Meet DarcyAs the new Managing Editor I have trouble containing my excitement when I think about joining this team and the world of publishing. Believe it or not, I have been a neo-natal nurse for seven years! So, this is a huge (and welcomed) life change for me. I’ve been passionate about writing and digital design for as long as I can remember. A couple of years ago, I realized I was in dire need of a creative outlet. So, I created a collaborative lifestyle blog called Hello Luvvy. I immersed myself in writing, posting, editing, photography, networking in our community and managing a team of writers.
My new job at 3W has already exceeded my expectations. During my first week we were welcomed into the home of Arkansas Razorback Football Coach Bret Bielema and wife Jen. As an Arkansas native and alumna, you can imagine the stars I had in my eyes! Even though the weather is still warm, I think this issue will have you ready to ‘Call Those Hogs’!
I made a career change at age 30 and I have a renewed belief that dreams are worth pursuing. I’m truly excited about this journey.
MANAGING EDITOR, 3W Magazine & Trés Lifestyle
Hi, I’m Payton Bridewell. I grew up in Fayetteville, graduated from Tulane University and worked for Procter & Gamble for five years. I also have a fashion blog, TheWindowShopper.com. About a year ago, I decided to turn my blog into a consulting business. Through that decision, I’ve been able to pursue new opportunities like styling, public relations, social media marketing, sales and my longtime love of writing.
I’ve known Leslie & Kasie for years through my work with Northwest Arkansas Fashion Week. When they approached me in March about working with the 3W team, I jumped at the chance. I’m thrilled to be contributing to both Trés Lifestyle and 3W magazine as well as the blog.
I invite you to stay tuned to the Très Extras blog for updates between issues & follow along with my adventures on Instagram, @mspayton. Cheers!

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Northwest Arkansas has been a busy place these last few months! In April, the Washington Regional Medical Center Foundation hosted its annual gala and
Eagle Awards at the Walton Arts Center. That same week, the Sunshine School & Development Center held its annual Sunshine Gala at Horton Farms to a
sold out crowd! There wasn’t a dry eye in the house after hearing the family of a special-needs child speak about how the school has helped their son.
As everyone knows, April is one of the busiest months in Northwest Arkansas for charity events! We attended the Saving Grace luncheon – Butterflies and Blooms – which is near and dear to our hearts; and of course the Northwest Arkansas Children’s Shelter’s Starlight Gala
to hear country music artist Thompson Square inside the John Q. Hammons Center in Rogers. The Children’s Shelter’s gala helps raise
about 15 percent of its annual operating budget.

Somehow, the beginning of May brings perhaps the busiest weekend of the entire year. With a record-breaking six events on one night, our team was all over the place taking pictures at events like the Red Cross Celebration of Heroes and the JDRF Hope Gala: Run for the Roses, which was a huge hit at Horton Farms. Guests enjoyed a bourbon tasting while wearing their best derby-inspired attire – all while raising money to find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes. Other fun events in May included Botanical Garden’s Greening of the Garden, St. Joseph’s Men’s Night, Open Avenues Spring Fling and the Boys & Girls Club of Benton County’s gala.
In June the Washington Regional Medical Center held its 23rd annual Friends of Washington Regional Hospice Summer Garden Party. With nearly 500 guests at the special “West Meets South” atmosphere, more than $90,000 was raised.
A new event this year was the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Arkhoma Celebrity Chef Throwdown at Magnolia Gardens in Springdale.

Close to 250 guests enjoyed freshly prepared dishes from local chefs like Rob Nelson of Tusk & Trotter, Vince Pianalto of Bouchee and Jerrmy Gawthrop of
Greenhouse Grille – all competing for a chance to win. Then, kids and parents alike danced the afternoon away to Trout Fishing in America.
We can’t forget Youth Bridge’s annual One Boogie event, held at the home of Hershey and Denise Garner. This year’s event was called One Boogie-Two Missions. It was an opportunity to raise money for those facing hunger and homelessness in Northwest Arkansas. The event was
hosted by Youth Bridge and Feed Communities. Youth Bridge provides transitional housing for people ages 16 to 23. Be sure to save the date for their next big event on Nov. 13, Starry Starry Night Almost Van Gogh. Of course, June wouldn’t be the same without the Walmart Northwest Arkansas Championship presented by P&G. Read more about that week on the next few pages!

