Believe it or not, I was too much of a tomboy to be a Girl Scout. Otherwise, I totally would have been a Girl Scout. Thank goodness, some things never change. Even now, the Girl Scout mission is the same - to build character, ready girls for success, and teach girls to give back. So it was so wonderful to see someone one give a little something back to young girls who have given their time and efforts to their communities. On Monday, September 27th, Circe of Alexandria Salon & Day Spa treated an Alexandria Girl Scout troop to complimentary makeovers including haircuts, makeup applications and styling lessons from the salon’s award winning staff. Salon owner, Ellen Vlasak summed it up. "This is our way of showing our appreciation for all the work these Girls Scouts have done for their community," said Vlasak. "With these make overs we hope the girls will feel as special and beautiful as we all know they are."
In addition to haircuts and makeup applications from Circe’s professional stylists, the teens will receive cupcakes from Hello Cupcake, gift bags filled with Circe products and a raffle ticket for a complimentary mother-daughter spa day.
This is a subject very close to my heart. Even though I have boys, I feel a responsibility to help young girls in the DC Metro area find their way. It's opportunities like this one that helps boost the self-esteem of young girls while helping them to build the confidence that they need to conquer the world.
My hats off to Ellen Vlasak for doing her part to help our young girls be the best that they can be.

DC FASHION WEEK 2010: Bridal Collections
DC Fashion Week 2010 started off with a bang with the addition of a Bridal Collections Show in the lineup this year. I was very happy to see this addition. There were some amazing designers showing their bridal wares including Alvin Thompson's New Couture, Leighel Desiree, Ester Hoffman and Little Flowers.
Headlining this event was the amazing bridal designer Liz Stajka of Elizabeth St. John Bridal. I adore her designs. I met Liz during Bridal Market Week earlier this year and was able to get an up close view of her fabulous designs. Each gown has its own voice and makes you feel something different about each one. She has a little something for every bride. If you can't find a gown in her collection to love, then you must be asleep.

European bra fitting salon The Full Cup is the exclusive regional carrier of the Canadian based Men’s Underwear Line – Saxx Apparel (http://www.saxxapparel.com). Saxx Apparel is comfortable, durable and fashion-conscious men’s underwear line that includes a full collection of boxer briefs, trunks, and long leg underwear. The line is available in environmentally friendly bamboo, to high quality cotton and high-performance fabrics that wick moisture, breathable, and add compression.
Now you know that I love for a man to have it going on. These boxer briefs are way sexy. Someone took the time to make long underwear sexy. Woohoo! 'Cause it gets cold around here in the winter. Saxx has patented Side Panels™ - a design innovation that prevents contact between the man’s package and his leg – helping avoid problems such as chaffing. Girls, you know how important it is for guys to take special care of his package (wink, wink). Not to mention the fact that these sexy briefs are also environmentally conscious! Hook your guy up at The Full Cup. Get to shopping!
The line is now available in both Full Cup stores (Old Town Alexandria & Virginia Beach, VA).
