Lululemon Athletica: Yoga. Run. Life.

22 Jun

YOGA FANS REJOICE! Lulu lemon is here!

Luulemon Athletica — a yoga-inspired athletic apparel company that makes technical athletic apparel for yoga, running, dancing and most other sweaty pursuits — is now open at The Streets at Southpoint, in the shop next to Free People. The company, based out of Vancouver, sells both men’s and women’s yoga and running products.  Lululemon’s philosophy and mission is based on creating components for people to live long, healthy and fun lives.  It’s not just a clothing store, it’s a way of life!

So, what sets Lululemon apart from other companies (besides the quality clothing and the top notch employees)?
Lululemon offers FREE YOGA CLASSES!!!

Lululemon has strong ties to our local community and not only offers free yoga classes, but also hosts events all year long ranging from self-defense to goal-setting workshops.

In fact, this weekend on Sunday, the 24th is the Yoga Mala for the Africa Yoga Project.
Celebrate the summer solstice with a traditional Yoga Mala, and help support the Africa Yoga Project! The amazing team of instructors at Franklin Street Yoga will lead in 108 sun salutations, honoring summer, community, and service. The event starts at 1:00 PM and will go until 3:30, with a potluck to follow!

For a complete listing of the Streets at Southpoint Lululemon Community Events, click here:

I really love the healthy, hip vibes I get from the store, it’s almost like my own personal happy place.  One of the aspects of Lululemon I enjoy most is the “LULULEMON MANIFESTO.”
If you don’t know a thing about this place, you’ll know almost everything you need to know just from the manifesto – I can’t help but to be inspired by it.  I think it is quite magnificent and find myself striving to live my life like this, it’s nice to see a company reaching out and grabbing hold of the power of positive thinking and balanced living – Spreading the love in a very powerful way!

A few of my favorites from the manifesto are:
1. Successful people replace the words ‘wish’  ’should’ and ‘try’ with ‘I WILL.”
2. Your outlook on life is a direct reflection of how much you like yourself.
3. That which matters the most should never give way to that which matters the least.

Does this manifesto speak to you?  You can download your own PDF copy of it here:
http://www.lululemon.com/files/poster_EN_tabloid_2009.pdf

I printed it and hung it on my wall here at work as my daily reminder to breathe deeply!
Be sure to stop by Lululemon at The Streets at Southpoint and let me know what you think!

Best in Body Butters

18 May

Keeping up with your fitness is very important to staying healthy and living longer, but we can’t neglect our skin!  Taking care of our skin is equally as important as taking care of our insides, we all know that!  Our skin is a living organ, a web of skin cells which are constantly changing, growing and dying.  Day and night our skin has to protect our bodies against heat, cold, dryness and sunlight.  Moisturizing daily can help our skin with its daily battle from damage and help reduce signs of aging. Moisturizing our whole body, not just our face is essential to a healthier, younger and more radiant look, but moisturizers are everywhere and choosing the right one for you can be difficult.

Thankfully, there is  Sephora, a great go-to store for all our moisturizing needs!

Bliss
Lemon + Sage Body Butter Maximum Moisture Cream
$29.00
Bliss Body Butter restores moisture to even the most ‘rough and scaly skin’ as it protects the skin from free radicals. It smoothes, softens, and hydrates dry skin, without making it feel greasy.
The texture is so luxurious and rich, must try!!

____

Sephora Collection

Moisturizing Bronzing Body Lotion
$16.00
A multitasking body lotion that gives skin immediate moisture and natural radiance.
Perfect for that summer time glow!!!
Skin is instantly nourished with long-lasting moisture, thanks to the SEPHORA skincare exclusive ingredient, HydroSenn+™, which softens skin and maximizes comfort. The fluid texture absorbs instantly—without a greasy effect. The radiant glow intensifies with each application, so you develop a subtle, even tan day after day.

____

I am a total sucker for cute packaging!  And when it comes to cute packaging, Soap and Glory knows exactly what they’re doing and thankfully, the cute package backs up the awesome product!
Soap & Glory
The Righteous Body Butter 
$18.00
An award-winning body moisturizing butter with softening shea butter and aloe vera.  This body butter was formulated for very dry skin with a new dynamic moisture trap matrix to help hold hydration in longer. Its alluring scent of Soap & Glory’s signature Pink Fragrance combines fresh bergamot and mandarin, rose, jasmine, peach, strawberry, oakmoss, amber, woody notes and amber and warm vanilla notes on the bottom.
It’s just plain good!

____

Sephora Collection
Super Supreme Body Butter
$25.00
The champion of moisturizers for the body, this luxuriously thick cream does not feel greasy and is quickly absorbed. Its updated formula includes a high concentration of HydroSenn+, a natural ingredient proven to deliver immediate and long-lasting hydration more effectively than hyaluronic acid. Packed with natural butters, including shea, mango and illipe, this product creates a moisture barrier that ensures comfortable, soft skin and long-lasting hydration. 

