Broke & Beautiful was given a Premio Award by the darling, beautiful, clever, wonderful Budget Babe, and are so honored! Especially from such an esteemed blog as The Budget Babe!

Well… I’ll stick with the [...]

Well… Sorta.
Basically what I mean by that is “Broke & Beautiful now has a MySpace Page!” That’s right, we’ve given in to the machine.
But we need friends. We don’t want to look like losers, dude!

Yes! I’m on a rampage again, professing my love for the Skribit widget in the left sidebar.
A couple weeks ago, a wonderful reader posted a suggestion to feature plus-sized clothing… It would have taken me much longer to think about posting plus sized clothing if it wasn’t for her.
I want to encourage all of you [...]

In my half-awake stupor this morning, I stumbled over to my computer without thought as usual… Ready to wade through the spam, and force myself to read my 1000+ posts on google reader. However, when I checked my e-mail, instead I saw something awesome!
HOW EXCITING to see an e-mail in my inbox letting me know [...]

I’ve been absent! I know! It’s awful.
…Well, not really. I’ve been away building my very first, very best photography portfolio/blog/whatever! Some of you know, and some of you don’t, but in October, I’m hauling my excited little butt (and my boyfriend’s, too) halfway across the country to Chicago, IL where I’ll do all I can [...]

Delicious, delicious bargains. I love it.

So here’s to being broke. *cheers!*
xoxo.

It’s so dark up here!

I finally bit the bullet… And dyed my hair myself! I know, I know… Stylists are all cringing as they read this, but I’m broke & impatient! So for less than $20, I got myself a gourmet hair color.
BEFORE:

The color’s accurate… But the weird processing is what happens when you try to edit photos NOT [...]
