By 4chionlifestyle | January 22, 2021

Inauguration Power In Pearls Fashion 4chion lifestyl

The fashion is a show of color, personality, and solidarity. Harris’ pearls are a homage to the sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha. Many women wore pearls in solidarity to Harris. The pearl is a show of great rarity and worth. These women are just that.

Harris’ Fashion

Harris is wearing Christopher John Rogers to the swearing-in ceremony. The fashion remains true to the simple minimal fashion Harris is often seen wearing. The purple represents unity and is in honor of Shirley Chisholm. She did not sport her traditional chucks for the day. She is wearing a pair of black pumps. The evening she is wearing Sergio Hudson. This black dress went from a ball gown to a cocktail dress. This was sleek and elegant. She is setting fashion trends.

The clear choice to use black designers for her fashion on this day demonstrates that black designers can be luxvsiourious and glamourous. Taking away the they are just street and urban designers. Hudson is honored by the fashion choice brings these designers to the front of design and style.

Women Honoring Harris Fashion

Jill Biden’s Fashion

Jill Biden’s evening gown designed by, Gabriela Hearst, designer known for unity. Hearst states on Instagram, “Unity is the main inspiration for the creation of the Ensemble. Unity makes strength and it is needed for the road ahead.”

This cashmere coat and gown covered in embroider flowers representing the states and territories of the United States. The quote, “Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn,” Benjamin Franklin embroider on the lining.

Biden’s inauguration fashion is:

Wing & Weft designed the patten leather gloves for the day, the gloves for the evening gown, and the memorial the day before inauguration for COVID-19. This is the last glove designer in the garment district
Jonathan Cohen designed the purple dress and coat for victims of Covid-19 memorial service
Alexandra O’Neill designed the blue tweed coat with velvet cuffs and the embellished dress with Swarovski crystals and pearls.This is signifying trust, confidence, and stability.
Jimmy Choo heels for the blue tweed coat.

Amanda Gorman’s Fashion

Amanda Gorman, poet laureate is wearing Prada. The ring was a gift f’s rom Oprah Winfrey. She had given a ring to Maya Angelou and wanted to continue the tradition. The ring is a bird cage with a bird in there. This reminds Gorman of Maya’s poetry. Winfrey all gifted a pair of gold hoop earrings by designer Nikos Koulis, his passion for jewelry is a sharp outlook and authentic passion.

Former First Ladies Fashion

Hudson designed Michelle Obama’s fabulous look. This is a monochromatic burgundy turtleneck sweater and wide-legged bootcut pants, with a structured coat. The leather gold belt is also from Hudson. Obama noted for her choice of black designers often and fashion that states I am here to play. Her gloves designed by J.Crew gloves

Laura Bush a lady who is often seen wearing pearls, much like her mother-in-law Barbara Bush. Bush remained comfortable throughout the day with flats with bows. She is wearing a knee-length and classic cut dark gray dress.

Hillary Clinton fashion choice is color of unity and optimism designed by Ralph Lauren. She stayed true to her love of pant suits. Did Clinton influence some of Kamala’s fashion choices?

Surprise fashionista Bernie Sanders

Did you feel the “bern?” Bernie Sanders is the talk of social media over his gloves. A gift he received 5 years ago, no you can get yourself a pair they are all sold out. Jen Ellis made the recycled mittens in 2016. He did not sport the pearls but stole the fashion show.

The power of what fashion represented this day was well thought out and meaningful. The power of women is seen in the unity and strength of a pearl. What was your favorite fashion or moment of the day?

The Visit at Prescott Film Festival Romina Schwedler

By 4chionlifestyle | November 28, 2020

The Visit, at Prescott Film Festival, is Romina Schwedler, screenwriter and director, first film, This short movie is a juxtaposition of life events.

The Visit is a day in the time of a visit with a mother (June Squibb) and son (Sean Maher). The story takes a moment in time for the son and develops a sequence of events that changes lives. The son must face the consequences of the events.

Schwedler’s attention to details in the film completes the story. She states, “every little detail, in the lighting, the wardrobe design, and every odd thing matters.” The juxtaposition of the story develops well with the attention to details.

