By Liz Vaccariello, Editor-in-Chief, PREVENTION, on Tue Jul 1, 2008 2:49pm PDTGood health does NOT have to be expensive, time-consuming, or a lot of hard work.

What's your biggest home splurge?
By Valerie Rains, Shine staff, on Tue Jul 1, 2008 12:46pm PDTWhile, in all practicality, my next home splurge should be a really great, ergonomic desk chair, I just can't seem to get excited about that and will probably end up going for the least expensive (and least ugly) thing that looks like it has any back support at all, and save my rainy day money for something more like a vacation*. The truth is, I am bad at splurging. Like almost physically incapable of it. I envy the people who can buy the high(er)-end but well-constructed sofa they truly love and then fill the rest of the living room with cheapies from discount stores and flea markets. In my home, it's all cheapies. I know, I know, it's a recession now, no one needs to be splurging anyway, blah blah blah, but I'm still curious what other people will willfully ignore (or completely rearrange) their budgets in order to procure for their homes—fancy appliances? artwork? iconic furniture? high-thread-count sheets?

By Sarah, on Fri Apr 18, 2008 9:11am PDTWho doesn't love a sundress? Flowy and yet still form fitting enough, classic, simple and so light and comfortable -- and reminiscent of big porches and cold glasses of lemonade.Splurge! That's why I love this sundress from Lilly Pulitzer. And yes, it is expensive ($298) for this... Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (1) | Blog
