Fashion Show for Monkee's Part II

It was an honor to be asked to model for the new Monkee's of Johnson City yesterday. The audience included beautiful ladies of all ages! I am happy to share these inspiring photos with you.


























This colorful lunch was served as we modeled all the new fabulous styles.


I hope to see you at the Grand Opening of Monkee's In Johnson City!



Fashion Show for Monkees!

We are so excited to have a fabulous new store here in Johnson City! Monkees will celebrate its grand opening on the 15th of August. Yesterday we got a preview of the wonderful things to come in a fashion show at the Blackthorn Club.



My beautiful friend Krista Wharton is the owner of Monkee's of Johnson City.



The guests will be arriving soon!



In the dressing room, we are all getting excited for the show to begin!




Krista has chosen a wide variety of clothing and accessories for the store so that there is something for women of all ages and style preferences.

It's showtime!




























Informal modeling is so much fun since we can interact with the people in the audience as we are showing the clothing.



















































We had such a great time presenting some of the excellent lines you will find at the new Monkee's Store

There were also beautiful and inspiring ladies in attendance, so you will get to see some of them in the next post. 

To be continued!

Keep Learning!

Have you heard the saying, “It’s what you learn after you know it all that counts”?




In high school, I convinced myself that I had to make my hair as straight as possible or else keep it very short to not look like a wild woman. So all these many years later, I was still clinging to the belief that I needed to make my hair straight.




Recently I decided to let nature take its course because our weather has been so humid it was a losing battle. The result has been that every person who knows me tells me, "Your hair looks so much better like that!" So I have surrendered my blow dryer and flat iron.



Today I am wearing a cool, comfortable casual crinkle cloth tunic from J.Jill. The perfect summer bracelet is also from J.Jill. They have some really great accessories as well as clothes! I have owned many pieces from J.Jill over the years, and I am always pleased with their well made classic styles.



Yesterday I found these Rampage sandals on the sale table at Belk. They are perfect to wear with these white jeans, which are old from Kut from the Kloth.






I often get the question, "What do you wear every day?" This is my favorite look for ease and comfort during summer. In cooler weather, I will wear this tunic with a white tank and faded jeans.



Along with my natural curls, you will also see me in brighter lipstick in the future. Being flexible enough to try something different can be so liberating! Have you changed your thinking about some long-held personal style policy recently?
