Beauty and a Book Giveaway

August 15, 2019

I’m so excited to be hosting the latest Fashion Flash Beauty and a Book Giveaway. This giveaway is one that’s not be missed because it’s for all women who are looking to better themselves both physically and mentally. For a little background information, Fashion Flash is an influencer/blogger group for women over 40. Each month we host giveaways that pair a book with beauty products. Follow the group on Instagram to see all of the fantastic giveaways going on at any given time.

Fashion Flash Giveaway

Each giveaway varies, but always includes a book. Other items may also include a beauty product, a gift card, a piece of jewelry and more. This month is a unique and fantastic giveaway in that I’m giving away a must have book, a workout dvd with a set of dumbbells AND a $50 Amazon gift card!

Love Your Age Book

About the book:

Love Your Age, The Small-Step Solution to a Better, Longer, Happier Life is the title of the book. The author is Barbara Hannah Grufferman. It is published by AARP and National Geographic and takes a holistic approach to aging well. The book is “filled with healthy habits to help you take charge of your life with wit, energy, and confidence, this inspiring guide will show you how to look, feel, and be your best in a busy, fast-paced world.”

The book is described as follows:

Warm, engaging, and user-friendly, this powerful, practical guide to aging gracefully will be an indispensable resource for anyone looking to live their best life. Featuring more than a hundred easy-to-adopt “small steps” — the foundation for ingrained habits that will yield longer, happier, and healthier years – this book will help enrich your life, from health and fitness to style, work and relationships. From checking in with your doctors to changing your fitness routine, cooling hot flashes, tackling social media and updating your wardrobe, transformation really does begin with one step – and Grufferman provides an easy formula for making and breaking the right habits. Packed with expert tips, myth busters, checklists, real-life anecdotes, and sage wisdom, this book offers a new approach to life after 40 that will inspire, rejuvenate, and energize.

Barbara Grufferman author

About the author:

The author of the book is Barbara Hannah Grufferman. She is an acclaimed advocate for positive living and healthy aging. She’s a regular contributor to AARP and HuffPost, where she offers actionable tips to live your best life. She appears regularly on national television and radio shows. She lives in New York City with her husband and daughters.

My thoughts:

You need to buy this book! As a woman over 50 years old, I find this book to be a nice little handbook or guidebook. Barbara talks about everything in this book including fitness, beauty, menopause, sex and so much more. You will feel enlightened, encouraged and refueled to take her “small steps” advice to live a healthier and happier life.

Slosh Weights workout

The second part of this giveaway will help you get your mind and body into top-top shape.

Slosh Weights Mind-Body Land & Aqua Workout is designed to tone your body and relax your mind. This workout program was developed by Mirabai Holland, a Certified Exercise Physiologist and Health Coach. Mirabai’s water filled hand weights workout uses the relaxing motion and sound of water for an easy full body toning workout on land. Use the weights empty with air for resistance to work out in the water. The dvd provides 2 workout videos in one. She follows the workouts with abdominal toning exercises and stretching for the muscles you worked out and meditation for stress reduction.

I patiently waited (and stalked) the website and brick and mortar stores until I finally found these cute (and extremely comfortable) suede sandals in my size. 🎉

My jewelry is Melinda Maria and you can use code StacieH for 10% off your order.✨

Well this pretty dress does that for me!☺️

And yes, it has pockets! To be honest, the only thing I ever put in the pockets are my hands. But when a dress doesn’t have them, I don’t feel as comfortable. Anybody else feel the same?😅

One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack One of my favorite jackets is the lightweight Pack-It Jacket. It’s a great option, especially when I’m on the go! #ad

It has adjustable elastic to cinch in the waist, a hood when I need it in the rain (this hair is a lot of work so I have to protect it)!😅

And the best part is that it can be rolled up into its zipper pouch and tossed it into my bag so I have it when I really need it! It came in handy on my boat ride yesterday!

It comes in several different colors as well as inclusive sizing, so there’s a jacket for everyone! Oh, and it makes a great gift too!

Just comment SHOP and I’ll send the link to your messages or use the link below to shop the Pack-It Jacket from @coldwatercreek 💖

Looking back, I wish I had traveled more and been Looking back, I wish I had traveled more and been more adventurous in my younger years. Despite visiting many distant lands, I often did so reluctantly. However, my mindset has shifted over the past 10 years, and I now yearn to explore more of our world.

We’re currently in Jackson Hole, with upcoming trips planned for Summer and Fall, including another trip to Europe.

River cruising in Europe has been my favorite travel so far. We’ve taken 3 different river cruises and you can see some of those moments in my saved highlights.💖

Are there any cities or countries on your travel bucket list?✈️