July is typically the slowest month for charity events, but the ALS Corporate Breakfast at Pinnacle Country Club had a huge turnout as always. Walmart’s Chief Merchandising Officer Duncan Mac Naughton challenged guests to exceed fundraising expectations for ALS and raise more money than ever. Also last month, Elizabeth Richardson Center rallied the troops to help raise funds at its annual Beach Bingo Bash. The Children’s Safety Center hosted Dream Big on July 19, while the United Way of Northwest Arkansas helped kids in need of school supplies with its annual Stuff A Bus event. And the on July 31, the Kendrick Fincher Hydration Foundation hosted its annual Beat the Heat luncheon.

For the eighth straight year The Walmart NW Arkansas Championship presented by P&G took Rogers and the surrounding area by storm. As the area’s biggest event and golf tournament, it is no surprise that this
display of athleticism and philanthropy was once again a fun-filled time for all.
The week kicked off with the annual General Mills Pairings Party on Tuesday night. The event at John Q. Hammons Center started with the
First Tee VIP party where sponsors and supporters of First Tee Northwest Arkansas were honored for all they do to impact the lives of youth in
Northwest Arkansas through the game of golf. Following the VIP party, guests were invited to enjoy food, cocktails, and poker tables while the Pro-Am pairings were announced. And as always, Magic Matt kept guests guessing with his fabulous card tricks throughout the evening.
The following evening, at P&G’s Pantene Beautiful Lengths (emceed by Neile Jones and Gisel Ruiz), over 300 people – including five LPGA players – lovingly donated their hair to make wigs for women fighting cancer. The event is always a tournament favorite, and Razorback Football Coach Bret Bielema and his wife Jen were special guests this year.

Bright and early on Thursday morning the Network of Executive Women (N.E.W.) held its fourth annual Women’s Day. This executive breakfast with special guest speakers, Sylvia Ann Hewlett, Gisel Ruiz and Kristin Oliver, focused on providing insights, practical advice and live examples on how to embody the “Executive Presence” women need to succeed.
The official tournament play got underway on Friday featuring 144 of the top women golfers from around the world vying for spots in the tournament and a shot at the $2 million purse. The competition was fierce and exciting throughout the weekend. Crowds gathered at Pinnacle Country Club in Rogers to cheer on their favorite ladies.
After the first round Alena Sharp was in the lead with Michelle Wie and Alejandra Llaneza trailing the lead by one shot. Local favorite, Razorback Alum and Rolex Rankings No. 1 Stacy Lewis came in 1 under 70 at 5 shots off the lead. On Saturday after round two it was Michelle Wie holding a two-shot lead. Stacy Lewis bounced back from Friday turning in a 66. Then Sunday it was Stacy Lewis who closed at 65 and a three-day total of 12 under par allowing her to take home the win. With Stacy being Arkansas Alumna, the crowd truly went (HOG) wild. Lewis stated, “It’s just really, really special to win here.” It was really special for us too Stacy!
While the drama played out on the greens, spectators enjoyed watching the rounds of golf, meeting the players at Autograph Alley and checking out the Walmart Kids’ Center presented by Dove. The 17th hole was once again the “loudest hole in golf,” thanks in large part to the Malibu Party Deck. The tournament proved to be an exciting time for everyone and we can’t wait for next year! n

COVER STORY

Having been in Northwest Arkansas for a year now, Coach Bret Bielema and wife Jen sat down to talk with us about life in Northwest Arkansas in a more personal setting – their home.
This has been their first summer with some downtime in nearly four years because they weren’t planning a wedding, moving, or building a house. The couple is feeling more settled in and gave us their list of local favorite hotspots around Northwest Arkansas.
The couple traveled to Florida to see Jen’s family this summer and also to Illinois to help Bret’s parents celebrate their 54th wedding anniversary. Bret had a tradition (that Jen now joins in on of course) of going to Miami right before football season starts to relax and enjoy the calm before the storm.