Schwedler develops the story from a conversation with her father about her aunt. Her aunt experiences loss of most family and friends. Coping with the deep grief and loss her aunt develops elaborate stories regarding those she lost. Her techniques in film development here allow the audience to experience the emotions in the story.

The casting for the short film was “serendipitous,” she says. She approaches June Squibb, Oscar-nominated actress, at an award dinner in Los Angeles with a flash drive of the script. Sean Maher, Ben in the short film, heard about the project and appreciates June Squibb’s work. His agent contacted Schwedle in regards to working on the project. The casting provides a twist much like the film. Check local film festival events for screening.

Making Cinnamon Rolls ~ Foodie Ellie

By 4chionlifestyle | July 12, 2020

Making cinnamon rolls Food Ellie is excited to create grammy’s cinnamon rolls. Ellie’s favorite treat from grammy is cinnamon rolls.

Ellie comes for a summer visit to celebrate the Juneteenth and swim for the weekend with grammy. She made her first pie crust for a sweet potato pie for the family Juneteenth dinner.

Food Ellie Cinnamon Roll Recipe 4Chion Lifestyle — Measuring out the Flour

Foodie Ellie Cinnamon Roll Brunch 4Chion LIfestyle — Measuring out the Flour

Ellie’s advice is to always check the bowl for eggshells and wash up the dishes when done. She was determined to do this herself. She measured each cup of flour to be one cup ( I usually use my senses to measure for bread). It was a wonderful day baking with her. Sharing the tradition I learned from my own grandmother.

Cinnamon Roll Tradition

My grandmothers on my mother’s side were known for their outstanding baking skills. They always used all-purpose flour, white sugar, and no eggs to make cinnamon rolls. Family recipes are fun to create.

I prefer Bob’s Red Mill Unbleached White All-Purpose Baking Flour (12-15% protein). This pastry flour is perfect for creating great yeast-raised products. Today we only had Bob’s Red Mill Unbleached White Fine Pastry Flour (8-9% protein). Getting the right flour has been a difficult product to find during the COVID-19 pandemic. This flour worked out well.

I remember reading my great-great grandmother’s story gathering sego lilies and grinding them into flour to bake bread, cinnamon rolls, and creating pies. They did this after settling in Idaho from the Mid-West and food was scare. It is a make it work moment.

Cinnamon Roll Recipe

Bread Dough

6 – 8 cups of Flour

2 pkg. active dry yeast

2 cups whole milk

1/2 cup butter

1 tsp. salt

1/2 cup sugar

2 eggs

Filling

3/4 cup butter

Cinnamon and sugar

You can raisins or chopped nuts if you like.

Icing Recipe

2 cups powder sugar

4 tbsp softened butter

2 tsp vanilla

Milk, enough to get icing spreading consistancy

In a large bowl or Kitchen Aid, mixing bowl with the bread hook attachment. Add 2 cups of the flour and both yeast pkg. on top of the flour.

In a large pot on the stove on low add whole milk, butter, salt, and sugar heat warm to the touch.

Pour the warm to touch mixture over the flour and yeast. Mix well on low if using Kitchen Aid. When mixed well add

2 eggs blending after adding each egg.

Slowly add the remaining flour (this will vary each time how much) 1 cup at a time. Mix well after each addition. Increase speed on the Kitchen Aid as needed. The dough should be firm and start to pull away from the sides of the bowl when enough flour is added. Knead by hand for 12-14 minutes (stretch and pull using palms of your hands). In the Kitchen Aid mix for two minutes on setting 8. This is equivalent to 12-14 minutes needing by hand.

Raising Cinnamon Rolls

Butter the sides of a large bowl. Place dough in a buttered bowl and cover with plastic wrap. My grandmothers used a clean dish towel. This does create a slight crust on the dough as it rises. Let dough rise until double size about 1 1/2 hours. Punch down, let rest 10 min.

Next, roll the cinnamon roll dough into a circle, dust with flour if sticking, roll about 1/4″ thick. Brush the melted butter on the rolled out dough. Then sprinkle the cinnamon and then sugar till well covered. You are welcome to mix the butter, cinnamon, and sugar together then spread on the dough with a butter knife. Roll the dough each roll please pull towards you. Then cut in 2-inch rolls with a sharp knife (children can use a butter knife it will be a change the shape of the cinnamon roll some but good experience for them).

