The Language of Six Word Sentences.
I now commit myself to six-speak.
It began with the New Yorker. They are smart creative people there. They created six word memoir contests. These memoirs instantly became wildly popular. Plumbers, preachers, and many others participated. So much so fast was unexpected. The first day their server crashed.
I love the idea, don’t you? Why not try it yourself today? Speak in sixes if you dare. Post it on our Facebook Page. The top three get fifty bucks. That’s fifty dollars’ worth of jewels. The rest get who knows what. Fun, challenges, chuckles, jewels, and games.
My favorite from the New Yorker? It made me laugh out loud.
A very witty plumber wrote it. “Fix a toilet, get paid crap.”Reading it always gets me laughing.
It’s complete thoughts we’re looking for.
Am I smart enough to understand?
I am smart enough to understand.
Yes, I’m game enough to play.
Being “out there” is such fun!
It’s the Show-Off color of summer. Tans, attitudes, and jewelry are all enhanced by wearing white. But wearing it requires some level of responsibility. One drop of red wine or a not-so-clean park bench and there goes your pristine whites.
Plan to replace your white basics every season: t-shirts, pants, shorts, shirts etc. If you want to look really crisp and fresh in white, this is the way to do it. Wear and tear and washing take their toll on pure white.
Make sure you have a fully lined t-shirt bra to wear under ALL white tops. Bras, panties and shapewear should be nude. White underwear will show through when worn under white (or any light colors).
With white pants, skirts and dresses make sure the fabric is thick enough that the pockets or your underwear do not show through. Linings are not the answer. Most lining fabrics are man-made nylons and polyesters that do not breathe; wearing them in summer is like sweating in a plastic bag

Ditto. Ditto. Ditto. Is everything starting to look the same to you this holiday season? Maybe it’s time for something that breaks out of the pattern of sameness. Jewels offer an INSTANT change in attitude. But you have to WEAR them to get the benefit! Checkout some of my latest. They’re all made with love and re-invention fuel!
