Saying "YES" to Eco-Friendly Dresses & Accessories


drezrehersal Tip…If you’re a Bride who takes great pride in caring for the environment then when planning your wedding you just might consider purchasing an Eco-Friendly Gown. Not just any gown, however your very own custom couture gown. I know you're probably thinking "Couture" usually comes with a high price tag. That's not always the case and I'll provide you a cost effective option to have your dream gown without paying the platinum price. Purchasing the bridal gown is a big step that takes careful thought, time & consideration. Of course most brides want their wedding gown to be like no other. Designing your own is often the way to go and pricing is comparable to purchasing one already made. So if you had the choice to spend the same but guaranteed it's a one of kind.

Eco Chic Oh Yes...Reduce & Reuse. The key to an Eco-Friendly wedding that still exemplifies style. Focus on the 2 C’s — Conscious & Conserve. Using accents or materials doesn’t just save money, it saves resources. What Does Eco-Friendly Really Mean? Environmentally Friendly (also eco-friendly, nature friendly and green) are synonyms used to refer to goods and services considered to inflict minimal or no harm on the environment. To make consumers aware, environmentally friendly goods and services often are marked with Eco-labels

PREVIEW BOOK PARTY~REWRITE YOUR STORY by SHIVAWN A. MITCHELL

Three things I'm all for is empowering, supporting, up-lifting others. One question I often get ask when being interviewed: What is Your Golden Nugget of Advice? Just one of my answers: On your journey to success remember to be a blessing to someone else that may be striving for where you are now. When ask by Shivawn Mitchell entrepreneur of the Love Movement Network if I would take part in her Preview Book Party "Rewriting Your Story". My immediate answer was I would be honored. Just a little background on how I have had the pleasure to know Shivawn. Shivawn & I initially meet through a networking group that wasn't the Love Movement Network, which anyone who knows me knows I'm extremely comfortable being the sociable butterfly. That immediate connection than spilled over to twitter, which then lead her to interview me for her Radio Show. We have since than built a bond that far exceeds social networking. So, if you want the truth that may not always be served on a pretty platter I'm the girl to come to. I Say What I Mean & Mean What I Say, but the deliver is often with "LOVE".

REWRITE YOUR STORY
by Shivawn A. Mitchell
Soon after me saying yes, I received Shivawn first chapter titled, Loving Him More Than Me. The title alone definitely got my attention and I said to myself this is going to be deep. I made sure not to have any interruptions so I could give all my attention to the 12 pages that she in-trusted me with. It's like turning over your precious baby to someone and saying don't drop them. "Big Pressure". I won't give you the full details of the chapter, but it hit a core with me. OK , I enjoying teasing just a bit so I'll share a paragraph of the chapter with you.

Rewrite Your Story by Shivawn A. Mitchell
A portion of Chapter 1: Loving Him More Than Me

I remember coming back home from work one day, thinking about how I was tired of chasing men and dating ones who had commitment issues. I pretty much was in a serious dating slump by choice. So, I decided, out loud, that with the next guy I dated, I was going to take it slow, no rushing into a relationship just because my marriage plan hadn't worked out.

The plan was that I would meet my husband in college, we would graduate, get married, have children, live in a nice house and attend church every Sunday. My plans so didn't work out that way.

This particular paragraph was a red flag for me. However, life is like being in school 24-7~365 days. You're learning something everyday, then tested. You either "APPLY" the lesson or "FAIL" in the process, but "NEVER" Give-Up. After reading the chapter and providing my feedback to Shivawn to then receive an email back from her making me aware referencing words of encouragement for a Blog post I had written awhile ago. The post made a huge impact on her, which in-turn she makes reference of in the book Rewrite Your Story. I had no idea of this when she initially came to me to be part of the preview book party. Which now I know the favorable blessing I'm currently working on is definitely GOD saying your steps are moving in the right direction.

Shivawn is headed in that right direction with her Love Movement Network who's mission is
living out visions eternally through a community of women and teens of all ethnicity's and various ages that are committed to increasing their awareness in personal growth, financial freedom, health-beauty wellness, and developing entrepreneurs. It is our mission to impact each others lives in a positive manner as well as our community and the next generation.


