Everything She Wants

We hate to sound like a broken record, but we love comfort shoes.  And Rockport is one of the best brands for comfort and style.  Just in time for back to school (even though our school days are behind us), we were sent a pair of Rockport's XCS Rock On Air Laceup, and we've been wearing them all around New York City and on a recent trip to Baltimore's Inner Harbor. Feel the Rockport differenc e.  The lightweight sneakers are fashion forward with a subtle Zebra embossed print, and they're so comfy they live up to their name. You'll feel like you're walking on air.  And get this, the leather is machine washable.  About Rockport comfort shoes: You may be familiar with the brand and what they're known for, but what you may not know is the awesome technology behind every pair. Whether walking shoes or 3" + high heels, every style is engineered from the inside out with amazing technology to provide you with all day comfort. ADIPRENE by adi

To alleviate these troubling symptoms, your doctor might recommend hormone replacement therapy.   But be aware that traditional HRT drugs like Premarin have been linked to an increased risk of endometrial cancer and heart disease. An alternative, however, is the more “natural” form of HRT you may have heard Oprah raving about, known as bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT).  To give us the skinny on bio-identical hormones, we interviewed Dr. Gino Tutera , a respected obstetrician-gynecologist in Scottsdale, Arizona. Everything She Wants : What are the benefits of taking bio-identical hormones for peri-menopausal and menopausal women?
