the change to enter and win a three night trip to

Vegas; all you have to do is buy a $2 Poker Pick

ticket! This month, we had the privilege of dining

at The George atop the Founders Tower. It was

an absolutely delicious dinner in an enjoyable

environment with spectacular views of the city.

I hope you soak up this September for all it’s

worth. My piece of advice to you this month:

“People need to be encouraged. People need to

be reminded of how wonderful they are. People

need to be believed in –

told that they are brave

and smart and capable

of accomplishing all

the dreams they dream

and more. Remind each

other of this.”

Happy Fall Y’all! Wait… did I really just say

that? Where did summer go? Is it just me or does

summer fly by quicker each year? Although I

am a huge fan of the summer months, I’m still

a sucker for a beautiful fall season. Not much

makes my heart happier than cozying up,

pumpkin flavored everything, college football,

and of course fall fashion! Each year, one of

our most popular issues is the fall fashion and

beauty showcase issue. This year we had over

90 entries submitted for hair and makeup, WOW!

Congratulations to the winners and a round of

applause to those not chosen. The talent that

Oklahoma offers constantly impresses me.

In this issue, we take you back through the

years of impressive and not so impressive

hairstyles. The History of Hairstyle Evolution lets

you reminisce through the decades. We’re really

excited to be teaming up with the Oklahoma

Lottery to start bringing you some really great

things. From September 7-October 12, you have Lauren Wright

History of Hairstyles 101EVOLUTION OF HAIR THROUGH THE YEARS

1920s:The Bob/Finger Wave

Shorter than short was the trend. The Roaring ’20s was famous for its flapper style. Women would crop their hair between chin and ear level. The short bob would flow in uniform waves, creating the “finger wave.” This hairstyle was greatly popularized by F. Scott Fitzgerald’s wife, Zelda, which takes us back to the time of the flashy and dazzling “Great Gatsby.”

1930s:Here Come the Curls

Boyish haircuts went out and length came back in. Women embraced their curves in every aspect, hair included. However, it was not typically longer than shoulder-length. Abundant sausage curls and pin curls became the norm. Top with a hat and you’d be set.

1960s:The Bouffant and the

BeehiveHello, hairspray! Big, bigger, biggest: the bouffant was all the rage in the ’60s. Nothing says “big hair” like the beehive. Women couldn’t get enough hairspray, as they teased their hair up into a tall domed shape.

1970s:The Feathered Flip (aka

the Farrah Fawcett)Behold the dynamic duo: the tease and part. This look was a dramatic departure from previous decades. Unlike the tight curls, hairnets, and rolling updos, this look allowed for a more free, soft and flowing style.

1980s:The Perm

The key word here is “crimp.” Crimping irons

were a staple in most homes. They were used

excessively, and

that goes for

hairspray, too.

No one will be

able to forget

the infamous

backcombed

and feathered

bangs. We’re

going to go

ahead and name

this the era of

the hair fail.


History of Hairstyles 1011940s:The Snood

What’s a snood, you ask? It’s a fashionable hairnet. By this time, some women were daringly

growing their hair past their shoulders. While the men were fighting World War II, the women were picking up a lot of extra tasks on the home front. The snood was a fashionable way to keep their longer hair tied up while they worked.

1950s:The Pixie & the Poodle

Glamour and femininity took the main stage during the ’50s. Women deemed straight hair a no-no, desiring a luscious curled look. A cute and fashionable ribbon accompanied curled ponytails. Some women, like Audrey Hepburn, branched out into the fringe with a very short pixie cut. We love Lucy! Lucille Ball introduced the poodle cut.

1990s:The Rachel

Cue the “Friends” theme song. The infamous Rachel Green, played by Jennifer Aniston,

rocked this ’do, and it set the world buzzing. Women all over the country walked into the beauty shop asking for the “Rachel.” This layered and bouncy hairstyle was full of highlights and lowlights.

2000s to Now:

Anything GoesThis is the age of trial and

error. Really, anything goes.

