The Southern Women’s Show is an annual event that takes place in Birmingham, Alabama. It’s a local tradition for women to view live shows; shop with vendors, and taste delicious southern treats.
This year, I attended the show with my mom and her two girlfriends. We had an amazing time walking the pink carpet and snapped pictures at the SWS photo-booth. Of course, we shopped at the Belk perfume booth, purchased jewelry, and tasted authentic Cajun candy.
The trade show also included live shows from The Firefighter Fashion Show Benefiting the American Cancer Society and entertainment from The Six Sliders Line Dance / Fitness Ministry.
Attendees registered for fun prizes and participated in cooking demonstrations. As stated on The Southern Women’s Show website, “the real excitement begins when you arrive!”
This fall, there’s one wardrobe staple that can be spotted everywhere from the runway to work meetings to brunch: the blazer.
Ann Taylor combines their classic, tailored aesthetic with an on-trend effortless vibe in the brand’s new blazer styles – ranging from cropped to relaxed and tweed to jacquard. Pair each topper with trendy tie sleeves, ankle pants, or chic dresses to add a polished touch to any look that transitions effortlessly from A.M. to P.M to weekend.
Carelle Fine Jewelry hosted a trunk show at Saks Fifth Avenue, Birmingham on Friday, September 30, 2017.
The collection featured unique designs; mixing high fashion with a touch of architecture. Due to its simplistic sophistication, Carelle jewelry can be worn daily and not just for special occasions.
Several of the pieces were made from precious gemstones and metals. The Carelle Fine Jewelry Trunk Show displayed structured and stackable accessories that are created for the modern woman.
Last week I attended the Konstantino Jewelry Trunk Show at Saks Fifth Avenue. The designer featured handcrafted pieces from Greece.
Each unique design showcased silver or gold metals along with luxury gems. The collection representative explained how specific pieces were created and allowed me to view the items up close.
As a style expert, the Konstantino Jewelry Collection can be paired with on-trend fashion items or classic styles and designs.
Summer has ended and the kids have headed back to school. That means it’s time to re-evaluate the household budget.
One way to increase savings is by reducing the amount of dry cleaning services. Many people are not aware that dry cleaning can be harsh, timely and expensive.
There’s a solution to this household concern. Dryel is an at-home solution that’s easy to use and convenient. This product can be picked up during your local Target run or online from Amazon for an reasonable price.
There’s several advantages to using Dryel instead of laundry services:
After a day of consignment shopping, Dryel was an easy option that removed dirt and debris from my new items. They were placed on a hanger after 15 minutes with the use of Dryel products.

I hosted a Lifestyle Segment with Talk of Alabama sharing Fashion Week 2017 Celebrity Beauty Trends. Dana Benson from The Esthetic Loft and Nicole Stephani from mybodyboop.com joined the segment to discuss the benefits and application of eyelash extensions.
This particular lifestyle segment featured products to help everyone at-home enhance their natural beauty and provide makeup tips from New York Fashion Week 2017.
According the segment a few of the beauty trends seen on the runway included metallic eye shadow (whether in cream or powder) along with illuminating or strobing the face.
Several celebrities use HD Invisible Foundation to provide an airbrushed look on-camera while reducing the appearance of pores.
The popular makeup technique of highlighting and contouring defines the cheekbones along with the use of Artis Elite Makeup Brushes to give a flawless finish.
When using Artis Elite Makeup Brushes recognize that each brush has an individual purpose and minimal product should be applied. The products presented on ABC 33/40 included:
