What about a new hair color or haircut to welcome 2018? go blonde if you’re brunette and vise versa. Or better yet, be a little bit more daring with blue, fuchsia or green. I haven’t crossed that fence yet but each time I change the intensity of my blonde balayage, I feel like a brand new woman!
Looking for spa-like products sans the high tag? I have recently discovered Simply Scrub organic body scrub and boy I am in love! Their scrubs are 100% organic, natural and chemical-free. Both Rose and Soursop are also vegan (photo below). Rose is made with real rose bud petals avocado oil, sweet almond oil, shea butter, brown sugar, jojoba oil, tea tree oil, coconut oil and organic vitamin E. Soursop is a spikey green fruit commonly found in Southeast Asia, South America and Africa. The scrub is made of soursop leaves, coconut oil, dead sea mineral salt, tea tree oil, brown sugar, jojoba oil, vitamin E, green tea, shea butter and mint leaves. While they are called scrubs, they are very gentle on the skin and the added natural oils help to seal in moisture especially this time of the year.
You know I am all about practicality but how about updating your prescription eyeglasses? when was the last time you had your eye exam? if you have been experiencing blurry vision and frequent headaches, it does not hurt to visit your optometrist or ophthalmologist. Try black frames this time, trust me they look chic!
My last suggestion may sound cliche but really, you need to have an absolute me-time. Away from everyone else. When all you need is a nice cup of coffee, no conversation, just by yourself. Being away from it all helps recharge your mind and body.
What great gift ideas for oneself! I need one of those beautiful handbags!
I love these ideas. I just cut bangs and feel like a new woman.
Those handbags are gorgeous!
I love the burgundy cross body. It reminds me of a Dooney & Burke "shoulder bag" that I had a couple of decades ago that I wish I had kept since it's now a classic. I love your glasses, and the leopard print fabric around your pony tail is such a great look!
Great ideas and the last one is free! Me time is so important.
Looks like a funday
The scrubs look so nice!! Plus who wouldn’t want a new purse!
That rose scrub looks really nice! There's something decadent about rubbing rose petals all over the skin!
I do really need a new handbag. I bought a saxophone a couple of months ago, though, so I might have to wait a while longer!
I really want to get a balayage done! I've never dyed my hair and I think that will be my first step!
I love your choice in bags!
Great recommendations! The holidays can be so stressful.
I save my self shopping for after xmas!
I love changing my hair and I change it all of the time, haha. It's currently an orange-ish red, but I plan to go rose gold in the spring.
I love those vegan leather bags. It's so hard to find high-quality vegan bags!
