Whoa… what’s up with all the weird hair, Hollywood? In the past week or so, a whole bunch of celebs collectively decided to get a little crazy with the dye—and I’m talking the BLUE and PINK kind of crazy. The only explanation I can think of, even though I don’t really believe in astrology, is that there’s a Mercury Retrograde going on right now and it’s working its voodoo.

Eeks! It’s the last week of 2010—how did that happen?
Hopefully Santa was good to you on Saturday and you’re taking some time off this week to lounge around, eat a lot, maybe have a sneaky shopping trip or two and then eat and lounge some more. (Oh and maybe play with some of your new beauty prodz.)
