Over the weekend we were invited to a Sip&Sign for our friend Sharelle D. Lowery of ClassyBlackGirl.com Sharelle recently debuted Classy, BlackGirl. A Manners Manual. The Rules...volume one! She is on a mission to keep it classy ladies! "This Manual is for Sophisticated, Urban Girls! Beyond keeping your legs crossed at the ankle, this etiquette guide will make you laugh" My 5 favorite rules from Sharelle: 1. #60 | Smile "Smiling makes you feel good and it makes other people feel good" Sometimes a simple smile can change someone's day, it's infectious...pay it forward! 2. #28 | Please & Thank You Tips: * Always say thank you for everything * Please is required with every request * A nice, genuine smile goes a long way * Give people the treatment that you desire 3. #5 | Leave Leave Leave the lace fronts...alone! Classy, BlackGirl Tip: Natural hair is beautiful too. We really do not NEED anything extra on or in our hair. Try you own hair out for size, put on your lashes and lipstick and real hair! #confidence is Class as well. 4. #8 | Do Not Yell In Public "Yelling is how the uncouth communicate" -Virginia Ann Tumblin (Sharelle's Grandmother) 5. #40| ...everything DID. Fingernails and toes should be neatly groomed at all times. I have always found when I look good I feel good! ..and it's easy to stay classy when you feel good! It was a lovely intimate crowd at Salon De Soul in San Leandro. We mixed, mingled, picked up a signed copy of The Rules and heard Sharelle give us her keep it classy notes! What I love about her, is her passion to educate young woman on how to conduct themselves like ladies, her keep it real attitude, and her beautiful zest for life! Check her out @ www.ClassyBlackGirl.com @ClassySharelle Hope to see you at the next event! Xoxo Naoj
