Fashionable Frocks

With warmer weather quickly approaching, new trends are on the rise. It's time to shuffle through your old spring wardrobe pieces and possibly revive some of your past fashions! Here are a few you can easily get in on. You can go all out and be extreme. Or, be subtle and simply add your own spin on these looks.

Tribe Effect- Cool animal print, exotic motifs, bangles and earrings!!

Sheer Maddness- Try this spring/summer trend in nudes and pastels to keep it light, or try black for sexiness and mystery!

Neon Lights- Go bold with shocking neon colors in apparel, lipsticks, and nails.

Color Galore- Color blocking is back and so much fun. Anything goes, so try a pink shirt, orange skirt, and purple cardigan to complete your look!

Soft and Demure- Pastels in apparel, handbags, shoes, and nails are perfection for the warm weather. Easy to wear, mix and match nudes and pastels. They all work together so you can create several outfits with only a few pieces.

Kelp Powder - Mineral Hair Treatment

View my sea kelp natural hair treatment I tried over the weekend. It is a simple process that offers great results- shine and additional minerals that are great for the hair. My concoction included kelp powder, aloe vera juice, and oils. I decided to use coconut and red palm oil in my mixture, but feel free to use whatever oils work well with your hair- almond, apricot, etc. Leave the mixture on for 2 to 4 hours. It's easy to wash out, and the smell is minimal. The first pic of my hair shows my texture prior to the treatment. View the sheen and length after treatment. This is a completely natural home remedy. Care to learn more about kelp and how it supports hair growth, and the overall body-depending on how you use it.

And I will slow down if at all possible, meaning saying no to someone, I can't help, I can't go. Sometimes it's just necessary for me to check in with myself and realize when too much is too much. Just two weeks ago, I was laid out on a beach, on an island, alone. No children, no husband, not even a girlfriend. Just me, my music, and a good book. It's rare that I get time alone, but I believe it's highly necessary. I've gotten a few raised eyebrows because I have taken several trips without my children, a few outside of the country. I don't feel guilty one bit. I'm certainly not a perfect mother, but I know that quality time is important in my household, along with family fun, activities, and traveling. Although challenging, stealing alone time really needs to be made a priority. This time can attribute t...

Pink Himilayan Salt Lamp

Here's another alternative to sleep meds, and a simple (reasonably priced) remedy for a host of conditions you may be suffering from. The simplicity of the Himalayan pink salt lamps is what makes this product so awesome. Yes, all it requires you to do is to plug it up. That's it! So it's a winner, no-brainer, why-not?, purchase. Read more on how this lamp can fix your problems below. So, I've loved mine from day one. My lamp sits on a nightstand next to the bed. I close the bedroom and closet doors, with the goal of absorbing as much of the benefits as possible. One concern you may have with your lamp is the lighting, if you have trouble sleeping in a less-than pitch dark room. And if so, just use it during the day while you are awake. The lamp can remove all sorts of 'bad stuff' from the air you breath in your home; in-door air pollutants, pollen, dust, chemical...
