I'm Back with a Ruby Crown!

I love the idea of a blog because you have an outlet to get your views, passions and your story to people all over the world or maybe just your mom and best friend.

I had the most extraordinary opportunity to compete in the Mrs America 2015 pageant representing North Carolina, and it was one of the most life changing experiences of my life. I did not walk away with the Mrs America crown but I did walk away with the "Ruby Crown"

What does the "Ruby Crown" mean???  This is my new inspiration for my updated blog and what I want to share with the world, or maybe just my mom and best friend ;)

The women I met at Mrs America helped give me this life changing experience. I met some of the most God fearing inspirational women at Mrs America, and I am so glad that God gave me the opportunity to meet them and be inspired by them.

I left Mrs America with a Mountain top experience, I felt closer to God than I had in a very long time and utterly inspired to share my faith and also incorporate my passion for fashion, hair, makeup, cheer, dance, family and everything that makes me...ME

Today is a new beginning and the start of  Ruby Crown " A Kings Daughter"
Proverbs 31:10  says Who can find a virtuous woman? For her price is far above rubies!

We as women can spend a lifetime trying to keep our confiendce high because we live in a world that it can easily be destroyed. I can attest that you as a Kings Daughter are a true princess and are more than; pageant titles, bad relationships, finances, work problems, mommy exhaustion, and of course far above "Rubies"

I spent my year as Mrs North Carolina spreading the word that the Ordinary can be Extraordinary and now that my year is coming to a close, I can move to the next chapter of my life while using the extraordinary opportunity I had as Mrs North Carolina.

Ruby Crown will now be a place of inspiration through  fashion and style, mommy moments, hair and makeup tutorials and of course a place of faith and all the blessings we can experience as a "Kings Daughter"

I cant wait to share with all of you and a little disclaimer I will post hopefully though-out the week but mommy time will always come first.   I can also promise that I wont always have perfect grammar. I write like I speak and usually in a fury, so its a blog not the New York Times!

I'm excited about my new project and if you have a story to tell or something you would like to share I would love to have guests posts!

I also want to give a shout out to another inspirational lady who just happens to be Mrs New Jersey and became such a sweet friend Jennifer Porrata she has an amazing ministry www.ourlifesongs.com Please go check out her ministy!

Blessings,

Christy Loves...

I think I have professed my love undoubtedly for the Mary Kay skin care line. I use a lil buffet of products from each of the skin care lines. 

1. Face Wash- TimeWise Normal to Oily

2. Moisturizer- ClearProof Moisturizer ( this is from the Acne line and I love that this doesn't clog pores under my makeup!)

3. Pore Minimizer- Clearproof

4. TimeWise Even Complexion Essence

5. Repair Eye Cream Roller

6. Eye makeup remover

and my WOW product is for sure the TimeWise Repair Volu Firm Lifting serum this is like gold in a bottle, I honestly use every drop and every night its amazing on your skin! This helps fight and repair wrinkles and just makes your skin feel like a baby! My mom calls it the "good stuff"

I also use the even complexion mask and the micro derm set. 

It is truly an amazing and innovative skin care line and has tremendously helped my skin!

You can order from my bestie Stetson www.stetsonkpatton.com she knows every products in and outs but these are some of my must haves!

If you know me you know I love all things H&M! I love that you can get a high fashion look without the price tag! Black and White combo is such a classic look but i loved this refreshed take on the looks at H&M!

I love this outfit with this printed knit skirt and white and black cami! The new Milana tassle necklace at Stella & Dot that would make this outfit complete.

Skirt- $49.95  Top- $34.95 Shoes- $34.95

Im super crazy about this look. I love the whole outfit and it might have to be in my closet this spring!

Black and White Printed pants $29.95

Black Silk Cami- $17.95

Black Belt- $6.95

Black Shoes with Gold ankle strap $49.95

Gold Necklaces  www.stelladot.com/christywcreson 

Im thinking gold layering necklaces would look oh so fab on this and could even be paired with a blazer for a chilly night.

Happy Shopping!

WMW….

