Dear Girlfriends,
Being ‘smart’ with my smart phone has been an asset in my everyday life. Going from client meetings to scheduling events, we’ve been able to navigate, stay in touch and remain balance while toting our smart phone.

We can go from balancing our lives as busy moms, to arranging a date night with our husband by text or email – its crucial when you only have a few minutes to spare but not enough time to swipe and dial. Yet, when needing to chat, simply make the telephone call or text ‘call me’ –it works all the time for those who want to be ‘in touch’ with a voice on the other end.

Fashionista Monica on Smartphone
Cell phones have become a key part of our lives. And making yourself available and personal on a daily basis takes effort, discipline and time. When scheduling a fashion event to attend with other colleagues, we can share contacts or send a group text message. Our cell phones have been a device you can take anywhere.
We can’t live or breathe without our cell phones in today’s world. Its our connection to clients, colleagues, strategic partners, fashion innovators – let alone family and friends. The cell phone has gone from a luxury to a necessity – and personally puts us more in touch with those near and far. Our personal relationships and business meetings seem to thrive due to our daily ‘online’ connections and when we actually get to see that person we’re in touch with them directly.
All in all, cell phones and smart phones take us around the word and back – all in an instant.
Until the next adventure,
Monica
