This is an exciting time because so many wonderful things are happening.. It is a great new year and 2008 promises to be the best year yet… For everyone!! I am very excited about FashionCents, because I think it is a great way for us to communicate and share ideas about fashion, shopping and great tips that we can borrow from each other. This is so much fun, I feel like Carrie Bradshaw from Sex in the City. I arrived back from NYC last night and had an amazing time. It was my girlfriends baby shower and so we threw her a glamorous party in her honor. It was incredible. Then our friend Alejandro Sanz, (if you dont know him, he is a very very famous international singer) performed at Madison Square Garden on Friday night and we went with our very dear friends, Marc Anthony and Jennifer as well as our friends Paulino Rubio (the mexican pop star) and her wonderful new husband, Nicolas who is incredible. We danced all night and had the best time and celebrated after. It is always wonderful to be in NYC. I just love it there, it is somehow liberating. I was so excited to get out into the city and do some shopping. I wasn’t really in need of anything or looking for anything in particular, but just wanted to feel the city and somehow you get sucked into all those stores. But strangely enough, as much as I love to shop, I just didn’t have as much fun as I thought. It is real work to go into a store and try to find what you are looking for or even browse for that matter. You have to find someone to help you, then you have to hope that they have what you are looking for and if you are lucky enough to find it, you then have to stand in line and wait to pay for it and hope they ring it up right the first time:) I tried very hard to buy something in New York, believe me, I tried, I went into so many stores, but even JR was surprised to see me come home with nothing (and relieved:) But when I got home, I started to shop Market America’s shopping site, and of course I ended up on Shopbop.com (one of my favorites…I always seem to end up there) and bought a bunch of goodies:) I love that store because you can find everything from bathing suits and sweatsuits to cocktail dresses and the shoes…all in one place.. love that concept.(be sure to check out the new colors of Juicy Couture, I got the lawn boy green and clementine orange, yummy!!!) (and of course if you are a Market America Unfranchise Owner, you get paid back for your purchases in cash:) Shopping online is so much easier and you get to browse without anyone hassling you….
Every once in a while, a girl has to indulge herself,

Loren,
With grace, poise, compassion, and ultimately love, you show us how to keep a positive attitude, even when you are acousted with a negative blog. Thank you for leadership worth following and emulating. You inspire me to be greater than myself, but to remain humble to the common human spirit in all of us. You have such a great attitude. Thank you for sharing yours with us.
Dr Lisa

I NEED YOUR HELP…now, I can’t find the blog info. on the sneakers that tighten your booty and help with cellulite…they were on Loren’s first blog…but, it’s getting confusing on where to find the info and which blog to read…ANYWAY, Loren along with several others had given me additional stores to shop and find these amazing shoes and now I can’t remember where that was. Do the blogs go away after a certain amount of time. Sipping my SlimBeans and shopping from myself…life is good!

Dear Loren, We are so greatful for everything we learned this past weekend. Spreading the news has never been easier.
We were brainstorming, and had an idea if its not already on the way.Is There a Market America Gift card that can be used for the portal. If we loaded $10 Gift cards with our Portal domains on each one and gave them out, like advertisement, an even greater incentive to check out the portal would be born.
Market America Gift Card, Your Domain or Reference Code for the back of Business cards. Any thoughts on that? Can’t wait to hear back from you

Hi Loren,
Leadership was wonderful. I have a couple of quesitons for you. I found out the Monday before Leadership that I am expecting baby #3. I am a heavy-set woman. What fashion sites do you recommend for maternity clothes? Also, has there been any thought about putting together a “prenatal” vitamin formula in Isotonix form? I did get some help with what I should be taking, but I thought having it all in one bottle might be a solution instead of making sure I remember (I have preggo brain) to add everything to my morning vitamins.

Hi everyone. Thanks for all the beautiful comments about Leadership School. It was a great event and we are working very hard for you. To answer a few questions for you at once, the jeans I had on were Genetic Denim and they will be on the portal in the next 2 weeks.
Tanja, for you…The Kabbalah book I would recommend starting with is the Power of Kabbalah by Yehuda Berg.
Jim, we will be coming out with a mens line by convention and it will be wonderful…I have been working on the best formulas.I will stay in touch.. and to all..thanks for the love…it is so greatly appreciated and we love you too… love Loren

Hey Loren and all who attended leadership. I just got back to the great north, in Hershey, Pa…loved the weekend! I am so excited to see what God has in store for me and this great business! I met a great prospect on my first flight out of Miami, so it’s a great start!!
Loren, I’m so impressed with your awesome vision and enthusiasm for this company. You are the icing that’s on the proverbial cake!!!! You make all those men look good (after all, that’s what we women do, right???)

Leadership was so awesome!!! As Market American business owners we need to look professional with style. Thank you Loren for giving us the “excuse” to SHOP, SHOP, SHOP. The best thing is that this is could be a possible business expense!!!!! You know what that means Mr. IRS!!! On to the webportal!!!

Hi Loren,
The convention was great! I would like to know the name of the jeans you were wearing on the last day of the convention. I can’t remember the brand name no matter on how hard I try. By the way, I love this new site! Keep up the good work.
