NEW YEARS EVE
Dazzling dress, sparkling stilettos, classic clutch; your New Year’s Eve outfit is the perfect opportunity to show off that body you’ve been working on all year! On the other hand, you may not be quite ready to commit to that inevitable “get fit” resolution until the New Year is official. Regardless, it’s time to flaunt your best assets. Here are some tips, tricks, and product suggestions to make sure your perfect look is just that.
Going sleeveless is a fabulous way to show off great, toned arms. A dress with straps that curve slightly inward will accentuate and reveal more shoulder. If you’re loving the one-shoulder look, seek out one that falls just below the shoulder blades to reveal that most definition of your upper back.

Here at Joonbug, we say there’s no better way to end the year on a good note than with an extraordinary meal. It’s been a tough year, so relax and leave the research to us.

Here we are, in the midst of the holiday season and its multitude of glamorous parties, begging our skin to be on its best behavior against the harsh winter weather! It's difficult to confidently choose the right products for you skin, especially when quality products are often an investment. In order to take care of your skin effectively and not add to the trouble, you must consider the facts about what is good for your skin type! Knowing your own skin type is extremely important because different types react differently to products. We wish it were easy to give you one magical lotion or face wash that works for everyone, but we cannot and neither can Sephora. Not to worry, we have some bad behavior, complexion killer solutions to help you "save face" this holiday season!
My poor girlfriend. She’s an only child. Her Thanksgiving dinners consisted of 3 people at a table. She’s not ready for this.
Oh, well. The walk in the park had to end sometime.
In T-minus two weeks, my sweet, loving girlfriend will innocently wander into the lion’s den: the writhing, carnivorous mass of 45 people called the Mielke family. Parents, siblings, 13 aunts and uncles, 15 cousins. If you count all the second cousins, there will be 5 sets of twins at our Christmas party.
RedRush Entertainment, Zackary Dugow, and Mark Watson are hosting three exclusive, open-bar New Year’s Eve parties. All parties include a premium open bar from 9pm-2am, passed hors d'oeurvres from 9pm-12am, a champagne toast, and select world renowned DJs.
SantaCon is back.
The nation's largest "non-denominational, non-commercial, non-political and non-sensical Santa Claus convention that occurs once a year for absolutely no reason" is set to take place this weekend, when thousands of Santa-clad men and women will take to the streets, looking to distribute holiday cheer.
The public party (also commonly referred to as a "pub crawl," "bizarre spectacle," and "excuse for public drunkeness") will take place on Saturday. The location, which always remains secret until the night before, will be announced on the group's website on Friday evening. You can also subscribe to Santa's Twitter feed (@SantaCon) for updates.
2012 is upon us. It may be our last year on Earth if we believe the Mayans (and that awful John Cusack movie), but that won’t put an end to the preparation, partying, and regretful resolutions that come with the turning of a new page on the calendar. Whether you plan on ordering pizza and watching Dick Clark with mom, or you want to hit the clubs and forget there was a 2011 altogether, here are some jams to have on your New Year’s Eve mix.
U2 – “New Year’s Day”
It's the most wonderful time of the year... for the most terrible photos of the year. We love the holidays. Not only for the presents, family, and food, but for the awkward photos that ensue. Whether it's a shot of someone at the office holiday party who had one too many spiked ciders, the disappointed look on the face of the kid who just received a terrible present, or best of all; the awkward family portrait. The sweaters. The uncomfortable poses. The strained smiles. All priceless. So what better way to celebrate this wonderful time of the year, than with our favorite awkward family photos?
