If you checked into thespiff this morning, and were dissappointed at the lack of freshness, I apologize.

I’ve been playing catch up from the holidays.

The good news is the spiff is in the oven for tomorrow and will be served up hot AND fresh.

Until then, here’s some last minute spiff about keeping yourself spiffy down to the last minute…

Keep everything the way it was when you entered the party. The holiday’s mean lots of great party time and if you’re anything like me you’ll spend plenty of time planning how you’re going to show up to the party, down to the way the hair falls across your forehead.

Good, then keep it that way.

Don’t go changing your hair style, or pulling off your pumps-keep your look going strong until the very end. Now I’ll be the very first to admit that this sometimes means you’ve got to sacrifice comfort, but it’s like working out-you’ve got to suffer a little pain in order to keep the air about you confident.

If it’s severe pain (I’m talking your finger is on the 9 of 911), or if you were on the receiving end of a food fight then do sweep your hair up and move on…other then that, stay the way you came-looking amazing-down to the last minute.
