Pack, tan, laundry..not necessarily in that order

There's something about a sun kissed glow that makes you look young, vibrant, healthy and beach ready don't you think?

There really is nothing like a tan...a spray tan that is!

In preparation for my trip (36 hours..OMG!) I decided to get a little bronzed up with the help of Tan on the Run which is a travelling air brush spray tan service available here in Toronto and select cities throughout Canada.

Before:


















Now that's a girl who just went through a long Canadian winter if I ever saw one!

After:






































Now that's a little better don't ya think?

The best part is that it took less than 1/2 hour (including the time to stand around and completely dry), it looks really authentic and there's no harmful UVA or UVB rays. That's right friends, its beauty meets health and I am so down for that!!!


And because I am so excited for my trip I thought I would share some of my amazing fashion bargains that are perfect for a beach getaway!

$15



$20

$8


How awesome is that? I love getting fun clothes at a great price.

All and all I'd say I am just about ready for vacation to begin. One more long run, laundry, packing and 2 nights sleep and I am off!


So tell me, have you have tried an air brushed tan? Do you have any luck finding good deals on fashion items?

  5. I've never had a spray tan before. I think I look good pale. I can usually find good deals on fashion stuff, but I try to control myself and stay on a budget.

  7. I have never had a spray tan. I've never even thought about it. (I don't know how that's possbile since i'm a jersey shore addict.) I would be so afraid I'd come out orange!!

    I just got some cute stuff from Old Navy, and Ross. I love Ross when I can find good stuff there.

  9. Your tan really looks good. I live in Austin and therefore have a year-round tan. I think Texas has the 2nd highest rate of skin cancer in the US. Hmmm.

  11. jealous of your tan! i refuse to use tanning beds, and i'm afraid of streaks, so i've been stuck being pasty white for a looooong time. maybe you've convinced me to try spray tan though!
