He's the cutest President we've ever had and once again he's amazing us with his social consciousness and making everyone aware of the news they need to know.  In order to promote World Humanitarian Day (8/19) KP brought Queen Bey on his show to ensure the masses knew the importance of the day.  You can click on the link below for the interview, he even snagged some sugah!  One smooth dude!!!

Pretty cool huh?  Maybe he'll be giving The Divas a call next....oh Kid President we've got a great interview for you.  Until then....Cheers!

Tequila Talk Tuesday

Well I've finally finished Andy Cohen's book Most Talkative and it gets two snaps up in a circle from me.  Not only was it in depth about some of the Housewife of (insert your favorite franchise here) drama but gave lots of behind the scenes on the man himself!  From a little boy being raised in St. Louis we learn about his journey in journalism.  I really had no idea he had such an extensive journalism background.  Like that he really knows Mike Wallace or wait is that Dan Rather?  Whatever that's pretty major!  One of the funniest things is his infatuation with Susan Lucci - really no surprise but I'll have to say Andy it's a bit unhealthy honey.  She's like OLD and yeah just move on! 

Anywhoo if you're looking for an end of the summer beach read this is the one.  Price is great when you download it your iPad or favorite e-Reader or hold up....Barnes and Noble has it for $1.99 in hardcover.  Ouchhhh (said in my Andy Cohen voice).   

If you've read it let me know what you thought?  Was I the only one that took 3 months to read it?  I want to know.  Drop me a line below.

Good Life - Dating Rules

On Saturday's show we talked about some dating rules and the StyleDIVA just ran across this great article by one of our BESTIEs Patrice Washington.  It's simply titled, 5 Signs You're Dating A Deadbeat - you are gonna love it.  Here's a little snippet:

On the surface a lot of guys can come across as "ballers," but its up to you to be alert and pay attention to the waving red flags that make it clear this stud is really being a bum with his money.  Before dating becomes "I do," look for these warning signs and clues.  If you find them, run OR go through some serious counseling before walking down the aisle! Remember, most marriages end over financial disagreements, but be clear that people who enter marriage with bad money habits don't magically begin them because they're married.  They were showing signs all along!

Red Flag #1: He drives a big flashy car and lives in a fly apartment - the one he calls a "condo" - in the ritzy part of town, but his furniture consists of a futon and one flat screen television.  Okay, if he moved in last Saturday, then we can give him a pass, but if he's a grown man and he's been there longer than 30 days with no real furniture, chances are he's not the baller you thought he was.  The only thing worse would be him living in a fully furnished home. . . with his mama!

Good Life | Do you app?

Do you app?  Well here are some of the StyleDIVA's favorites.

1

1. Always have that feeling of undying gratitude?  I woke up this morning and am blessed!    This is the app for you.  Share your good feelings and they will come back to you.  I'm all about feeling that attitude of gratitude!  This app is only Apple based as of now.

2

2.  Get all of your blogs all in one spot.  If you are into the blogosphere you will LOVE this one!

3

3.  Can't sleep, need to do something a little mindless while waiting on your pedicure to dry?  This is the app for you.  Get your Sugar Crush with Candy Crush Saga.  It's a great game to link up and get help from your Facebook friends too but beware everyone doesn't like getting request.  :)

4

4.  Hotel Tonight is the app for the last minute traveler.  Believe it or not hotels don't sell out every night and they really want to have a full house.  Use this app when you are headed to Grandma's and you don't want to stay with her on that beat up sofa.  Check the app for great prices at great places to stay.

5

5.  Zumba Dance is the workout at home that you'll give two snaps in a circle.  Download this app and get your Salsa on.  Great way to try out Zumba before hitting a class full of Zumba Heads that make you look like you have two left feet.  Get yo Zumba on girl!

Leave me a comment and let me know how you like the apps I suggested and give me a suggestion on some that you like too!  

Cheers,

Tequila Talk Tuesday

I'm loving the new cover of O Magazine with our girl Oprah and her 5000 inch afro wig.  Work it girl!  I can't imagine the work it took to do this cover.  Whatever it took it was SOOOO worth it.  She never ceases to amaze us and we can't wait for the next BIG Oprah thing.  Cheers to you O!

Since it's Tequila TALK Tuesday let us know what you think about this look.  Did I mention that orange dress is to die for too!?!?!?!

With Style,

Vicki G - The Old G of OC Shows Us Her Redecorated Home

I have always loved watching the Real Housewives of Orange County since the very beginning and I have enjoyed watching Vicki Gunvalson (the show's last original member) maneuver through life.  We watched her as she was building her business from her home office (remember when Lauri used to work for her?); raised her kids; went through good and bad times with her husband Don (sadly they eventually divorced); to now where she is dating, still building her brand and business and most importantly enjoying being a grandmother. From what we can see, she is in an entirely "new" space and we're head over heels happy for her.  Recently she gave BravoTV.com a peek inside her beautiful home after undertaking a HUGE redecorating project.



My favorite rooms have got to be the kitchen and the family room.  What is your favorite feature of her home?  Tell us what you think
