Bitches on a Budget


Thanks for inviting us to guest blog on Homemade Mom.  It’s been an awesome week. Our book Bitches on a Budget: Sage Advice for Surviving Tough Times in Style, was just released and has been #1 in the “Hot New Releases Category in Consumer Behavior” on Amazon.  In addition to writing for the Huffington Post, our daily blog bitchesonabudget.com and our incredibly active Fan page on Facebook, we’re working on a television series for The Bitches!  So exciting.


The Bitches is a compendium of smart tips and thoughtful advice about living a stylish life for less.  It’s fun to read, sometimes bawdy, often ironic, and chock full of practical help and information. Ten chapters cover everything from: shopping, to exercise, to healthy eating, to wheels, to travel, to home décor, to food, to pets (pamper the bitch).   A modern woman just can’t (even if she could afford to) consume everything in her path.  After all, nothing is less attractive than a bloated bitch. 


We know how hard it is for busy moms stretched tight for time and cash to take care of themselves.  But it’s important to remember that you too deserve pampering. We have an entire chapter devoted to grooming, and thought it would be fun to share just a snippet.

A little taste from our book published by the New American Library division of
Penguin books.

Hair Obsessed

You hate your hair.  It’s too thin, too thick, too curly, too straight. The color is dark, it’s mousy, it’s oxidized, it’s gray.  The ends are split; the strands are fried. It looks different every morning; it looks the same every morning.  How neurotic!
Take heart! You’re not alone: just like most women think they’re too fat, most women hate their hair. Yes, you are just a normal bitch with low hair-esteem. This makes you easy prey for all those overrated snippy stylists with more attitude than talent, for those glammy mags whoring goods masked as ‘tips,’ for those nauseating cure-all shampoos and dyes pitched by over-processed starlets.  Baby, it’s time for some serious hair behavior therapy.
