ChicMix Weekend Recap

Happy New Year. Well the holidays are over and after a much needed break to recuperate from the accident, finish client projects, and get things in order here at Chicole::Intermixed, we have so many things to share with you.

::
Website. The websites for Chicole::Intermixed and the Makeup Art & Details specialty division, Bridal Beauty by Blush, are being fine tuned for your ultimate experience. We are excited for their debut. Stay tuned.

Expressions. We finished addressing some beautiful holiday and New year’s cards for a few clients. Now is the time to stock up on your holiday greetings for 2009. At most retail and discount places they are 50-85%. It’s also the time to purchase your custom or personalized stationery. It’s not luxe, it’s a necessity! Personalized stationery really sets your thoughts and correspondence apart. Don’t just buy and admire it, use it!

Educational Consulting. We also worked with an individual to create a unique specialized degree program. Although we can’t share too many details just yet, we can say, this degree will definitely increase the personal and professional value of students who receive it.

New Year, New You Vision Boards. We’re sure many of you created New Year’s Resolutions. Why not take it a step further and actually visualize your goals. Create a Vision Board. You can either create one the old school way by scouring and cutting up magazines and newspapers to find the images that represent your goals and ambitions. You can also do it new school and just cut and paste pictures found in your personal files or online into a word document or other publishing software. Either way you go, you will end up with a visual representation of your goals. Seeing it everyday will surely motivate and hold you accountable. Seeing is believing, right?

Financial Accountability. For many, finances are somewhere on the list of resolutions or goals for 2009. To add a little bit of perspective, we must share this story from Fabulously Broke in the City with you. It is truly a story of what not to do in 2009. If you are blessed with a new job or increase in cash flow this year, please do NOT follow this couple’s example:

Story of the Idiot and his Wife, Part I
Story of the Idiot and his Wife, Part II

We confirmed several more wedding parties for Makeup Art & Details’ bridal specialty division, Blush. We can’t wait to start creating makeup looks for these lovely brides and their bridal parties.
