Haute Living Mother’s Day Gift Guide by Loren Ridinger

This photo was taken while we were celebrated Haute Living's 'Haute 100' entrepreneurs and influencers of Miami among them were my dear friends Raquel Perera to my left, Stacy Milon and Paulina Rubio. The dinner took place at the beautiful Mondrian Hotel in Miami and followed by the after party on our boat Utopia III. It's always good look back through out the years and reflect on what you have accomplished and where you are at the present moment.

When looking back do you wish you could have done things differently?

Flashback of the week! Evenings in Vogue with Pharrell Williams 

Last night's 'Evening of Fashion' at the University of Miami organized by UM Launch Pad for Global Entrepreneur Week was filled with aspiring and established entrepreneurs, all for one cause: to help each other succeed and learn how to grow your business. It was very inspiring to see all the future business leaders who attended and also fashion's notables including my dear friend Adriana Castro, Haute Living's Jillian Sanz, Cosabella owner Valeria Campello,Alicia Villasante from Peace Love World and Patric Tardieu from Bogosse. 

If you took anything away from my presentation… let it be that if you should never give up when you have truly discovered your passion in life. Be relentless! Do whatever it takes! I never take no for an answer and neither should you. When you’re in survival mode you’ll do anything to make it. Always be open to possibility and have the courage to believe in yourself. 

Congratulations to Seud Hodzic winner of Loren's World meet & greet it was such a pleasure! 

My latest column in Haute Living Magazine September Issue is out! Are you ready to trade in your summer outfits for Fall's latest fashions? Check out the latest issue of Haute Living for my latest tips and top picks for Fall. Here's an intro from the article: 

Fall's Latest Beauty Trend Metallic Eyeshadow 

" When we last explored the trends as dedicated by the designers that showed on the spring runways, the summer heat was on and fashion was following suit. Now, in the face of fall, we look to embrace new opportunities for dressing in differing color palettes and draping ourselves in rich, and heavier fabrics. From regal shades of purple to bold polka dots to exotic skins, fall calls in the most brazen troops, to boldly go forward in the name of fashion. And accessories have gone similarly bold; structured, boxy handbags top off any ensemble with an " I mean business" sensibility.

Looking towards the New Year always results in feelings about personal development. One sets goals for growth in most aspects of their life and meeting them becomes a sort of real-life obstacle course to be completed over the coming months. And while focusing on business matters or family affairs takes priority, it’s always fun to set the bar high on the top gifts you’d like to acquire as well. Whether buying them for yourself or leaving this tear sheet in a visible locale for a potential giftee, there’s nothing wrong with striving to reward all that other hard work with a little glitz and glamour. From jewels to jeweled handbags, electronics to enviable extras, here’s a short compilation of what’s topping my wish list for 2011.

So proud to be sharing this moment with you!  My husband JR and I made the cover story of one of the most prestigious luxury magazines "Haute Living".  Read a portion of the interview below:

Market America, the brainchild of notable supercouple JR and Loren Ridinger, is all grown up and giving birth to new revolutions of its own.

All big revolutions begin with a good idea; JR Ridinger had a great one. As a result his Market America empire is now massive, and ever expanding to all corners of the globe.

Unlike most, who live a life working to retire and retiring broke, JR Ridinger and his entrepreneurial vein were meant to create world-changing initiatives. Dissatisfied with the idea of financial mediocrity in spite of his hard work, JR was struck with the inspiration he’d need to do just that. “I learned about residual income,” he recalls, “where you do something, make something, build something once, but get paid for it over and over, every week, month, year.” A concept few wouldn’t embrace, given the opportunity, but one that requires the stroke of genius necessary to ignite such cash flow. Since that fateful day, the idea of residual income has acted as a catalyst in JR’s life, sparking the idea that would result in an entire economic movement throughout the world. And JR’s plan to tap into said residual income was less than self-serving. It was meant to create a platform for similar opportunities for anyone who wanted them. Any person with entrepreneurial aspirations would be able to cash in through Ridinger’s program.

It was a special day for me when my girl Eva Longoria Parker arrived to New York on Saturday in support of my Loren Jewels trunk show.  Although, I was a bit under the weather Eva made it extra special :)  We arrived at the London Jewelers store in Manhasset around 2:00 PM, awaiting our arrival was my dear friend and PR prince Jonathan Cheban,  Haute Living magazine's CEO & Publisher Kamal Hotchandani and Candi Udell owner of London Jewelers.

Last night was more than magical….  I attended the Keep a Child Alive 7th annual black ball at Hammerstein ball room in NYC, along with my husband JR and my good friend Kamal to support one of my dearest friends Alicia Keys and her husband producer Swizz Beatz.  (Alicia is the co-founder and global ambassador for Keep a Child Alive a program that provides car and support for families affected by HIV/AID in Africa and India)

I was so excited to see one of my closest friends Market America Convention in Greensboro, NC.  She arrived early Saturday morning to greet fans, walk the concourse with us and to go on stage to speak to a sold out crowd of 25,000 entrepreneurs about social media and our Paid to Shop program.  Kim is an awesome and loving friend, I can't believe she only came in for one day to show her support, she is amazing!  Later on she tweeted "I am inspired thanks to @jrridinger and @lorenridinger" . I am very blessed to have a friend like Kim, not only did she go on stage but she took the time to greet and meet some of her most loyal fans at our convention.  We love you Kim!