I'm confidant that her personal journey will assist other women in its never to late to Rewrite Your Story. After reading the first chapter I was on pins & needles wanting more. I'll be waiting for the mail man everyday until I received my autograph copy.

Now that the previewing party is over let's get started with the pre-order party via @ www.shivawnamitchell.com  Rewrite Your Story pre-orders will be available until August 31st. To view my preview party comments on Rewrite Your Story~Loving Him More Than Me

LIFE LESSON IN TRUST...


Going about your day requires patience & grace. Patience that you won't encounter some knucklehead to ruffle your feathers. Grace that you know how to handle without re-acting if it should happen. Part of my daily prayer always includes asking God to continue guiding me in the right direction that is his will for me along with patience, grace and hope. I started to really think about that those words that have consistently been the recipe for my day-to-day. Now, I know the world isn't always peaches and cream. Although that would be super sweet if it was. So when the peach goes bad & the cream goes sour. Who Do You Turn To?


Your first instinct may be to call a good friend. Take a deep breath so you're thinking clearly and not re-acting to the situation at hand. You should be careful who you share your thoughts with especially when everything is a big blur. Taking a timeout to re-gain your thoughts will provide you some solitude in what to do next. Having a confidant you can turn to is great. Having someone who has your best interest at all times is priceless. I had a moment in time yesterday that I needed to take my own advice. Instead of leaping out to a friend I knew there was a better way to handle what I was feeling & the relief I needed. Something I tell myself daily is: Let No One Steal Your Joy.  But, we're human & although I try to live a stress free life thinking happy thoughts throughout the day. The mood does shift from time to time. Where Should I Turn? PRAYER... In my moment of praying for answers with the situation I was dealing with. I had an Aha Moment of "TRUST". Trusting in God, that the exact issue I was upset about was something I had been praying on consistently for the past month. Not recognizing it at the time, this is exactly what I ask God for. And finally he answered my prayer just on his timeline. Placing trust in God that he will provide you the answers when the time is right. The word trust came over me seven times over. Re-evaluating what had taken place by just breathing, centering myself to think logically. To then realize I hadn't applied the three words I always include in my prayers everyday and yes the first thing I wanted to do was call a girlfriend  just to vent. Life comes with challenges and what may be monumental to us is a piece of cake to God. Trust in him to navigate you through the bad traffic of life.

To my surprise when I called one friend she didn't answer. I started to call another, but was interrupted by a incoming call. The funny thing is I know God intervene at both times guiding me to seek him. My Aha Moment of this story is TRUST. Placing your trust in God & not man. Friends, Family, Associates & Relationships will disappoint you. God will never disappoint you, lead you down the wrong path or give you bad advice. In no way Am I saying friends give you bad advice, but at times you're seeking a conflict of interest advice. Trusting takes 100% commitment and no one has your back more than GOD. You may be in the middle of a life challenge now or face one in the future. How the recipe turns out depends on if you use the right ingredients. The recipe is TRUSTING in God. To do this calls for Guidance, Grace, Patience and Obedience in seeking God's will. Trust God and not Man to guide you through the perfect recipe. We all have minor hiccups in life its part of growing and becoming a better you. I'm back on my square and ready to get in the game called life. There's a reason for In God We Trust being placed on our currency. If you know the reason why, please share by commenting below or should you had an Aha Moment we love to hear your story.

drezrehersal Tip... Life Lesson I learned today is that it takes year's to gain trust and just a single moment to destroy it. Place your trust in God's hands for he will never forsake you or betray you by sharing what you bring to him in "TRUST".

Never Would Have Made ItNever Would Have Made It

Food for the Soul...
Psalm 12:6: The Lord's promise are pure, like silver refined in a furnace purified seven time over.


Psalm 13:5-6: But I trust in your unfailing love. I will rejoice because you have rescued me. I will sing to the Lord because he is good to me.

Psalm 37:4: Take delight in the Lord , and he will give you your hearts desires.

GLAM'ONDAY ALERT...HOORAY FOR SUMMER





Time to Exhale and Let Go...Its SUMMERTIME!

