Welcome to the new LVCMag! I can’t tell you in words (although I am going to try!) how thrilled I am to share all of our hard work with all of you! This project has been a labor of love from the beginning. As Editor in Chief I started with a vision of a website that would allow any woman to feel at home. A place to find everything from the latest fashion trends, beauty products, recipes for parties and even relationship advice! La Vie Cherie, meaning “the darling life” and “the cherished life” in French, is the perfect name for a group of women who want to have an online magazine that combines style with substance. Each member of the LVC staff is passionate about what we do and uses their individual talents to create a fabulous online magazine!

As you’ve probably realized the entire site isn’t up yet…I was just too excited to wait! Which means you have to check back over the next month as section after section goes live. It’s like watching a skyscraper built in front of you, we have the foundation and are now building our way to the top! So please don’t despair we want to get everything up just as bad as you want to see it! I can’t thank you enough for joining our community here at LVCMag and we want to hear from you! So email us with everything from comments to style questions! And make sure you send in your “Avenue Debut” picture of your favorite outfit to have a chance to be on the site and win fabulous prizes!

Just like our website life isn’t always perfect. I learned that quickly and most of the time the curve balls you’re thrown don’t exactly knock first…they fly through your life like a tornado! It’s at that moment when you have a choice: you can choose to fight and or you can quit. It’s as simple as that! Making the choice to fight for what you want may not be the easy road to take, but I can assure you it’s the most rewarding! As for me LVCMag is not only my reward, but it’s also my “Road Not Taken”. This was not the life I had planned, but after a curve ball of West Nile Virus I had no choice but to take this road. “I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference”. I am so thankful for the vision of LVCMag and am so blessed to be able to absolutely love what I do! This may not be the road I thought I would take, but usually the less traveled road is so much more challenging, intriguing and just way more fun! I want LVCMag to be a refuge for women. For fashion to be able to brighten their day and for inspirational stories to give each person extra encouragement! All of us love fashion, style, beauty, food (the list goes on and on!), but most of all we love life and are living it to the fullest! Join us at LVCMag!
