I ordered a bunch of samples this week for my Stella & Dot biz. I am really excited to get them. When I get a Stella & Dot box, it is like getting a present, seriously. The jewels are business tools of course, but being that I am my own walking commercial, it behooves me to get glammed up to go about my daily business.

The good news is, having to get "dressed" has gotten me out of my yoga pants rut. I was getting way to comfortable in yoga pants and flip flops. I always do my hair and make up, but now I have to wear a good top too, to show off the jewels.

Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...
