Julie's Journal
Good girls have diaries... Bad girls have blogs!If you’re a regular reader of my blog you’ve seen the Red Chair Confessions videos that I have been posting. If not, you can see them at Red Chair Confessions Mystery and More Red Chair Confessions. I was fairly certain that it was about a new fashion website, but I had never thought in a million years that it was for Talbots!
Talbot’s has been around since 1947, and I always thought they carried old lady clothes, but after looking more at the site today I see that they are not old lady clothes at all. Or maybe I’m just getting old. Okay, never mind that. Talbot’s fashions are hip and trendy and you really need to check them out! I’m digging on this Emblem ruffled silk blouse!
Now is a great time to check out Talbot’s because I’m giving away a $100 Gift Card to Talbot’s to one lucky reader!

Hey guys have you noticed my new Beauty Tip of the Day widget over there on my sidebar? ———>
It is designed to give you daily beauty tips from some of your favorite Unilever brands such as Vaseline, Q-tips, Pond’s and Dove. Did you know that if you put a small amount of Vaseline on your eyelashes everyday it will darken the tips? I didn’t, and I’m going to start making it a part of my nightly routine before going to bed.
You’ll also find coupons to try all these products by clicking on the product bonus link. Have fun, and let me know your beauty tips!
I wrote about the Red Chair Confessions awhile back (click here if you missed it) and I’ve been keeping up with all the videos, but I still don’t have a clue what they are about. Well I take that back. The first time I watched it I thought it was about a new online clothing or shoe store, and now I’m fairly certain that it is. Her last video showed her at the therapist office and her doctor was writing down the words “necklace” and “bag.”
Her most recent video is filmed in a closet filled with clothes, but it’s cute at the end when you hear the little boy go, “Mom? Mom? I’m home.”
I guess it could be about anything at this point though, but their mission statement on their Facebook page is rather odd. “A place to expose, fess up, divulge, spill the beans, reveal, atone, come clean, or maybe… just watch.” Hmmmm, maybe it’s just going to be a site where you can tell your deepest darkest secrets, and then have them posted on the internet! LOL! What do you think it is?
Stay tuned next week and we’ll see if she finally reveals her big secret.
Forgive me Father for I have sinned. Well not me personally, but the girl in this video has. I’m not sure what this video is all about, but I was intrigued enough to post it so I can hear your thoughts also.
The video is from Red Chair Confessions and they are asking you to come back in a week to see what the big secret is. Obviously they are putting a sexual spin on it, but let’s face it, I highly doubt it’s about multiple orgasms right?! I don’t think it has anything to do with sex at all, but you know the old saying, “sex sells” so they just had to use that angle to get everyone’s attention.
My guess that it’s a fashion or shopping related advertisement. She looks like a shopaholic to me. Maybe it’s a new clothes store coming out, or OMG, maybe it’s a new shoe store, GASP! What do you think? I want to hear what you think her big secret confession is!
I’m way too impatient for this kind of suspense. I wonder if I can find anything on Google about it NOW! Make sure to pass it along to all your friends and see if they can figure the mystery out.
There’s nothing like kicking off the work week by looking for shoes online. I know, I know, I should be diving into my email, or looking at the ‘work flow’ sheet for projects to complete, but a girl MustHaveShoes, right??!! I’m going on a business dinner cruise at the end of the month on Lake Minnetonka in Minnesota, so I need to find just the perfect shoes to wear. I usually pick out the shoes I want first, then I choose the dress. Is that backwards? How do you do it?
MustHaveShoes is a cute website, that you can search for the exact shoes you want just by typing in a keyword. I chose the keyword ‘sexy.’ That search term brought me 28 results, not bad 
The shoes I have in the picture there are kind of cute, and would fit in perfectly for ‘business attire,” but I’m still looking around the site more.
They offer free shipping, which is always a good thing, and their return policy is pretty reasonable. “You have 30 days from the date your shoes arrive at your shipping address to return your shoes for full credit. Only unworn merchandise in its original shoe box/packaging will be accepted.”
