Bye-Bye Bunchy-Bunch

Monday, March 31, 2014


Sometimes you just want to throw on a little dress with leggings and run to the store...no big deal, just an easy and quick outfit to run errands. 

How many times have you seen, or experienced this "before" happening?
--A lumpy shirt under a dress that bunches and rolls up?
--A dress that bunches and sticks to your leggings with fabrics that aren't "compatible"?
--Or, trying to wear a slip that twists all around and gets lost somewhere on your torso?

Frustrated?

No longer VERSIE babes.
We've got the answer to your struggles...
Say goodbye to the lumps, bumps and bunchy-bunch! Forever!

A VERSIE slip will forever change the way you dress.  Throw on a VERSIE -- the top is meant to show your fabulousness, and the bottom is meant to make your life so much easier.  We promise.

Lay Your Foundation Friday. And Love It.

Today I went to the park with Henry.  We played, fed the ducks and laughed.  Henry took a few tumbles and ate his share of mulch, which didn't seem to phase him much.  I'm pretty sure he was just happy to have some fresh air in his lungs and feel the sunshine on his back.

I was amazed at all the beauty that surrounds me everyday...I started to think about how easy it is to focus on all that could be better if I could change just a little bit of this or that.  It begins to feel like the lens of a camera beginning to blur out a clear and beautiful picture--things become distorted, out of proportion and out of balance.

So, what's your camera lens focused on?--All the the beauty and goodness in yourself and others?  Or all the things that you wish you could change without ever seeing the potential in yourself, others and your life?

Its time to dial it in...I know I needed a little bit of refocusing today...have a great weekend!

A Prego Belly

Monday, March 17, 2014


So often our prego belly's and bust line take on a life of their own...am I right?  Between managing a bra 4 times your normal size and figuring out how to cover-up your massive belly button---all while trying to stay below a 100 degree body temp it a real chore.  It gets exhausting and frustrating to find something to wear in the spring and summer months.  Sheer and light colored tops are not helpful either!

These side by side photos illustrate the "before"{left}, and "after" {right} effect of a VERSIE.  {nothing retouched}  You can see how a light colored shirt left to its own devices shows well, everything.  While, adding a VERSIE as a perfect foundation piece, you simply have a smoothing layer that covers lumps and bumps and adds a perfect slip to any maxi skirt or dress.

So, if your wondering if having a VERSIE slip will change prego mamma life for the better?  Well, lets just say, its a must-have!

Do you ever feel like people just don't get you?
Or, sometimes like you don't even get yourself?

So often we get lost in the opinions of others, like somehow they matter more than our own.  We lose sight of our own uniqueness and extraordinary value.  We begin to look at ourselves from the outside--in, instead of the inside--out...and we begin to make choices to please others instead of being true to our own wants.

The power we give away to others always leaves us empty.  We will never get in return what we think we want or deserve from someone else.  The only way to gain and sustain real confidence and inner strength is through connecting and claiming our own strength, divinity and purpose.

Start there and when you are feeling a little stronger begin to share your divine strength--it's incredibly powerful -- more than any of us realize!

So commit to go, say, do and be--today and everyday.

VERSIE Giveaway!

Wednesday, March 12, 2014

Gorgeous Courtney is one half of The Beauty Mark girls blog, and she's an incredibly talented makeup artist and blogger.  We decided to team up to to a VERSIE giveaway this week...{follow the link to her blog to enter!}

"One of my favorite dresses is this green and black midi length dress from Urban Outfitters. The problem is that the top is a sheer tank and the skirt is made of silk so I feel like I either have to wear twenty layers under it or be a static mess with the dress clinging in all the wrong places. The black VERSIE cap sleeve slip is literally perfect for this dress. It gives the sheer top a bit of modesty without looking weird, and provides the skirt with a cling-free fit.

It's all about the little things in life.

Small decisions, tiny tweeks in our daily schedule and taking a few moments everyday will make all the difference.  If we focus on today, that is all we see.  But if we recognize that our trajectory is based on all the little things that plot our course--little things become HUGE things!

Have a great weekend and make some really good little choices...you will be so happy with yourself that you did.
