It’s no secret that I’m a fan of The Braxtons and especially Tamar.  Their sister dynamic reminds me of my own family with the laughs and craziness!  I’m also the youngest child and can relate to Tamar in the perspective of  being outspoken, fashionable, and loving everyone unconditionally.

I was excited to receive items from the Tamar collection and eager to share with my audience.  The two pieces shipped included the Vegan Leather Pants and Striped Shadow Skirt.  Both items are simply gorgeous and very well-made for all body types.

Striped Shadow Skirt

For styling purposes, the striped shadow skirt can be worn with a blouse or jacket to dinner, church, or brunch. The vegan leather pants are perfect for a girl’s night out and perfect in terms of size and length.

I decided to pair the skirt with teal accessories for a fresh summer look; and wear a white jacket with the pants for a sophisticated color combination.

PANDORA Store Re-Opening – Art of You Campaign

On Saturday, June 20, 2015 I was invited to take part in the grand re-opening event for PANDORA Towson Town Center.  The event revealed their new store design which complimented the campaign, “Art of You.”

IMG_4157

PANDORA’s “Art of You” campaign invites consumers to embrace the self-creator within and tell their unique life story.  I was excited to attend the event because I am collector of PANDORA bracelets and charms.  My bracelet (s) allow me to wear those memories daily.  I also like the quality of their jewelry ranging from silver, gold, and diamond.

IMG_4160

The event was also very informative.  I received a store tour, viewed jewelry, and learned more about the company’s overall philsophy.  Store associate (whose name was also Kim) shared their most popular ring this season due to Selena Gomez’s tweet:

Need the princess pandora ring in my life

B22pbuaIQAEZ7U8I could not visit the PANDORA store without making a purchase for myself.  I decided upon the Faith, Hope, and Love charm to compliment my silver bracelet.  This particular charm’s symbolic to my life; Faith and Hope for all things possible while continuing to walk in a state of Love!
