I love this woman!  No one beats her and her energy!  Aside from taking time out to dress up and look gorgeous, she has time to endorse so many products, write for her column, attend many events, host many events, plan her charity ball, plan her celebrations which are always in theme and have time to stay healthy and exercise – whether it be running or Zumba!  This year was a Zumba party!TEZZAZINGALONGZUMBA (35)