HOORAY FOR SUMMER... Are you excited as I am about Summer? We're only into week one; although the weather hasn't been cooperating that shouldn't stop us from preparing for what we know will be a great summer season. Placing positive energy into the universe is definitely a start to what you desire for yourself. Place it into existence and it shall be. The next few months for me will consist of weddings, events, business functions, networking, continuing day-to-day business operations. And through it all I still must put time aside for me. Regardless of what is going on, always make time for self. You only have one life and as I always say you can't continue to be everything to everybody while not taking care of you first.

Summer should be a time of exhaling. Letting go of all the responsibilities months prior. As a child growing-up didn't you look forward to summertime? Why stop now as an adult? Close your eyes and let's experience the goodness of summer... Take a deep breath while I'll take you on a brief vacation to experience the goodness of summertime. Smell the fresh air, have a nice cold glass of lemonade, put your feet-up reading a good book, sitting out by the pool, placing your feet in the cool ocean, running along the beach with the wind  flowing through your hair, having a picnic at the park with someone special, or just taking a scenic drive. It's just that simple... "ENJOY LIFE".  ENJOY your surroundings, ENJOY the simple things, ENJOY family, ENJOY friends, ENJOY breathing tranquility, ENJOY time alone. If you're not enjoying life than there's no time like the present to make a change.

First Step: Make a list of what you desire to change and post it in a place you can see it clearly each & everyday. Second Step: Take Action...Viewing the list everyday makes you accountable for what you place in the universe. Third Step: Go for it... As you put changes into action, make sure to have positive people in your world along the way. Making a change just may be to eliminate those who really don't have your best interest at heart. I call them pity party monsters.

drezrehersal Tip... If you feel you're loosing yourself in day-to-day responsibilities. Just remember to live for today. For tomorrow will take care of itself. Keep this one word in mind when things get bumpy "ENJOY". Life will be more blissful if you keep this in mind. No one can create your happiness, but you. Live in the moment and just enjoy what god desires you to have. A life of abundance. Don't get discourage if you don't see immediate changes. Having faith is essential. Faith is confidence in that we  hope for and assurance about what we do not see. ~Hebrews 11.1 NIV

To recommendations to "ENJOY" this Summer.

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.

DOONEY & BOURKE OUTLET EXCLUSIVE

June Sale offer valid from 06-01-11 to 06-30-11.
 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.



I Remember Medrezrehersal 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".



Disclaimer: The Dooney & Bourke June Specials
are only available at their outlet stores. Product
available while supplies last. * The Camarillo Outlet doesn't
have a Dooney & Bourke store.

drezrehersal Tip...6 Lifestyle Design Ideas For Your Wedding

drezrehersal Tip… A stunning way to add an identity to your ceremony & reception décor is to look at it as if it was your home. When planning for your wedding, think beyond the usual décor of floral centerpieces. Bring in added touches that will represent an experience & relaxing lifestyle for you & your guests.


Tip #2  Fresh florals are important for your wedding, but not necessary to place on every reception table. A stunning décor look is alternating centerpieces on reception tables. Have your florist place arrangements in other items besides glass vases. If you prefer vases, switch up sizes and styles, using translucent colors. Look into adding a colored floral piece around the vase, creating a completely different centerpiece. Other options are boxes. Small to large jewelry cases also work well. Lastly, a few battery-operated lamps placed on the table with fresh floral décor wrapped around the neck or the base of the lamp is floral fabulous at its best.

GLAM'ONDAY ALERT...WEEK #2 with SALLY HANSEN CRACKLE OVERCOAT POLISH


As promised it's week two & we're still testing out different color combinations with Sally Hansen new crackle nail polish. Last week I tested the crackle overcoat polish on my toes, so this week I'm feeling flirty & given attention to my nails. We'll I actually pampered myself last week, but you get to see the results this week.

