The Black tie has changed...

The Black Tie has changed...

hey all,

I recently went to a Black Tie event and I was shocked!!!!
How many times WE have to tell you:
YOU are not allowed to:
Prom dresses, bridesmaid dresses (specially if they do not fit anymore), gloves on, strass (aka fake bling), tiaras, poly, jersey, sports jackets,

bobby pins showing, too much fur, shoes matching the dress,please keep them on!!!! oh mine I could on forever.

Be respectful to your host/hostess if the event says Black Tie enjoy, be grateful.
They want Black Tie for a reason so treat yourself and others, get you hair done and make up.
Cocktail dresses are allowed just be tasteful, if you have to break the rules a bit do it with confidence.
Leave the pearls at home, they are too predictable, add a broach to your hairdo or feathers.
Instead of a Little black Bag, get a clutch in a vibrant color and a good size so you can fit your necessities in there (gloss, keys, ID, crispy $100.00 bill and maybe a pressed powder for a quick touch up).
Mingle, introduce yourself, now is time to network.
Dance with the bold, the bad and ugly.
If it rains get wet.
Smile often, shake hands with confidence with both hands (president's shake).
Say hello and goodbye, always send a thank note and if you can flowers.
Leave with dignity.
Don"t drink and text, don't drink and flash...
Have some good wine and never ever drink beer.
I borrowed my dress and paid for my cab.
I went by myself and went home alone,
I had fun and can not wait for my next Black Tie.
Should I give the dress back??

Let me know,

Fabiana

CHANGES

Hey yous,

I recently move to a new state and a new city...

Changes all around and a lot evaluations in all aspects of my life.

Moving, filing, the "Art of getting rid of " !

Learning to maneuver a new culture and demographics.

Fashion recession and the lack of, disc man and Walkman, funny packs and a large

amount of black parkas...

Lower speed and not a lot thank yous.

Common denominator: All customers are the same!

The brides still annoying, the man still confused about sizes, black is the new black.

I am praying for survival...

Please feed me!

Love and change,

Fabiana

Gratitude!!!

hey all,

I know I've been away for while because of unfortunate events...
Anyhow or any who!
Whoa!!! I just finish the rush for Valentines Day and let me tell ya.
For all the woman out there you are just ungrateful!!!!
What is this exchange and return bull???? If he purchased for you keep it !!!(unless is for a smaller size and keep same style and color).
I can not say where I work but is mainly for you, and only the two of you.
If you don't wear it for him :someone else will I guarantee it!!!!
Stop with the bitching and moaning just wear it, tear it and have another glass of wine.
Don't trow a fit just play along with it, if he wants he gets it understood??
Feeling a bit insecure? Tip of the day wine and soft lights do wonders.
Black is always a great choice, don't try anything to exotic that you are not comfortable with,forget the leather and try some silk long gowns hides everything!!!!
A lot of us do not have the luxury of having a man or a buddy call so if you have yours think about it and have at all, rekindle the romance, share time together, forget the kids and get a room. If you are PMS check yourself into a hotel miss him a little. it is imperative that you do not make his life miserable just because...
Remember when you used to have sex everywhere? Well just because you a together for a long time does mean you have to set it and forget it , I know the kids, the market, the economy, blah blah...
It is time and the time is now reconnect and be happy.
Just a reminder: who does not give technical assistance loose for the better rate plan!!!!!

tell me what hapenned to you on Valentines day,
I had wine and ice cream, too tired and no man to wear my stilletos and garter belts...

Love and gratitude,
Fabiana
