Hello Everyone!

Wow the past few weeks have flown by! It seems unbelievable that I have only spent two weekends at my own home since I was crowned your Miss United States All World Beauties 2011! Please feel free to read about my favorite events so far!

Where on earth is Miss United States All World Beauties?

2011 Bike 4 Breath

On July 23^rd I was able to attend Breath California’s 20^th annual Bike 4 Breath. Breath California focuses on educating schools and the community about lung health,  

Bike 4 Breath is an annual fundraiser Breath California puts on to help support their efforts. While I was there I cheered on the bikers and hand out the top team awards! I also got to meet Allen Martin, CBS channel 5 news anchor for San Francisco.

On July 24^th I was able to bike across the golden gate bridge for the first time.
As you can imagine, the views were breath taking!

Homecoming celebration

The week of July 30th I was able to have my homecoming celebration. It was so nice to finally celebrate my win with family and friends!

 Soma Intimates National Bra Donation Event

Did you know that bras are the least donated but most needed item for women in shelters?

On August 4^th I left Nevada to support Soma Intimates Bra donation event inside Sacramento California Arden Fair Mall. Through my wonderful sponsors and followers like you I was able to collect seven bags of brand new and gently used bras in just one week! A special thank-you to Jolie Intimates for making the fifty new bras (valued at 600 dollars) possible! I know the women from St. John’s shelter will be so grateful. 

If you or someone you know has a few gently used bras and would like to donate them please mail them to:

San Francisco Fashion

On August 6^th I left Sacramento, Ca to head to San Francisco for San Francisco Fashion Week! 

I was able to experience the many upcoming fall trends and meet some incredible people. I felt honored to be surrounded by so many talented designers. 

While in San Francisco I was also able to attend the 2011 Mélange Fashion Show. There was a wide range of designers from New York, Australia, Boston, and more to showcase their beautiful collections!

The official make up sponsor was Sephora and of course they did a fabulous job. One of the great things about the show was that they focused on diversity and highlighting models of all sizes, ethnicity's, and ages which is so important for people to see and acknowledge. 

The show also collected 10% of their profits to donate to Breast Cancer Action! For additional information you can look at their video- just click the link on the left hand side. 

This dress pictured here was one from the Lorian Lindsay collect. For more information on their clothing line visit: http://www.lorianlindsay.com/

Thank-you to Eric for letting me attend this event! I had a wonderful time.

If you missed the show this year be sure to check the Mélange web page on google for upcoming details on the 2012 show.
