One of my all-time-favourite girlie movies has got to be Steel Magnolias, with the all-star cast of Julia Roberts, Shirley Maclaine, and Dolly Parton.  Steel Magnolias is a make-you-laugh and make-you-cry story about family, love, relationships, and female friendships.  And there is something to be said about those Southern Belles, isn’t there?  So poised, so put together, and so polished! Wouldn’t it be nice, all that time with your girlfriends in the beauty parlour?  Here at Mcblooms, we have always enjoyed our trips to the South for various trade shows, and industry-related events.  There is certainly something to be said about the elegance and class of southerners…and especially the gentlemen, too!  If you are in the area, be sure to stop by Elizabeth’s Garden in Mobile, Alabama, for the beautiful McBlooms display they always put together.  I truly cannot wait to get back down there, breathe in that breathtaking Gardenia and enjoy some warm evening strolls.
