Weekend Observations: How A Simple Shirt Both Made And Broke Me

No Comments 19 May 2013

About month ago I spoke in front of a mix of clients.  I wore an outfit that I realized may not be perfect for my bod camera-wise but is still kinda cool.  The top is a black leather, peplum top.  It’s both cute and a bit of rock-n’-roll, and I’ve received quite a few compliments [...]

Weekend Observations:Damned If You Do, Damned If Don’t

1 Comment 21 April 2013

Over the past week Dove has gotten a lot of press over their new campaign, “New Beauty Sketches.”  Even we posted about it last week.  It portrays how off base women’s perceptions of their own beauty really are.  A good message I would argue. And you know when you’ve gotten some traction with an idea [...]
