What the world sees

When it comes to us curvy divas, you know the world is looking at you wherever you go. Am I right, or am I right?  What, they don't do that to you?  Hmmm, that means you might need to amp it up a bit so that you can be remembered wherever you go!

What is the first thing that someone will notice about you when they meet you?  No, besides that gorgeous outfit that you're rocking!  The next thing they will remember is not whether you have fresh breath or not, it is how beautiful your skin is!  At any age, having great skin is one of the best thing any of us can do for ourselves.  The one thing I've always read is that if they do nothing else, most people will spend money, lots of it, on their skin!  

Guess where I was on Saturday morning?  At a hotel attending a Mary Kay event!  My daughters, Jessica and Amanda and I went over to the Holiday Inn Express in our neck of the woods where Jessica was invited to a morning of pampering by the gorgeous ladies of Mary Kay Cosmetics!  She invited us to go along with her!

In attendance were several brides to be with their guests, and the hostesses of the event, Adriane, Lisa and Heather from Mary Kay Cosmetics.  They are trying to see how many facials they can do in 30 days!!!  They have quite a competition going on! We walked in and were greeted enthusiastically by our hosts who made us feel quite at home!  Then were given Mimosas....of the virgin variety!

A refreshing drink! (refilled however many times you want too!)








We completed a survey card so that they could have an idea of what our skin type was and the type of makeup we like.  






For the next two hours we experienced the use of their skin products and learned what not to do to our skin, and what we could use to make it look so much better!




By the time we were finished, our skins were soft and glowing!   There was some competitiveness going on to see which of the attendees could collect the most raffle tickets so we could win give-a-ways!


At the end of the event we were given a sample of their skin lotion.  I walked away with a smile on my face and with my skin glowing!  I loved that they didn't pressure anyone into buying anything, that was totally up to each of us!  If you ever get an invite to go to one of these events curvy divas, do go!  It will turn out to be a fabulous experience!

Backstage at OIFW Model Casting Call

On Saturday, yesterday in fact, I had the pleasure of attending a casting call for models , an event organized and hosted by Fierce Entertainment Management for their upcoming Orlando International Fashion Week, November  2-8, 2014 . Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided.   Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little  tête-à-tête   with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4,  beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of!   ...

Window Shopping Part Deux - What I Chose

As you know from my last article , I went shopping for swimsuit with my teen Mandi and ended up doing the same for myself. After all, I was in need of a new bathing suit. My last purchase for one was from Target eight years ago! And also during that time, I was the lucky recipient of two new suits from my BSFFL (Best Sister Friend For Life) who visited from Europe! So Those have lasted quite a long time!
