Glam Diaries: Glowing From the Inside Out

At Elsie in Naples, we’ve always believed that beauty is so much more than getting dressed. It’s how you feel when you catch your reflection. It’s confidence, care, intention, and that little spark that makes you feel absolutely fabulous. Style is head to toe, inside and out, and when everything is aligned, the result is simply divine.

That philosophy is exactly why we’re launching Glam Diaries. This series was born out of the questions we hear all the time about our skin, our routines, and the people we trust. Glam Diaries isn’t about trying something new just for the sake of content, it’s about opening up and sharing what we already do and who we already turn to.

Recently, Lori and I visited Laser Lounge Spa Naples to spend time with the incredible Contessa Williams, PA-C, who is recognized as one of the Top 100 aesthetic injectors in the United States. Contessa has been a trusted part of our beauty routine for some time now, and this visit was simply us bringing you along for a conversation we’ve had before, openly and honestly.

And because we believe in transparency and community, we documented the visit in a three-part video series, which we’re sharing below.

Glam Diaries: Laser Lounge Spa Naples

Part One: The Introduction

In part one, Lori and I introduce Laser Lounge Spa Naples and share why we love working with Contessa. We talk about what we’ll be doing during this visit, why education and intention matter so much when it comes to aesthetic treatments, and how our approach to beauty is always about enhancement, never changing who you are.

Part Two: Treatments & the Glow Details

In part two, Contessa walks through the treatments we chose and why. We discuss intentional cheekbone and jawline filler to beautifully restore volume and structure, along with Botox to smooth fine lines while keeping everything natural, expressive, and refreshed. These are thoughtful treatments we trust and return to because they help us look rested, polished, and fabulous.

Part Three: Threads, Lift & Laxity

In the final video, we dive into one of the most asked-about topics: threads. Contessa explains how threads work beneath the skin, what they treat, and why they’re especially helpful for laxity in the neck area. It’s an empowering, educational conversation that takes the mystery out of a treatment so many people are curious about.

Why We’re Sharing This

When you feel good in your skin, everything shifts. Clothes fall better. Confidence comes more naturally. You glow in a way that feels effortless and real.

At Elsie in Naples, we don’t just dress women. We believe in supporting the whole picture and sharing the trusted experts who help make that possible. Glam Diaries is about community, transparency, and celebrating beauty in all its forms.

We wrapped up our visit with one final note: be sure to mention Elsie in Naples on your next visit with Contessa at Laser Lounge Spa Naples. We cannot wait to bring you more fabulous and divine Glam Diaries moments very soon.
