Wow, it’s chilly here!! It’s all good, because I love New York. It has been wonderful to see Jennifer and Marc and those beautiful babies. I am just in awe of them. Of course, Jennifer looks fantastic, flawless as always, and I shared with her all the wonderful comments that so many of you shared with me about how happy you are for them. She loved them all. Of course, tonight I am going to try to go to sleep early, so I can get up in the morning and go see them again, but not before I do a little shopping online. I feel so guilty and sad (I know, it’s a sickness) when I don’t get out in the city to shop when I am here. I haven’t had a single chance. I had dinner tonight with my girlfriend Leah Remini (Kings of Queen tv show) and my other girlfriend Anna at Il Mulino in the city tonight and it was fantastic. How can you stop eating with all the fantastic pasta in your face, and why do the portions have to be so big???? Of course, I polished it off and promised myself that I am going to start fresh in the morning and get back on track (how many times have I said that this week:) Just got home not too long ago, and since I am stuffed, and ready to chill out, I decided to jump online and see what is hot. Leah was wearing this fantastic trench coat tonight. Loved it!! They are so stylish this season and look fantastic with everything. I love them because they make everything look chic. I decided to go online and pick up a new one…inspired by Leah’s. So check this out…Here is the real one (love it) and it is super expensive but still on the portal and I can pick it up at Nordstrom and earn IBV (love to justify it that way, because it helps everyone out)… and it is made by Burberry and I love their clothing this season. They have such a cool rock and roll look to them and I think just this past year they have really made a strong comeback…their prices came back strong also:) $2995.00, but then I decided to check out Target to see what they have for a “real deal”… and look what I found. I love this jacket. It looks just as chic and fantastic and I think I like the color even better. I for sure love the price. I mean for $69.99, I have to have it. Even if I only it wear it once, and I know it will look super chic, it is definitely worth the money. You decide for yourself. Real vs. Deal… I love them both… but for now, this super city chic trench, will do just the trick, satisfy my appetite and leave my wallet extra happy. After all, everyone wants a great deal, and look fabulous all at once. (by the way, you figure out which is the “real” and which is the “deal”)

Thank you, Loren, for the sizing on the jeans- may be too small for me ( as a 12-14) but mt daughter is an 8-10 so I will look to treating her!
Speaking of mentions of our products, Tuesday evening (I think) I saw little dainty Ashanti on MTV interview show (can’t remember the name). I was scrolling and saw her in a video so I stopped. After the video, she was interviewed by a young man. They talked about her upcoming album (spring) and her other life endeavors. She gave a beautiful mini ad for Ashanti’s OPC3 Beauty Blend. I was amazed, as I was just scrolling the channels !! She didn’t give the way to order, but just to hear the promotion was amazing and I am sure her fans will check out her website to find out about it. I think the Beauty Blend is a top notch product- with OPC3, Calcium, D and the other skin-oriented ingredients, and I use it myself. I would love to see us promote it more, with skin care and Motives, because it’s a natural. It’s a great opening product
Anyway, I love Ashanti’s energy and intelligence and talent! She is out there for us all the time. I hope to see her at the convention or on our stage to hear her report about the Beauty Blend- and maybe to sing!! ( along w/ everyone else…maybe Marc- one of my favorites way before we brought hime and Jennifer in- but that’s another story…).
Thank you and JR for bringing your associations w/ the famous to actually help the Market America business and millions of customers all over the world.

Hi Ann..I will get them to put a better size guide for you on the portal for the genetic jeans. But generally size 6 is like a 28 or 29…depending on how much bootie you have:) but I will get a better guide on there for you. xox Loren
Good idea on elle.com
And so all of you know…Jennifer loves our cellular labs product.. she uses it all the time and love it. Magazines are funny cause sometimes they print things (most of the time) that she never even said..
xoxo goodnight for now..love L.

This isn’t exactly Big Apple, but I noticed that we can get those Genetic Jeans from the portal now, among all the wonderful Market America products!! I’d like to get some, but I’m not certain how to figure the sizes. They start at 24 and go up to 32. Loren, can you give me the scoop on this? Thanks, Ann Owens

Hi, this blog is great! This is a link to Elle.com’s area to send information and reviews about MA products.
elle@mediamark.com
With enough of us writing in, we can’t be ignored. Our products are top of the line and can use the acknowledgement from a top of the line fashion mag.

Hi Loren, i love to hear your stories of all the fun you have in the big Apple, I cannot wait to have all the freedom to fly everywhere and visit friends all over, and I cannot wait to see pictures of Max and Emee {i think that’s the correct spelling}they must be gorgeous! and you both in spite of your busy life, always make time for what counts, giving constantly of yourselves, to your friends and to us, this blog, is the ultimate in one to one relationships. You not only tell us about the concept, you implement it yourselves with us, thank you for that! We love you!

Hi Loren
Wow how great! Blessings to the happy and proud parents!
Question for Jennifer.
I am reading the March 2008 issue
of Shape. As a CTLC I like to stay current with what my clients may be reading.
Jennifer is featured on pg. 80 on beauty finds and diva delights.
She mentions Cle de Peau at $475 an ounce as her La Creme all over. How does this compare with our Cellular Labs?
She also mentions Burt’s Bees and Scott Barnes. No mention of any of our exclusive MA products. That would have been exciting to see in print. What are her favorite MA products? If you don’t ask you won’t know. I’d love to know.
Thanks for all you and JR do for all of us. You are wonderful!
KF Be well, be fit!

Refferal Marketing is a Great Thing … Epecailly when you get paid for it…Something to think about…Quik question I am a Boater and when out with my business asscoaites in NYC.. I often brag about The Utopia being docked in NYC for teh summer and have looked all over through my travels to see if I can see her and have not been able to locate her…Where do we keep her in the Big Apple ? … Stay Warm… RicahrdC

Hi Loren,
Boy are we pumped after Leadership. We have a local Second Look tonight in Saddle Brook, NJ with Gigi. If you find yourself free – stop by! Thanks for all the hard work you’re doing for us. We’re very grateful and excited for all the new things to come.
We are coming up with a list of suggestions for Partner Stores and were wondering where to submit the information.
Hope you’re enjoying your time in NYC.

Hey Loren,
I was just listening to some of Jennifer and Marc’s duets. Jennifer and Marc’s twins are going to hear some great lulllabies! My Mom went through college on a voice scholarship, so I appreciate the ‘sound of music’ in the home! Again, all God’s blessings to Jennifer and Marc and the newest members of their families — I hope Marc’s kids are as excited about their new brother and sister as the rest of us are! Twins, wow, that is a couple of hands full! Warmest regards, Bonny

OK I had to cheat. I went to Nordstrom’s and found the picture layouts and now I know the real deal. They are both awesome!!
So when are the names of the little bundles being given out? Are we MA going to know before the press does?
Love to all!! Enjoy the big City.

Thanks so much, Loren, for showing how affordable “designer” fashion can be! I’ve really enjoyed reading your blog since you started it! We’ll have to look at our Gene SNP and check and see if shopping is part of our DNA – if it is, then I’m definitely deficient in that area! :) Thanks for giving us “non-shoppers” some inspiration!
Enjoy NY and those precious little ones! I’m sure it’s wonderful to look at them and be reminded of what is really important in life!

Hi Loren,
It is driving me crazy…which is real? I think the real is the right one or the smaller picture. Both are just adorable. Thanks for writing Loren, kiss those babies. Jennifer Twardosky
