My Experience at the Makeup Show in Atlanta

As someone who loves makeup, attending the Makeup Show in Atlanta was an amazing experience. The show was a paradise for makeup lovers, offering a wide variety of brands, demonstrations, and products to explore. One of the highlights of my visit was witnessing the mesmerizing demonstration by the talented Ashunta Sheriff-Kendricks. Witnessing Ashunta Sheriff-Kendricks in action was like observing poetry in motion. Her expertise and finesse transformed faces effortlessly, showcasing the power of makeup as a form of art. I was mesmerized by her techniques and inspired by her creativity, gaining valuable insights that I can't wait to incorporate into my beauty routine. 

During the show, I had a cool experience getting color-matched by an expert at Danessa Myricks Beauty. The expert was able to easily find my perfect match in no time. Now that I have the ideal shade, I am excited to include the luxurious Yummy Skin Serum Skin Tint in my spring/summer makeup routine for a flawless finish.

Exploring the vast array of products on display, I stumbled upon Janet and Jo, a non-toxic nail polish company that caught my attention. Learning about their commitment to creating safe and environmentally friendly products was both enlightening and refreshing. Their innovative approach to beauty left me eager to incorporate their nail polishes into my collection.


Overall, my time at the Makeup Show in Atlanta was nothing short of magical. From the dazzling displays of makeup products to the insightful demos and expert advice, I left feeling inspired, educated, and ready to elevate my beauty game to new heights. Can't wait for the next Makeup Show adventure!

Tretorn + MASHBURN Collaboration Announcement


Tretorn + MASHBURN have teamed up to bring a touch of southern charm to the classic Nylite tennis sneaker.
Sid Mashburn and Ann Mashburn, the Atlanta-based premier men’s and women’s destination shops, are known for offering a beautiful, cool and welcoming atmosphere full of classic essentials and hard to find pieces… a collection of Sid & Ann’s favorite objects and discoveries from all over the world. From custom suiting to their respective namesake lines, the specialty clothing brand is delighted to introduce a limited edition run of Tretorn’s classic Nylite.
The couple was inspired by familiar materials they use in other categories including chambray shirting, which led to the creation of this Tretorn + MASHBURN limited edition Nylite.
 "The Tretorn Nylite is the ultimate icon of 1970s Swedish athletica, and our perennial favorite,” note Sid and Ann, “We worked with our friends at Tretorn on this exclusive and loved the idea of a chambray for our feet — it's a natural, fresh way to wear one of our favorite shirting fabrics. It's a clean, light look, and the perfect shoes for jeans, chinos, shorts, and shirtdresses for an easy spring & summer feeling."
 
Nylite, Chambray
$75.00

200 pairs of the iconic chambray Nylite shoe will be available immediately for $75.00 at SIDMASHBURN.COM, ANNMASHBURN.COM and the brand’s shops in Atlanta and Houston.  Later roll-outs of this limited edition Tretorn + MASHBURN collection will include a sand-suede (available early summer 2014), and a grey flannel wool (early Fall 2014).

Lincoln Motor Company brings 'Hello Again' Tour to Atlanta






On Wednesday November 20th,  I had the pleasure of participating in Lincoln Motor Company's Hello Again Tour. Atlanta is the last stop on the Journey,  The Hello Again Tour was simply amazing it introduced me to local businesses around the city that I didn't know about. But First Things first when I arrived at the Hub I was greeted by Mike from Lincoln Motor Company before the tour I enjoyed the Gallery from Arts, Beats and Lyrics. I had a brief conversation with Artist Dubelyoo [Pictured Below] who had an amazing boxing display.







The 60 minute tour included: A visit to the Boxcar Grocer with a sweet sampling of local artisan tea and A tasty introduction to Bacon's Heir at Parish Foods & Goods, where I had the amazing Pork Clouds. Mike was my tour guide and we rode in style in the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid. Check out the pictures from the tour below:
