Hey Lovely Lady,
I hope you had a wonderful week. Can you believe we are entering the final week of Feb? I am thrilled about Spring approaching and have been browsing through all the new magazines. My hubby has been in Australia for the past few weeks so I’ve taken advantage of having the house to myself by cleaning out some closets, dusting off my Spring accessories, started a fantastic new book and of course, watched a few of my fave Audrey Hepburn movies. I’ve seen “Funny Face” a million times, but every single time I fall back in love with the color pink… and Paris! I just have to share this fabulous scene from the film….
Doesn’t pink just make you feel good. I never really wore it when I was little because I was such a tomboy. Hmmm, I’m thinking my new colored jeans for Spring will be bubblegum pink! That’s my style tip for the week…..THINK PINK! Now, for a great beauty tip this Spring, it’s time to put your tube of red aside and bring on a pouty pink lip. Try a bright hot pink or fuchsia lipstick or gloss. This brings up a fond memory of my Grandma Betty Jo. Her signature lip and nail color was a bold fuchsia by Estee Lauder. She was a true fashionista! This new Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Suede is suppose to be the bomb. I plan to pick up a tube on my next trip to CVS. I’ll let ya know what I think!
Since we’re slowly coming out of hibernation, it’s also time to dust off the brain and the foggy feeling that can slow us down during the damp, cold, winter months. Slight depression or the “winter blues” sets in because of the lack of sunshine and Vitamin D. A few ways to pump up your Vitamin D is eating more salmon (if you aren’t a vegetarian). It has very high amounts of Vitamin D and also taking a cod liver oil supplement. Try to get out in the sun anytime it comes out and get as much as you can– without wearing sunscreen. Yes, you heard your beauty guru right! The sunscreen blocks the Vitamin D. When we are well into Spring and the sun is out to stay, you better get that SPF on at all times. Spring is a great time to review those goals we set on Jan 1st as well. If you’ve started to putter out, dust off that motivation and get the pep back in your step.
THIS WEEK I WILL….
- Make time for some “girltime”.
- Look over my goals and kick it into high gear. (If you’ve been slacking)
- Cleanse my body with fresh juice made from greens like kale, celery, spinach, etc.
- Exfoliate my dry winter skin from head to toe.
- Add more salmon to my diet.
- Soak up some rays.
- Be bold and rock a fuchsia lip.
- Watch a great girlie movie.
- Do more yoga. (yoga is great for cleansing the organs and ridding toxins)
- Focus more on what I do have and stop complaining about what I don’t.
- Do something completely out of the ordinary and girlie…like vacuum the house in a tiara! Ha!
Ba-bye February….Hello March!
Share the beauty, style + inspiration with your friends. I really appreciate it.
Wishing you many girlie giggles, great hair days and magical moments this week.
Love, Tiff
