Funny story. Do you guys remember in the post by Morgan Henzlik when I told you Nikole Morrow-Pettus, my talented makeup artist, reconnected us? Well apparently I have quite the eye for spotting Nikole's work. Last month I was at a meeting called Girls on Fire, and Keisha Noel (though I did not know her name at the time) walked through the door She was glowing. Keisha is a BEAUTIFUL woman, but there was something about her makeup... I knew Nikole did it. Nikole was on maternity leave at the time, so it was a stretch. In fear of appearing totally crazy, I took a gulp of wine and leaned over and said, "Do you by any chance know Nikole Morrow-Pettus?" Keisha's face lit up (more than it already was) as she told me that Nikole was a dear friend and was at her house that morning doing her make up! Keisha had just come from the launch of her jewelry line at Neiman Marcus, and Nikole did her make up for the occasion. I secretly patted myself on the back for my makeup knowledge as I totally fan girl-ed about Nikole. As the conversation progressed, I learned that Keisha and I both loved Nikole, we were both moms, and we both loved jewelry. It wasn't long before I asked her if I could feature her in the 10 Questions series, and she happily agreed! I went to her website and fell in love with her jewelry line, KZ Noel, and I think you will as well.
