Fashion Friday: MomFashion On The Go From Airplane Restroom

Good Morning all! Today I am coming to you live and totally down-to-earth with my Friday Fashion: MomFashion On The Go From The Airplane Restroom. Really!

So like a lot of you, I am a multi-tasker who thrives when I am fulfilling deadlines, juggling my family and meeting commitments.

Last night was no exception, my children and husband were in the Christmas Musical which was so phenomenal. And I was juggling back and forth between the children, a Coach's meeting and then it was home to get some MomBlogger work done, pack for the weekend to see my Carolina Mama and finally get a little rest.

Success - I got it all done. I stayed up too late. SO I found myself at the airport this mrorning with plenty of time for Starbucks and getting a little UNC memorbilia for my Mom and Sister.

One thing - I didn't [gasp!] have on a smidge of makeup. Yikes!

So I did what MomBlogger and Media Moms do - I worked on the go. Traveling Mamas you know. So today I put my Traveling Mama and Friday Fashion advice together on the go for you in video.

... from the Airplane Restroom. :) A new kind of Mile High Club. MomFashion Mile High MakeUp Club. What do you say Moms?! It really works for me.

Here are my quick and easy and oh so effective Make Up Tips from 14,000 feet in the air in route to O'Hare on a Friday morning.




What are your go to MomFashion Tips?! Thanks for sharing!

Warmly, Carolina Mama

Sweet Carolina Girl - Miss USA Kristen Dalton 2009



Sweet Carolina Girl Kristen Dalton was named the Miss USA 2009 Beauty Queen. Home state girl makes good - here's what home has to say.
Miss USA 2009

Everyone is proud of Kristen and her accomplishment and we know she will serve well. After all, look at the gorgeous Carolina Tar Heel Blue Gown choice. You know, it's the big things that matter.

In all seriousness, no one should be eliminated for her conservative opinion. We all know if Miss California had answered with a liberal response to gay marriage, she would not have been voted against. She knows she's beautiful and can hold her head high for having beliefs and standing up for them. That's a beautiful thing.

Really, as we say here in the motherland, who does Perez Hilton think he is. He could stand to grow a few worthwhile convictions himself.

Nonetheless, back to the fanfare, and a huge Congratulations to the very talented Miss USA 2009 Kristen Dalton!

Any thoughts you'd like to share on this kind of judging?

Hooked On Fitness Rocks!


As Mountain Man said today, "It's Valentine's Eve!" How sweet is that!? Love him. We're excited to be going to a Valentine's Dinner this evening - you know, dress up, have a babysitter that the Tigers love, so they're happy at home. We're happy out together. I simply cannot wait. This morning I woke up to a gorgeous arrangement of Roses to kick off the Weekend.

Does anyone else feel like "where is this year going?" Is it truly Valentine's? One of our big things this year is to refocus on family fitness. Of course, Mountain Man and I enjoy fitness and we want to make our health a family priority even more than ever. We want to continue to make fitness a part of our lifestyle.

Have you see Smooth Fitness? Look what I found a company that delivers a treadmill, their Smooth 9.35HR Treadmill, free! And they have a two year labor warranty. Okay, that's a wow factor and then look at this Smooth Agile DMT X2 and these lovely trainers are on-sale today! Mountain Man, I'll take one of each. :)

I loved having a treadmill at home. It was always there just waiting for me. And when I didn't feel like loading up the children to go work out or I didn't want to weather the weather, there was my lovely treadmill waiting for me to give it a ride. And I did. It was a great workout and quick and efficient.

Do you like treadmills or elliptical machines? I like both. However, since I love jogging, the treadmill is my friend! :) Check out other Hooked on Friday here.

Saturday Health and Beauty Goodness


Since the entire country is experiencing 'frigid' temperatures and all manner of Winter madness, I thought it might brighten our Saturday to talk about Health and Beauty. Want Health and Beauty for the whole family all in one place, or are you wanting Bath and Body products.

With 8 degrees the past two nights and the rest of the country freezing as well, I thought I would pass on this secret, the Clinique Deep Comfort Body Butter.

As former Estee Lauder manager, I can tell you this butter is to die for especially in the middle of winter. And is it working? ? ;)

What do you use to clear away the doldrums during Winter?
