Greer's OC

For more than 20 years designer Marisa Kenson helped national brands in every aspect of designing, developing, and merchandising. And in 2008, Marisa decided to take her knowledge and make her own mark on the apparel world, developing an affordably priced, but high-end-design-inspired line for women called the Marisa Kenson Collection.

The flattering and forgiving signature piece of the Marisa Kenson Collection, the patent pending, "Invisible Belt Dress," is a favorite among celebrities, including Katy Perry, former Pussy Cat Doll, Nicole Scherzinger, the multi-talented singer and actress, Aubrey O'Day, dancer, Cheryl Burke, and reality TV star, Vicki Gunvalson from "The Real Housewives of Orange County."

Last year, Marisa collaborated with Youngevity International to launch the online and social selling brand, MKCollab.com Marisa Kenson Collaborative.  The Youngevity partnership empowers Marisa to do what she loves, empower and support women in realizing their dreams of not only wearing comfortable, functional and fashion-forward clothing, but owning a piece of the fashion business.  

Now women can launch their own e-Boutique and online department store with no risk, and have access to millions of dollars of inventory. 

On MKCollab.com you can shop from denim, dresses, skirts, tops, jackets and coats, active wear, shorts and even jewelry. Her collections are even categorized in easy to shop from categories such as luxe life, haute traveler, werk it, hang out, wild thing and more.

MKCollab.com is now offering one Greer’s OC reader a $500 shopping spree (no cash for credits unused). Simply subscribe to Greer’s OC and enter promo code “MKCollab”. If you are already a subscriber, encourage a friend to subscribe. We’ll announce the winner on Dec. 30.  

MKCollab.com will also be helping me in my quest to get the “Human Trial” film made that’s documenting the race to cure diabetes!