____

I love the array of fabulous scents Pacifica has to offer! From fruity to floral and then all the way to exotic, a mix of fresh goodness to invigorate the senses!
Pacifica Hawaiian Ruby Guave Body Butter and  Pacifica Indian Coconut Nectar Body Butter
$18.00 Each
Full of organic ingredients and natural essentials.

Don’t let your skin get the best of you, moisturizer locks in natural moisture and keeps the skin looking more supple and silky, and who doesn’t want smooth, silky skin?!  I know I do!

 Have you ever used any of these products?  What is your go-to moisturizer?
Let me know!!

With all this heat, you may be looking for some new summer digs – especially to get us through these next couple days of record high temps!
With two levels and a huge selection, Forever 21 has everything you need to keep you looking great, staying cool, and even saving a few bucks!  

First things first, this mannequin is rocking a seriously cool outfit.  From the black fedora ($6.50) to palm tree printed tank ($12.80)  to the soft white blazer ($24.80)  with the wide leg trousers ($22.80)  and the adorable yellow slip ons ($10.50)…I’m into it!  Throw in a pair of super cute shades of your choice and you’re looking at less than $100 for this whole outfit!  

Micro-Prints are in this year and they’re really starting to pop up everywhere, especially here!
One of my favorites right now is this  White and Black Micro-Print Heart Pattern Tank.
$8.50

I’m also loving the plethora of light weight racer back tanks.
Great for layering and throwing over a bikini top.
This one in bright coral is calling my name!

Both the micro-print and racerback tanks would look great with these shorts!
Tie-Dye is coming back in a big way…
and I cannot RAVE enough about these cut-offs!
The contrast of turquoise and cream against a pair of tan legs is striking!
These are def a pair of shorts you’ll want to get into every weekend!
$19.80 

Every girl needs a flirty dress in her closet – one for dressing up and one for keeping casual.  Forever 21 has a selection that will make your head spin!  I found this short length purple dress for only $13.50, perfect for a casual afternoon or even spice it up with some accessories for a night on the town! Seriously, $13.50!!!

Another option is this sweet pink pleated chiffon dress!
I don’t know what it is about chiffon, but it makes me feel so girly and giddy inside!
There’s something really romantic about this dress and I would definitely suggest it for any occasion that is calling for romance!
$22.80

And don’t forget about all the great handbags and shoes!  Forever 21 is really stepping it up this season in this department!

Tribal Print is always a good choice, I especially love it on my handbags!
This tribal print tote is perfect and at a cool $24.80, you can’t go wrong!
I can picture myself taking this to a music festival!

One Perfect Dress For Every Wedding!

23 Apr

My mailbox has been packed full of wedding invitations lately and that can only mean one thing, WEDDING SEASON IS HERE!

But, what to wear?  With so many invitations, I see no problem with buying one or two great dresses that you can wear over and over again!  If you take the time to find one or two that you really love, you can save yourself a lot of time and money! And who doesn’t love to save a couple bucks?!?

I think a great place to look for some really great and affordable dresses is Francesca’s!  With the vast array of options and their neatly color-organized racks, you’ll have no problem finding the perfect cut and color for you!  All the bright colors in Francesca’s are perfect for day weddings!

Match Point Dress
Lightweight, fun and flirty in bright coral and hot pink, featuring a key hole back closure and elastic waist .
$38.00

Yellow Ruffles
This short yellow dress is perfect for a sunny day, outdoor wedding.   The flirty ruffle accents across the vibrant yellow are super fun.
$44.00 

Teal Printed Dress
This brightly hued lace dress puts a fun and fresh spin on a classic feminine fabric.
I absolutely love this dress and I’m thinking about getting it for myself!
$48.00

One Shoulder Dress
Much like the ruffled yellow dress this one shoulder dress has a flirty ruffle that runs across the front.
Featured in bright green, this is a must-have!
$44.00

Now, maybe you are looking for an evening dress or maybe your little black dress has seen better days and it’s time for a new one!
I found a great selection of LBD’s at Nordstrom that are unique, gorgeous, and perfect for your closet!

Spring Fragrance Festival and FREE GIFT!

17 Apr

APRIL 20-April 22

Join The Streets at Southpoint Nordstrom this weekend April 20 – April 22 for the Annual Spring Fragrance Festival!
Stop by anytime from 10:00am – 9:00pm to check out the latest and greatest in spring fragrances for Women and Men.
Let the professionals at Nordstrom help you find your signature scent for the season, they helped me find my perfect scent,
Daisy by Marc Jacobs. 

I usually stick to what I know, but the knowledgeable and super friendly staff at Nordstrom pointed me in a new direction.  After a few questions about my style and preferences, I was introduced to the Daisy fragrance and haven’t stopped wearing it since!  They really know what they are doing over there, so don’t be afraid to ask questions and dive right in because you never know what scents are out there waiting for you.  It’s spring time and a new fragrance might just be what puts that extra Springy pep in your step!

So, take advantage of this weekend’s Spring Fragrance Festival and be sure to let me know if you found something new and different for yourself!  And hey, if you do find something you’ll receive an elegant mirrored vase with your qualifying purchase of $150 or more!  That vase sure would come in handy for some fresh, Spring flowers!
