SoxxyAir Makes a Fashion Splash with Gorgeous Trends in Compression Sox Plus a Special 20% Discount

Disclosure:  I will receive a pair of SoxxyAir Kitty Hawk compression socks for sharing this information. As always, my opinions are my own. Powered by BrandBacker.
I play hard, work out hard and unfortunately am hard on my legs and feet. I still insist on looking great everyday in every single way. It has been a challenge to find great looking socks and hosiery that provides some good support. Who wants to look 95 years old when you work so hard to keep fit and eat a healthy diet?  I was excited to hear about SOXXY AIR.  They are a new brand that insists on providing fashion and support for everyone.  This is a company that has created a line of gorgeous, fashionable and supportive footwear for casual and dress.  Soxxy has a whole line of ankle sox, leggings, thigh high sox and compression sox.
SOXXY AIR not only provides hip looks, colors and styles, they also are a charitable brand.  I love that!  SoxxyAir has partnered with five wonderful charities and created some trend conscious new designs.  SoxxyAir is launching via the super popular crowd funding site Indiegogo.  Take a peek at their amazing and fun video and consider making a contribution to this excellent campaign via Indiegogo.  You can support a great cause that is aiming to support your legs!
Soxxy Air is the only stylish compression sock that gives back to charitable causes. Think about it:  you can support a cause AND support your legs. Look great while you are doing it too which makes any contribution to SoxxyAir a totally win-win for everyone. 
   
Soxxy founder, Sarah Stabile is part inventor, entrepreneur and marketer. In 2011, she pulled out her handy glue gun and began drawing X's and O's on the inside top rim of her sox in order to prevent them from slipping. Smart girl...wish I had thought of that! Things progressed quickly to fashionable stripes, spots and metallics in a variety of hip colors.  Appropriate sox for fitness, fashion and fun are now something totally doable now.  Soxxy takes ho-hum hosiery and combines performance and high fashion to bring it all to a new level.  Their unique patented XO Grip holds your socks where you want them all day long. No drooping or yanking. The silicone X’s and O’s on the inside top rim of the socks are your little secret.
Think about how fashionable you can be flying out on your next vacation or business trip while keeping your legs comfy.  Compression sox are the perfect airplane solution to puffy legs and feet. Do you stand or walk around frequently for work?  SoxxyAir compression sox can make your day more fashionable and comfortable as well.  Soxxy even has super hot thigh-high sox which look totally on trend with the latest knee high boots.  Check out the whole line of Soxxy leggings and SoxxyAir compression sox on their website

Fun and Winning Lunch Ideas with Sandwich Thins, Pocket Thins and Bagel Thins {Giveaway}

Disclosure: I received the complimentary products and a gift card in order to purchase ingredients to provide an honest review. As always, my opinions are my own. The coupons for free product, information, and gift card have been provided by Sandwich Thins®, Pocket Thins® and Bagel Thins ®.

We always like something yummy for lunch whether it is a weekday or weekend. I like to mix it up with different breads and toppings.  Sometimes we all just need to get fresh and a little bit more creative with lunch. Who wants to eat the same thing all the time?  It gets boring!!  My little one likes creative tastes and flavors so I am always on the lookout for new recipes and ideas. Often I come up with my own ideas that really work well too.  My best ideas pop into my head when I am driving around on my way to visit a client for work.  It is always great to find some inspiration though.  I was happy to find that there are lots of amazing and yummy lunch ideas (that are also super for moms and dads too!) on the Bagel Thins® site and also on the Weight Watchers® Sandwich Thins® site.  

Sometimes a different style of bread can serve as a inspiration.  Arnold®, Brownberry® and Oroweat® Products know that.  It is wonderful that there are lots of bread options to help inspire all of us including Sandwich Thins, Bagel Thins and Pocket Thins.  They kept the flavor but reduced the calories.  I love that all Arnold®, Brownberry® and Oroweat® Sandwich Thins® products are cholesterol-free foods, containing zero grams of Trans Fat and no (hfcs) high fructose corn syrup.

When I was little I loved grilled cheese sandwiches. We love apples and cheese so when I saw the Orchard Grilled Cheese I knew it was going to be a winner in our house. I wasn't able to find nice pears but I had Granny Smith and Fuji Apples so I used those instead. I used a Cabot low fat cheddar too.  What a yummy combination!





I love that there are a variety of Sandwich Thins too from 100% Whole Wheat, Healthy Multi-grain, Honey Wheat and even Flax + Fiber. 

Another fun option is the Arnold®, Brownberry® and Oroweat® Pocket Thins® Flatbread.  Weight Watchers : 3 PointsPlus Value® and you can choose from Whole Wheat or Healthy Multi-grain.  These are fun to stuff with anything from lean turkey to Mediterranean Tuna. 

You might be surprised to know that Thomas'® Bagel Thins® Bagels
are 110 calories, cholesterol-free, low in fat and contain zero grams of Trans Fat no matter what yummy flavor you choose. From Whole Wheat to Cinnamon Raisin and Everything...you don't have to give up a thing for that chiseled bikini body!
Weight Watchers®: 3 PointsPlus Value® too!

If you are working hard on a more chiseled figure for spring and summer, you can also check out great ideas and recipes that are Weight Watchers approved from  Sandwich Thins and Bagel Thins. Don't forget you can follow both Sandwich Thins and Bagel Thins on Facebook too.

The 500 Hats of a Modern-Day Woman Book Review and Kindle Fire Giveaway

Are you a mom?  Do you work from home or perhaps you work in the corporate arena like I do. Whatever you do, you wear 500 hats just like I do. Maybe our hats are styled a bit differently but we have them. Some hats we store in our pockets or blazers because we yank them out and jam them on all the time. Some are in the back of the closet and we pull them out and struggle to get them on and make them look halfway decent.  Some of those darn hats just slip right on and well, others feel like they are constricting our head like a snake. But we just have to wear them sometimes. 

Whatever which way those hats fit, we must  learn to wear our different hats with grace and beauty.  Yes, grace and beauty.  Some hats the Good Lord has placed in our hat closet and other ones we assigned to ourselves because we thought they just looked great on us. Those choices we made!! Who was thinking at the time? 

By now you realize the hats are a stand-in for the roles we must play in life.  We sometimes have to devise creative ways to fulfill roles in our lives.  Joyce Ellis has done an unbelievable job of sharing her tales about hats that totally translates into real life.  I guarantee you will laugh, chuckle and say, "Yes, yes, me too!"  This book had me in stitches!  It made me feel better about some of my roles that get me frustrated from time to time too.  The key here is acceptance. G-d only gives us what he knows we can manage. 


The author shares her warm words and spiritual beliefs along with some humorous insights into the life of women. I love the illustrations, they are so on target! She has a keen understanding of Biblical knowledge which adds a lovely spiritual element to the book.  She makes it easy to see why some days can be a real chore as you juggle too many hats.  She shares insights on how you can limit some "hat choices" and make your life a little bit easier too.  The book was a real blessing and I really enjoyed it.

In Joyce K. EllisThe 500 Hats of a Modern-Day Woman you’ll find strength, purpose, and perspective to balance your many roles—and gain insight into the roles of women around you.
