Adventures in M - Day 6 - Looking Gorgeous at the Launch

I really need to buy some appropriate clothes. Having been a Personal Trainer for 8 years, my 'business' wardrobe consists mostly of spandex.

When I attend these M functions (not to mention Real Estate Investing-related stuff) I'd like to have a few outfits that are completely fabulous. I'll start working on that.

The May Launch was completely packed and they had brought in Ed Bestoso from Florida to make the presentation. He is the most successful (?) Marketing Executive in M history and has risen to the rank of Corporate Director VI.

Anyway, the whole point of the launch was to introduce the DW Presentation and get everyone excited about this new tool. It seemed to work. Having never used the old Presentation (obviously, since we've only been members for 5 days, 6 now) I can only guess from the relieved and excited exclamations of other people at the launch that this is a huge step forward. Cool! Looks like BYM and I got in at the right time.

I felt pretty smug since we had already watched the presentation the night before and I had brought the booklet with me, just in case. It came in really handy as I was able to make detailed notes right on the presentation while being led through it with Ed. We were the only people in our area who seemed to be this prepared.

I also received a pleasant surprise in the Ladies' Room after the 3-hour launch was over. The makeup I had applied 5 hours previously still looked great. I had focused on the purple-y shades in my Cosmetics Value Pack: Wisteria, Misty Mauve and Rose Quartz shadows with a Plum Eyeliner on my eyes with Plum Crazy Lipliner and Politely Pink Lipstick on my lips. I haven't braved the blush yet, I've never really understood blush, but I did use the Cream to Powder Foundation and Loose Powder. Anyway, I caught a glimpse of myself as I was leaving and actually went back to check out how great I looked. I felt gorgeous. Plus, my hair worked out very nicely yesterday. And all that even after having to walk through a driving rain storm to get to the car. Keen!

The funny part is that while I was worried I had ordered foundation that was too light (I got the lightest shade they have), BYM actually commented that I looked more tanned. Hah!
