Optimistic Monday

June 17, 2013

Oh my, I’ve been terrible with my blog this past week.  If you didn’t already know, I was on vacation with my family in London and Scotland.  My teenage son was on the US Junior National Golf Team representing the USA vs the Scottish Junior National Team.  The USA won!!  That’s pretty darn good to beat the Scottish on their home turf.  They played at some of the oldest and most beautiful courses in Scotland.  It was a once in a lifetime experience that he’ll remember forever.
I will do a separate blog post on my wonderful vacation later this week.

5.  Finish up thank you cards

Accessories are a great way to add a personal touc Accessories are a great way to add a personal touch to our outfits. Both of these fun necklaces are from Alex and Ani, a brand that most of us are familiar with. They’re great on their own and are perfect for layered looks too.

Do you love adding jewelry as the finishing touch to your outfits?
I love getting a box of clothes delivered straight I love getting a box of clothes delivered straight to my door that were curated by my personal stylist.

If you’re new here, my name is Stacie, I’m 61 years young and kind of obsessed with makeup and beauty products that help me look and feel good in my own skin.

I appreciate you watching (especially if you hung around to see Winny at the end) and I hope you’ll check out my other videos to see if we could become friends because I could use more like-minded people in my life who want to build a community together here.💖

Shoutout and a big thank you to the brands that sent me some of these products to try.

Some handbags are just handbags… and then there ar Some handbags are just handbags… and then there are the ones that feel like a piece of art. #consuela_partner 

I’m loving the Bae City Bag from Consuela! It’s a fun statement piece, but it’s also incredibly versatile. I especially love wearing it crossbody when I want to be hands-free.

And knowing this bag is handcrafted in Mexico with attention given to every detail makes it feel even more special. Every @ConsuelaStyle bag has so much personality and character. 

If you’re already thinking about your Fall wardrobe, you definitely want to take a peek at the Consuela Fall Collection. There are SO many gorgeous bags and accessories to choose from that are fun and functional.

Go check out the collection and tell me which bag is your favorite!

If you’ve been looking for an easy way to level up If you’ve been looking for an easy way to level up your skincare routine, this is it! #roc_partner
 
I’ve been using the NEW RoC Line Smoothing 2-Step Peel Pads, and I love how simple they are to use.
 
Step 1 gently exfoliates with a blend of glycolic, lactic, mandelic, and other exfoliating acids to remove dull, rough skin.
 
Step 2 follows with RoC’s patented Clinical Retinol plus Ectoin to help smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles while supporting your skin barrier. The best part? It takes just a couple of minutes and fits seamlessly into my evening skincare routine.
 
At 61, my skin feels noticeably smoother and looks brighter after using them, and with continued use they’re designed to improve texture, uneven tone, dullness, and the appearance of wrinkles.
 
At around $30 they’re an affordable way to enjoy a professional-inspired peel at home.
 
Are you as excited as I am about this new at-home dual-step treatment?
