Hold me now! My first Noonday Trunk Show is this evening!<\/p>\n

A few thoughts pre-coffee on my way out the door to take\u00a0the kids to \u201cSaturday Tradition\u201d (donuts and chocolate milk at Dunkin).<\/p>\n

I\u2019m so excited to tell our artisans stories of redemption and hope since they partnered with Noonday. I\u2019m looking forward to styling some of my closest friends and finding out which Noonday accessories they fall in love with.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve arranged and re-arranged my jewelry display like\u2026fifty times since last night. I\u2019ve gone back and forth about my outfit:<\/p>\n

white and black peplum top with black skinny jeans<\/p>\n

Like this with the feathered fringe earrings<\/a> and an\u00a0aurora wrap arm<\/a> party<\/p>\n

\"blackandwhite\"<\/a><\/p>\n

or chambray tunic with tights?<\/p>\n

Something like this but with Noonday\u2019s Rustic tote<\/a> and gold cubed stud<\/a><\/p>\n

\"chambray\"<\/a><\/p>\n

oh the tyranny of choice!). But really, I\u2019m so grateful to have choices and opportunities to create choices for those less fortunate.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve texted my amazing hostess encouraging words that I\u2019m so proud of her because really, I am, hosting a Noonday show is one of the best ways to advocate for our artisans.<\/p>\n

\"host-why2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve prayed for every woman coming tonight that she feels loved, connected, powerful, and full of purpose\u2013 because she is\u2013because her small yes to come tonight will reverberate shalom to our artisans. I\u2019m so excited to know her better.<\/p>\n

\"artisanweb\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve prayed for the artisans in Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda, Haiti, Peru, Guatemala, India, Kenya, and Vietnam\u2013 all of whom need ambassadors like me to harness our love for gathering people, throwing a fun party, and fashion to help create a better future for them.<\/p>\n

I think I\u2019m ready.<\/p>\n

I think I need coffee.<\/p>\n

I think becoming an Ambassador was the best decision I\u2019ve ever made.<\/p>\n

Wearing their stories,<\/p>\n
