Jennie Garlington
Philanthropist, Entrepreneur, Volunteer, Environmentalist, and one Super HauteMomma!
Hope Unlimited - www.hopeunlimited.us
Jennie Garlington (shown here with daughter Hope) is truly worthy of the Haute Spot! Not only is she a busy mother to her three beautiful children; Anna (7), Hope (4) and Peek (2), but she juggles serious efforts to help improve our world. From previously producing documentaries at CNN in the Environmental Unit to all of her volunteer work associated with the Turner Foundation, Captain Planet, The Lexington Foundation, and many other amazing organizations, Jennie is one dedicated haute momma to be admired.
Hope Unlimited is just another way Jennie is giving back to society. This venture began as a way to financially support children’s charities. She has the opportunity to make gorgeous clothing and support children’s causes around the world – all the proceeds from Hope Unlimited are donated. If you haven’t seen the Hope Unlimited Collections, visit the site today to find out why we think it is so Haute!
Read on to find out more about Jennie and why we think she deserves the Haute Spot!

e.l.f. – eyes, lips, face - cosmetics are now sold in Kmart stores in certain parts of the U.S. Louisville KMart and a few in IN have started carrying it…so sit tight and if you ‘fancy’ this line of makeup it will soon be in a store near you!…no more shipping fees.
HMS doesn’t think it is the hautest line of cosmetics, but it is very reasonably priced. We really liked the glosses, blushers, brushes, brightening eye liners and lipsticks. We were not fans of the eyeshadows, mascara or foundations (hydro tint), but the concealer isn’t bad.
Check out of e.l.f’s ‘As Seen In’ mentions:…not bad

The store currently known as RAVE in Fayette Mall is becoming Max Rave by the end of August! Right now everything in the store is 50% off except for their new shipments of Max Rave / BCBG clothing, again, which will fill the store by end of August!! Yes, that means BCBG Girls and other BCBG brand shoes too!!!
As reviewed by many fashion blogs and websites such as Fashion Windows, it was announced last year that BCBG Max Azria Group Inc., which previously owned 30 percent of Max Rave LLC, acquired the remaining 70 percent equity interest from Guggenheim Corporate Funding LLC.

Max Rave, which currently operates 488 stores under the names Rave, Rave Girl and G+G, will be a subsidiary of BCBG Max Azria. Another step in BCBG’s strategy of expanding brands and channels of distribution. The majority of Max Rave’s stores and related selling materials are being rebranded with the Max Rave label.
