2019 NEW YEAR’S INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS FOR A BETTER YOU

2019 NEW YEAR’S INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS FOR A BETTER YOU + THE $500 TARGET GIVEAWAY BEGINS

Once again this year I’ve decided to not share any resolutions and instead set some new intentions and some wellness tips. We all must do what works for us and for me I just end up breaking those a few days or weeks in. So today I share my 2019 New Year’s Intentions & Wellness Tips For A Better You. Not sure about each of you but I am definitely in need of a little detox from my recent trip to the beach. I enjoyed myself but I did fall off the wagon just a bit as far as my healthy eating and drinking goes. I do believe in moderation and I did still workout while on vacation (just obviously not as often as I do when I’m home) but I am ready to get back on my normal healthy track.

All thanks to my supportive followers Street Style Squad I was invited to the rewardStyle Conference for the second year in a row at the Hotel Crescent Court in Dallas, Texas.

It may look like it’s fun and games some of the time but the hours we spend ‘behind the scenes’ would shock you I’m sure.

Another ‘Street Edit’ with good friend Heather Anderson of SoHeather, and fellow Dallas Fashion Blogger featuring Pier 1 Imports.

GRAND HYATT BAHA MAR BAHAMAS REVIEW

GRAND HYATT BAHA MAR BAHAMAS REVIEW +
THE $400 NORDSTROM GIVEAWAY CONTINUES…

I just returned from my Mother/Daughter Senior Spring Break trip from the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar in the Bahamas. If you’re a regular here at SSS I think it’s pretty obvious that I love going to the beach or anywhere that’s warm for that matter. I’m excited to start focusing on my travels more and sharing them with each of you. Today I am happy to say that my five-night, six-day stay with my oldest daughter and her best friends from high school at the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar was a total success. Originally we were going to travel to Cancun. But with some recent happenings in the news we all decided to look into other options since we weren’t going to be traveling with our husbands for this trip. Jamaica, Punta Cana and Costa Rica were close runner-ups but eventually the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar won the majority vote. The Baha Mar Resort is divided into three sections: the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar (where I stayed), the SLS Baha Mar, and the Rosewood Baha Mar will be opening June 2018. Below are the highlights of my trip…

REDUCE WRINKLES AND PROMOTE COLLAGEN WITH THE GLOPRO + A GLOPRO GIVEAWAY 

REDUCE WRINKLES AND PROMOTE COLLAGEN WITH THE GLOPRO + A GLOPRO GIVEAWAY
& THE $400 NORDSTROM GIVEAWAY BEGINS

For the past few months I have been using the new GloPRO Microneedling Regeneration Tool from Beauty BioScience. I must admit after first seeing the GloPRO device for the first time I was a little nervous about microneedling (also called dermarolling) at home. But if you just take one look at Beauty BioScience’s founder Jamie O’Banion you’ll immediately want to do whatever it is that she’s doing. Microneedling from home with the GloPRO has the same anti-aging benefits as the very expensive SkinPen treatment that you can get at your local dermatologist office. The tiny needles that the device has (I promise it doesn’t hurt just a slight tingling sensation) creates tiny microwounds that trigger the body to fill them with collagen while still managing to leave the epidermis intact. The results that I’ve experienced are: less wrinkles, tighter skin and also lighter acne scars or dark spots; since the GloPro is able to penetrate the skin making absorption of skincare products much easier. Plus thru today only use code ‘FASHION’ to receive up to $100 OFF ALL Beauty BioScience GloPRO Products! Simply scroll down to the bottom of this post for all the details on how ONE LUCKY READER WILL WIN A GloPRO + THE $400 NORDSTROM GIVEAWAY BEGINS as well…

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU: INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS | PLUS A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU: INTENTIONS & WELLNESS TIPS | PLUS A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS
WIN A $750 GIFT CARD TO AMAZON

I had a wonderful start to 2018 celebrating with family and dear friends by a bonfire on the beach with way too many fireworks (two extra-large boxes from Costco to be exact, we never thought it would end) and lots of food and drink for all! With all the fun and excitement of the New Year we must also remember that this is a time of reflection on our previous year. What can we work on going forward? What should we try to do more of or less of in 2018? What are some positive ways that we can not only do better for ourselves but for others as well? I’ve decided that this year I am done with resolutions! No more for me. We all must do what works for us and for me I just end up breaking those a few days or weeks in and then I’m done. So this year I have decided to set some intentions instead. I’m thrilled to share today my Intentions, Wellness Tips, and a Few Favorite Things for 2018. Not sure about each of you but I am definitely in need of a little detox from my trip. I enjoyed myself but I did fall off the wagon just a bit as far as my healthy eating and drinking goes. I do believe in moderation and I did still workout while on vacation (just obviously not as often as I do when I’m home) but I am ready to get back on my normal healthy track. You might remember some of my previous wellness posts: STAYING HEALTHY DURING THESE WINTER MONTHSWORKOUT WEAR/ATHLEISURE + WELLNESS TIPS, my daily CRUCIAL FOUR MBREAKFAST SHAKECOUPLES THAT TRAIN TOGETHER and MERRY NEW YEAR TO ALL for more information on what I do and believe in.

What’s better than pinstripes to kick off the fall season? Nothing in my book. For this isn’t your average boring pinstriped blazer.

I knew it would no doubt stand out in the crowd and be a classic that I can wear for years to come!

2017 NEW YORK FASHION WEEK FIRST LOOK

Street Style Squad hits 2017 New York Fashion Week. This is one of my favorite times of year ever since I was a little girl. I remember always watching and being enamored with highlights from all the fashion shows for as long as I can remember. This was my second trip to NYFW, last year being my first as a fashion blogger. I just love traveling with my sweet dallas blogger friends to NYC and meeting so many bloggers while I’m there. We never get much rest during this week and we spend most of our time with meetings, shopping and of course drinks and dinner with all of our blogger friends that are also in town. The highlight of our trip was no doubt the amazing rooftop rewardStyle party on our last night in the big city. You might also remember my posts from last year here, and here. Plus don’t forget to head to the very bottom of the post because one lucky reader will win a $650 gift card to Amazon.

The Woman I Admire Most In The World

The Woman I Admire Most In The World

If you’ve ever met my mom you would understand why she’s the woman I admire most in the world. She truly is such an inspiration and gives of herself each and everyday. In 1962, my mom, Sue Wade, founded Wade College in Dallas, Texas for those students who wanted to join the fashion and merchandising industries. She became interested in fashion at the age of 15 while working for a local department store. Her high school program allowed students to attend school half a day and then work half a day. Keep reading more about my inspirational mother and learn more about my amazing white ruffle eyelet blouse.