We have the advantage of

decades of hairstyle evolution

and risky combinations. Just

about everything has been

tried. From straight-across

bangs to fishtail braids, from

ombre to pastel colors, from

board-straight to loose beach

waves: it’s all been done (or so

we think!)




everyone’s asking is “how do I win”? Each

Poker Pick ticket displays a 5 card

hand from a deck of 52. All tickets

are computer selected Easy

Pick, players cannot

choose their cards with

this game (because if

you could chances are

we’d all have a Royal

Flush and the Lottery

would be paying out top

prizes all day, they are not

an ATM). To win instantly:

match the cards on your ticket to

one of the winning hands shown at

the bottom of the ticket and you win

up to $10,000; get a hand with jacks or

better and you win a prize. To win nightly:

match at least 2 cards on your ticket to the cards

drawn in the nightly Poker Pick drawing and you

win up to $100,000. Each ticket offers a chance

to win twice, up to $10,000 at the time of purchase

and up to $100,000 later.

The advantage of Poker Pick is that it provides

entertainment value across all types of lottery

players with a single transaction while cleverly

introducing those players to a product line they

may not currently be playing. Customers that

enjoy the thrill of an instant win with Scratchers

can have that same experience with Poker Pick

plus they could win big later. Customers that

believe “good things come to those who wait” for

Poker Pick is

the first hybrid

game for the Oklahoma Lottery,

a cross over ticket that has appeal to

both scratch ticket and traditional number game

players. Consumers have the chance to win twice

with a single $2 ticket: instantly when the ticket is

purchased and then again in the nightly drawing.

“This game is a unique addition to our current

product offering and we hope that it resonates

well with both our scratch ticket and draw game

audiences” said Jay Finks, Director of Marketing

and Administration for the Oklahoma Lottery.

“Currently, Poker Pick’s $100,000 top prize is the

largest of any of our Oklahoma-only games.”

The one hundred thousand dollar question


different. We’ve got another great promotion

planned for later in the year, we’re still working

out the details but it will combine Poker Pick with

another very popular game to offer a prize with

huge brand equity. Stay tuned.” said Finks.

Purchase Poker Pick tickets from any Oklahoma

Lottery retailer starting September 7th. Good luck!

the nightly drawing can still chase that dream but

maybe with a little extra cash in their pocket from

an earlier instant win.

“Poker Pick is a new opportunity to cross

promote current game play styles among our

existing customer base and opens the door for trial

among new audiences. Our hope is that Poker Pick

can lessen the gap between scratch players and

number game players while offering maximum play

value for a $2 purchase,” said Finks.

And to sweeten the pot a little more, the Lottery

is giving away trips to Vegas with the launch of

this new game. From September 7 – October 12

players will receive an entry form with every Poker

Pick ticket purchased that can be mailed in for a

chance to win 1 of 4 trips including roundtrip air, a

3-night hotel stay and $750 spending cash.

“For the first 5 weeks players have the

opportunity to win 3 times with each Poker Pick

ticket. Vegas trips are popular prizes among our

players and we hope this promotion will be no

It’s fall, y’all! We can hardly believe

it, but we’re ready to say bye-bye to the

tanks and shorts and bring in the pants, cardigans,

and boots. This fall we’re all about the various shades of

neutrals – black, grey, brown, beige, charcoal, and cream. With

these quality base shades you can add in just about any color

whether you’re looking for a good pop or a more subtle add in. We

absolutely love a good burnt orange, navy, or purple. We haven’t

jumped into the frigid temperatures just yet so take advantage of a

three-quarter-length sleeve, a light chiffon blouse, or my personal

favorite – the double slit pant. It’s that time of the year where

we can’t get enough of being outdoors in the beautiful

weather, partaking in the traditional fall activities, and

indulging in everything pumpkin flavored. Soak

up fall for all it’s worth – in style!

PUPPY OFTHE MONTH

Newfoundland

This puppy doesn’t stay puppy-sized for long.

The Newfoundland, or “Newfie,” is a large breed

of dog and a true workhorse. Newfies are masters

at long-distance swimming and have lifesaving

instincts. They are strong and obedient, they have

great agility, and they sport a heavy coat that

originally served as protection against icy waters.

