Empowered Women – Volume 4

March 20, 2019

For today’s Empowered Women post, I am introducing you to someone who I have “virtually known” for about eight years thanks to the world wide web. Erica and I originally got to know each other through the beauty community on Youtube and through our blogs. Erica has exquisite taste in home decor and I love her clothing choices as well. I think you’ll all love Erica as much as I do. Be sure to check out her social media links at the bottom of this post to keep in touch.
Erica Elia Empowered Women

Tell us a little bit about YOU:

I am a wife to an amazing man and a mom to 24 year old daughter that lives in Atlanta and a 17 year old son. I work full-time in the corporate world but in my free time I love working on my passion which is my Blog and Youtube Channel. I love the opportunity I have had to meet so many people in person and through the internet from all of the world. I love sharing home decor ideas to fashion finds.

Favorite Quote:

Do everything with so much love in your heart that you would never want to do it any other way. -Unknown

Biggest disappointment:

When you open yourself up to put your life out there in the social media world you will find that sometimes there are unkind people and at first I was very disappointed that this even existed but then I quickly learned that you can not let a very small group of people stop you from making a difference for a much larger group. You can not take someone’s actions personally and never let it stop you from going after your goals.

Favorite Piece of Advice:

I always share that you should never keep your nice things put up for a special occasion. Life is so special that every day is a special occasion and use your items often. You deserve it!

Favorite Collaboration:

I am currently pairing up with Loft and they are hosting a Meet and Greet in Atlanta on March 30th. I would love for you to join me and you can find out more details on my Instagram page.

How can we support you?

I would love to have you follow along on all of my platforms as I share and for you contribute in the comments to also help others with ideas and tips!

      She announced a few weeks ago that she wasn’t going to do it anymore and focus on her family instead. I believe I saw her post on instagram just today though. I’m certain she would message you if you sent her a message or email. Stacie xo

I’m closing out 2025 and ringing in the new year b I’m closing out 2025 and ringing in the new year by sharing an easy way to make your wardrobe go farther for you. Choose your pieces wisely! Get items that can be worn together but can also be paired with other items you already own.

1️⃣These pull on black pants work dressed up or down. 

2️⃣ I love this gorgeous white button down because I can wear it with literally anything in my closet, from jeans to dressy. The sleeve details are beautiful and unique.

3️⃣ This bright red peplum jacket is great for layering to elevate the look. Look for that special 3rd piece that you know you’ll wear often.

4️⃣ Fabulous accessories are a must!

➡️ Let me know if you want sizing details with links.😎

I’m loving the slow pace of the week between Chris I’m loving the slow pace of the week between Christmas and New Years. There’s not much on my plate so I’m going to just enjoy the peaceful moments. AD

I’m sharing several sweaters again because they’re all so fabulous and just so happen to all be on sale too!🎉

Let me know if you want the links sent to your messages.🤩

Just say BAGS and I’ll send you the details with a Just say BAGS and I’ll send you the details with a discount code.🎉

Here’s an easy way to help the environment. Use reusable bags when grocery shopping. These are a large size and fold flat when not in use. They’re extra sturdy for holding lots of items and they keep your groceries in place in your trunk, even when you make sharp turns. You know what I’m talking about!😅

Just keep them in your car so you always have them when you need them. Available in a few colors and patterns. 3 of these bags hold the same as 10 plastic bags.👏

Let’s all do better in the new year.🥰

If you’re looking for a simple haircare routine th If you’re looking for a simple haircare routine that helps keep your hair hydrated and healthy looking, then I’ve got you. #AussiePartner 

I use the @aussiehaircare Miracle Moist Shampoo and Conditioner Set and then follow with the 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner with avocado oil. This helps to detangle my hair for easier styling.

I definitely push the limits by getting my hair colored every month to cover grays and even though I use multiple heat styling tools these products help to keep my hair soft, smooth and visibly hydrated. 

It’s lightweight, smells great with a citrus and floral scent and doesn’t weigh my hair down.

The weather is playing tricks on us here in north The weather is playing tricks on us here in north Texas. It’s supposed to be Winter, but it feels more like spring so I get to wear all of these fun sweaters from @coldwatercreek without a jacket so everyone can see just how great they are. #ad 

They have a big Sweater Sale happening now with a nice variety of cozy styles and weights to wear now AND later. In fact, you’ll probably keep them as part of your wardrobe staples for years to come.

Do you have a favorite from these 3 that I shared?
A. Red Honeycomb Pullover
B. Arctic Fox Sweater
C. Nordic Mist Sweater Jacket
D. All of them!
