This past year I find many of my favorite memories seem to include a particular group of artists, over and over again. This group of artists are talented, passionate, giving, knowledgeable, inspiring, and has etched a huge name in the forefront of the makeup industry. They are known as The Powder Group and they are headed up by founder Michael DeVellis with phenomenal talent James Vincent, right by his side. I am proud to once again be highlighted as a presenter for them at The LA Makeup Show February 28th and March 1st!

We invite you to join us for 2 days of fun in warm and sunny Los Angeles while networking, getting in advanced makeup education and taking in some outstanding “show specials” and deals from your favorite cosmetic lines and industry companies!

I have been fortunate enough to work with Mary Amons, founder of “Labels for Love”, a number of times  this past year and let there be no doubt, she proves a mother of five can make her marks in the fashion industry! Mary has the heart, the wit, and the style to make a charity like Labels for Love succeed and she has no shortage of industry friends who will support her cause.

I am so excited to announce her event happening this January 14th at the Washington D.C. Mayflower Renaissance Hotel featuring designer clothes from Lela Rose’s Spring 2010 collection and the man who brought the original hairstyles to the New York Fashion Week  runway for this show:  one of my favs, Ted Gibson and team!  Christian Dior’s National Beauty team will be backstage along side creating a complimentary look for the show featuring T.H.E. Artist Agency models.

This is a can’t miss event to benefit The Center for Heart, Lung, and Kidney Diseases at Children’s National Medical Center. It is already being touted as an “An exclusive evening of Fashion, Art and Philanthropy!” and I know it will live up to the hype.  I look forward to seeing you there!