As much as they travel, the couple really enjoys being at home. They’re both quick to say they especially love being at home with their dogs. The Yorkies, Lucy and Ricky, are like their kids. Jen often buys Bliss ‘pupcakes’ for the dogs.
They also spend as much time outside as they can – drinking coffee on their patio and by their pool. Jen likes working out and says it’s therapeutic for her, and Bret likes to golf.
Jen adds, “He cooks, I clean. He makes a great salad wedge and is excellent on the grill.” Bret says, “And I make good omelets and gourmet tater tots.” Jen absolutely agrees and said she would eat omelets every day if Bret made them.
“I understood what sacrifices I would have to make prior to marrying Bret and it’s a good thing I love football,” Jen laughs.
Jen says their families are respectful of their busy times during football season. “If we can’t return a phone call immediately, they understand. And now, football season is kind of all year...especially from July to February. We don’t have personal travel opportunities.”
Bret interjects, “Except well, we always try to take a break and get away somewhere for Spring Break. And you think you’re really getting away, but this year we went to Cabo and people were calling the Hogs as we walked through the airport! It was great.”
One tradition the couple shares is to have dinner at home every
Thursday night during the season, and on Friday mornings Jen drives Bret to the office to continue preparations for game day. “We embrace the little things,” Jen says. “He leaves early and gets home late, but it keeps the butterflies there, like when you’re dating, because you aren’t always together.”
I understood what sacrifices I would have to make prior to marrying Bret so it’s a good
thing I love football, Jen laughs.

COVER STORY
Bret told us one of the things that attracted him
to the University of Arkansas is that you can
recruit the whole state “because everyone’s
behind you.”
He says, “It’s a neat thing and no one else in the
SEC has that. Alabama has Auburn, Georgia
has Georgia Tech, and even though Florida
is the only SEC school, they’ve got Florida
State, Miami...everyone’s got their own battle
grounds within their own state, so Arkansas
is unique.”
With a year under his belt as head coach, Bret
says he’s thankful to have some continuity.
Their bedroom furniture didn’t arrive until
the week of game 1 last year, so just being in
their home, knowing Fayetteville and getting
to know the players is something he says is
key.
Bret says, “You have to recruit kids with the
same parameters – I don’t care who raised you
– one parent, two parents, aunt or grandpa –
kids need to know what a ‘home’ is. You need
players who care about themselves, because
if they don’t care about themselves, how can
they care about a team?”
The Bielemas know the importance of
opening their home, and host a big recruiting
weekend – 48 hours for an official visit where
a potential player and his family can come
have dinner or brunch at their home. Jen
says, “It’s a really big deal and we think it’s
important that we can meet their parents
In the SEC everyone’s got their own battle grounds within their own state, so Arkansas is
unique because everyone’s behind you.

or caretakers.” Bret says, “Opening our home makes the parents feel a little more comfortable because they’re kind of handing their kids over to you, and it gives us a chance to connect with their families too.”
Bret and Jen have also been generous to participate in dinners that have been used as auction items for a few local nonprofits. Because even though football season seems to fly by for the Bielemas, they’ve learned that things don’t slow down socially in Northwest Arkansas.
And thankfully, this couple likes going to social events. They say they haven’t been to a bad social event yet! Among some of their favorites: Pantene Beautiful Lengths, Kiss A Pig, and Men’s Night at St. Joseph’s Church & School.
Jen says, “It’s been a tough year, but it’s been a fun year too. We’ve enjoyed getting acclimated and learning what all Fayetteville
and Northwest Arkansas has to offer. Plus, the community has been really wonderful.” After being invited into their home for an afternoon, we’d say the same thing about this couple. n
A few of Bret & Jen’s favorite places in NWA:
Jen likes shopping at Glo and maintaining her eyelash extensions (We couldn’t agree more!)
The couple love having date night at Theo’s, Bonefish or Ruth’s Chris (where they spent
their second anniversary) and going to concerts at The Amp
Jen loves getting ‘pupcakes’ (and cupcakes) from Bliss Cupcakes for Lucy and Ricky
You might find them grabbing a cocktail at 21C or a coffee at Red Kite
They enjoy getting the “best burger in town” from Deluxe Burger
Coach likes playing golf at Fayetteville Country Club

