Food for Thought

I have been blessed to meet some amazing, industry leaders in fashion and beauty over the years. Some clients, co-workers, and others friends. Beauty and Fashion can be a harsh reality, even mean-spirited at times. I hang onto the precious few, the movers and shakers who make a positive impact. The people that make beauty fun, maintaining dignity, savvy and humor. They make all the difference. I am proud of their huge accomplishments. When I need some beauty inspiration, the latest trends, I turn to the leaders for tips. I am inspired and rejuvenated all over again. There are too many to name and thank. Abby G., Amy F., Gwen F., Tim Q., Celine K., Sarah H.B., Emily S., Beth D. They know who they are. I am proud to call them colleagues and friends. They've allowed us to dream big, aim high, do better, be smarter, and set stellar examples for the next generation of Fashionistas. Beauty may fade, but true beauty never burns out.


Us Weekly's Gwen Flamberg

Ms. Gwen Flamberg, Beauty Director at Us Weekly, was recently featured on Vh1's Morning Buzz Live, talking about 'Super foods.' I am a true believer in maintaining a healthy lifestyle from the inside, out. What you put in your body matters. Gwen talks about some yummy Superfoods, packed with anti-oxidants, anxiety releasers and lots of colorful delights. Detox the body, replenish with healthy alternatives and smile straight from the heart. Try it, trust me others will smile right back. Happiness and confidence are pretty & infectious. Glowing skin, gorgeous hair, and a smile light up any room.

CKPR Public Relations



Sugar and Spice

I usually stick to beauty posts, but my gorgeous, sexy, smart, PR maven friend at fab. Alison Brod Public Relations sent me Hanky Panky panties and I couldn't resist. I've been hearing rave reviews about them. (My model friend said, "are you kidding, they are awesome? That's all I wear.") Cheeky, cute, funky, fun, sexy and super comfy. They are only panties you will ever need. Worn by just about every female celebrity on the planet from Cameron, to Julia Roberts, Cher, Jessica Simpson, Marisa Tomei, and Jennifer Aniston. The list goes on. Once you go Hanky apparently, you never go back. I'm a fan of the leopard boyshort myself. They feel light, fresh and a little bit saucy. The ultimate in affordable, fine lingerie. They feel like a million bucks, no tugs, no lines, no pulling. There's a style for everyone. The thong is a popular, best-seller. The neutral colors are perfect for photo shoots, runway shows and under light clothing. HankyPanky.com is featuring a red, white and blue theme for the fourth. Right on time for the holidays, put some spark in your life. Hanky Panky has a personalized line (great for brides & the bridal party) and a smart, dollar point program. For every dollar spent, you get a point. When you accrue 250 points you get a $25.00 coupon towards a new pair. How fabulously swank is that?! Look & feel comfy in your intimates, just like a movie star. Treat yourself to a pair.
