Most Haunted Cities In America

The world is not a fun place right now. I am over hearing about the election, I still cant believe these are our two options. I hate logging on to social media and seeing the Kardashians every single day. I am getting to the point where I want to delete my social media all together. The best thing about leaving the country is that I can turn off my phone, stay away from work emails, ignore social media and enjoy my surroundings. We usually write about promotional models, trade shows, events, promotions, and beauty tips but I don't want to today. It's October and will be Halloween soon so I thought this article was fitting. I have been to half of these cities and live in one, I had no idea Chicago was so haunted. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/a6942194/most-haunted-us-cities/ Enjoy! Team Pink Avenue

Pumpkin Spice Drinks We All Need ASAP

The debate is on and I honestly feel like this can't really be happening, is this real? Are these our options? I can't say much about this because it's not the right place but I am in shock. This blog isn't about trade shows, events or promotional models today. With so many bad things happening in Chicago and the World I think we all just need a drink, if you are 21+ of course. With October coming up this weekend and pumpkin spice taking over everything I thought this article was fitting. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/food-cocktails/g2253/fall-cocktails/ Enjoy, we all deserve it!

Is Your "Sexy" Picture Unprofessional?

It is so hard to pay attention to the media right now. There are numerous rape cases that are not being taken seriously, and this morning I read that a judge said, "why couldn't you just keep your knees together?" This blog doesn't have anything to do with trade shows or events but it does apply to promotional models that deal with sexual harassment daily. A friend posted an article on FB last night and I don't think the article is well written but I do see the point. There was a time many years ago that I posed for Maxim, Stuff, FHM and any other mens magazine out there. I didn't think that it would come back to haunt me. When I graduated I struggled to find a job and I didn't understand why. I didn't even get interviews. I believe the reason is that there are a lot of women in HR in the marketing field and women are easily intimidated and extremely competitive. Why would a woman want to interview a Maxim model? This article is poorly written but I understand the point. Is a woman not supposed to post a bikini picture because it is seen as being sexual? That is crazy! Women deal with so many body issues and try to be someone they are not because this is what they see. Every single magazine has a beautiful model that has been airbrushed and we are expected to look like this. The beauty industry makes billions of dollars a year. Women spend money on make up, tanning salons, nail salons, waxing appointments, hair appointments, wardrobe, and plastic surgery to look like these magazine covers. Women suffer from body issues and this results in low self esteem and less respect for themselves. Why are women expected to look like this? When they do look like this they are expected to cover up? This doesn't make any sense and is clearly a double standard. Nothing gets me heated like a post about how women should act, what they should do, how they should look and the worst comment of all, how they should smile more. Here is the link to the article I'm talking about. http://thetab.com/us/2016/07/06/sexy-photo-not-make-unprofessional-30401 Team Pink Avenue
