It was great meeting Tracy Reese. I was talking while I should have been smiling for the picture. I was able to ask her a few questions about how an attorney, like myself, can be of assistance to designers in the industry. However, I was most grateful for her discussion about the business of fashion and how designers have to do the foot work to improve their brand. As I embark on my own design career, it was inspirational to hear how she started and to see all she has accomplished. She continues to evolve and so does her brand. Don’t be afraid to evolve as you fulfill your dreams. Cheers to life & living your dreams.

The First Lady unveiled the newly renovated dining room at the White House, adding a dash of modern decor. This is the first time a First Lady has introduced 20th Century art to the White House. Highlighting this great room are several modern pieces by American artists and artisans. One particular piece that Flotus spoke of is by Alma Thomas. She is the first African-American female to have her art shown in the White House. The piece chosen is called Resurrection, which is fitting wouldn’t you say. Kudos to Flotus for inspiring us to uplift and support other women as you have here.

Ms. Thomas attended Howard University in 1921 and earned her BS in Fine Arts in 1924. She was the first graduate from the university fine art program. In 1934, she earned her Masters in Art Education from Columbia University. An Expressionist painter and art educator, she was the first African-American woman to have a solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, and within the same year an exhibition was also held at the Corcoran Gallery of Art in 1972.
She tried a new kind of painting. Painting everything she saw in her garden. She watched the changes her garden went through. That influenced the ways she could change her paintings, to be more like that fascinating world she saw outside her Washington D.C. window.
“I got some watercolors and some crayons, and I began dabbling,” she said. “Little dabs of color that spread out very free…that’s how it all began. And every morning since then, the wind has given me new colors through the windowpanes.” I think Ms. Thomas would be happy to know that her happy garden is sitting in the White House Dining Room.
May the wind bring you new colors everyday, as it did Ms. Thomas …
Dedicated to Vanessa and all the women that support and uplift one another.

Tune in to PBS October 28th to learn more about Women In Business . A documentary series showcasing successful women in different professions, like Ursula Burns . If you are looking for inspiration and motivation to continue working toward your own goals, these women could serve as encouragement!
Cheers to staying the course.
“I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I’ve become arrogant, but simply because I reached a point in my life where I do not want to waste more time with what displeases me or hurts me. I have no patience for cynicism, excessive criticism and demands of any nature. I lost the will to please those who do not like me, to love those who do not love me and to smile at those who do not want to smile at me. I no longer spend a single minute on those who lie or want to manipulate. I decided not to coexist anymore with pretense, hypocrisy, dishonesty and cheap praise. I do not tolerate selective erudition nor academic arrogance. I do not adjust either to popular gossiping. I hate conflict and comparisons. I believe in a world of opposites and that’s why I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities. In friendship I dislike the lack of loyalty and betrayal. I do not get along with those who do not know how to give a compliment or a word of encouragement. Exaggerations bore me and I have difficulty accepting those who do not like animals. And on top of everything I have no patience for anyone who does not deserve my patience.” – Meryl Streep
Amen Sister! My Mom sent this to me and it was posted on Facebook by a friend. It sums up how I feel about situations and people in my life!
Cheers to not giving undeserving people your time, space, peace and happiness!