Cinnamon Rolls Baking 4chion foodie lifestyle — Rolling out Dough

Finishing Cinnamon Rolls

Place cinnamon rolls in grease baking pan 9×13″. Let rise he cinnamon rolls rise until the are touching each other for about 20 minutes. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 350° f until golden brown. Mix up the icing using a hand mixer. Cool cinnamon rolls until warm to the touch. Frost the cinnamon rolls. This is great to make ahead for a family Sunday brunch or holiday breakfast. Store in an airtight container.

Teaching family recipes are so important in keeping the traditions and flavors alive. Taking time to recreate and creating new alterations make a life long memory that can last for generations. We enjoyed homemade pizza with the extra dough.

The Waffle Iron for the Decades

By 4chionlifestyle | June 29, 2020

The waffle iron that lasts for decades. The one I still use today comes from a yard sale in Long Beach Washington (1997), the longest beach in the world.

Hamilton Waffle Iron 4chion Lifestyle — Generational Waffle Iron

Waffle Iron Story

The request while at the beach home was waffles for Sunday breakfast. Just as we drove from a moment downtown Long Beach we find a yard sale. The Hamilton waffle iron is right for the best price of $2. It was a gem for the day if even for the Sunday meal.

This waffle iron has been around since then. It always works and makes perfect waffles. It has gone from the beach to home to the desert in a move. The children have grown and started there own families. The tradition continues with the waffle iron for my granddaughter.

Recently #FoodieEllie (my granddaughter) requested waffles for a Saturday breakfast. She said, “I am going to watch TV while you make me waffles, pleeaassee grammy.” I did take the time to make the waffles.

Foodie Ellie Waffles for Breakfast 4Chion Lifestyle

This is a perfect brunch after the 4th of July holiday weekend. #FoodieEllie loves blueberries and they can be added fresh it gives a nice squeeze of juice inside. Her 4th of July in Champaign Illinois was blueberry waffles. She found the blueberries at the local farmers market. Perfection.

Waffle Recipe

Waffle Ingredients

Here is the reciepe for a great waffle for your weekend celebration. Children will be a great help with creating this meal.

1 cup all-purpose flour (we used Bob’s Red Mill Unbleached White All-Purpose Organic Flour), spooned and leveled
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk (Difficult to find at times you can do 3/4 cup of milk with 1/4 cup of vinegar), perfect buttermilk
2 large eggs (separated, whip egg whites to soft peaks fold in at the very end)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoon sour cream
Warmed syrup, fresh fruits, whipped cream, Nutella, or chocolate syrup. Fun to make it a selection for children and guests.

Waffle Recipe 4Chion Lifestyle — Waffle Breakfast

Waffle Directions

Preheat waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk buttermilk and eggs yolks; pour over flour mixture, and whisk gently to combine (don’t overmix). Gently whisk in butter and sour cream. Fold in whipped egg whites.
Following the manufacturer’s instructions, cook waffles until deep brown and crisp. (For a standard waffle iron, pour a generous 1/2 cup of batter into center, spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges, and close; waffle will cook in 2 to 3 minutes.) Allow your guests to top their waffles with their favorite.

Do you have a waffle iron story? Please post your response using #4ChionFoodie. Happy National Waffle Iron Day.

Enjoy.

1 cup olive oil more may be needed

2 ears of roasted corn (remove kernels from cob)

Combine all ingredients except for the olive oil and corn kernels in a bowl of a food process until smooth. Slowly add the olive oil through the feeding tube while processor is running. This will create a consistency of mayonnaise when all the oil is added. It may need a little more to reach the consistency needed. Transfer to a bowl and fold in the roasted corn in the aioli.

Corn Pancakes

3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour

1/2 cup cornmeal

1 Tsp. baking powder

3/4 Tsp. salt

1 TBSP sugar

1 large egg separated (yolk slightly beaten) (egg white beaten stiff)

1 1/4 cup buttermilk

Poached Eggs (can use a medium over egg, yolk needs to be runny)

6 Eggs

2 TBSP vinegar/rice vinegar

Bring a large pot of water to almost a boil. Add the vinegar, which will help the eggs set.

