honor of the International Women’s Day Synchroblog, called together by Sarah Bessey, I’m reposting this tribute to the women in my life who were and are my Patron Saints & Spiritual Midwives. 🙂 Who is a special woman in YOUR life? Comment & tell me about her!

~~~ A special tribute to the beautiful, smart, funny, loving women in my life – especially my mother! – who inspired me and shaped my life.

Love you SO MUCH, Mom, Grandma, Auntie Pam, Randie, and Nana!!!

XOXOXOXOXO,

Tanya

Poem by Nicholas Gordon

Before I was myself you made me, me

With love and patience, discipline and tears,

Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

: My Mother & Aunt

: My Beautiful Mom

: My Dad & Mom, early 80’s

Allowing me to sail upon my sea,

Though well within the headlands of your fears.

Before I was myself you made me, me

: Mom, Me, Dad

: My Beautiful Grandmother

: My Grandma & Aunt

With dreams enough of what I was to be

And hopes that would be sculpted by the years,

Then bit by bit stepped back to set me free,

: Grandma, Mom, Me (Ha!), Brother

: My wonderful, gorgeous Grandma, Mom, and Aunt!

: Grandma

Relinquishing your powers gradually

To let me shape myself among my peers.

Before I was myself you made me, me,

: Mother-in-law Randie, surrounded by family

: So brave & fun!

: Special times with the grandkids

And being good and wise, you gracefully

As dancers when the last sweet cadence nears

Bit by bit stepped back to set me free.

: My Nana – miss her so much!!!

: Me, Mom, Nana, & my daughter – 4 generations!


A Beautiful Mother’s Day with my Angels!

For love inspires learning naturally,

The mind assents to what the heart reveres.

And so it was through love you made me, me

By slowly stepping back to set me free.

of my friends & readers have been asking recently: When are you going to do more makeover videos? The answer to that question is RIGHT NOW! 😀

Last year I launched the Every Woman Project, a makeover show that focuses on finding women in our community who give so much of themselves to others, that they don’t spend much time on themselves. My Style Team and I come in and surprise these women with pampering gifts and makeover help, showing them how beautiful they are to those around them, for who they are and the love & energy they give to others!

Today I am happy to announce the next step for StyleSpyGirl and the Every Woman Project!

We are working together with Element 242 Social Media Producers to bring you a new web video series, that will merge all the style, beauty, fashion, and shopping on a budget advice you know StyleSpyGirl for, PLUS the heart & soul of the Every Woman Project, with makeovers & highlighting very special women! Instead of a full-length webisode, these videos will be around 3 minutes each – super easy to link, share on social media, and watch on your smart phone, tablet, or home computer! They’ll be fast, fun, and highly entertaining! 🙂

Stay tuned! You are going to see me and my Style Team all over town, featuring amazing local women, local business, salons, stores, fashion designers, products, etc… It’s all about REAL tips, for REAL women on REAL budgets! 😀 And we will continue to honor & pamper the makeover candidates that you have written in and nominated!!! Hurray!!! 😀

Are you ready for StyleSpyGirl Mission #1?

Here it is!!!!! Enjoy. 🙂

XOXO,

StyleSpyGirl

Important Note: We are looking for sponsors, partners, & advertisers to join in this awesome series with us! If you are interested in our team filming at your business, or highlighting your products & services, LET US KNOW!

LOVE when women help other women, even if they’re strangers! With all the injustice and pain in this world, I believe we should always rally around those trying to do their part to fight that darkness. We may never eradicate all the slavery, from this world, but that doesn’t mean we should ever, ever stop trying! 🙂

A friend of mine is particularly passionate about fighting the trafficking of innocent girls in the Philippines, that have been kidnapped, tricked, or sold into prostitution. According to the Health & Human Rights Journal: “In 2009, the Philippines was downgraded by the US State Department to a “Tier 2 Watch-List country,” with Metro Manila being a major source, destination, and transit area for girls and women. It is considered by UNICEF to have one of the world’s worst child trafficking problems. Accurate prevalence figures on sex trafficking are extremely challenging to generate due to the underground nature of human trafficking, but child trafficking estimates for the country hover around 100,000 annually.”

Karin Aiello is one woman making a difference, and I adore her creativity & passion! She is holding a huge shoe auction, with tons of shoes she has collected for this effort, ALL selling for $25 per pair. PLEASE check out her album of shoes, and read about her heart’s cry to help girls trapped in the nightmare of the sex trade industry! Every penny she earns from these shoes will go to www.wipeeverytear.org, a foundation whose mission is to break the chains of slavery and build safe & nurturing homes for rescued girls.

Hugs & Love,

StyleSpyGirl

Karin’s info & story are linked HERE, along with clickable photos of all these shoes, and more!

P.S. Ophidia Studio, Boise’s premier women’s fitness studio, is helping Karin by holding an auction to raise funds for Wipe Every Tear! You can view the auction info HERE.

Local Designer Asuyeta gets WILD!!!