PRODUCT PICKSMac Lipstick: Ruby Woo

Red lipstick can enhance a look to make it sophisticated, sexy or trendy—or all three, if it's the bright, matte and insanely cool Ruby Woo. It flatters all skin tones, and even better, it doesn’t transfer to teeth! This one is a keeper.

Bumble and Bumble:

Thickening Hairspray

The perfect three-for-one: give your hair the hold you need with the volume you desire, plus protection from the heat and sizzle of straightening and curling irons.

Essie Nail Polish: Ballet

SlippersPale pink is the new black. This is the perfect color for everyday wear or an important occasion. It will also make an easy transition into upcoming fall color trends.

Maybelline: NY Instant Age

Rewind Eraser Dark Spot

Stop fretting over your dark circles, and stop messing with products that leave you looking the same. Maybelline has come up with the perfect solution. Just a thin coat of this light-reflecting concealer will keep you looking ageless.

Urban Decay: 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil

Looking for the qualities of a liquid liner without the hassle? This eye pencil is just as dark and precise as liquid eyeliner, but goes on with complete ease. Can we get a hallelujah for no smudging!

HEALTHY LIVINGYou’re on your health journey, but of course there are going to be nights when pre-prepped meals or cooking at home isn’t desired or isn’t an option. When you find yourself out to eat you can still follow the ‘clean’ eating guidelines and help to make your dining experience as healthy-friendly as possible.

WITH Scott Do

facebook.com/pages/Scott-Do-IFBB-Pro/426083150803447 instagram.com/scottdo_fitness

TIPS AND TRICKS• Always choose water for your drink, or another drink that doesn’t have added sugars.

• Start your meal with a salad packed with veggies (vinaigrette dressing on the side), to help control hunger and feel satisfied sooner.

• When you receive your large sized portion of an entrée, immediately ask for a to-go box and place half of the meal in the box. This is immediate portion control and gives you a second meal if you wish to eat it again.

• Ask for little or not butter and oil.

• Always ask whether healthy side substitutions are available. Many dishes come with French fries or mashed potatoes, instead ask for a salad, grilled veggies, or fruit. It may require little cost, but it’s worth it.

• Avoid the “extras”: cocktails, appetizers, and bread.

the best of you. If you feel ill, seek professional advice. If dreams are disturbing look at what they are revealing on a deeper level. A new friendship starts after the 22nd.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 - JANUARY 19)Travel plans need to be ironed out clearly especially if you intend to go somewhere new. Research accommodation thoroughly and budget!! Friendships will be part of your need to get out and explore the world. Loads of calls, emails and other text messages might overwhelm you so have a strategy to deal with the influx of information. The new Moon of the 24th indicates a chance for you to recommence something that was begun but not completed. A relationship perhaps?

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 - FEBRUARY 18)This is one of the busiest trends of your life and the full Moon of the 9th may cause undue stress especially i your financial and work spheres. Be prepared with a fall back plan. Activities are centered around frequent meetings, dealing with bosses and planning. Direct your restless mind into new channels. Banking matters are a nuisance but can't be avoided. Take a short break around the 25th.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 - MARCH 20) An emotional bond may be formed between

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 - OCTOBER 22)If you can lift the illusionary veil that surrounds your relationships and see others as they really are, you may be able to avoid a disappointing, deceptive emotional experience. Matters improve after the 4th with Mercury in your Sun sign giving love a boost due to your optimistic attitude. This is a perfect time to consider a personal or business partnership. Health matters are confusing to say the least but solutions are there when the full Moon occurs on the 24th.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 - NOVEMBER 21)Matters are not as they appear on the surface. There is an inclination to be easily influenced and led by others, or suffer betrayal of confidence. You can experience a devitalizing time due to Saturn and Mars. You may also be too trusting, placing yourself at a professional disadvantage which can result in a financial or business loss. Don't be too open with ideas now and wait till after the 20th to give the green light on any new project.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 - DECEMBER 21)During the first week of the month you may come in contact with hospitals or institutions or with people who are emotionally or mentally disturbed and will try to pawn their troubles off onto your shoulders. Avoid letting your imagination get


yourself and a sibling or neighbor after the 10th but don't get too close too quickly. Do not permit your mind to dwell on past slights or what you feel was a personal affront or criticism. Self-control is your theme during September. Personal contacts with the general public will play an important role in your financial picture. You are very sensitive to what the public wants and needs especially after the new Moon of the 24th.

