LOVING THESE

I'm SO lovin these right now!

Get Excited!

14 days & counting!

Glamour at any size!

In the shoot for the magazine's latest issue, seven plus-sized models, include Lizzie Miller, pose nude, proving that beauty really does come in all shapes and sizes. "I was just shocked and amazed and overjoyed at the reaction that Lizzie's picture got," said Lieve on The Ellen Degeneres Show, who mentioned that readers "seemed like they were starved for any kind of image that in any way looked like what they saw when they looked in the mirror. We thought why not do more?" It looks like Glamour is setting the ball rolling; leading the way for the inclusion of more realistic-looking women in fashion.

What do yall think of this picture? I would love to dish about what you think this picture represents. Do share your opinion!

Bow Head

The Cutest Bow Head I've Ever Seen!!!

I took some old necklaces that were made for me a lifetime ago....I liked them, but was ready for a change!

Fun with Holly

My friend Holly is one of those kindred spirit kind of friends. She's a self proclaimed gypsy! She is a free spirit, laid back, very giving and the most talented person I know! Holly and I share a lot of the same passions and have lots in common; including dating the same guy! We were destined to be friends. We had no less than 5 different people telling us that we just HAD to meet each other, because everyone could tell that our personalities would automatically click. Sarah planned our initial hook-up (girls night at Gloria's) and from the moment we said, So glad to finally meet you, we've been the greatest of friends!

She is a fabulous hair dresser and owns her own business making wonderful jewelry & accessories. Check out her website here. Last week we were hanging out and I got a creative streak in me (doesn't happen very often) and so we busted out the beads and went to town making jewelry!

Holly showing off the Yellow Rose of TX necklace she just made.

This is all ONE bracelet. OH MY GOSH, I love it!

The necklace I made. I was inspired by Ryan's Moroccan theme!

It's amazing after several pieces of greasy pepperoni pizza & some chardonnay what you can accomplish in a nights work!!

PamBee

What is a PamBee? A PamBee is:
...a luxurious blanket with a soft, suede-like lining

"You know where it has been."

...an inflatable contoured pillow that inflates with a few quick puffs, or insert your own pillow into the case. No more relying on pillows that aren't always available

...a matching eyemask with adjustable straps to get that perfect fit.

Shut out the light and get great shut-eye.

The blanket and eyemask fit ingeniously into the pillowcase.... AND...it all folds compact (about the size of a laptop) that can fit easily in a carry-on, tote, or computer bag.(and it's all machine washable, too!)

My very sweet (and super funny) friend Pam B. is the mastermind of this wonderful concept! She has been a flight attendant for 12 years and sees on a daily basis the first hand need for a product like this. A PamBee would be an awesome gift for anyone who travels! I've featured my 2 favorite prints on the side bar.

Check out her website HERE for more details and list of stores.

I got to hang out with my super sweet friend Holly, and "help"