Erika is taking her line to a whole new level with a lovely Kickstarter campaign! Not only can you HELP bring more of her fashion to the masses, but in the process you get to bring home a little something for yourself! 😀 It’s a fabulous fashion win-win!

I’m selecting this celestial beauty & showing my support.

Gorgeous, right? This woman has tons of talent, and I’m so very thrilled to support her. Which one of her fabulous kickstarter designs is YOUR favorite? 😀

the pun, ha ha ha! But did you know that: Bras are the most needed and least donated clothing item? You can help domestic violence shelters in your area, by bringing your unused bras to Soma Intimates! (Or, you can buy & donate a new one!)

What do you do with the lesser-worn bras that are sitting in your dresser drawer? 😉 Most consignment stores won’t take them, but it feels wasteful to throw them away… Especially when most of the bras we buy are a huge investment of time and money! Personally, I love having the chance to help another woman, by giving her something she might truly need. Stop by Soma Intimates at Boise Towne Square for your chance to help local domestic abuse shelters, by donating new or gently-used bras. Soma has collected and redistributed over 368,000 bras to date.

Here are the details, from Boise Towne Square’s Event page:

1/10/2013 – 2/14/2013

Time: 10:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.

Black Friday is less than a week away, the traditional beginning to the Christmas shopping season. Are you the type of person who likes to plan ahead, researching the best deals, and deciding which lines are worth standing in at midnight? (Or 9pm, rumored to be Target’s new opening time!)

Maybe crowds, long lines, and riots over limited-availability bargains are right up your alley! But this holiday season, I’m in a “shop local!” kind of mood. 🙂 So here’s my list of Black Friday deals, specials, & events at Boise’s locally and independently-owned small businesses.

Whatever you choose, just remember: Have fun, be safe, and please don’t lose your humanity & manners over a $5 toy, ha ha ha! Christmas is coming, and Santa is already watching your behavior… 😉

Love & Jingle Bells,

When hot New Orleans’ t-shirt designers Skip N’ Whistle contacted me about participating in their “Tacky Christmas T-shirt Campaign,” I couldn’t wait to see what crazy/cute little thing they were going to send me!

NOTE: The cute X-mas T shirts from Skip N’ Whistle is on a SPECIAL SALE today only, at Fab.com! Click this link to see more styles & colors: http://fab.com/sale/12902/

My first impression upon pulling my Tacky T from the package was, “Ooh, so soft!” My second impression was, “Yay! A women’s t-shirt that’s actually shaped like a WOMAN!” One of my fashion pet peeves is clothing designers that slap “feminine” designs on boxy, boy-shaped shirts, and pass them off as women’s wear. I don’t know about you, but this woman isn’t boxy! 😉

My “Tacky T” turned out to be pretty darn cute. It perfectly matched my favorite Emerson Edwards “Lace Print” skinny jeans from Vault Denim (See “Style Info” below!) With these two pieces in hand, I headed to one of my favorite local boutiques, Apricot Lane, to style up a couple outfits.

Here’s what I came up with! Warm, cozy, fun, and so very Boise. Enjoy!! 🙂

XOXO,

If you’ve followed my blog very long, you know that I love good fashion, and that I totally LOVE people who do good things for others! When those two passions collide, I find myself in a blissful place that I just HAVE to tell you all about! (See my previous article on the opening of Boise’s first Apricot Lane, for another great example of this!)

Recently, a brand new boutique opened in Eagle, Idaho, and I had the privilege of attending their grand opening festivities. The store is called “Full Circle Exchange,” and I truly believe it represents not only the future of responsible shopping, but also that perfect blend of fashion and humanitarian conscience!

Full Circle Exchange was launched by Mark & Jeanette Priddy, and Mark’s brothers John and Ed Priddy, whose goal is to “work with women entrepreneurs from around the world to bring their artisan goods into the western marketplace.” From purses, to tablecloths, to jewelry, everything in their boutique tells a story, and has a personal connection. For example, the beautiful necklaces made from bullet casings that Ethiopian women gather from around their villages, literally forming beauty from violence; you can’t help but reach out and touch this gorgeous jewelry, and marvel at its’ tragic origins.

One of the store’s products, in particular, instantly touched my heart and brought tears to my eyes. Nomi Network is a line that produces handbags and accessories that boast “Buy Her Bag, Not Her Body.” Their items are hand-crafted with pride by women who have been rescued from sex trafficking & exploitation, and receive training, support, and economic empowerment through the Network. To hold in your hands an item made directly by a woman who has been set free, learned a trade, and has a chance to create a new life for herself is both humbling and deeply moving!

Shopping in Full Circle Exchange is an all-around lovely experience, both visually and emotionally. The shop space itself is a stunning blend of rich architectural construction and bright, joyful decor. If you are in the market for unique gifts, gorgeous accessories, or Eco-friendly housewares, Full Circle is your one-stop shop. The prices are comparable to to the items you would find on other stores, and it’s an amazing experience to know your dollars are bringing freedom, empowerment, education, and economic independence to women and their families all over the world.
