Introducing the gift bags & giveaway bags.

This post is so late!! There has been so much going on in my life. I won't even get into my car getting broken into (1st time) & my laptop getting stolen. On, August 11th (the day after my birthday!) I hosted HairGurl's 3rd Annual Summer Affair at Harvest Organic Grille right here in Houston! It was EVERYTHING I hoped for & more. Lovely attendees, non-stop hair talk (we must have talked about every product, lol), great food, product swapping & of course giveaways. :-) Thank you ladies so much for sharing this special day with me & making it so wonderful!

 

The private room at the Harvest Organic Grille was so pretty! It was the perfect fit for the event.

Khloa killed that pita bread. Not surprising at all because she seems to love bread just as much as I do. lol

The hubs was there to help me out! Thanks babe!

Cantu donated SO many gift bags! At least 5 or 6! They are a staple for my dry hair.

The beautiful ladies!

Hey Laronda! She just launched a new business with some amazing tees & buttons. She's also rocking one in this pic. Check them out on her website,  Naturally Supreme!

Product talk!

Picking more giveaway winners. Everyone walked away with something! :D

Mizani sponsored 2 bags of their new collection: Supreme Oil.

Product swapping! And I finally got to try the Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel.

Allllllllll of the products Mona won. Ya'll, she was winning everything! lol

Shout out to Trina from The Baby Shopaholic for telling Tracey in the middle about my event!

And here we are. ;-)

A BIG thank you to all of the sponsors!:

Cantu Shea Butter
Mizani

I also gave away things that I purchased with my own money such as a Ross gift card, Suave Shea Butter & Almond Shampoo & Conditioner, Tresemme Naturals Conditioner, an animal print scarf, sunglasses case, Paul Mitchell products (gifted), Aussie Moist etc


And a special thank you again to the ladies that attended the 2012 editon of the HairGurl Summer Affair!!!! :D

 I set my hair for about 3-4 hours with nothing but water. I notice when I do this the definition of my hair doesn't last that long, but sometimes I don't feel like doing my hair before bed. So I'll just do it the day of. I take what I can get on those days.

 And this is at the end of the night. In it's true shrunken state. LOL hey, that's the way natural goes.

 

Oh, and this dress is another Ross find. It was around $10....

Still not burnt enough!!! LOL

Nice and full! hahahaa!!

Khloa trying to eat random crap off the ground again. lol, she does not quit!

If the skirt looks familiar to you, you may remember it from this post. 

As you can see, it was once a dress, but somehow got ripped in the washer (or dryer). I didn't want to throw it away so I made it my new skirt. ;-)

Later on....

Clapping at the fireworks!! :D

I'm still not feeling this food....I'm gonna give them another chance though.

Hope ya'll had a good 4th! :-) Oh, and I'm one of the newest contributors for 'Fro Fashion Week!! This shouldn't surprise you guys since I had so much FUN at the Spring '12 FFW. ;-) Check out my 1st post here!! :D
