BEAUTY.  CONFIDENCE. THE POWER OF REINVENTION.

What happens when the woman you are on the inside finally matches the woman you show the world?

Join the Secrets of Powerful Women Society on Thursday, October 8, 2026 at 7 PM for an inspiring intimate evening of networking, empowerment, beauty, expert makeup tips and confidence with Mallory Y. Rutledge.

For women in midlife, style can become about so much more than what we wear or the makeup we choose. 

It can be a way of rediscovering ourselves, expressing who we have become, and walking into a room with renewed confidence.

And Mallory knows the transformative power of that better than most.

MEET MALLORY Y. RUTLEDGE

Mallory began her professional career with Christian Dior Cosmetics, refining her craft in Paris and backstage at major fashion shows including Yves Saint Laurent, Galliano, and Ferré.

She later became Dior's New York stylist, working on editorial shoots, high-profile retail launches, and with private clients in the worlds of fashion and beauty.

A graduate of the New York School of Design, Mallory also has a background in interior design, which helped develop her extraordinary understanding of color, balance, and aesthetics.

Her career has been built around something that resonates deeply with our Society:

Helping women see themselves differently.

An Evening That''s More About Beauty

This isn't about trying to look younger.

It's about looking in the mirror and recognizing the confident, vibrant woman you've become.

We'll talk about style, color, beauty, confidence, and how the way we present ourselves can influence the way we feel.

Because sometimes a new chapter calls for us to see ourselves through a new lens.

Come ready to learn.

Come ready to connect.

Come ready to meet women who are growing, changing, building businesses, reinventing careers, pursuing dreams, and refusing to believe their most exciting years are behind them.

Networking & Empowerment 

As always, the evening will also give you the opportunity to connect with an incredible community of women through the Secrets of Powerful Women Society.

Our mission is to empower the mind, body, and soul while creating meaningful relationships among women navigating midlife and everything that comes next.

This isn't networking where you simply exchange business cards.

It's about conversations.

Connections.

Friendships.

Collaboration.

And walking away feeling a little more inspired than when you arrived.

Makeup. Beauty. Confidence. Reinvention. Connection.

Because there is no age limit on feeling beautiful, being visible, reinventing yourself, or becoming the woman you want to be next.

Your next chapter deserves to be seen.
