You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht...Your hat strategically dipped below one eye....Your scarf it was apricot...Just Carly..who never really did say who the song was about.

They say beauty is only skin deep and if we know anything from the movie Shrek, true love comes from your true self and not what's found on the surface. But alas, this portfolio Poor Shrek won't be noticed if he does not become handsome to win the hand of Princess Fiona. Which is so silly, if Fiona wasn't so blind she would have noticed Shrek was her true love in the first three minutes of the movie instead of almost marrying Lord Farquaad who really just wanted her riches or to be king....but lucky for Shrek and Fiona they fall in love and the Groom Lord Farquaad gets eaten by a Dragon. Boy, totally off topic.

Anyway, in this point in history, as witnessed by the TV show "The Swan" anyone can be beautiful...so I give you the following plays for the terminally Vain.
My First choice was going to be EL but they just reported BTE, so I give you Elizabeth Arden (RDEN)..so you can smell like Hillary Duff...Next, I give you DISCA..they are going to have Dr. Oz (Oprah's Guy) showing us how to stay young. Followed by CALM, because isn't beauty just the mere shell of a person. Also, you got to move that body...and it may feel alittle pain, ouch..so on the cheap and down low I give you PRGO.. And last..in case you need to see a total eclipse of the sun... LFL.....You're so vain, I'll bet you think this Portfolio is about you...Don't you? Don't you? LOL, Nymph
