ClassySimpleChic: Feeling Empowered

I attended an event this weekend in support of my mother-in-law where her business, Brice Accounting and Bookeeping Services was recognized as a leading small business in Prince George's County, Md. Running a successful business is only one of the many things she takes on. She is a minister in a well-respected church, a wife and a wonderful mother to my awesome hubby! We are so very proud of her.

My husband and I enjoyed being a part of such an empowering event as they not only recognized her business, there were 30 or so other honorees being recognized for giving back to the community. I left that event feeling empowered to do something to help our community as well. I will make more of a conscious effort to support small businesses. As more of us begin to to do this, we can do our part to help create more jobs in our communities. I think that is so awesome!

As for my outfit, I purchased this dress 2 years ago and this weekend was my first time wearing it. As you can see I don't subscribe to the rule that if you haven't worn it in the last year, get rid of it. Lol!
