First Up In Our Partner Profiles: Jewelry, Henna Tattoos and Fitness

There's Only 1 You Women's Expo exhibitor profiles: jewelry, henna tattoos and fitness!

Is there anything better than a fall Saturday in Stillwater?

In just over five weeks, the There Is Only 1 You Women’s Expo will be held at the Water Street Inn in Stillwater, Minnesota. Doors are open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., however you probably won’t get turned away or kicked out if you show up early or linger a bit late. Each week leading up to the expo, I will feature several partner profiles. Today, I am excited to tell you about Premier Designs Jewelry, De-vine Designz and Fitogo.

Stacie Jensen, Premier Designs Jewelry

Stacie also happens to be a co-founder of the There Is Only 1 You Women’s Expo. As you can imagine, Stacie has a lot of energy. She's one of my close friends, and I think I have only seen her tired once. Plain and simple, she has a love for jewelry and a passion for helping other women look and feel their best. From a young age, Stacie loved to accessorize and mix and max. This led her to Premier Designs Jewelry, a business that has allowed her to bring personal style into the homes of women.

Stacie doesn’t do the traditional home show, and she doesn’t pressure you into buying. Rather, her number one goal is to make you feel great by offering strategies for updating your existing wardrobe. For instance, Stacie can show you how to take your basic jeans and sweater outfit up a notch by mixing and matching different combinations with one or two pieces of jewelry and other accessories. Simply put, Stacie is thrilled when you are thrilled.

Stacie says that Premier’s Holiday Line is nothing short of spectacular. She will be featuring these wonderful holiday looks at the expo – just picture it: the many ways to wear holiday jewelry, whether for a casual party with the girls or a swanky black dress event.

Jane Mannetter, De-vine Designz

I’m just going to come right out and say that I think henna designs are awesome. They can be as simple or as ornate as you would like. They can be applied anywhere on your body. And, they eventually wash off. The henna design Jane created for me at last spring’s women’s expo was beautiful and fun.

Jane’s business is diverse. While most customers know her for her henna body art services, she also has theme décor, costumes and other party-related items for rent and/or for sale.

Jane established De-Vine Designz nearly 20 years ago. Her children were small, and she saw a need for an activity director of sorts – someone who could provide activities at special events such as birthday parties.

At the 2012 There Is Only 1 You Spring Wine and Charity Dessert Fashion Show, her remarkable henna tattoos were featured on the models walking the runway. Jane coordinated the henna designs flawlessly with the models’ clothing designs.

Do you have a special event in mind? A henna tattoo can be the perfect statement piece or the perfect complement for your outfit.

Jane says that she will have pre-made henna cones for sale at the fall expo. These are a great gift for “doodlers!” Expo attendees can also stop by her booth at the expo and have Jane apply a henna tattoo in just minutes.

Marcia Laces, fitogo, where every BODY is beautiful 

Marcia Laces has a passion for helping women get more healthy and fit. She focuses not just on the physical aspect of this but the mental and emotional aspects as well. With fitogo, Marcia has succeeded in building a platform for women to bond and connect – all while getting fit. It’s no secret that women are busy with their families, careers and households. Too often, women forget to nurture their friendships, often placing their health and their friends on the back burner. At fitogo, Marcia brings women together to get fit and to renew female connections.

There’s something special you should know about Marcia: she believes in herself, and she believes in successfully changing women – helping them attain their goals and hold themselves accountable mentally, emotionally and physically. She devotes 100% to every club member. As a member, she will get to know you personally, she will listen to you, and she will care about you. She will not just take your money and wish you good luck. Nope, not Marcia. Instead, she will provide you with a safe, fun and nurturing environment to workout.

 Marcia says, “Come and meet me at the women’s expo and learn about fitogo. There will be some giveaways, too – a free one year gym membership, free Yo-la-tee classes and free water classes. There will also be free hugs. I love hugs!”
