JCrew Sale

While losing weight and getting toned is definitely a wonderful feeling, it can be very hard on the wallet. Just last year I spent more than I’d like to admit on new clothes from some of my favorite stores because none of my current clothes fit. Now, less than a year later, those new clothes are baggy and unbecoming while all my old clothes are suddenly new again.

I’ve decided to donate most of my business clothes to Dress for Success, a wonderful woman’s philanthropy organization which helps provide work clothes for women who can’t afford them otherwise.

Dress for Success

But, when it comes to the rest of my closet, I thought it’d be fun to offer some of the pieces to you all at a discount. Think of it as a blog sale of sorts.

Below you’ll find the pictures, along with the link to the item if it’s still available on the retailer’s website. I’m only posting a few as of now just to see if there is even interest. If you are interested in an item, please leave a comment below. I will do a flat rate shipping of $5 unless you’re located in NYC.

Get Your Good Going Almond Breeze and Lululemon Giveaway

This week has been one of my toughest weeks in a long time. I’m feeling a bit drained after a long work week, my body is feeling it physically as it fights off a cold, my travel season is just ramping up, and there are some other stressors that have me feeling a bit overwhelmed.

It’s during weeks like this that a few positive words of encouragement from friends and family are more than welcome.  Whether it’s a quick text, an email, a hug, or a phone call- a bit of motivation and a reminder that I have a support system is all it takes to turn around a rough week. Luckily, the folks at Almond Breeze think that once the good get’s going, it can’t be stopped!

They have a new campaign which has launched on Facebook, “Get Your Good Going” which allows people to spread the good by saying something nice to a Facebook friend. While doing so they can also enter to win a YEAR’S SUPPLY OF ALMOND BREEZE and a $1,000 gift card to spruce up their kitchen! How cool is that? It reminds me of the movie, Pay It Forward.

As you all know, I buy my Almond Breeze in bulk from Costco since I use it so often! While my favorite way to use Unsweetened Almond Breeze is in my smoothies, it blends perfectly in my morning coffee as well!

After spending over an hour on the phone with my mom the past two days, there was no question in my mind who I owed a thank you after seeing this campaign.

Even though she still lives down in Savannah, Georgia my mom is my best friend. I can call her and talk to her about anything and she is patient and willing to help. Our relationship has definitely evolved over the past few years as I’ve established my life in New York City with Bo but at the end of the day she is my rock. When we’re together, it’s like nothing has changed and when we’re apart I still miss her daily. We read the same books at times just so we can have our own mini book club, we motivate each other to try new things and be better people, and she’s even gone zip lining and started doing yoga this year thanks to my influence! Lord knows, my husband wishes I had half the patience she has!

In order to thank her, Almond Breeze is sending her a prize pack including a $25 Lululemon gift card and 3 Almond Breeze coupons.

But, the fun doesn’t stop with her! I want to let one of you enjoy a prize pack and share one with the person you want to thank.  You can enter two different ways and I’ll choose a winner Sunday, August 12th at 9pm!
