Karla's OPI factory adventure! Oh so proud of her!!

Hi Everyone.

Just wanted to stop in and tell you all how extremely proud I am of a very special friend.  Her name is Karla Sorta and she is a very talented young lady with a tremendous passion for nail art.  She recently was invited to tour the OPI factory. Yes...OPI as in Nail Polish... who doesn’t like OPI???  Can you say.."Jealous"!

Check out the website and read her amazing story as she shares about her struggles with Thyroid Cancer and her crazy new obsession with Nail Art. And I'm sure we would all agree that the best part of the whole article was hearing all the FREE OPI stuff she got...WOW, jealous..again!! LOL
She's a phenomenal young woman with endless possibilities!  And I know one day…all her dreams and aspirations will come true. And....just maybe I'll get to be honored by having my nails done by her too!

Congratulations Karla!…You deserve this and so much more.  May your future be as bright as you!!


Check out her all her fabulous work..

Love Jewelry??? Love Designer Brands???

Well....so do I,

So beside my many other joys in life....Jewelry takes a special place in my heart...Knockoff's are still my number one in "costume jewelry".  I know it's cheesy but since times are tough and finances are low, why not still look your best or at least try at half the cost? 

In the process of starting a lil side business to sell designer knockoff jewelry.  Gorgeous stuff with great prices! I'll post pictures as soon as we get our inventory in! I'll let everyone know when our first Jewelry party will be.  

We are planning on teaming up with Thirty-One Purse!  If you don't know what that it, check it out, here's the link  http://www.thirtyonegifts.com/  They have adorable monogramed bags and great storage bags too! I've already bought my first one and I love it!

So Excited...!!! Hope you can all make it.  If you have any special requests on a particular designer piece, please don't hesitate to let me know!

Thanks and tty all soon!!
