Moveslightly in Lucky Mag March 2013!

If you get a chance, pick up next month's Lucky Magazine on newsstands now and flip to page 140. I am featured along with Grace and Eileen, two awesome bloggers (Eileen is one of my favorites to follow on Twitter), talking about our favorite beauty products. If you've never tried Fresh's Umbrian Clay mask, I really do highly recommend it.

Moveslightly Gift Guide

I wanted to pull together a gift guide and there really isn't anything to tie these items together other than I've tried and tested nearly all of them and can verify their awesomeness. A lot of these items are also super high quality without having to break the bank.

Clockwise from top left:
Feed 5: A cute ornament that gives back
A bracelet made by yours truly for Wittmore
Crazy tasty "wholesome" cookies
The softest lounge pants with a print to show off
Rahua's heavenly shampoo and conditioner
The most comfortable grandpa-style slippers
A gorgeous ring by Asha that is 100% guaranteed to draw compliments
Perfectly dainty earrings
A fun bag in just the right size

Weekend 12.3.12

I've been lucky to be out of town for the past few weekends while on vacation in California, but I'm happy to be back in NYC especially with the holidays in full force. I took my new Pamela Love earrings from Moda Operandi out for a swing and finally got the Anastasia Brow Serum that I've been dying to try. One of the best parts about the city during the holidays are all of the amazing shopping opportunities. This weekend we stopped by The Pop Up Flea to see our Moveslightly Bracelets at Wittmore's station and later the Brooklyn Night Bazaar. Sunday was left for cooking up a delicious family recipe and trimming a very cute, but very small tree.

Into Now: 10.22.12

I've been a little busy lately and less time means less creative inspiration. Thankfully with the internet one never has to search too far. Moda Operandi picked up on one of my favorite trends with their Lulu Frost trunkshow, Revlon has some amazing new polish formulations, Olay sent me a fantastic new day serum that I highly recommend and I have some news that I can finally share. We partnered with a very cool new ecommerce site called Wittmore on an exclusive run of Moveslightly bracelets. The colors are perfect for fall, so enjoy!

If you're not on Pinterest yet, it's time to get on (and follow me at Pinterest.com/ebmonson)! I also found a cool way to view all Pins from a specific website. You can use it as an ego boost like I did above or for a cool way to see what the most popular images are from say, Madewell.com or NYTimes.com.