How Does It Look?
Week #2 Tested w/ Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat
Fractured Foil underneath VIP PINK
Sally Hansen crackle overcoat polish was all the RAVE on Memorial Day. It took me a little time to get use too, until the compliments started rolling in. I quickly said to myself Sally Hansen may have something here. A glamnista is always prepared wherever she goes with an emergency style kit. I'll explain the details of an emergency style kit at a later date, now back to memorial day and the rave reviews. After family, friends, even future glamnista's (little girls) Ooh & Aah over the design, they all ASK where can we get the crackle polish? You're in luck I have some samples you all can try out. So we get a manicure-pedicure table going & went to town testing out colors. I must say it was pretty funny to see everyone argue over certain colors; hearing them say don't copy me. Hmmm where might have they heard that saying before? LOL.  The guys felt a little ignored that the ladies were all hovering over the mani-pedi table. Get a group of girls together where being glam is the topic, yes you loose our attention for a hour or two. Remember to check back next week for my week three design.  Remember we want to hear from you if you have purchased the crackle overcoat polish or had your manicurist apply for you. So, please leave your comments on the below link.



drezrehersal Tip...Keep it simple for the best results. For the future glaminista's (little girls) a precious mommy & me time is let your daughter have a variety of solid base coats on each nail, then placing a subtle Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat on top.


Until next time live FABULOUS...

GLAM'ONDAY ALERT...FUN & FLIRTY SUMMER with SALLY HANSEN


Summer is here and its time to get flirty with Sally Hansen new polish~Crackle Overcoat. OK this is not just any polish, but a polish for a girl who isn't afraid of receiving a little attention to be noticed. Summer time should be about fun, traveling, hitting the beach and we can't forget all the BBQ's you'll be attending. We all know what gets noticed the most next to a rocking bikini? Your nails & feet. A good mani-pedi is key for summer so let's get this summer crackling right.

Being a Go-to-Girl has its privileges. I received recently all 8 of Sally Hansen new addition to the well know beauty line "Crackle Overcoat". Sally Hansen as what is now the number one brand of nail care.

Sally Hansen~Fuchsia Shock
SKU #4169-04
What is Crackle Overcoat? Crackle Overcoat you apply one thin or thick coat over a solid nail color and within 60 seconds you have a very unique design. Having your own unique style set's you apart~ Never be a Carbon Copy walk in your own shoes creating your own style. Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat does just that...Application Tips: Do not apply to bare nails. Do not leave the bottle open, close tightly when not in use. Allow it to dry and seal with any Sally Hansen top coat. Each nail turns out completely different once the crackle overcoat sets in. Normally I'm not a big fan of polish on my nails, it truly depends on my mood & style. I like to keep it simple& chic on most occasions. When I want to feel flirty I'll turn it up notch and summer time brings on the fun & flirty.




Kimberly Tested with
Fractured Foil ~SKU169-03 , underneath color
Sally Hansen VIP Pink

Crackle Overcoat comes in 8 different shades which can be paired with any nail color. From vintage purple to mature metallic's, you can create a unique mosaic design that’s modern and sophisticated. I test it out on my toes using the fractured foil over Sally Hansen VIP Pink. I'm all about the toes and love to wear peek a boo sling back, sandals, flip flops whenever possible. You know what that means summer watch out. I guaranteed you anyone in your circle will be asking you. WOW let me see your hands. At first glance I must say it does look like that time to hit the nail salon. Getting up-close & personal an amazing look you want to rock all summer long.


 Over the month of June,  I'll share images & different looks that we tested out and provide you my tips on getting the best style. I have also shared some samples with a few of my girls and look forward to seeing what unique styles they came up with. We definitely want to hear from you if purchased and tried the new crackle overcoat. So please share your story & images with us.

  drezrehersal Tip... The crackle overcoat may not be the best choice if you work in the corporate sector. However, works well for the weekend when you can relax and let go.

Throughout Leslie's career shes been constantly asked: “Is there a perfect T-shirt?” Her answer was always, “There is, but they are very expensive.” Believing that the perfect layering tee doesn’t have to be expensive or high-maintenance, she teamed up with Fruit of the Loom to create her new label.

Available exclusively at Bloomingdale's, the collection features 3 silhouettes that come in one package: the racer back, the tank, and the T-shirt.

Exclusively at Bloomingdale's
You’ll definitely want to score your own, so come join us at Bloomingdale's Century City this Thursday. Not only will Leslie Fremar be on-site, we’ll have hors d’oeuvres, music, and more! Plus, the first 50 shoppers who buy a package of 3 tees for $40 at the event, will receive a GLAMOUR tote bag!

drezrehersal Tip... To look fashionably fabulous, doesn't take a whole lot of effort. Looking beautiful in just a "TEE"  says something without actually saying anything at all.


Until next time live FABULOUS...
