Blue Hair and a 24-Book Project for our October Birthdays

So . . .

This is what I looked like on my birthday. Not to begin with, of course, but after my friend Christy Fike got hold of me with her red lipstick and blue wig. The idea to add the tiara was hers, too, but I borrowed it from my girls. (Thanks, Nana! It came in handy!) The necklace was a gift from the husband and kiddos thanks to my friend Erin Dorn who came over with a few Noonday Collection pieces.

When it comes to jewelry, I pretty much only wear the handmade kind--and I especially love jewelry made from upcycled materials by resourceful artisans who are living in impoverished areas.

Check out all the beautiful jewelry and accessories at http://erindorn.noondaycollection.com/, and if you find a gift for yourself or a friend today or tomorrow, enter Erin Dorn as the Ambassador and Lori Todd as the Trunk Show Name, and a percentage of total sales will go toward a free gift for the birthday girl. :0)

Thank you for loving me and loving the beautiful artisans who make these lovely creations!!!