Swirl the simmering water, and then gently crack each egg into a small bowl and release right above the surface of the water. This is very important in order to present them from breaking and to achieve proper consistency.

Remove the pot from the heart, cover and let stand until the egg whites are fully cooed and the egg looks like a smooth ball about 4 minutes. You want the yolk to be runny.

Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel lined plate.

To serve place the corn pancake on a serving plate, dollop about 1 TBSP of spring pea puree, top with poached egg (over medium egg) drizzle with roasted corn aioli. Top with sprigs of mint and black pepper.

Note you can make variations on this recipe

You can use mashed avocados in place of the peas

Add smoked salmon, Canadian Bacon, or half slices of bacon placed on top of pea puree or avocados.

Enjoy.

Oscars® Red Carpet MakeUp Tips

By 4chionlifestyle | March 29, 2020

This is a great time to create a update your beauty with these makeup tips. Time to isolate and stay in, but it does not mean we go from pjs to active wear. Walk away from the Covid-19 looking better than when this started.

Gia Klime shares her Oscar® red carpet makeup tips for you to create that glamorous look even when in quarantine. Share your glam photos using #4chionstyle #quarantabulous #giabellafaces

Red Carpet Makeup Artsit

Well hello once again beauties, the pleasure is all mine. I’m so happy to give you another one of my reviews for the products I used and Love for The Oscars®.

Get super excited queens and add some brow, glow, contour, and an all day red lip with that excitement, this that is what this year’s Oscars® we’re all about.

I think the most beautiful look sometimes is a simple eye, contour, and bronze highlight with a stronger brow. Oh yes, ladies we can’t forget the lashes. I use Lilly Lashes on my clients, favorite ever.

@nini_4_u Supermodel and @weareroyals , queen. Jewelry by he amazing @loveandbones.ca

Steps to that Oscar® red carpet look make-up:

Red Carpet Skin Care

1. Prep skin with moisturizer and eye cream

2. Primer

Red Carpet Foundation Makeup Tips

3. I always apply L’Oreal Paris Makeup True Match Lumi Glotion Natural Glow Enhancer Highlighting all over the face. Today I used color 904, deep bronze. This brings life, glow, and a sun-kissed gitz and glam look.

4. Foundation makes sure that it is dewy and hydrating. Stay away from the matte look and powder. This look causes an aging affect. Hollywood beauties do not like aged skin.

Red Conturing and Highlighter Makeup Tips

5. Go straight to the amazing Cover Fx Monochromatic Bronzer. Two steps because at the Oscars Time is of the essence. Use the bronzer as a contour I love this color it’s very warm and looks good on all skin tones.

a. Angle brush applying under the cheekbones building slowly as desired.

b. Blend the hairline upwards as well.

c. Make sure to blend around the edges around your chin. Bam perfection.

6. Use the highlighter and when applying from temple and right above cheekbone. Not to close to the eyes. This is that simple yes, but pure elegance.

7. Take a little of the highlighter use it as a highlighter under the brow and sweep softly across lid and call it a red carpet look.

My Favorites I used for The Red Carpet . Must haves.

Red Carpet Lip Color Makeup Tips

8. Red lip. Loving once again all of our favorites as artists for the awards. L’Oréal Paris Makeup Rouge Signature Matte Lip Stain has a superb texture and the color is so universal.

a. Skip the liner.

b. Use the awesome applicator tip as your guide to line the lip color then color in the rest of the lip. You can call it a red carpet lip.

Red Carpet Brows and Eyeshadow Makeup Tips

8. Keep your brows strong but soft. Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow definer is my favorite to use on clients that do not have much hair. Go the opposite direction In light feathery strokes. It’s easier to see the technique I use then to explain it. There taupe color is so beautiful for many.

9. Check your shade; make sure you match your own brow hair.

10. Then last but not least, the most important. Those lashes. They complete the whole glitz and glam red carpet look.

Red Carpet Makeup Tips Wrap Up

There you beauties have it. My must haves on what I love and use, and my tips on how too.

Now find somewhere to go and shine like the beautiful royal queens you all are. Until next time, best to you all. Gia Klime. MUA. Instagram @giabellafaces
