Day 21 & 22 – A recipe & A website


Live Inspired,

Hide your straps!

Last Fall, on a Sunday afternoon, before heading back to the windy south, my hubby and I went to a new mall north of Calgary. It’s called Cross Iron Mills and is a beautiful indoor mall. I LOVED the western inspired aspects that parts of the shopping center featured – I posted pictures in my Copper West blog entry.

I went into the mall needing nothing and telling myself that I was going to spend NOTHING! Well…I really need to learn the lesson of not even going into a store or mall, at that, to accomplish this.

As we explored the offering of stores, we came to a "As Seen on TV" store called Showcase. Inside, I spotted something that has intrigued me on TV for quite some time.

The BRA clip!!

I believe it’s typically been advertised for $19.99 for a box of 12 and if you’re one of the "lucky" first ___ callers – you could get 2 boxes for the price of one.

OH – how I love marketing!!

Well…it was my LUCKY day! The store was featuring this item as a Door Buster for $5!! That’s right – one $5 bill. I was always too cheap to order them off the TV, since I knew I would only need 1 – not 12. SO of course I had to pick up 2 boxes! He he… WHAT on earth was I going to do with 24 Bra Clips you ask? My husband was asking the same question!

Give them away!

I’ve used mine a couple times now, to hide my straps while wearing a dress and sleeveless top. Being honest – they are a bit challenging to get on, but serve their purpose very effectively when wearing them.

I was doing some spring cleaning tonight, came across my purchases, and realized that I still hadn’t given away these lovely inventions!! With summer right around the corner – I want them to leave my house and arrive in your hot hands.

While looking for a web link for you to learn more about them – I’ve discovered that the Smart Bra Clip is now replaced with new round ones in the market – but I still want to pay it forward.

WHO would like one?

Fashion Show

A year ago I was learning everything I could about producing a Fashion Show. I wanted Copper West (site still has last years info - we’re relaunching with revised concept shortly!) to feature one that would showcase the exhibitors clothing and accessories! This was one of the first YouTube.com videos I watched – I was speechless and fell in love instantly, because:

1) It featured the song AMAZING (my favorite word – I’m sure you couldn’t tell) that I first heard that day.
2) It has a Christmas theme (my favorite holiday).
3) And it was SO classy & motivating!! The models and costumes were gorgeous.

I LOVE everything about it! I feel sexy every time I watch it and when I hear the song it brings back the same feeling .

This video sends shivers through me. I love the detail in the costumes that Victoria Secret’s creative team designed and the Christmas Tree…I’m infatuated with that the tree they created in the background as decor.

I’ve literally watched this video over and over!

The song “Amazing” by Seal – is simply amazing. Original response, I realize. The actual lyrics may

 As you listen to the song while watching the fashion show, you may experience different emotions as music touches people differently. I mentioned to a friend of mine that I loved this song and she said well you know what it’s about right. I said I have made my own interpretation to the line, “Everyone says you’re amazing now that you’re clean”. I do believe that it reflects on dealing with substance abuse. However, I am just fine with that. If this beautifully sung song can empower people to overcome the challenges they’re experiencing – that’s fantastic. We are all touched by people experiencing unique obstacles in their life.  I trust you’ll continue being “friends” with those individuals and encourage them with your positive energy.

There is nothing more phenomenal than being told “You’re Amazing”!

I challenge you to empower someone today with your honest, heart felt words of affirmation!

I’m blessed to have each of you following my blog. You are truly amazing and I would tell that to your face if I saw you, with my bubbly, honest personality.
