**My Fave Products and Favorites of 2012**

I am absolutely loving this year and I want to share with you my favorite products that have been making my life easier and more fabulous.

One product that I just can't get enough of is the Sebastian Violet spray. This stuff is amazing, only a tiny amount is needed and it gives your hair so much lift and structure. It's like a miracle worker for my locks! I've found that using too much of it makes it look weird, so you have to be careful with the application. But trust me, this product rocks my socks off and I'm never going to get rid of it.

I also love my Mason Pearson hair brush. This is not just a hairbrush, it's a life-changer. If I don't touch my Mason Pearson, it feels like something is missing from my day. My hair would be a dark hole without it - no way! I've been using this brush for years and it's still the best one out there.

For my nails, I have two favorite polishes that I just can't get enough of. First up is the OPI nail polish in Golden Eye. This shade is so gorgeous and people go nuts when they see me wearing it! It's like a statement piece on my hands. But I also love the glittery be good to me by OPI - this one is sort of like a rose gold bronze with hot pink magenta glitters mixed into it. It's just so much fun!

My perfume of choice is Lancome's Lizzie A Bell. This scent is amazing and I feel like Julia Roberts dancing in crystals every time I put it on! The commercial is iconic, but the real deal is even better.

**Favorite TV Shows, Movies, Music, and Worst of 2012**

Now that we've got our favorite products covered, let's talk about some of my other fave things from 2012. First up are my favorite TV shows, movies, music, and worst of the year.

The best TV show in my opinion is The Walking Dead - hands down! This show has been giving me gray hairs since season one (yes, I'm a true fan!). It's like a rollercoaster ride of emotions every week. But what really sets it apart is its Cliffhangers and Shockers that always keep me on the edge of my seat.

American Horror Story was another favorite this year - absolutely fan-tastic! Crazy, twisty, and just plain psycho... I mean, if you like that sort of thing. If you haven't watched it yet, trust me, your mind will be blown.

On the other hand, True Blood was a major letdown for me in 2012. Something went terribly wrong with their storyline, and it felt like every week, they were mixing up seven different stories into one big mess. I was left feeling lost and confused. So while it was still entertaining, I wouldn't say it was my favorite.

**Favorite Movies of 2012**

Speaking of movies, two that really stood out to me this year were The Dark Knight Rises and The Five Year Engagement. Tom Hardy in The Dark Knight Rises is just... WOW. Can we talk about how gorgeous he is? Not only is his acting incredible, but he's like a superhero on screen! And as for The Five-Year Engagement, I laughed so hard during that one part - it was hilarious!

On the other hand, The Divide was sort of a weird experience for me. It was just too much to handle at times, and I found myself feeling uncomfortable. Maybe it wasn't my cup of tea.

**Favorite Music of 2012**

Last but not least, let's talk about music! For me, this year has been all about Lana Del Rey's Paradise Edition of Born to Die. I mean, holy crappers - this album is just incredible from start to finish. It's like a dreamy, gothic fairy tale in a nutshell.

That concludes my 2012 highlights and favorites - it's been a wild ride! Thanks so much for sticking with me through all the craziness. If you're still here, welcome! I love having you as part of this community, and I'm excited to see what 2013 brings...

2012. True Blood I don't know what happened back there but back there something went wrong they had like seven stories mixed with each other and nothing like really nothing made any sense anymore and every week when I watched True Blood I was like what in my opinion the best two movies this year were the Dark Knight Rises Tom Hardy do I have to say more Tom Hardy is so gorgeous it's insane it's mean to
