Dear Friend,

Personal Note On A Personal Note...

Summer will be here before you know it and now is the perfect time to think about booking classes and activities for you, your friends and teens. I want to remind you that Cents of Style® services like, Cosmetic Coaching Parties, Closet Evaluations, Beauty Boot Camps and A Day of Strategic Shopping in New York City with me (Andy Paige) are all life changing activities that will forever alter the way you approach your beauty and fashion routine.

As I have traveled the country helping women in their home, just like I do on Starting Over, I have come to realize that there are few things more important than confidence in your appearance. Whether it's teens just beginning to take an interest in beauty and fashion, graduates entering the work force, mom's who have lost their style muscles or retirees who are ready to turn it up a notch, we all want to look and feel our best. We want to know that we are dressing the best for our body type and practicing the most attractive cosmetic and beauty skills for our age and skin type.

This is what Cents of Style® is all about... Helping women everywhere realize their fashion and beauty potential... without breaking the bank!! Let me know if I can help you this summer. I would love to come by for a visit! Please use our Contact Form to tell us the services you're interested in and we will happily respond and see how we can revolutionize your Cents of Style!

Be happy! Be Beautiful! Be Thrifty!


Love and Trust, Andy Paige Andy's Monster

Tips

It is April and I bet you have a wedding to attend in the next couple of weeks. Now I am no "Ms. Manners" however, I'd like to pass along a little wedding wardrobe etiquette that might spare you a few cross looks from the bride at the reception.

Tradition dictates that wearing certain colors to a wedding sends a signal about your feelings towards the marriage or the bride. For example, if you wear red to a wedding you are (supposedly) damning the union, if you wear black you are (supposedly) mourning the union and if you wear white you are secretly envious of the bride... a bride should be the only one to wear white on her special day!

Now, before you hit reply to this E-nnouncement writing to inform me that black is now an appropriate option for formal evening weddings, I understand that. Just remember when you are getting dressed for the special event, you are attending as a show of support and celebration for the loving couple. This is their day and what you wear should never draw attention away from the blushing bride! No white, no red and think twice about black!
This Month's Cents Of Style® Accessory Suite

GARDEN PARTY

GARDEN PARTY Accessory Suite Ecchem... Well I went to a garden party... and everyone loved my accessories! Isn't that how that song goes? (hehe) Well, maybe I am remembering the song wrong, but one thing's for sure, this month's GARDEN PARTY Accessory Suite will have you singing with happy, I-love-being-a-girl glee! This Suite is piled high with fresh, fun accessories that welcome in the season and declare that you are right on trend!

In this month's Cents of Style® Accessory Suite you will find an adorably feminine straw handbag with faux leather flower appliqués; this bag is reminiscent of the hot COACH straw bag which sells for 5 times the price! (WooHoo!) You'll also find a fabulous purse charm, one of the trendiest items that everyone here in NYC is clamoring over. You'll get a preppy, striped grosgrain ribbon billfold, so cute you'll want to bite it! You'll also get a gorgeous Geneva Quartz watch that's surrounded by 44 cubic zirconia stones and has a deliciously fresh orange leather band. The watch is an exact replica of the $1300 Michele Deco watch, worn and adored by young Hollywood! And last but certainly not least, you will also get a beautiful pair of silver 3/4 karat (each) cubic zirconia stud earrings to round out this jam packed Suite.

This Suite will look chic when worn with Spring and Summer whites, cargos, T's and sandals, everyday denim or feminine sun dresses. If you would like to give this adorable Suite as a gift, we will happily gift wrap it for you in our silver foil paper and satin Andy Paige ribbon. We will gladly include a lovely card with your sentiments.

As always, Cents of Style® Accessories Suites: Thrifty chic accessories all bundled together for an immediate style boost, are just $49.50!!!


Sale Rack
Sale Rack

The Spring holidays have passed so Spring Sales are in full bloom. Here's what to look for this month:
  • Dresses - Many stores pack the racks preparing for the yearly craving of a new Easter or Passover dress! Hop quick like a bunny to find great dresses reduced and on the sale rack.
  • Raincoats - If you've been hankering for a fabulous bright colored rain coat now is the time to buy it. The stores want them out of site before May.
  • Knit, Knit, Knit - In just a few weeks many knits are going to feel too heavy in summer's heat, so stores are pushing them out.

QUEEN HELENE MINT JULEP MASQUE Have You Tried...

MINT JULEP MASQUE FROM QUEEN HELENE?

If you have combination skin like me you will love this terrific clarifying MINT JULEP MASQUE from QUEEN HELENE.

I read a quick blurb about this clarifying mask promising to help dry acne pimples, rinse away blackheads and shrink large pores. I picked up a tube the other day and I love it! It hardens within minutes and you can actually see it pulling the impurities from your skin. Awesome!

Of course, you know me; I also love the price... less than $4 bucks! Yippee!
