SOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo wish I were there! I'm sure the lucky attendees will swarm your shop and realize how lucky they are to have the chance to buy and wear such lovely goods. Please report back on Monday, Kimberly!
Love, Kay

Thanks Kay! Wish you were here, too...you would positively LOVE the show. It was a great time, the busiest we've ever been, and thrilled that the positive response to what we're doing continues to grow. I'll be posting pics in the next couple days.
And I've added Movie Star Makeover to my "People to See" list of links on GlamAmor!
Oh, Kimberly, thank you for being so kind! I know you'll be watching TCM Sat night to see Barbara Stanwyck give Gary Cooper (and Co.) a run for their money in Ball of Fire...it's one of my favorites. The old professors are hilarious and you can really hear Bab's Brooklyn accent come to the surface. Have a lovely weekend and am so looking forward to seeing your report about the sale!
Hugs, K
