Welcome to A Day of Beauty!

Well, this is a new blog about what is going on at the Big Sunday charity event called A Day of Beauty.

The girls from The Doll Service and I are recruiting professional hairdressers, makeup artists, and wardrobe stylists to make over 60 women who live in a homeless shelter in Echo Park on Sunday April 29th.

We want to leave them with a new outfit, and some makeup and hair products so they can recreate themselves after the event is over and share with them tips for looking their best, and hopefully make them feel special and beautiful. Luckily so many great people are coming through.

Of course there is more to this than meets the eye......like what is everybody going to eat and music and clean up and scheduling etcetera.....But the donations just keep coming....

Big Brad and Pete Foley are hooking us up with a generator to run all the blowdryers, Stila, Delux, and Cover Girl all agreed to donate products in generous quantities and Nigel from Frend's beauty supply gave us tons of stuff.

We are still working on the food donations and I haven't even started with clothing donations yet.....but we have 2 drop off sites.....one is at the Shelter in Echo park ( 1650 Rockwood ...90026 ) and the new one is at Noni on Larchmont! Go Bory!!

Janet Hasse is heading up the very fancy wardrobe stylist dept...... She has it pretty much all set up.

Heather Levine is doing some producing.....hitting up expendable companies and such...

Sam Music.....working on food donations...I think Whole Foods is gonna donate some stuff...go Jeannie!

That's about it for now......

If you want to volunteer...sign up here and choose either 0152 or 0153...... Or email me.

It feels great to give!
