Happy March!throw the greatest spring shindig with your favorite people
in the sunshine – you’re welcome.
I hope you have the best March, I
mean that. I hope that something
good comes your way or you
fight a fear that’s been holding
you back. I hope you spend time
with the people who mean the
most to you, and I hope that you
find gratitude for each day we’re
given. I hope that you give back
where and when you can, and I
hope you soak up the sunshine
for all it’s worth.
Happy reading!
One of my favorite times of the year is here! I know I say that
almost every month, maybe because I’m just in love with
life, but spring has arrived and it really is a beautiful time
of the year – except for all of the allergies. I love watching
everything bloom and start to turn green as the warmer air
makes its way in, and finally getting back outside to enjoy
the outdoors. It’s also the time of year when I slowly switch
back to clothing other than leggings as pants (yes, they’re
pants – I’ll fight you on this). This month we showcased
clothing from local stores, along with absolutely amazing
flowers from the talented Tony Foss. It just seemed fitting
that spring fashion and flowers accompany each other; it’s
also a really great excuse to stare at and smell beautiful
flowers for hours ( just kidding … kind of).
We think it’s important to always keep you prepared. Ladies,
we break down makeup brushes so you’re never using
the wrong one, and also give you some of the best tips on
building a fashion first aid kit. You never know when you’re
going to need to treat a stain, get rid of static or hold up a
broken zipper. Lastly, you’re going to be well equipped to

Spring
fresh flower & fruit centerpiecesCredit: Kristin Vanzant Photography via cedarwoodweddings.com
One of the greatest things about spring is having a wide selection of gorgeous fresh flower types and colors available. Choose fruit and flowers in similar hues that will im-press your guests on a simple white tablecloth. If you want to see your guests’ faces at this get-together, don’t make any centerpiece taller than 12 inches.
Warmer temps are arriving, the outdoors
are greening up, flowers are blossoming
and the social season has begun! We put
together some of our favorite things to
help you throw an amazing spring shindig.
Whether you keep it simple or kick it up a
notch, let’s celebrate spring’s arrival!

FABRIC GARLANDPhoto Credit: www.whatdandidnext.com
Looking for a fun way to decorate on an empty wall, above a dessert table or in between two green trees? Make this simple fabric garland out of cloth or ribbon.
SUPPLIES:• Ribbon or fabric
• Scissors
• Rope or string
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Cut each strip of fabric or ribbon to roughly 16 inches.
2. Measure and cut a rope or string to the length you want it to reach.
3. Tie each strip of fabric or ribbon in a single knot along the rope.
4. Go back through and cut some pieces to be shorter than others,
so the lengths vary.
5. Hang up and enjoy!
ROSEBUD PAPER NAPKINSCredit: rajeesood.blogspot.com
This creative trick couldn’t be easier, and honestly you can use this for any season by just changing the color of the napkin.
Grab a simple paper napkin and start rolling. That’s literally it! Roll up your pa-per napkins and place in a bowl standing up, so it looks like a basket of flowers.

