Here it comes again in our neck of the woods. WINTER! Yep, it’s on its way. This season I’ve shopped @shopbop to find a boot to keep my feet warm, dry and stylish! Guess what? I found many pairs! Some of them absolutely do not look like snow boots as we knew them and there are so many choices. I can not believe that @sorel made a winter boot named Medina that doesn’t make you look like the abominable snowman! I’m crushing on them right about now! There are even ballet flats! Not sure they would be my first choice but they are cute! There is a wide range of prices starting at just $55! So, take a peek and let me know what you think 😉 To get Details and links click on photos below slide show.
The Cellar Bar was the scene of “A night of Fashion with Kilame” Fashion Show and Pamela Quinzi in the Bryant Park hotel, NYC. It was great!
It was wonderful to see Pamela again after coming back from her whirlwind of shows at fashion weeks all over the world. The dresses and shoes were just FAB! and fun! Especially if you love a tutu! Enjoy the photos!
Isn’t she beautiful and check out those shoes!
Congrats Pamela Qinzi!
The Cellar Bar was an appropriate venue with high ceilings and Gothic trimmings considering Pamela’s summer journey. I loved the chandeliers and cavernous feeling inside.
This was the scene at the Pamela Quinzi show.
Hope I gave you a taste of what its like when the Cinderella of New York returns!

As you all know by now I love to try new products all of the time! Eyram’s Fashions partnered with me to get the word out about their exceptional products and we will be rewarding one lucky winner a jar of Eyram’s Shea Salt Scrub! Be sure to enter to win! When I opened the jar for the first time I was wowed by the aroma. It smells so good! Next I was very happy to find it in a plastic container as I have used other scrubs that where in glass jars and that is NOT a good mix. 😉
After a few uses I got it all figured out. At the end of showering scoop out some scrub, I use it on my arms, legs and feet! (not on the bottom of your feet! Slippery) Rinse and pat dry. Voila! You are exfoliated and moisturized in one easy step. I LOVE a short cut in the morning when I am rushing to get out the door! As the day went on I realized my skin still looked ultra moisturized and soft. Best part…it soaked into my skin and felt smooth and NOT greasy. I am sold on it!
Read on for an interview with the creator of great products!

1.) When did you first know that you wanted to start a bath and beauty line?
In 2010, when I traveled to Ghana (West Africa). I was introduced to a lot of natural and organic goods. One of those things was raw shea butter, palm oil. I loved the raw shea butter it was great on my skin and hair. I then began to do research on its use and how I could make products for the skin. I have always had a problem with over the counter lotions and crème they never kept my skin moisturized. In 2012, I decided it was time and Eyram’s Bath & Beauty Line was birth. We have a variety of natural skin products and remedies that will be retailed under our line.
2.) Where do you get your inspiration?
God, humanity, nature, and skincare industry.
(I love this answer!)
3.) What is your favorite and your least favorite part of your job?
My favorite thing about my job is creating and formulating different products. I love it! My least favorite is if my supplies are out of stock, it slows production. LOL!
4.) How many hours do you work a day? Do you ever stop!
I typically work 8 to 10 hours a day. Yes, I stop! I do believe rest is important. If you are tired it slows down your creative process and the ability to make good decisions.
5.) Do you think you will expand your line to any other area?
Yes, we currently retail fashion and a children’s skincare and clothing line.
6.) What are your dreams for the future?
I want to see Eyram’s Fashions/Bath & Beauty, a Fortune 500 company. I want to see our products and services in magazine, television, hands of celebrities, internet, spas, salons and more. Global!
7.) Do you have just the scrub in your Etsy shop at this point? When and will you be adding more.
We will adding our Bath Tea Bags that are great for relaxing and achy/tired muscles. We will be adding those products within the next week.
8.) When will your website be up and running?
Our website will be up and running October 2014.
9.) What other products do you offer?
We offer body lotions, butters, natural remedies (ointments, salves), lip balm, romance massage oil, Mommy to Be Rub.
(A mommy to be rub, isn’t that awesome! It is the perfect gift for the mama! Maybe the romance massage oil would be a great way to become a mommy to be!)
I totally enjoyed working with the creator, Melinda Bradley-Kumi and wish her the best of luck in all of her future endeavors! I want to try all of the products! ENTER TO WIN HERE!
