We’ll be on the NBC 10 local evening news tonight!

We are so excited to be featured on the NBC 10 evening news tonight in a story with Tracy Davidson about deals on Back-to-School essentials. We are estimating that we will be on in the 5:30pm half-hour so keep your eyes (and DVR’s!) peeled!

This is a LIVE segment, so please pray for me to be calm and clear and collected. Editing my flubs is not an option tonight 🙂

When we found out that we would be on NBC 10 for this story, I had a small panic attack about what to wear on TV (as I am sure many of us would). I mean, its broadcast to the entire region …. a girl’s gotta look put together, right!?!?

So, when you need to look stylish yet comfortable, where do you turn? You turn to none other than our very own Fashion Columnist, Melissa from bStylish and Girlymama.com. As you’ve seen in her Trendy Thursday posts here, Melissa has a great eye for fashion while also focusing on affordability. I knew that I wanted to wear something that was already in my closet, but wasn’t sure what the best pieces to choose would be. So, Melissa came over yesterday afternoon to do a styling meeting.

After some review of my wardrobe, we settled on a great combination. I’ll be wearing this great teal sweater with rose detail over a white tank along with some *slimming* (cough, cough) black slacks and pumps. Melissa really liked the sweater because of its color pop and I really like it because I feel comfortable in it (and I scored it for $12.99 at Marshalls!).

Here’s a preview of the outfit that you’ll be seeing me in a little later this afternoon when I meet Tracy Davidson. For all things fashion … please keep reading Melissa’s Trendy Thursday column here and follow along with her fabulous fashion commentary at bStylish and on GirlyMama.com

And, come back and see us soon for lots of fun back to school tips and tricks that we’ll be posting!
