I'M BEAUTIFUL

every now and again,
serendipity happens.
a special occasion was about to take place,
the kind of event that deserved
a touchup on those
 stubborn grays
and i knew just the place
I'M BEAUTIFUL
betsy smith, my stylist and friend
always greets me with
a warm welcome

she listens
cosults
and delivers beauty
artistically !
a real class act.

after moments of pampering,
i noticed an advertisement
 announcing a
“spring fling”
march 12, 2014
i inquired...
it sounded divine
and i am acutely aware that

I'M BEAUTIFUL

never disappoints.

the ambiance,
the decor,
the clever quotes that adorn the walls,

the RED lipstick,

the services available,
the new locale for fashionista and stylish

 blou j boutique...

everything about it speaks
I'M BEAUTIFUL
and so the story goes...
i joined women at the so called
“spring fling”

I'M BEAUTIFUL
knows just how to 
party pretty !
after browzing and mingling 
a bit,
a mosied over to blou j
for a pair of boots

that caught my eye a week ago...
 forest green 
lace up boots that were bound
to 
adorn my feet
and refer to me as
'tres chic'.
i fell for an ivory frolic

that i just had to have
to put the fling in my spring

and the jewelry...

how will i ever decide ?

geometric shaped rings 
that flip to reveal
the appropriate word
true or false ?
to infinity and beyond ?
bracelets and bangles
bearing the phrase
love is my religion

elase medical spas 

was a guest host
with specials on botox and fills

by Julie Nielsen Hall

 i had to have the whole experience

and it was worth every RED penny.

a bubbly effervescent personality

endeared guests throughout...

it was I'M BEAUTIFUL
owner
cori davis-kahler.
she was not pretentious
as i imagined a salon with such class
had the potential to be.
her underlying message
was as empowering as she was:

i am so glad you came...
that is just what we want
 to help women (and men)
 tap into their own 
be~YOU~tiful

and be able to declare
I'M BEAUTIFUL...
to brave the RED lipstick
that accentuates femininity
and boldly states

 these women made

this “spring fling” 
a five star event.
see for yourself.

"I'M BEAUTIFUL...I LIKE MY HAIR !"

if i had the time,

i could write a book on all the interesting,

uncanny,

did that just really happen to my HAIR?

 experiences*

most often,

a trip to the salon

is never cheap

and to have mistakes fixed,

multiply the cost by three.

i finally found someone 

i

love

love 

love

betsy smith

at the salon in south jordan, utah

"I'M BEAUTIFUL "

in this place

red lipstick is emphasized

walls and walls

of  red lipstick quotes

it takes a confident woman

to wear bold red

and say

"I'M BEAUTIFUL "

(commercial break)

*science fair project

question: does red lipstick make you feel

more beautiful?

hypothesis: if women wear red lipstick,

then women will feel more beautiful

and in the very least have an attitude

that speaks volumes.

each new school year

begins with

a return to work pep rally

the big boss opened the meeting

with

jessica's affirmations

on youtube

(notice jessica's hair)

i realized then and there

i needed an attitude adjustment in the worst way

when it came time to select

the staff motto for the

t-shirt

(usually stems from a theme in the meeting)

naturally i wanted

"i like my hair...

i like my ELA's"

apparently everyone already loves their hair

and so we will be the "dream team"

but that did not stop me 

from my own personal mission statement:

it is on my pencils.

it is on my water bottles

and eventually

it will be on my countenance

mmmm....

maybe my new affirmation will be

"I'M BEAUTIFUL...

I LIKE MY HAIR

I WEAR RED LIPSTICK

AND GO BY

YES PRINCESS"