How to Build a Fashion FIRST AID KITWhen it comes to fashion, we think it’s best to be proactive instead of reactive. Making sure you can rise to any problem is a bonus. Whether it’s a scratch, a stain, a rip, or static, we have some simple yet must have items to keep in your Fashion First Aid Kit to keep you ahead of the game.
SUPER GLUEThis extreme glue can come in handy for a lot of fixes, even in the fashion world. Put a small dot of super glue on a loose bead or sequin that you don’t have time to sew back on before an event, important meeting or big night.
CLEAR POLISHGot a run in your tights from running to your latest meeting? A light coat on the tear will ensure the tights don’t continue rip-ping throughout your busy day, until you can get to the nearest store or get home to trash them.
BLACK SHARPIEDig in your desk and find a black Sharpie to keep on hand. These are great for filling in scuffs on your black heels or shoe soles. Wearing a dark manicure color? If it chips right before an
important moment, use a Sharpie to fill in the chip until you can get it repaired. No one but you will notice.
DRYER SHEETSIn the drier months, static is such a nuisance. Keep a couple of dryer sheets in your kit to kill that annoying static cling that makes your dress stick to your body and your hair stand up. Run one along the inside of your dress/skirt or through your hair.
SAFETY PINSSafety pins are the quickest way to temporarily fix rips, tears and zipper malfunctions. Keep a few on hand – you never know when you’ll need one to keep your clothes staying on properly.
so6ix.com | MARCH 2016 19
DOUBLE STICK TAPEIn a pinch, double-sided tape can be a quick fix for failing hem-lines and a way to remove balled-up lint. It can even keep the tatas in place. Put a small strip on the inside of a deep V or strapless top/dress and it’ll stick the other side to your skin – keeping everything concealed and where it’s supposed to be.
HANGER FOAMThat annoying foam that comes on the top of hangers from most dry cleaners can actually be your friend in a time of need. Often our clothes that have to be put on over our heads get messed up with deodorant or even makeup stains. Tear off the foam from a hanger to add to your stash. Just rubbing it on the fabric will help remove deodorant, food and makeup stains.
WET CLOTHSWhen you get these at a messy crab dinner or from a drive-thru, don’t throw them away. These individual towelettes are great for cleaning dirty spots or scuffs on your shoes. They can even spot-clean clothes or loosen too-tight rings. Lastly, they’re good for exactly what they say – washing your hands off if you can’t get to a bathroom.
COFFEE FILTEROf course, caffeine comes first on a hectic day, but throw a plain unused coffee filter in your purse or makeup bag. They’re great for absorbing extra shine or oil on your face. Some say they’re better than the pricey drugstore oil-blotting sheets.

When finding your way to J. Bruner’s Haunted House, you drive down a road that makes you question what lies ahead. A forested
drive eventually reveals this long-standing Oklahoma gem. One of my favorite things about this spot is that you feel like you’re not in
the city anymore, when really you’re almost in the heart of it. Just a stone’s throw from Remington Park and Adventure road, this old
house that has been open for over 50 years recently came under new ownership and got a much-needed makeover, all while keeping
its haunted history in play. The carefully crafted menu is anything but spooky. You’ll find the very best corn-fed Angus beef, which is
27 days wet-aged, hand-cut daily, and seasoned and charbroiled to perfection. One of their signatures is the Batter-Fried Lobster Tail.
Yes, battered and fried! Don’t knock it till you try it, it’s phenomenal. You’ll also find fresh, crisp salads, lobster mac and cheese, stuffed
mushrooms and delightful desserts on the menu. With so many brand-new restaurants popping up all over town it’s easy to forget the
old classics, but J. Bruner’s is not one to be written off, trust us. The revamp has been successful in many ways, and it’s given new life
to an old dig with a rich history. The secluded eatery is ideal for special occasions like Valentine’s Day, birthdays, anniversaries, Easter
and of course Halloween. However, as it features an abundance of food options and price points, we recommend you treat yourself
on just a typical Thursday, because you deserve it. Your belly will thank you! J. Bruner’s at the Haunted House is a pleasant surprise, a
much-welcomed revival and an intriguing experience that will have us coming back for more.

MONI’S 17200 N. May Ave. #700,
Edmond, OK 73012405.285.5991 • monisokc.com
This restaurant had been Moni Kaba’s dream since the age
of 15 in Italy. The original restaurant was actually started in
Texas. A new branch in Edmond is now being run by highly
qualified John and Rachel Foster, who have 12 years of
restaurant experience, including working under Gordon
Ramsay’s Sous Chef in Los Angeles. They’re carrying on
Moni’s tradition while he tends his restaurants in Texas.
This eatery is serving up a little East Coast-style food here
in the South. They’re doing up delicious homemade lunch,
dinner and dessert in a fun and comfortable atmosphere. We
absolutely love the Capellini Di Moni pasta dish, tossed with
sautéed onions, mushrooms, Canadian bacon and tomatoes
in pink sauce – so good! They have baked pasta, chicken
and veal entrées, seafood entrées, brick-oven pizzas and
delicious salads. There is something for everyone!

