I'm older, she's also turned into my best friend. I feel the closest to her because she's such an amazing listener and, as women, we have so much in common.

So I want to know: When it comes to your family, who do you feel closest to? Your mom, dad, child, or spouse? A step-parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, cousin, or sibling?

Reese Witherspoon and Matthew McConaughey Reconnect in Cannes

Katie Henry — Sat, 26 May 2012 08:57:53 PDT

Reese Witherspoon and Matthew McConaughey were all smiles posing side by side today at their Cannes photocall for Mud. During a press conference earlier today, Reese talked about her supporting role in Mud, saying, "I grew up with my brother in a creek, riding dirt bikes, dirt fishing, everything you see the boys in the movie doing. When I read Jeff's script, it felt like home. It's a beautiful story about the place I'm from." Reese and Matthew are expected at tonight's red-carpet premiere, but until then, you can catch up on all the hot photos you may have missed from Cannes!

9 Ways to Earn Extra Cash When Money Is Tight

Wise Bread — Thu, 24 May 2012 11:51:58 PDT

I'm sure everyone can do with a little more cash in their wallets. Here are some great suggestions by Wise Bread for you to make extra money.

Even though I'm self-employed full-time, I'm always looking for new and exciting ways to make more money.

Earlier this year, I wrote a Wise Bread post on websites that can help you earn extra cash. More recently, I came across a blog post on Zaarly titled, "10 Ways to Make Money Without a Job." After reviewing the latter post, I thought it was time to revisit the topic and let you in on a few more ways to get paid.

The ideas that Zaarly presents are perfect for the unemployed or those who just want to pad their pockets a little more. In addition, there are moonlighting jobs that I do that I thought you should know about. Thus, if you're without a steady paycheck or you just want to build up a rainy-day stash, here are some of your options.

1. Offer Experiences to Strangers

I recently learned about a new site called Vayable, which allows people with specialized knowledge and talents, local info, and time on their hands to create experiences that others can purchase. It's basically a touring and activity company without the company. Anyone can join the site and set up an experience. For instance, the Kan Brothers offer motorcycle tours of San Francisco - which include helmet rental, a drink at a local hot spot, and a city map - for two to four people at $75 per person. In New York City, Kim G. is offering a personalized painting lesson for groups of two to six for a flat rate of $300; the experience includes acrylic paints; canvas board and supplies; studio space; wine, cheese, and crackers; and Kim’s undivided attention. Consider this tip if you're interested in joining Vayable: Browse the site to see what other people in your area are offering. By creating a unique experience that no one else has established, you have a better chance of getting booked.

Eva Longoria and Eduardo Cruz Take Their Love on the Go

Michelle Manning — Thu, 24 May 2012 11:00:35 PDT

Things appear to be going smoothly for on-again couple Eva Longoria and Eduardo Cruz, who were spotted catching a train together in Spain earlier today. The pair were all smiles and laughing while rolling their luggage through the depot. They're fresh off a stop in Cannes, where Eva was on hand to check out this year's film festival and chat with press as one of L'Oréal's brand ambassadors.

Eva and Eduardo are among the jet-setting celebrities who love to travel during the Summer. The pair visited his friends and family in Spain last year and even hung out with his sister Penelope, brother-in-law Javier Bardem, and nephew Leo. The end of Desperate Housewives gives Eva a break in her schedule, but she'll be back in the States soon enough to continue raising awareness for the upcoming presidential election.
