Victoria Secret Fashion Show 2013

I seem to work this show every other year for some reason. It was fun like all the other times. One good thing about this show is that even though we have to dress the models fast, because the pose and prance and extra stuff the models do on the runway, much more playful than the fashion week shows, we have a bit more time in between changes. 

I did not see Taylor Swift at all, but at the end of the night I did see Adam Levine with his fiance, model Behati Persloo. Someone asked Adam for his picture, he did not feel inclined to want to take pictures. I did not care much as I am not that big of a fan, lol!

The show will air December 10th on CBS, don't know the time, but you an check your local listings.

I dressed Karlie for the show and thought this  look was more psychedelic 60's than British invasion.

Word of The Week

ONENESS 

I am grateful to begin my day hearing the still, small voice of God reveal: "You are loved and supported," no matter the story of lack I tell myself. The Spirit of God invites me to broaden my prayers: join with others in prayer, named and unnamed; pray for and with other children of God for their desired good, too. See these wonderful individuals receiving the desires of their hearts. Rejoice for them, and bless them with love and joy for answered prayer.

 

By becoming more aware of our oneness with God, and with our brothers and sisters in spirit, we all receive overflowing good. Today I affirm and acknowledge there is only abundance at work for us all; I am grateful for my ever-unfolding realization that there is only one power and one presence at work in all of our lives: God, the good.

 

Affirm: With God ALL things are possible!

Blessings, thanks and grattitude to all of our veterans and those currently serving in our military.

Word of The Week

Divine Plan

I know, deep within, that I am required and vital to the Universe, but sometimes this concept is so beyond my understanding. Could it be?  I am willing to understand and I am open to the inner knowingness. In the quiet, the still small voice speaks: "My plan is unfolding perfectly. Without you, the Universe does not evolve in the same way.  You can't not follow my path.  There are no mistakes.  Everything is in Divine Order.  Yes, like with a GPS, sometimes it is necessary to recalculate a course of action, but you are flexible and therefore, you can handle that!  So relax, and breathe in and out.... The truth is that the Divine Plan is continuously unfolding and the Universe is evolving perfectly because of who you are and how you show up.  Accept this truth and get on with doing what you came to this planet to do:  be the best you, you can be!"

AFFIRM: I know what to do, and how to do it.  Thank You God!

Eye Candy

I decided to step away from the male model eye candy for this month...ok, I stepped away from the male models becasue I have not come across one that I found interesting enough to feature so I decided to look to some sports figures.

This months eye candy is Carolina Panthers,  quarterback, Cameron Jerrell Newton.  Born May 11, 1989, 6'5", 245 pounds, Heisman trophy winner and first round draft pick out of Auburn in 2011. I'm not even a Panthers fan ( Miami Dolphins all day for me!), but I like Cam Newtons smile and how nice and big he is, but so young, yikes!  Enjoy!
