Favorite Things Friday – 4/29

April 29, 2011 By Leave a Comment

We are going to be starting a weekly blog that will come out every Friday. It will highlight things that me and my team enjoy, love, and can’t live without. So let’s get started with our first ever Favorite Things Friday!

Stacy

Arbonne’s “Awaken” Sea Salt Scrub–This scrub has a fresh, citrusy smell that I absolutely love!  The best part about it is that the salts are infused with essential oils, so it exfoliates AND moisturizes at the same time.  If you use self-tanners, it is brilliant at getting your lotion to go on smoothly and evenly.  Also, it gets rid of all those dead skin cells and help you have that healthy”glow”.  It is the perfect gift for Mother’s Day! Price: $28.00  How do you get some???  Call or e-mail my favorite Arbonne representative, Julie Peters: juliepeters410@sbcglobal.net, 281-795-2806.

Monique

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

John

Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm – This stuff is a gift from God. My lips chap VERY easily and it really saves my lips on a daily basis. Ask anyone who knows me and they’ll tell you I am never more than one foot away from my Burt’s Bees. Price: $3.00 here.

Fresh Fashion Picks for Spring

April 25, 2011 By 1 Comment

I was at Nordstom over the weekend, and spotted these fitted jackets. I LOVE these for those of you ladies who have to wear a suit all the time. Always wear jackets that are tapered at the waist–it is super-flattering! Also, the 3/4 sleeve is a great option for everyone!

Saw this window display at White House / Black Market — did you know their accent color for this season is coral? Coral is one of the hottest colors for this year, along with orange, turquoise and purples.

Gentlemen–this display was in one of Nordstrom’s windows. Notice the coral tie!  So guys, you can wear coral too and be right in style for the season!

5 Steps To Building A Great Wardrobe

April 21, 2011 By Leave a Comment
1. Clean out your closet–empty it out completely and start with a clean palette 

2. Evaluate your present wardrobe–do you have the same thing in 5 different colors, is it all jackets, all pants, are you shopping in the same places?

3. Get your existing wardrobe altered–petites, talls, skirt and sleeve lengths

4. Make a shopping list–be specific, take things with you that you need to match up

5. Accessorize! Shoes, purses, jewelry, belts