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 19) Emotional and domestic difficulties, especially where women are concerned is indicated this month. They are likely to be a source of irritation or interference with personal plans. This could result in a break-up of close emotional ties -- perhaps a separation from a loved one or parent. The full Moon of the 9th activates your need to resolve emotional issues from the past while the new Moon of the 24th indicates possible new relationships forming.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 - MAY 20)This could be a fun time socially, but much depends upon the effort you put forth into motivating and influencing others. They are apt to rely too much on your personal energy and expertise in the planning of social gatherings. The full Moon on the 9th means your social life is revving up considerably while the new Moon on the 24th shows that your co-workers expect more of you in terms of input.

GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 20)There is an emotional pull between family responsibilities and career interests. You may have to find a way in which to blend the two areas together. This will be are evident between the 18th and 24 when the Moon is full. Changes are likely to affect your immediate personal relationships, through the possibility of moving or travelling. Expect a change in relationships after the new Moon of the 24th.

CANCER (JUNE 21 - JULY 22)Mental or physical activity is pronounced now. There is a desire to expand your mind through new studies, writing, lecturing, or exchange of ideas. You're physically active and may take an interest in new sports such as golf, bowling, racquetball, walking, or jogging but take care as you are also prone to injury. Situations will develop that will take you into many diversified directions at the time of new Moon on the 24th.

LEO (JULY 23 - AUGUST 22)The full Moon on the 9th requires a quick and decisive response on your finances. You may be extremely sensitive this month and confusion over money matters of any kind can create a difficult ego problem. This is not the time to push career matters or enter into new undertakings either. Nor is it suitable for asking favors of others in general, either a parent or boss. The new Moon of the 24th is a better omen for improvement in your affairs and things moving forward again.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 - SEPTEMBER 22)

Safeguard your health by getting regular check-ups at this time and don't

over-stress yourself this month. You feel as though you have to do everything,

especially around the full Moon of the 9th when others expect too much of you.

The new Moon on the 24th indicates new business and financial opportunities

so be quick off the mark when that turn of luck arrives.

Walking into this place [The George] brings

with it such a feeling of nostalgia. The top floor

of the Founders Tower has been a staple of

Oklahoma City for over 60 years and so many

Oklahomans have great memories of this

place. Sitting vacant for the last decade, Mr.

Kevin George seized the opportunity to open

up a great restaurant atop the tower once again. Listening to Mr. George describe his fantastic

restaurant is inspiring as you can hear his pride and excitement about it. Sparring no expense,

he has fully updated it with beautiful decor all throughout, and accentuates the beautiful views

of the city during the top floor dining experience. Bringing in Executive Chef Joshua Valentine,

famous for his time on the Bravo TV show Top Chef, Valentine has created a truly unique and

artistic Prime restaurant. Sitting down with Chef Valentine, he explained his complete love for

this food and being able to be surrounded by the top of the notch ingredients that he loves to

work with. His personal favorites at the restaurants are a toss up between the dry aged ribeye

steak or the chicken dish. Each dish is intricate and beautifully presented, matched by unique

and delicious flavors. Also, The George proudly offers the delights of a New York Pastry Chef,

Chef Shelby Sieg, who is definitely an artist as well and brings desserts unlike any found in the

city. Be sure to try several of her amazing creations on the dessert menu.

Here is what we tasted at The George:

AppetizersCrab Cakes- Fennel Aoli, Radish, Nasturtium

Heirloom Tomato Salad- Heirloom Tomatoes, Smoked Tomato Sorbet, Basil

Beet Salad- Burnt Leek Yogurt, Citrus, Radish, Wild Greens

Foie Gras- Pickled Plums, Pistachios, Brioche

Entrees10oz Prime Filet- cooked medium and seasoned with salt and pepper.

