I've professed my love for Google time and time again, and now with their new venture Tip Jar, they're helping me save some money.

I've professed my love for Google time and time again, and now with their new venture Tip Jar, they're helping me save some money.

Tip Jar allows you to post your most tried and true tips about saving money while traveling, babysitting, or commuting, and share them with the world. Have a tip about how to get the best rates when traveling abroad? Or perhaps how to entertain your kids on a dime? Leave it in the Tip Jar, and get plenty of free tips in return. Personally, the one about never grocery shopping on an empty stomach really hits home with me. I always put junk in my cart I don't need just because I'm feeling ravenous, and end up spending more than I should. See? Already helpful.

Despite the recent Rachel Zoe/Anna Wintour fashion feud, Harper's Bazaar has had no qualms in taking in the stray fashionista.  I guess Editor-in-Chief Glenda Bailey wants to cause a little ruckus in the fashion world.  I overheard Ms. Bailey and another editor discussing a shoot styled by, da duh da duh, Ms. Zoe herself.

Will her first editorial styling gig put her up top with the likes of Brana Wolf or confirm that she should stick to dressing Hollywood starlets? My guess is . . . the latter. The issue should be out this Fall.

Sounds like Rachel is doing a throwback to her days at YM — she already styled Gwyneth Paltrow for Bazaar in the July 2008 issue, so maybe a more permanent gig is in the works?
