Whitney's Wish List
It's that time of year again... where I share my top gifts of 2016. This year I have been introduced to so many more products because of our twins, so naturally we had to add a baby section! Welcome to Whitney's Wish List!
CLOTHING
My style really depends on the day... When I'm in studio, the look is down to business and at home it's something that you can easily rub milk stains out of (LOL). My favorite go to dress company is Teri Jon. They dress me in the studio and their looks truly are one of a kind. These dresses can easily transform from day to night with a simple change in shoes, shawl or accessories.

FURNITURE
Welcome to my studio. When folks watch my show, I want it to be a discussion that people would like to join. I want our viewers and guests to feel right at home. With that being said, the look of my studio had to be professional and welcoming. We chose Modern Classics Furniture for our new set design in our spring 2017 season. When it comes to style and feel they are my choice. PS- free shipping for order over $2,500!

THE COMPLETE LOOK-
Now time it's time for one of my favorite sections because the businesses below are all woman owned and have supported my show for years. GLOW GIRL GLOW- Celebrity Skin is offering 25% off all services this month. They spray tan me each week for the show and give me that constant vacation glow. Next up is EGA Salon & Spa for nails. You can't beat a $23.00 peppermint pedicure and a $26.00 no chip manicure. Visit them at 3009 Halsted in Chicago.
BABY-
We had to create a baby section this year for our new twins. My go to skin product, is the Leah Chavie Baby Line! She has safe products for babies that will leave you worry free and the babies smelling great. She's offering 20% off the baby kit of 4 products (shampoo wash, lotion, body oil, bottom balm).
GRAND FINALE-
This year I am so excited to top my wish list with VOLVO! When we found out we were pregnant we immediately thought of "safety" when we started searching for the perfect family vehicle. After a ton of research and a lot of test drives we landed at Volvo Oak Park. WE LOVE our V60 and are so excited to share this special with you. They are offering"We Make Your First 3 Payments" (excludes xc90 & s90). If you buy or lease a Volvo now thru February 2017, your first 3 payments are free. (See our special announcement with Volvo and our twins below).
We hope our Wish List is a great guide for amazing gifts this holidays season. It's so easy to get caught in the holiday hustle & forget to truly enjoy this special time. Remember the best gift to give is love!

Giving Our Four-Legged Friends A Voice
Earlier this year, my sweet Puffy Doo-Little had a back injury that almost took her life. This would have never been a near death experience if she could have told me what was wrong. During her recovery I got to thinking about the challenges our four-legged friends go through and that's when Cari Meyers came to mind and I knew we must have her on a show.
Cari Meyers is that voice for animals and founded the Puppy Mill Project (PMP). For those of you who haven’t heard, the Puppy Mill Project educates the public by spreading the message about puppy mill cruelty and providing age-based interactive lectures and presentations. According to the PMP, Ninety Nine percent (99%) of all pet store puppies are puppy mill puppies. Most people are unaware of this and the Puppy Mill Project is changing that fact. She has worked with legislation and Chicago celebrities to help spread the word. Cari is currently working on "The Puppy Mill Project" book, where she is having celebrities and their pets take pictures. This book will be sold to raise funds for her cause and create more awareness. (YES, Puffy and I will be in the book). There are many ways for our viewers to get involved including several events throughout the year.
We will also be speaking with Chicago City Clerk Susanna Mendoza, who is a proud supporter of the Puppy Mill Project. Susanna and Cari have been working hard to pass legislation to help our four-legged friends here in Chicago. For more information on their journey check out this article- (http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2014-03-05/features/ct-remarkable-cari-meyers-20140305_1_city-pet-stores-pet-lemon-law-animal-cruelty)
Chicago City Clerk Susanna Mendoza
We have doctors in the studio too from Veterinary Specialty Center. Dr. Melissa Pales and Dr. Brett Grossman, will be speaking with us about the dangers of buying dogs from puppy mills. From long term health issues to common illnesses, they’ll show us why buying a puppy mill dog can lead to heartbreak no pet owner should be forced to deal with.
Finally I just have to say, one word: Adoption! Adoption, adoption, adoption. There are so many furry friends stuck in shelters every single day that have been abandoned by or taken from their owners. And guess what? You can help them! Just because a dog isn’t a puppy doesn’t mean they’ll love you any less. All they want is a home to call their own with a loving family.
Big thanks to everyone who came on the show and who speak up for our friends/family who don't have a voice! Remember to tune in Monday nights at 6:30 PM and Sunday morning at 10:30 to Lakeshore PBS [Comcast 239/ RCN 4/ Dish, Direct, AT&T 56]. Have a great week y'all!