Well this is no surprise since I am a stylist! I just started with this company at the end of October and I cant tell you what a whirlwind its been. Not only am I making extra money ( paid for all of Elouise's Christmas!!!) but Im earning free jewelry and accessories and get to work with what I love…jewelry and fashion!

Im sure most of you know I used to own a boutique with my bestie Stetson so you are probably thinking why this…

I can tell you this company is amazing and they make it so easy to host trunk shows and sell your product. After owning my own store I can tell you this seems like a piece of cake.

The product speaks for itself it is a guranteed product with exceptional quality. Being a buyer for my store I can tell you I didnt see this quality at market, and is so well made! 

Here are a few pieces from the spring line I just cant live without!

 

I was going to give you my top 3 but I love it all so much Im giving my top 8! 

Starting with left to right

1. The Milana tassel necklace is amazing and the tassel is removable!

2. The Red Ikat getaway is the perfect weekend bag, you need to plan a trip just to use this great bag!

3.  Mallcora Chandelier earrings are just gorgeous and perfect for spring and summer!

4. Tia Cross body bag in the Mosaic black and white print this such a great departure from your normal large handbag and perfect for when you don't want to carry a large bag.

5. The Stone Sutton is probably the most amazing necklace I've seen. I did a little gasp when I opened the box. Its a little pricier than the others but….SO WORTH IT!!

6. The Makena…the creative director calls this one the sexy piece of the collection and will definitely help spice up an outfit.

7. The Sardinia, I've already professed my love for this pinky red piece with detachable pieces but is a great piece to wear now and into spring. * it is pictured below in my OOD!

8. The Jacinthe is just gorgeous arm candy I loved it paired with my large gold MK watch!

Best news is you can shop all these pieces now or contact me today about hosting a trunk show. It doesn't cost you anything to host a trunk show and you can receive hundereds in free jewelry and accessories!!!

Golden Globes! All the fashion…Best and Worst!

Golden Globes 2014

I thought this years show was great! The Golden Globes is one of my favorite awards show I love the film and tv actors in one place. 

Here is my rundown of all the fashion of the night.

Well lets get it over with the worst of the night! I tell you when a star makes bad fashion mistakes they really go for it!

Sarah Hyland in George Hobieka Couture- I was not a fan of this whole look I feel the color washed her out and she is so young she could have had a lot of fun with it. 

Hayden Panettiere in Tom Ford.  I know some people really like it but I hated it! I felt she looked old and dated and it did not flatter her at all.

These are also some on my worst dressed lists that I feel just missed the mark!

* I know a lot of people liked Amy Adams in this red Valentino but I thought it was awful and it looked like something was going to pop out all night!

MY WORST DRESSED OF THE NIGHT HAS 2 WINNERS UNFORTUNATELY

Drew Barrymore in Monique Lhuiller. I know she is preggo but this looks like a prom dress she should have worn on Never Been Kissed…ugh

LENA DUNHAM  in Zac Posen. Why O did someone let her wear this. This might be one of the worst ever. This was a bad color choice and style for her body shape. Take all that away and the fit is the worst part, this is a couture gown and it looks like she a bought a prom dresses 2 sizes to small…Bless!

NOW Onto the Good Stuff!!!!! BEST DRESSED OF THE NIGHT!!!

Let's start with two preggo mamas who got it way right…Bravo ladies! 

Kerry Washington in Balenciaga and Olivia Wilde in Gucci

Some of my other favorites

Since Im a pageant girl ill give my top 3 and getting 2nd runner up in Best Dressed is Sophia Vergara in Zac Posen with an amazing Lorraine Scwartz necklace.

1st Runner up goes to Margot Robbie this up and comer actress is not only stunning but wore this amazing white Gucci gown accented with blue and crystal bead work!

My Golden Globes best Dressed of the night goes undoubtedly to Lupita Nyong'o in a red Ralph Lauren off the shoulder cape dress.  Absolutely stunning!

 I hope you enjoyed my Best and Worst Dressed list and awards season is here so stay tuned for SAG, GRAMMY'S, and the one and only OSCARS!

XOXO,

Christy
