Blogs

Hello Lovelies,

Every Sunday I will be blogging for PM Style, and today it seemed fitting to blog about friendship. Tomorrow is a big day for my QVC gal pal, Kalina from Breezies. She has a Today Special Value (whoop! whoop!), so no doubt the happy nerves are building as we speak for her.

Kalina was one of my first QVC friends. You know, the kind you tell stuff to that you would normally “vault” to other people. The kind of friend that you feel comfortable being vulnerable with because she “gets” it and isn’t perfect either. To this day, Kalina is still a true confidant. She gets busy with kids and parent dates. I get busy, well, secluding in my house because I’m too tired to put effort into socializing (or exercising which she yells at me for). But I know I can tell Kalina anything, absolutely anything, and she has my back. The best part about Kalina is that she is flawed, not afraid to say it, admit it, and make you feel comfortable in your failings, because she doesn’t try to hide hers. What a delight for a girl who on the surface seems so perfect and gorgeous and skinny and successful (and did I mention she has a killer fashion sense?) She has gifted me some rockin’ boots, bags and clothes for birthdays, from her trips to Italy. No doubt a covert effort to get me to stop wearing yoga pants and sneakers to her house for parties and drink dates.

So here is a little picture portfolio of me and the K-lady.

One time she had a Halloween party for her kids, and she and I dressed up as Thing 1 and Thing 2 from Dr Seuss…

And there have been many dinners out

(some that even led to dancing)….

There have been many freak outs, meltdowns, and teary “I’m lost and scared” trials that I have gone to Kalina to ask her advice (she is very wise and rational and has the best couch for therapy sessions)

Kalina and I have had some priceless moments on air together (many of which have had me over analyzing the color of my hair afterwards. Was I ever really that blonde? Oh dear. PS: Kalina and I are obsessed with achieving just the right blonde highlights. It’s a source of OCD for both of us.)

I remember the time I wore a bra that wasn’t Breezies to a party at Kalina’s house, and I felt so much shame, I had to take it off in the bathroom. (Or did Kalina make me take it off? When wine is involved, memories are foggy)

But the best part about Kalina, is how real she is. Hence, when I asked her to share a makeup free selfie with Tuesday Night Beauty viewers, she was quick to oblige...

So to my Q friend Kalina, thank you for years of advice, support, love, loyalty, and fun. You have done awesome things for our boobies so womankind is grateful, but girl to girl, you have been a bright spot for me since joining the Q! Love you girl, forever and always!

I'll see you all tomorrow night for PM Style at 10pET but 1st with IML @ 9p ET.