Norman, OK 73069405.329.0377 • facebook.com/victoriaspastashop

Located in the heart of the University of Oklahoma’s Campus Corner, Victoria’s is a go-to restaurant for Norman locals and students alike. For the last 25 years, Victoria’s has followed a “pasta-only” rule, but that doesn’t mean there’s a lack of variety or flavor. Every pasta and sauce is made fresh in-house--very hard to come by these days! We suggest the lasagna rolls, stuffed with shrimp and cheese, or the black pepper crab linguine. Be sure to try their weekly and daily specials: the chefs know what they’re doing. Don’t feel like making the drive to Norman? You’re in luck! They’re opening their second shop on 104th and May in south Oklahoma City. Give this authentic Italian cuisine a try.

Meet Sela! This beauty is making her way

up in the hair world quickly ever since she

began her hair journey back in 2009. Sela

started school at the University of Oklahoma

and quickly realized she wasn’t following

her true passion no matter how big of a

Sooner fan she has been her whole life. She

soon enrolled in Duncan Brothers School

of Hair Design where she excelled past her

classmates quickly and started practicing

cuts, colors, and styles in 2010. She found

her salon home at Cameo Salon and Spa

off of Western and NW 50th. Sela doesn’t

necessarily have a favorite focus in the hair

world. She simply loves doing it all. Her

favorite part of her job is being able to help

the appearance of her clients, which in turn

can help create many positive life changes.

As a hairstylist, it’s important to Sela that

she connects with her clients, and she really

enjoys getting to interact with them on a

daily basis. One piece of advice Sela has

for readers, is to keep up with what’s new,

what’s different, and constantly find and

accept change for your hair. Mix it up, keep it

interesting; for some people that is hard, but

Sela can put you at ease and help with stylish

and creative changes.

When not doing hair, Sela immerses

herself into art. Painting, drawing, creating,

building, and coloring are just among a few

of the art activities you can find her doing.

She’s creative at heart, but her true heart lies

with her family. Sela spends all the time she

can with her family and two sisters. She is

such a foodie. She loves trying new places

and cooking up delicious recipes for friends

and family. For your hair needs, visit Sela at

Cameo Salon & Spa! Phone: 405-990-8317.

STEVE SCHARDEINOwner & Hairstylist of Schardein’s

Meet Steve Schardein! This mastermind of everything hair got his start back in 1976. He had been going to college and went to a hairdresser here in the city that tried to convince Steve of becoming a hairstylist. Reluctant at first, Steve walked into college the morning that semester started and boldly un-enrolled and began his hair journey from that day forward. Over the years, Steve has been able to really connect to his clients and people that come to see him. He takes joy in being able to interact with the clients, aid in enhancing their look, and truly helping them. For Steve it’s not just solely about the clients, but his stylists as well. Throughout the years he’s seen many young girls struggling in the hair world and knew he had to make a difference. Schardein’s is completely employee based, not booth rental like most typical salons. Schardein’s ultimate goal is for each of his stylists to have a custom home, brand new car, have families, and time off to spend with their loved ones. Everyone at Schardein’s starts at the shampoo wall, bathrooms, and towels and eventually works their way up. This growing salon is now at an astonishing 30 stylists and 50 employees! There are future plans for more Schardein’s coming near you and around the United States – stay tuned!

When not busy with hair, Steve is an endurance athlete that can be found bicycling or snow skiing among just a few things. Steve is also a grandfather to his precious grandbabies! He is constantly trying to evolve and grow the salon while staying up to date with the newest techniques, styles, products, etc. He attends hair business classes all over the country and world. He was just recently invited amongst only eight other Americans to a class in Shanghai where he was able to bring the newest education back to his stylists. Schardein’s has been recognized for many awards over the years and most recently was named top five salon designs of the year out of all of the salons in the country. Go Schardein’s! They put in the effort to give people the best service, styles, and newest looks. It’s truly a unique salon experience. Visit them today on N. May and Britton Rd.