ast September, the Fred W. Smith Football Center was officially dedicated in front of hundreds of guests as the beautiful new $40 million home of Razorback Football.
It was October 2010, when Athletic Director Jeff Long first announced plans for a new football operations building. At the press conference Long announced that the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation was moving forward with a $10 million challenge grant. At the forefront of the grant was Donald W. Reynolds Foundation chairman, Fred W. Smith.
The 80,000 square-foot facility includes a spacious locker room, team meeting rooms, training room, equipment room, a student-athlete lounge and study area, coaches’ offices, a recruiting reception area and football displays celebrating the tradition of Razorback Football.

ARKANSAS RAZORBACKS NEW BRAND IDENTITY
Respect the Past. Represent the Future.
In addition to the classic running Razorback logo, the university has now introduced the forward facing hog as a complement to the traditional logo. The new hog logo is bolder and more intimidating. As the University of Arkansas continues its partnership with Nike, they decided to streamline the school’s uniform design and logo across the board with all sports. The one that hasn’t changed: the color palette. Cardinal and white still serve as the primary colors of the Razorbacks. Cardinal has been the primary color for the Razorbacks since the students took it to a vote in 1895. Cardinal elicits a strong emotional response representing strength, leadership and courage. White signifies confidence and honesty.

Before this year, the Razorback uniforms had no consistency in typography or font, but now the new Arkansas Razorbacks logo (pictured here) has a clean, modern look that’s cutting edge. Athletic Director Jeff Long says, “It’s extremely important to have a unified look and branding that goes across all sports - men’s and women’s – and we’re excited to have a graphic identity that will provide that for us.” From football, baseball and track to soccer and volleyball, the Arkansas Razorbacks have a new look to go with their longstanding winning traditions. n

More than ever, Razorback fans are dressing for those six
special Saturdays. The occasion is Game Day. Arkansas is
a singularly focused state, sports-wise. For hog fans, home
games are an especially big deal. We like to bring it. We like
to look good for game day. Our motto for the 2014 season is:
You look good, You feel good, You play good.
We just hope the boys feel the same!

TRÉS CHIC
Luckily, tailgating on game-day combines both of our favorite things. Football season is only a few weeks away and we really wanted to up our tailgate game. So, we called in an expert: Bartus Taylor of Buzz Events.
As the creative mind behind Buzz Event Planning’s design and style, Bartus strives to create an extraordinary atmosphere for his clients based on their original vision. Buzz creates an event that will leave guests feeling inspired. We asked Bartus to help us dress up our tailgate and show us how to keep our guests buzzing about the party, long after the game.
To achieve our trés-chic tailgate, Bartus integrated a few elegant elements into the classic concept. He called on Eventures for the rentals and The Main Event for the catering. He brought his own chair cushions, arranged the flowers (mums, tulips & gladiolus) himself and used red apples, radishes, pears, greenery and a foam core to craft the centerpieces for the table. The black and white stripes added a pop of modern. Silverware, glass and tablecloths easily added elegance while beers on ice kept the party casual.
IF THERE’S ONE THING WE LOVE MORE THAN ARKANSAS FOOTBALL, IT’S AN ARKANSAS PARTY...
TRÉS CHIC
TRÉS CHIC
Consider your environment: If your party is outside and it’s warm out, leave the delicate flowers and ice sculptures at home.
Keep it simple: Stick to your strengths! If you’re an accomplished cook, don’t bother with a caterer; allocate space in your budget for décor.
Keep it cost effective: Incorporate fruits & veggies into your tables-scape instead of spending a bundle on flower arrangements.
Keep it light: Never take yourself too seriously when planning a party it’s a party after all!
If you’re going in on a tailgate with friends, why not hire a party planner? When you delegate the responsibility for food, drink and décor, everyone gets equal enjoyment and contributes the same amount. n
