GLAM ALERT...SUMMER $PECIAL$

Summer's here, that means its time to hit the beach or spring for a tropical vacation. If you're on a budget the best place to do your summer shopping is the Fashion Outlet's. Every major city has at least one. You just need to locate the stores that have the best deals. Saving funds on a summer wardrobe leaves you more for taking a weekend or 7 day vacation.  Below are 5 Must Have Summer Suggestions for you to consider.  The best place to get you started is the outlets. Here's an inside tip: Should you like a better deal, than sign-up for your chosen fashion outlet location VIP Club or Newsletter. This will provide you a heads-up on additional  discounts from your favorite brands and often freebies with purchase.

Hitting the outlets at least twice a year is a guarantee for my fashionistas and I.  My chosen outlet locations are the PREMIUM OUTLETS. A convenient location we often visit is the Camarillo Outlet located in Ventura County. The girls & I get an early start on a TGIF and head down the 101 freeway stopping for a nice breakfast along the way spending a couple of hours at the outlet, then continue down the coast to Santa Barbara for the remainder of the weekend & sometimes even an extended vacation. Santa Barbara will consist of spa treatments, more shopping and of course making a stop in Solvang. They have the absolute best restaurants for breakfast-Crepes that is. You can't visit Santa Barbara without visiting the vineyards for wine tasting.



5 Summer Must Have Suggestions: Whether you're staying local or traveling this summer? You'll definitely need the following items.


1. Beautiful, durable, chic affordable luggage on wheels with pulley.
2. A fabulous summer wardrobe that consist of day wear, afternoon wear, cocktail hour, evening festivities, sensible undergarments, sexy lingerie and no girls outfit is complete without a variety of shoes to select from.
3. At least two pair of sun glasses with UV protection, The perfect swimsuit, cover-up, beach towel, sunscreen, lip balm, good book-nook, Ipod, and camera.
4. Summer Satchel that's large enough to hold your glasses and all the essential items a fashionista needs.

 5. A good attitude. Summer is a time for relaxation. Leave the Do Not Disturb sign on the door for anyone who wants to steal your joy.

* All the items above you can purchase at the outlets. Now you make the choice of purchasing at full retail price or 40%-70% less.  Remember summer is only a couple of months. You'll be putting the clothes away at the end of August. At least you should be.



drezrehersal Tip...In order to have a summer that exceeds all expectations try to let go, do something you normally wouldn't do or visit somewhere you've always wanted. Doesn't matter if its with a significant other, friend(s) or by yourself. Just let go. Leave all your cares & worries behind. It's perfectly fine once in awhile to say "I Remember Me".

the drezrehersal...Lifestyle Lesson's in the Search for Happiness

EAT PRAY LOVE is the HOT new movie for the Summer.  A true story from Elizabeth Gilbert, One woman's search for everything across Italy, India and Indonesia. If you haven't had the opportunity to read the New York Times best selling notable book - then after reading this lifestyle experience, run to your nearest bookstore and purchase it. Don't have time for that-thank goodness for online.

To give you a little insight on what I called an experience, search for true happiness with one self. Elizabeth Gilbert in her early thirties had everything a women could every dream of or want at that age. The so called American white picket fence dream; successful career, husband and yes the American dream of owning your own home- not just any home a country home. That should make anyone happy right? Nope, instead of feeling happy and fulfilled, she was consumed by panic & confusion. Something many women go through at one point in their life. We try to be everything to everyone except the person that counts the most; yourself. I have been blessed too have many wonderful life experiences that can make you or break you. Prior to me starting my event planning business, I had the opportunity to travel some parts of the world and there's nothing more fulfilling then traveling alone across the country. In order to find out just who you are, what you want out of life and then be able to completely give yourself to a mate; you must experience spending time alone. Truly alone.

drezrehersal Tip...Before you take that journey to marriage its so important that you are fully prepared for everything the "Union" has to offer.

5 Things I recommend every women to do prior to marriage.


1. Live alone. This means living completely on your own without a roommate.
2. Travel alone. Solo, just you- No BFF, No Go-to-Girls, No Boyfriend.
3. Eat at a Five Star Restaurant- Yes Alone (Doing something special for yourself, eat till your heart is content-Really Eat, glass of wine, 3 course meal and last but not least dessert-Go for it.
4. Attend a Movie (Laugh, Cry just be one w/ you).
5. Take a Yoga Class-Solo, just you- No BFF, No Go-to-Girls. (Getting closer to your heart & soul).


It may seem trivial, but not everyone is comfortable being alone. You must learn how to spend time with yourself, before you can be part of a "UNION". If you take this journey you will learn some key points about who you really are , what your desires and dreams are for your life. Not what society says we should have. The grass isn't always greener on the other side and you never know how high that mountain was too climb for someone else's success. A successful career, diamonds & pearls, the finest car, big house, money in the bank, marriage along with the white picket fence is absolutely meaningless if you're not HAPPY.


Take a leap of faith and go see the movie EAT PRAY LOVE "ALONE". Experience the life changing moments of Elizabeth Gilbert, which is played by the beautiful Julia Roberts and you may be surprised to learn what I know will be some key points about yourself. The character in the movie travels through India, Italy and Indonesia. I have visited Bali which was a life changing experience for me and actually open my mind, heart and soul to experience life to the fullest. During that life changing moment I knew I wanted too create my own destiny, which was living everyday like a Fabulous Party. My business was born from that moment on. I am open to the possibilities that life has to offer and each day can & will be much more rewarding if you are in-tune with yourself 100%.


It's disturbing when I hear women say he completes me. No one should complete you. You are the key to your own happiness. A mate can make your life more rewarding, but should you not have someone special in your life doesn't mean you are worth anything less. Learn to love you, before you say yes to a "UNION".