BIG TRUCK TACOS530 N.W. 23rd St.,
OKC, OK 73103405.525.8226 • bigtrucktacos.com
After starting out with just one truck and a small brick-and-
mortar restaurant, Big Truck Tacos has taken the city by storm.
In only their second year of business, Big Truck was voted
America’s Favorite Food Truck in a nationwide contest on the
Food Network. People will drive in from all over to stop at their
shop on 23rd Street, where they’re serving up delicious tacos
that are always in demand and queso that’s not to be missed.
They’re using only the freshest ingredients and catering to
different tastes by combining flavors from every spectrum.
One of their most popular tacos is the Flaming Lips: hickory
smoked tongue with pico de gallo, sliced avocado and queso
fresco. If you aren’t feeling the whole tongue thing, you’re
safer with their delicious Fried Shrimp Taco, the Rita’s Chicken,
with citrus-marinated grilled chicken, or the Crispy’cado.
Being in a landlocked state in the middle of the country, you
would think it would be impossible to find authentic ethnic
foods, but you’d be wrong. We have many restaurants serving
up dishes of different heritages, and Gopuram is one of them!
You’ll find authentic Indian cuisine at Gopuram, and it’s so
delicious that they had to open up a second location in the
booming Memorial Road district on the northwest side of
town. They’re creating northern and southern Indian cuisine
with unique flavors and spices. You won’t find boring and
bland dishes here; everything is homemade from the heart.
Nearly half their menu is vegetarian: try the Malai Kofta. For the
non-vegetarians, we recommend the Tandoori Chicken. Stick
around for the homemade desserts and beverages.
CLARITY COFFEE 431 W. Main St.,OKC, OK 73102
405.252.0155 • claritycoffee.com
Clarity Coffee is downtown OKC’s newest coffee paradise,
borne from the Willinghams’ decade-long obsession with
coffee. They met and fell in love in coffee houses, and
eventually realized a coffee shop would be their future,
as well. At Clarity, they’re getting into the details of coffee
science and extracting the most delicious coffee possible.
Great coffees and espressos in a friendly and comfortable
setting – our kind of place! Need a space to work quietly?
They have that too. They like to keep it interesting by offering
a specialty drink each month. In January, they offered a Blood
Orange Latte, made with a homemade blood orange syrup –
YUM. Just another reason to stop by each month (or every
day!). We can’t get enough of local coffee shops.

MAKEUP BRUSH 101FAN BRUSHThis brush is perfect for lightly dusting on powder, like high-lighter or bronzer. It can also be used to dust away excess product, like eyeshadow fallout.
For the most natural-looking bronzer or highlighter application, apply in areas of your face where the sun naturally hits – forehead, top of nose, top of cheeks, chin, and don’t forget your neck!
TIP:
TIP:
TIP:
TIP:
FOUNDATION BRUSHThis brush is used for applying liquid foundation, applying con-cealer or blending cream products. It creates a natural finish with light to medium coverage.
For flawless foundation application, it’s best to ap-ply in a circular motion or with small back and forth brush strokes.
FLAT TOP FOUNDATION BRUSHJust like the foundation brush, this brush can also be used to apply foundation but gives more of an airbrushed look from the densely packed top. This brush, however, is best used with powder foundations, rather than liquid or cream.
For the best look, buff onto face in a circular motion.
ANGLED BRUSH – CONTOUR BRUSHThe angle on this brush allows for precise contouring along the cheekbones. This is a super soft brush that is best for cream and powder rather than liquid.
Choose a contour color that is a shade darker than your skin to achieve the most sculpted features.

TIP:
BEAUTY BLENDERThis fun sponge is used for blending in foundation and other liquid products in all areas of the face, including contouring. It creates a sheer coverage.
Tip: For lighter coverage, dampen the sponge (don’t get it too wet) before use.
KABUKI BRUSHDon’t underestimate this short sister. This brush is best for all-over face products, especially mineral foundation or setting powder. We don’t really recommend this one for liquid products.
ANGLED EYE LINER BRUSHDip this brush in cream or gel liner or shadow. Hold the brush at an angle so the bristles are flush with your lash line, and drag from the inside corner of your eye along the lash line.
DOME SHADOW BRUSHThis basic eyeshadow brush is used to apply color to the lid or brow-bone. This is the most generic brush that can be used for eyeshad-ow.
If you have a dome shadow brush, keep a fluffy shadow brush on hand to quickly blend out harsh lines in eyeshadow colors.
There's no need to press down super hard with this brush. Lightly fan across face in a sweeping motion or broad cir-cles. It'll leave the powder glowing and glistening.
When switching between eye liner colors, be sure to wash this brush up and let dry completely so colors don't bleed or become clumpy.
