So, what did you do during your Bombshell Weekend? It could be all out crazy glamour or something as simple as putting red lipstick on just to go to the store. What did you do to feel like a Bombshell?
Your newly decorated apartment must be a pleasure.
Long distance relationship are not easy.Enjoy your time together.Jean

Bombshell weekend in crispy cold Canada
I like this idea :) I have an afternoon date with my husband tomorrow - matinee (seeing Up in the Air with George Clooney) and then we're going out for an early dinner while grandma watches the kids. I will make an extra effort to look smokin' hot for my man tomorrow :) I have some really vampy sparkly charcoal eyeshadow - maybe I'll pair that with a natural, shiny gloss.

I have had a lazy afternoon at the theatre, a lovely meal with OH and now we are relaxing over the remains of a bottle of Cote de Rhone. He will be asleep soon having worked while I was out. I will therefore relax and Bombshell beautifully.

My bombshell weekend start!
Hi there, all! I am new to the forums, having just committed to the FWDGF lifestyle! I live in Colorado, but have felt French all my life! Anyway, yesterday, I ventured out for a tiny walk, while doing my Leeks Detox Weekend, and (here it comes...) wrapped my head and neck in a big warm scarf, very a la french!
I am enjoying ALL of your posts!

Sorry you are both not well, hope by now you are both feeling better.
We had a lovely weekend in Scotland. Rosslyn Abbey was magnificent despite the scaffolding. It is having extensive conservation as the weather has done mch damage, but still is beautiful. We arrived home early this evening so I have not had much time to catch up with you all. As I am gradually getting sleepier I will save the posts until tomorrow. Sleep tight all of you. Marilyn

I cannot abide
tinned soups anymore. I love making my own and the roasted tomato is a fave. We had it and toasted tuscan garlic loaf drizzled with olive oil and sharp cheddar cheese for dinner. This week should be pretty decent and Friday is a two hour early release day. I decided that laundry could wait until midweek. I have to maintain the house and it looks like the family day will be Wed. 23rd. Are you feeling any better? Here's a hug! Deborah

Oh, Jean...
Lots of chicken soup and tea with honey! Put it in your best cups and bowls. Find something fuzzy, warm and pretty and wrap yourself up in it. Lounge... or languish... if you like... on the couch, in a dramatic pose, ala Greta Garbo, and let the Bombshell weekend begin. :)
Hope you feel better soon,

Bombshell Weekend Manifesto Sounds Fun....What is It??? LOL
I'm in, now what do we do??? Maybe this weekend....
Speaking of makeovers, it's very fun, as most cosmetic counters will do a free makeover...and of course we all end up buying something.
I am going for a pedicure today......and pulling out all my warm sweaters and getting my boots organized.....for this cold weather.....which I love!!!!
I love doing little things that make me feel feminine......Its awesome being a woman isn't it? I think so. I love dressing feminine too....whatever I wear like some nice trousers with a blazer, I love to add a feminine touch. I've been called a "princess" before from my friends. Don't know if this is a positive or a negative????
Regards to all today.....hope your day is a beautiful one...YES, we are all bombshells~~
Wouldn't it be fun if we all could meet in Paris for a few days and stay at the same hotel???
