Latest Bond Girl Super Cool
I enjoy James Bond movies, and the latest is really good. I especially like the chemistry between 007 (Daniel Craig) and actress Camille Seydoux.

Pop Colors Make a Difference
While some stylists don’t agree, I think wearing the right colors is just as important as the clothing cut and fit.
