January 20th was a day in American history that brought everyone closer together, no mater what color, background or education. It was a day when everyone shared in supporting our new President. A man who came from a home with no father. A home where his grandmother was his support and mentor.
If you saw the inauguration you would have seen so many different leaders of our country. Many of them woman who were involved in todays celebration in roles that no other woman in history have been involved in before. This country is going through changes. Good changes. It's a country that now honors woman in new roles of leadership.
As a mom of a Quinceanera and/or mentor of a young woman, it's time for you to guide your daughter or mentee for her to realize how special she is. Let her know she has the opportunity to fulfill her dream. A dream that she has talked about. And maybe you thought she was silly, when she told you she wanted to be a doctor, or a teacher or a attorney or whatever career path she mentioned.
Did you think to yourself... 'it would be so difficult for her to try and get there. I don't want her to be disappointed.' Did you want her to take the easy path. A path she knows and she won't fail.
Read the words of President Lincoln.
"You can have anything you want - if you want it badly enough. You can be
anything you want to be, do anything you set out to accomplish, if you hold
to that desire with singleness of purpose."
Be there for your daughter, especially as she celebrates her Quinceanera. Support her when she discusses her dreams with you. Believe in her dreams. She will love you more for being there and for your love and support.

How a Quinceanera Can Look like a Million on a Small Budget
Have you wondered why some of your friends and family are spending sooo much money on a Quinceanera's dress. A dress their daughter will only wear once?
Choosing the right style and color is more important than the price tag for a Quinceanera to look like a Princess.
I get phone calls all the time that the Quinceanera's sponsors donated money for her dress and they spent $1,000 on it. WoW...What kind of message is that for a girl who is planning on taking her first step as a young adult? As a young adult she will be responsible for making more decisions for herself.
After her Quince Celebration, when she says to her mother she wants to buy a pair of jeans for $150. And she gets upset when her mother says 'no' we can't afford it. The Quinceanera will be totally confused. She will be thinking her dress hanging in her closet cost $1,000. The jeans will only cost 15% of the price of her dress. And she can wear her jeans at least 100 times.
How can we expect our daughters to understand the value of things and make the best choices when they get mixed messages. Check out the great values of our designer Quinceanera dresses.
Do you have questions and need some assistance give me a call toll free: 1-866-478-4326.
All the best,
Priscilla

How to Choose Your Quinceanera Dress
I receive calls all the time from Quinceanera's planning their special Quinceanera Celebration. They are looking for a dress they have been dreaming about since they were a little girl.
Most of the time they have an idea of the color and style of the dress they want. But, when I start to ask them some questions about their body type, they realize what they had in mind to wear would not be the best for them.

Quinceanera's Diary The Party Day
Are you curious how a Quinceanera feels after her party is over? Click: My Quince Diary and read Lily's diary blog entry about her Quince party.
Her Quince party was held at home for friends and family. Her story tells the good and the bad. We can learn from an unexpected experience that occurred during her party.
We have all heard about party crashers and how this can ruin a party. Read about how Lily's mother took control of the situation.
I would like to hear about what your thoughts are about preventing this from happening. I'm going to write some articles and blog entries about what to do regarding party crashers.
As a reminder if you live in Los Angeles I hope you can join me at Barnes & Noble at the Grove on Sunday - November 9th at 2PM for my book review presentation. For all the information go to my blog - Ask Priscilla.
Till next time,
Priscilla
