IN THE MOOD TO BE CINDERELLA

Dedar image These sandals would make me feel like Cinderella. They are Bruno Frisoni. Sadly they are just as elusive as Cinderella's missing slipper, but I did find one in black patent and silver, size IT 36/US 5/6, $110 available on TheRealReal Here. Sadly I am Anastasia, my big feet won't fit into them. If yours can and you scoop them up - congratulations Cinderella!...

IN THE MOOD FOR A WELLNESS REBOOT

I started a wellness reboot program with a great group of like minded ladies. We are led by a knowledgeable leader and my fabulous new friend. So far I have quit my chemically processed decaf coffee habit, learned about the benefits of meditation, and have been eating cleaner plus drinking much more water (thanks to this new BPA free infusion water bottle that enables so many delicious naturally flavored water options - this week it's organic pear, honeydew and mint).

I have always started my day the same way as Jennifer Aniston, by washing my face and applying moisturizer/oil plus sunscreen. I have added sipping a cup of...

IN THE MOOD FOR ACTIVEWEAR THAT TRACKS HEART RATE, CALORIES COUNTED, ETC.

pcmag image why smart clothes still need work I've been wondering why there aren't mainstream options for activewear that tracks heart rate, calories counted, steps taken, and real time input about proper or improper form. There is such a thing as a "smart bra". I just haven't heard of anyone actually buying smart clothes not even the "smart bra". Surprisingly, it's fashion (or lack thereof) not the technical aspect holding back this innovation. For an interesting short article about it click Here. I'll keep my ear to the ground and post again when this gets figured out....
